Unidos por la dignidad de los animales

Este blog nace con la finalidad de servir de unión a todas las personas que prestan su voz a los más débiles, a los olvidados por la sociedad: a los animales. Desbordada por todos los avisos de solicitud de ayuda, de animales maltratados/y abandonados que llegan hasta mí po diferentes medios, quiero intentar crear un espacio en el que recoger todos y cada unos de los casos e invitar a todo aquél que pueda a colaborar en su difusión.

Intento crear una red de cooperación, entre asociaciones protectoras, ONGs, veterinarios y estudiantes, médicos, juristas, periodistas, profesores, gente solidaria de cualquier categoría y profesión que sean sensibles y consciente de lo valioso que es el respeto hacia toda forma de vida y la necesidad de su protección.

Así, cualquier ayuda, sugerencia, queja, nos es bien recibida. Me gustaría poner enlaces a otros sitios web y que otros lo pongan de este sitio. Ójala entre todo y aprovechando las posibilidades que nos ofrece la red (webs, redes sociales, medios digitales), logramos avanzar en el largo y duro camino hacia la meta que es la conscienciación por parte de la sociedad de que los animales no tienen que "gustarte o no", no son una afición. Hay que respetarlos, siempre, porque ellos se lo merecen.

Colabora con nosotros, DIFUNDE, pon un enlace, agréganos, participa, comenta, apórtanos información útil, sugiérenos soluciones y aporta tu granito de arena. Recuerda que granito a grano vamos sumando.

Para cualquier sugerencia: terry-mrincn@hotmail.com

GRACIAS!!!

Colaborar no te hace daño

Si en licor gastas hasta 150 Bs. (y te hace daño) (en una sola sentada)??? Si en una hamburguesa gastas 35 Bs. (y te hace daño) (mínimo por persona)?? Si en un cine gastas 20 Bs. (solo en la entrada)?? Si en una camisa gastas 120 Bs. (teniendo varias)?? Si en cigarro gastas ufffff (y te hace tanto daño)?? Si en entradas de las rumbas gastas desde 50 Bs. En adelante??Y así con la mayoría de las cosas en nuestra vida…………………….……
¿¿¿POR QUE NO NOS AYUDAS CON LA ALIMENTACIÓN DE LOS PELUDOS QUE SI LO NECESITAN ???
¿¿CUANTAS VECES HAS VISTO QUE LA BARRIGUITA DE ALGÚN PELUDO SE LE LLENA DICIÉNDOLE??? Ójala algún día dejen de maltratar animales, qué mala es la gente, que cuando va a cambiar el mundo, etc. etc. (créanme que si fuera así grabara mensajes y se las pusiera en todos los refugios a todo volumen hasta que se quemaran las cornetas)El cambio o el continuo maltrato al universo (y todo lo que lo compone) esta en nuestras manos en nuestros aportes, en nuestras verdaderas ayudas, etc., etc..
YA QUE MUCHOS NO PUEDEN COLABORAR ADOPTANDO (aunque muchos prefieren adoptar solo cuando el peludo es de raza) pues ayudemos colaborando con su comida, hagamos algo por nuestro entorno y por nosotros mismos, ayudemos al que mas lo necesita, al que es realmente inocente al venir al mundo, al más indefenso, al más capaz de ser fiel, al verdadero amigo.
SI BIEN SE DICE QUE EL HOMBRE NO SOBREVIVE A FUERZA DE PAN, ES MUY JUSTO DECIR QUE UN PELUDO NO SOBREVIVE A FUERZA DE PALABRAS.
Puedes colaborar de muchas formas: adoptando, acogiendo, difundiendo, asistiendo a una protectora y regalándoles tu tiempo y tu cariño, entregándoles algún objeto que ya no utilices y que a ellos pueda serles útil, entregando comida, apartando una huchita con ahorritos (no es necesario que sea mucho) para ellos. Pero ni siquiera te pedimos dinero, nos valen los alimentos, las ropitas, juguetes y medicinas que puedas aportarnos.
Muchas gracias!!

