I can't express how profoundly I appreciate the outpouring of love for Kate from our online cat family. You've turned me into a blubbering mess. Thank you.

Dear cate friends, this is Domino dade.
I'm so sorry I didn't tell you sooner. I've been dreading breaking the news. I know how much joy she brought to so many. I just wish she could feel the outpouring of love right now.
The gang is with me at my parents'. They like it here

with her D&B card from when she threw herself a birthday party when we were starting to hang out.
2016. 8 years. Forever ago & no time at all.
We did everything together. We shared a life & now she's just gone. I miss her so bad. I want to tell her everything.
I love this. By all means, keep these coming.
On a potentially related note, I had an idea.
So much of the way I'm feeling is that I just want to celebrate Kate. To show the world how great she was.
Then it occurred to me - she has fans around the world. (cont)
This community is the absolute best. So was she, so I would expect nothing less. I'm overwhelmed by all the love (and notifications 😂)

has stayed lit through the afternoon.
Thought this piece of decor fit well since she was a beacon of light to so many.
I wonder - are there enough fans from different countries around the world to make a thing with the message that the whole world loves her?
Each one could do a candle picture. (or something)
I think that would be a really, really, great memorial.
Happy birthday, baby. I miss you so much. I played some skeeball for you. Then I won a bunch of tickets on the Kung Fu Panda game and got myself an actually semi decent prize.
Work continues on the dismantling of our life together
After almost 8 years here there's so much to do you can hardly tell so much has already been done
She's gotten rather adept at darting out the sliding door to the back deck/yard lately. Probably just heard a lot about touching grass and wants to see what all the fuss is about

I really don't know how to say thank you all enough. I guess I'll just keep saying it. I feel like I have an army at my side to celebrate & grieve & commiserate with. Really eases the burden.
Thank you all so, so much for sharing in this with me.
The hurt is because of the love
Digital ones are fine too 🙂
Or you could get creative. If you're an artist you could draw one, for example. Or if you're not an artist. Do whatever beckons to you.

I'm sorry for your previous loss, and that you had to (for lack of a better word) experience another. Kate had been battling mental issues for most of her life that I don't know if she ever let on about to the community.
All hail King President God-Emporer Joseph Robinette Biden, long may his enemies be crushed and driven before him, and long may the lamentations of their women echo in the halls of glory.
Justice Sotomayor's dissent is one of the most terrified and terrifying pieces of judicial writing I've ever encountered—she lists the criminal acts that presidents can now take with immunity and says "the president is now a king above the law."
Just had eight (8) [ATE] ads in a row in my feed
Maybe because I haven't been on much so they got all excited to see me
But then I told them I didn't like them

1. DNS traffic records are lookups and responses. They are not confidential. There's no "infiltrating" going on here. In fact, Joffe's company (Neustar) ran a huge DNS resolver.

A few of Kate's family friends have been coming over like a pack of Tasmanian cleaning devils, been a massive help clearing stuff out, parents and some other friends too

There's a whole spectrum of difference between "don't work worth a shit" and "don't magically fix everything immediately." They absolutely have a measurable effect but the main point is things would be significantly worse without them.

No, it's not. The connections you're being told are there are figments of imagination. You're addicted to fear, and you hunt for it like an addict.

What Mackey allegedly did to interfere with this process — by soliciting voters to cast their ballots via text — amounted to nothing short of vote theft,” said the FBI. “It is illegal behavior and contributes to the erosion of the public’s trust in our electoral processes. ”
JD Vance says Americans without children should “face the consequences and the reality” and not get “nearly the same voice” in democracy
Vance: “Let’s give votes to all children in this country, but let’s give control over those votes to the parents of those children.”
@RipperElse
Thank you. I'd see you guys talking pretty often and I got the same feeling about you two being friends. She didn't have much in the way of actual friends she would talk to regularly so I was glad of that. She definitely was pretty damn cool.

It's really incredible how the things they think are smart and some kind of gotcha just makes them look like a bag of rocks somehow learned how to operate a keyboard

Here's the surrounding context, which is much easier for a person to evaluate for themselves than trying to figure out where that clip is in that hour long video.
@brainnotonyet
Got the transcript, context doesn't help. Can't find any other evidence to support what I repeated.
I'm sleep deprived, I made a very human mistake. I only want the truth. I think I've demonstrated enough good faith. Can I get an apology for jumping down my throat?
