I'm terrified of the future. The thought of millions of people dying at borders they aren't allowed to cross--dystopia is here already and science fiction nightmares are coming true.
Meanwhile the dogs are out from under the coffee table but I got a frantic phone call about a cat. The story is that she was seen by various people laying on the pavement and was there all night--supposedly was hit by a car, but she doesn't have any visible injuries. She spent the night at the neighbors' where she ate and was up walking around. Today she is at the sanctuary but not eating, not drinking, not moving. The lady who runs the sanctuary is trying to get her into a vet. She's a skinny little thing and, given the rain and the cold, she might have been hyperthermic and is just recovering. I'm bummed about it.

It seems that backlash against immigrants is a human nature thing that happens everywhere. And also it seems that political parties historically reformist, humane, and focused on public interest will throw someone under the bus to pander to the rightwing.
Meanwhile we are under siege. Horrible, terrifying noises from above. Thunks and bumps and the interminable whine of machinery. The dogs are crouching under the coffee table.