Jill Sobule, Groundbreaking 'I Kissed a Girl' Singer-Songwriter, Dies in Minnesota House Fire at 66

WOODBURY, Minn. – May 2, 2025 – Jill Sobule, the influential and witty singer-songwriter who achieved international recognition with her 1995 hit "I Kissed a Girl" and the song "Supermodel" from the Clueless soundtrack, has died. Sobule perished in a house fire in Woodbury, Minnesota, early Thursday morning, May 1, 2025. She was 66 years old.

Her death was confirmed by her longtime manager, John Porter, and publicist David Elkin. Porter stated Sobule was "a force of nature and human rights advocate whose music is woven into our culture."

The Woodbury Public Safety Department reported that police and fire units responded to a call about a house fire on Pinehurst Road around 5:30 a.m. on Thursday. Upon arrival, first responders found the home heavily engulfed in flames. During firefighting and search operations, they discovered an adult female inside the residence, later identified as Sobule. She was pronounced deceased at the scene.

The specific cause of the fire remains under investigation by the Woodbury Public Safety Department and the Minnesota State Fire Marshal Division. The Ramsey County Medical Examiner's office will determine the official cause of death. Reports indicate Sobule was staying with friends in Woodbury, a suburb of the Twin Cities, while working on several projects.

Jill Sobule emerged as a unique voice in the 1990s alternative music scene, blending folk-pop sensibilities with sharp, observational lyrics often tackling social issues with humor and honesty. Born in Denver, Colorado, Sobule picked up the guitar at a young age and began performing in local clubs before eventually signing with major labels.

Her breakthrough came with her self-titled second album, Jill Sobule, released in 1995 on Atlantic Records. The album featured the single "I Kissed a Girl)", a narrative song telling the story of a woman exploring feelings for another woman. The track became a significant hit, reaching the Billboard Top 20 and receiving substantial radio and MTV airplay. Critically, it is noted as the first openly LGBTQ+-themed song by an openly affiliated artist to achieve such mainstream chart success in the United States, paving the way for subsequent artists. Its frankness and catchy melody made it a cultural touchstone of the era.

That same year, Sobule's career received another boost when her song "Supermodel)" was prominently featured in the hit teen comedy film Clueless). The song, a satirical take on the fashion world, further cemented her reputation for clever lyricism and became closely associated with the film's iconic status.

Throughout a career spanning nearly four decades, Sobule released numerous albums, including Happy Town (1997), Pink Pearl (2000), Underdog Victorious (2004), California Years (2009), and Nostalgia Kills (2018). She remained a prolific songwriter and performer, known for her engaging live shows and consistent advocacy on social and political issues. Her work often defied easy categorization, incorporating elements of folk, rock, pop, and country, always anchored by her distinctive narrative voice. She was also an early adopter of crowdfunding, using platforms like Kickstarter to connect directly with her fanbase and finance later projects, demonstrating an independent spirit that characterized her career.

Beyond her solo work, Sobule collaborated with various artists and contributed songs to television shows and films. She was actively involved in theater, co-writing the musical F** 7th Grade*. She was reportedly in Minnesota preparing for upcoming work, including recording a podcast series and preparing for a performance of the musical scheduled for June 11 at the Open Eye Figure Theatre in Minneapolis.

A performance scheduled for Friday, May 2, 2025, in her hometown of Denver is expected to be transformed into a tribute event celebrating her life and music.

News of Sobule's sudden passing prompted an outpouring of grief and remembrance from fellow musicians, industry figures, and fans, many highlighting her unique talent, kindness, and pioneering spirit. Her ability to combine catchy melodies with insightful, often challenging, lyrical themes left an indelible mark on the music landscape.

Jill Sobule is survived by her brother, Steve Sobule, and sister-in-law, Cookie Sobule. Details regarding memorial services have not yet been announced.

The investigation into the house fire is ongoing. Woodbury Public Safety continues to work with state officials to determine the origin and cause.

As reported by various news outlets:

Jill Sobule's contributions as a singer-songwriter, her groundbreaking honesty in addressing complex themes, and her enduring hits ensure her legacy will continue to resonate.
