Even though we’ve already decided that everyone loves cats, would they still be as lovable if they were stealing your shit? Dusty—a cat from San Mateo, California—is known around his neighborhood as “Klepto” after he stole over 75 items from neighbors, including bathing suit bottoms. It’s not a particularly shocking story. Animals take stuff all the time, but this ABC News clip is so hilariously earnest in its reporting, it’s worth the viewing. 
Neighborhood Cat Becomes Known as A Burgular, Incites Fear

Trace the scars life has left you. It will remind you that at one point, you fought for something. You believed.
“You are the only person who gets to decide if you are happy or not—do not put your happiness into the hands of other people. Do not make it contingent on their acceptance of you or their feelings for you. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter if someone dislikes you or if someone doesn’t want to be with you. All that matters is that you are happy with the person you are becoming. All that matters is that you like yourself, that you are proud of what you are putting out into the world. You are in charge of your joy, of your worth. You get to be your own validation. Please don’t ever forget that.” — Bianca Sparacino
