On the left, this has been Domino’s favorite new snoozing spot for the past couple of weeks. I don’t get it. What’s so special about that exact patch of carpet in front of the sofa? And it’s a pain in the ass, too. We have to be mighty careful these days not to step on a cat that’s quietly taken up residence in front of the sofa while we’re engrossed in NCIS or Restaurant Impossible.

On the right, Inkblot hasn’t changed his snoozing habits a bit. He’s plonked out on the bed upstairs, rolling upside down and looking adorable when the camera approaches. There’s never any danger of stepping on him.

Fact:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and billionaires wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.
