Friday Cat Blogging – 31 December 2010

Fight disinformation: Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily newsletter and follow the news that matters.


I think it’s probably daft to pretend that I’m going to find something worthwhile to blog about today if I just keep staring at the computer long enough, so let’s get straight to Friday Catblogging and call it a year. Unfortunately, even though I’ve had two weeks to get my act together, I haven’t taken any fresh pictures of the furballs lately. So last night at 8:59 I decided instead to treat you all to a bit of cinéma vérité: Inkblot and Domino at snack time. Unfortunately, they didn’t really put on a very good show. Still, vérité is vérité, and this is truly a slice of real life, dramatic qualities be damned. Sometimes life just isn’t very dramatic. But still cute.

And with that, happy New Year, everyone. See you on the other side.

DONALD TRUMP & DEMOCRACY

Mother Jones was founded to do things differently in the aftermath of a political crisis: Watergate. We stand for justice and democracy. We reject false equivalence. We go after, and go deep on, stories others don’t. And we’re a nonprofit newsroom because we knew corporations and billionaires would never fund the journalism we do. Our reporting makes a difference in policies and people’s lives changed.

And we need your support like never before to vigorously fight back against the existential threats American democracy and journalism face. We’re running behind our online fundraising targets and urgently need all hands on deck right now. We can’t afford to come up short—we have no cushion; we leave it all on the field.

Please help with a donation today if you can—even just a few bucks helps. Not ready to donate but interested in our work? Sign up for our Daily newsletter to stay well-informed—and see what makes our people-powered, not profit-driven, journalism special.
