Caturday. Already.

My winner of this week’s headline contest:

The Washington State Senate passed a sweeping law on Thursday that permits juveniles to undergo transgender surgery without parental consent.

Quick update: I’ve been out of service this week due to an “unexpected” hospital stay. No, neither of the Big Cs, but norovirus…with complications of course: ischemic colitis. I’ll spare you the gory details but I am home now recuperating. I’m enjoying the last of the beautiful weather we’ve had all week while I was squirreled away in a windowless ED room (no private rooms available and I was considered too contagious for anything else.) I received some beautiful flowers from the MOTI just after I got home and that made my whole week. So thanks for that! And now I have to run off to get more blood sucked, have a good Caturday.

Muttday Thought Of the Day

The Open Thread Monday Thought Of the Day:

 

I’m certain you are more than capable of identifying your own human examples.

Easter 2023

And he said unto them, Be not amazed: you seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified: he is risen;

He is not here: behold the place where they laid him.

And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you. - Mark 16:6

‘I am the resurrection, and the life: He that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.’

And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? — John 11: 25-26

Christians around the world gather today on this most holy of Christian holidays to celebrate with joy the miracle of the Resurrection and the promise of eternal salvation. And to our Jewish friends celebrating the Exodus and Passover: Shalom aleichem.  For everyone else, enjoy this beautiful, joyful, hopeful spring day to rest, reflect and renew. The old world will pick up and continue on its way tomorrow as, God willing, we shall too.

May everyone enjoy this glorious day regardless of your religion, sugar tolerance or the weather. And please, enjoy your chocolate bunnies. Just beware of the trans-rabbits, I hear they bite back.

This poor bunny is confused on so many levels. Sad.

With any luck he could become the face of Lindt’s white chocolate bunnies.
