Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

’Where will you hide, Roberts, the laws all being flat?’

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

SCOTUS: It’s not “bribery” unless it comes from the Bribery region of France. Otherwise, it’s merely “sparkling malfeasance”.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

All hail the time of the bunny!

The fight for our country is always worth it. ~Kamala Harris

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

Since we are repeating ourselves, let me just say fuck that.

Just got back from the vet with Tunch, and boy was that fun.

Tunch, it turns out, does not like rectal thermometers.

I just watched my normally docile cat turn into a snarling, hissing, growling beast straight out of Stephen King’s Pet Cemetary.

Bastard even bit me (and the doctor, and the attendant).

My response- take him home and give him tuna. Man do these animals have us wrapped around their damned fingers.

    Tunch, it turns out, does not like rectal thermometers.

    I think the world’s only creature that does was just acquitted yesterday of some major, related charges.

    Cordially…

    As owner and slave to 4 cats, it’s like this: I serve entirely at their pleasure.

    Somehow they are able to employ their walnut-sized brains to deciphering, and figuring out how manipulate, just about every aspect of my behavior.

    I have two cats. The only reason they haven’t taken over the house is because I also have a pitbull.

    My vet uses those electronic thermometers. It’s still an anal probe, but only takes half a minute. Doggies and kitties rejoice; and their humans do, too.

    John, how did babysitting your sister’s critters work out? At last report, all was excursions and alarums. Were you able to sequester everyone away from everyone else?

    It was an absolute disaster, and Tunch got fleas from my sisters dog and worms from the damned fleas (when cats groom themselves, they eat the fleas andflea dirt and the fleas carrying the worm).

    Now I have to fleabomb the house.

    And Tunch is still giving me dirty looks.

    And I’ll bet his farts smell like tuna, too.

    Our tabby decided to quietly starve herself when we switched her dry food to something more appropriate for a cat in her golden years. Once we noticed that she was turning into Skeletor, we whisked her off to an alarmed vet who confirmed that she had lost almost three pounds. We were advised to feed her a can of wet food each day until she gained weight, then to try to switch her to geriatric food again.

    Anyone want to make bets right now how this is going to turn out?
