I’m a collection of atomic and molecular matter that presumes to believe it makes up 1/2 of the gestalt entity known as the Counter Esperanto podcast.
“Why do you allow these men who are in power to rob you step by step, openly and in secret, of one domain of your rights after another, until one day nothing, nothing at all will be left but a mechanised state system presided over by criminals and drunks?”
Excellent question. #WhiteRose

Linus loved to play jungle-cat in the summer, but mostly that entailed sleeping under bamboo and ferns

Linus In Memoriam #6
Linus was a master of space. In particular, his ability, for such an average-sized cat, to be able to take up the surface area of a large adult human on a bed, was second-to-none.

One year ago. Linus decided his new favorite spot was on or near the compost bin. Maybe it was putting off heat from all the decay?

Linus In Memoriam #4
Occasionally one would come across Linus standing like this on the dining room table, staring out the window either utterly blank, or lost in thought. He wouldn’t move for several minutes. I think of it as his “Jack Torrance” pose.

In recent months Linus enjoyed sunning himself on my roommate’s filthy car. It retained heat fairly well, and gave him a vantage point to keep an eye on the goings-on in the cul-de-sac, always a chief concern.

Linus had a thing for hoses. More than once I would come upon him cuddling with (or attacking) the garden hose. It was especially enticing if there was water running through it, which to Linus seemed to simulate life.
