I haven’t been able to write since Reyna passed away. But the kittensqueak has now decided that she will hang out with me during the day, sunning her floof, in order to help. Not on my feet – which is good, because she is big. In D&D terms, she is actually in the Small category, unlike most cats, who are Tiny. She is over 2 feet long. Female Maine Coon cats are much smaller than their male counterparts, but the sites I found claiming they’re just average cat size are I think mistaken.
Also this one site is claiming female Maine Coons are more aloof and require less attention than males. Unless male Maine Coons require as much attention as a human toddler, I have doubts.

England pulled funding for England’s Deaf Women’s Football Team to go to the Deaf World Cup. Now they have to do a GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/dsff2023
(Have I seen any of the English terfs who claim to be oh so concerned about women’s sports say a peep about this? Hah!)

Rowena and Ligeia should be in hate-love, I think
haunted by the spectre of your husband’s brilliant first wife (sapphic)
consumed by the spectre of your husband’s brilliant first wife (sapphic)
hatred and resentment and fascination for your husband’s brilliant first wife (so so so gay)
gay readings of Rebecca are common on the Danvers/Rebecca axis (for the movie, at least, where they take out her being a mother-figure to Rebecca)
but I think this archetype of the First Wife Spectre can be gay for the new wife, too. and should. as often as possible
Yeah, Danvers is very much a mother figure to Rebecca. The gay reading is – do what you like, that’s fine, but. I’m uncomfortable how often the “toxic mother figure” trope is read instead as “lesbian,” for a multitude of reasons.
But Rebecca and Mrs. de Winter? It’s right there! Mrs. de Winter is completely and totally besotted with Rebecca. Taken over by her even. Rebecca is such a Gothic hero type, too. I could say this is my headcanon, but it goes far further than that. I think it’s canon.
