Today is your Loki Day!
I used to worry about the brown spots on Loki's nose, his toes, his gums, etc. But the vet said it's just freckles, which makes sense b/c he's basically a redhead and redheads have freckles.

I have no confidence in the American people. Here's why:
The first antifascists fought in the Spanish Civil War, as ugly and brutal as any war in history. Brave people, the republicans, George Orwell fought alongside them. Homage to Catalonia.
The Spanish Civil War was the warmup exercise for WW2.
The idealism, then the infighting , the Russian-backed communists war on the POUM. Amazing depictions of men at war.
The good guys lost.

Open letter from 10 former US university presidents or chancellors:
washingtonpost.com/opinions/20…
US higher education "is under attack. Because of the financial consequences from federal stop-work orders, some universities…have curtailed, or even stopped, admitting graduate and professional students. This is not a matter of cutting waste or curbing frivolous research. These cuts will translate into shortages of trained doctors and nurses who provide critical care; engineers who keep bridges, utilities and water supplies safe; and scientists who discover drugs and therapies. Federal research funding for universities is not a subsidy. Under previous administrations, it was a competitive process through which taxpayers invest in discovery and innovation. In a recent world ranking of the top 50 universities influencing patented inventions, U.S. universities held 30 of the top 50 spots and Harvard was No. 1. This research enterprise helped build the world’s most powerful economy. It is a bargain by any measure."

Former US ambassador to Ukraine says she resigned because of Trump's foreign policy.
"Unfortunately, the policy since the beginning of the Trump administration has been to put pressure on the victim, Ukraine, rather than on the aggressor, Russia," Brink said.
