It’s crazy how relieved I am to have the late night shows back - Meyers, Colbert and Kimmel. They are so helpful in clarifying all the madness. I can see why Trump hates them.

I like Chicago, my cat, other people’s dogs, bourbon, Star Trek and my family. The order of above shifts.

I remember a quite sweet episode of The Jeffersons where George accepted his old army buddy as she truly was.

And Democratic Party leaders still can’t stand up to this administration?! Our rights are on the line and all our party leaders offer us is silence.
I genuinely needed this. Epic

Why this clown keeps getting asked his opinion is beyond me

Do you. It’s a deeply weird thing to care about.

Happy #Caturday from TaxiCat and his big, worried eyes. He’s not actually worried. His face just goes like that. He is unaware of the dumbass dorky incel dweebs, the absolute fucken chodes, the worlds most mediocre white men wrecking our democracy. Jealous.
