Yes, social media suffered a huge (and deserved) loss in court this week, and we're glad. But we cats wouldn't stay on platforms like Bluesky if they didn't give us a laugh. And sometimes it can even make us grin about a story that we'd seen and found disgusting and despicable.
Exhibit A: the news that Benedict Donald intends to add his signature to US currency, supposedly in honor of the nation's 250th birthday in July. What a bunch of horse hockey. There's no law prohibiting it — but once again, Trump is flouting a 165-year tradition, just to see if he can get away with it (he will) and to assuage his ever-fragile ego. For our part, if we ever received a bill with Trump's signature on it, we'd go to the bank and insist on exchanging it.
It is all sickening, Hitlerian idolatry, and we can't wait to get out of this nightmarish Trumpy timeline we all inhabit. In the meantime, Canada has ridden to our rescue, with this less-than-respectful riff on their own colorful currency. Wilfrid Laurier makes a good-looking Vulcan, doesn't he? Take inspiration from their creativity! We cats PURR.
