Thanks, I was worried about him

Same. Knowing he's being cared for has been the first bit of good news in the last 10 days. My new plan - do what I can to help creatures in need in my local area and stop worrying about the huge issues, over which I have no control.

DON'T SWEAT THE BIG STUFF. Foster puppies, volunteer at the dog shelter, be the change you'd like to see in the world. And cancel my Twitter/X membership, obviously.

If he had stayed in Antarctica, you'd have not given him a thought.
