Yup…

I’m only slightly ashamed to say that I laughed about that for days, with visions of irate cat ladies sending rude letters to the grocery store HQ…

Reminds me of a grocery ad showing a pet food can with a cute picture of a kitty on it - except they forgot “food” so it ended up saying “Canned Cat — 5 for $6.”

I’m kind of curious whether the SCOTUS effective repeal of Chevron deference will turn around and bite the Trump Maladministration in the ass here. Decisions like this are wide open for lawsuits, and if EPA can’t provide a rational scientific basis for idiocy some judge will likely block this.

Here’s an empathetic puppy pic for you…

We all have right to vote, and it doesn’t have an asterisk requiring GQP-approved paperwork. If these mouth-breathing rock-chewers can’t show an actual problem that their “reforms” would fix, leave it alone.

Another memorable ruling out of West Virginia, where Judge Goodwin — a Clinton appointee — excoriates the treatment of ICE detainees.

F.A.A. Halts All Flights at El Paso Airport for 10 Days

This is EXTREMELY strange…I’ve been in the ATC business for 45 years and other than 9/11 haven’t seen anything like it.

So all we need to do is get someone to introduce the “Lock Up Trump Act?” Who would oppose that?

The secret…

Above zero is too high.

The FBI had to submit an affidavit to the judge to provide the probable cause needed to issue the search warrant. Where is it?

Interesting mental image there…😍🤣

Canada HAS been treating us with the fairness and respect we deserve. If he’d stop being a dick 24/7, they’d likely be nicer to us, too.

As one of my favorite UU ministers says, “Once you convince people they’re going to burn in Hell forever unless they do exactly as you say, you’ve got them right where you want them!”

Woof! Woof!

I’ll always post a gift link if I know it’s needed, but when you have a sub and post an article there’s often no indication that other people can’t see all of it unless someone says so.

We can hope…

Those morons probably think Puerto Ricans should be sent back to their country.

Really? I have a sub so I don’t see that…sounds annoying. The Post started that crap a while back. I have a junk address I use just for that kind of stuff.

Election integrity? Dude, we all want that. Show an actual problem that needs fixing and there will be plenty of support for the fix. MAGA fraud fantasies are not an “election integrity” problem, though. They’re a mental health problem.

Freddy would definitely have something to say today…

Exactly the kind of pointed feedback Trump Chumps need.

Exactly right. Invented “fraud” is what this crap is all about, and using hallucinations to justify “election integrity” laws isn’t justifying anything at all.

Highway 24 in Lafayette (east of Oakland). Apparently it’s an ongoing thing. There’s a comment on Reddit…

Opinion | Public & Private; Mr. Smith Goes to Heaven (Published 1991)

For dog fans, I recently ran across one of my favorite pieces by Anna Quindlen - an obituary for her dog Jason Oliver C. Smith. A fine boy he was…
