Aloysius O’Hare lives at Outwoods Primary School, gets cuddles from the little people, and naps on the floor when patrolling. I chipped in for his second comfy bed. He’s over 75% funded, so please help get him to 40 winks via the GoFundMe link above. gofund.me/bb9f436d9

President Jimmy Carter’s legacy lives on among the stars. In 1977, the then-president penned this three-paragraph letter that was included with my Golden Records, a message cast into the cosmos.

My friends @themayhew have shared with me the shocking statistic that black cats take twice as long to be adopted as other cats. If you're considering providing a home to a cat please think about that when you make your choice 🐈‍⬛ #BlackCatFriday
Black cats take twice as long to be adopted. Doesn’t sound fair? That’s because it isn’t. 💔 So this #BlackCatFriday, forget the latest tech deals and consider something more fulfilling.... like adopting a black cat. 🥰🙌 👀 themayhew.org/blackcatfriday Big purrs for @havaslondon

His father, a failed playboy and a small, venal man, came to rule brutally; the SAVAK, his notorious secret police, tortured and killed countless dissenters. Children were encouraged to inform on their parents.

The ‘79 Revolution was/is for many an outrageous failure, but it was not a coup: it was an astonishing uprising that represented the collective will of an aggrieved, oppressed people.

We must not go back! Whenever this man trends or reenters the news cycle, I become physically ill, just as, in boyhood, I used to cry and panic whenever Khomeini appeared on television.

The Great Powers put his grandfather on the (stolen) Peacock Throne because he could shoot a Maxim machine gun. They then ousted him for being a Nazi sympathizer.

”When my class convenes, my pupils will find me composed and prepared to reveal to them the succession of the Stuarts. And on Sunday, I will go to Cramond to visit Mr. Lowther. We are accustomed, bachelor and spinster, to spend our Sundays together…” #MaggieSmith #crèmedelacrème
