Dream

A fascinating dream. Ash apparently had kittens, two of them, which seems to be the litter-limit for the small girl. Apparently, her spaying didn't completely take. This was stressful. I really don't want any more cats. And we obviously need to do something about Ash's regained fertility, not to mention fixing the new kittens. But I was pleased to see that these were at least lovelier kittens: white ones. It takes me a little while to realize that they probably are not kittens at all. They are clearly more like puppies! Beautiful, playful Eskimo puppies. As if Bo and Princess are reborn.

Trump

I have been nervous about checking the TV and cable news, but that is one blurb I did not expect to see: from the White House, "No", the president has not thought about stepping down. It has been a big couple of days. Special Counsel Mueller raided the offices of Trump's personal attorney, and Trump went ballistic, calling it an act against the state. We have long dreaded the news that Trump will fire Mueller, but that catastrophe now seems most imminent.

Gallows Humor

Frances Fukuyama tweeted, "The EU needs to wake up to what's happening in Hungary." Which has also seen a rise in fascism.

Jeet said, "Wait, I thought history was over and our primary problem now is boredom."
