Big, Fat fun on a Monday morning.

No refunds, but good for the replacement Kid Rock residency.

We were supposed to get her weeks ago, but for reasons ... she's a Christmas Kitty! Zelda arrived on Christmas Eve.

Sssssssssmokin'

OK, that's funny. Or sad ... no, let's go with funny.

Note that there are 900 "thumbs ups" and zero "thumbs downs"

1500 pardons, meet $50K signing bonuses

Just keep scrolling. Works every time.

Everybody with half a brain knows this, which is why the Trumpsketeers started lying about it immediately.

It's a tell. He lies constantly, fluently, and sometimes unwittingly, but when he says "fake news" ... he knows it's a lie.

When he says "fake news" even he knows it's a lie. It's a tell.

So far I haven't heard anyone mention the impact of tons of drugs in the ocean. Not to mention human remains, fuel oil, and detritus from explosives and blown-up boats. Killing instead of catching them is lazy, at minimum, and ... messy. Destroying evidence is the objective, screw the environment.

Apparently these cognitive tests don't include basic math.

TONIGHT ... escape with the blues! "Mary Ellen Lykins is one of those vocalists who give you goosebumps! Add to that the tight arrangements and hot saxophone and it's amazing all around." - C.A. Clayton, Telluride Jazz Fest "One of my favorite bands!" -Janice Cleven Gage, Washington Blues Society

He'd be calling in to faux news every ten minutes. Let them deal with it.

I have an idea that maybe even republicans could get behind at this point: take away his phone. Tell him the smartphones have all been hacked by antifa transgenders. No computers, either; Jewish space-laser satellite hackers. "Sorry sir, you'll have to use the landline."

It feels strange to memorialize on BlueSky. Perhaps it's because after having done the same for pets and dear friends on Facebook, it was all taken away without notice or explanation. A stolen scrapbook. Little digital footprints in the sand, waiting for the next tide to erase them.

We had to say goodbye to our dear friend Senta today. She was only with us for 6 years or so, poor girl. Sweet sweet kitty.

Aren't these tariffs the largest tax increase in American history? Why isn't anyone saying that? If they're not, they're darn close, and it's closer to the truth that anything they're saying.

Germany: Nobody does Octoberfest like us.
China: Hold my beer hat.

It's brilliantly evil for a president to pardon criminals, creating instant loyalists. I'm guessing a lot of J6ers (who may have trouble getting real jobs) are now ICE agents, with $50K signing bonuses as reimbursement for the time they spent in jail, taking cruelty cues from the criminal-in-chief.

How much do you want to bet he demands the poor guy apologize for ruining his photo-op?

... with visions of sandwiches bouncing off his chest,
he laid his head down for a flatulent rest.

We give a middle finger to every house we drive by that STILL has a trump sign out front. You gotta practice self-care in these trying times.

Also a reminder of pandemics past. Despite ignorant leadership, the deep state (which actually knows how things work) was still relatively intact. The government they have since created/destroyed is far less equipped for another crisis.

From the Quantum Mechanic's Cookbook

Ol' 47 he chasin' me,
ICE ICE Baby wanna run me through.
Gravy Seal got an eye on me,
But I got a hoagie for you.
Yeah man, this sub's for you,
And I say ...
I threw the sandwich,
But I did not throw the bag-o-chips.

ICE impersonators on the rise: Arrests made as authorities issue national warning | CNN Authorities in three states have made arrests in connection with individuals impersonating Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers, as tensions rise amid a nationwide immigration crackdown.

Encouraging, but I have questions about actual ICE "agents," too. Who's monitoring their activities? Do all the people they kidnap actually make to an ICE facility? If not, how would anybody know?

With ICE getting a 10x funding increase to hire more racist thugs, and social welfare programs getting slashed, more people will die on the streets due to either poverty or brutality. Or both. I wouldn't put it past the cruel sob to specify raids on 5th Avenues, just so he could say I told you so.
