It's too bad it's only Thursday, and there's another day left in this terrible week. To keep our spirits up, we cats went looking for some cheer-inducing news. Guess what — we found some! Here you go:
A very smart young man came up with a diabolically wonderful way to spam Texas's vile new "turn-in-your-neighbor-who-wants-an-abortion" website, and he shared instructions on Tik-Tok while eating French fries. People flooded the site with fake data and, um, "Shrek porn." Those crazy kids!
(Another note on SCOTUS and the Texas law: Gorsuch, Alito, Thomas, Barrett and Biff have just put reproductive rights squarely on the ballot in 2022. This is not something Republicans wanted. Remember that phrase about awakening a sleeping giant.)
The Robert E. Lee statue in Richmond, Virginia, is coming down.
The furry and horned "QAnon Shaman" will plead guilty to a passel of felonies (including obstruction and civil disorder) in DC court tomorrow. We're seeing reports that he will also denounce his former Q-y beliefs (and maybe even Benedict Donald). Stay tuned.
And here's the best ever: Right-wing nutcase Candace Owens made an appointment at an Aspen, Colorado, health center for a COVID-19 test. The appointment was promptly canceled. "I've just learned of this testing request, and as the owner of this business am going to refuse this booking and deny service," the clinic owner wrote in a terse email. "We cannot support anyone who has proactively worked to make this pandemic worse by spreading misinformation, politicizing and DISCOURAGING the wearing of masks, and actively dissuading people from receiving lifesaving vaccinations."
Maybe we cats should go to this clinic for our next test — even with a trip to Colorado, they're sure to be faster than our local CVS! In the meantime, these stories make us PURR.
