Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

“I never thought they’d lock HIM up,” sobbed a distraught member of the Lock Her Up Party.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

A consequence of cucumbers

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

White supremacy is terrorism.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

Second rate reporter says what?

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

I was promised a recession.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Let’s finish the job.

Prediction: the GOP will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

In my day, never was longer.

Apparently while I was winning twitter and playing warcrack there was a thunderstorm, and I forgot about someone:

He is covered from head to toe in filth, soaking wet, chirping up a storm. I can’t decide whether to keep saying “Where have you been Tunch” in a fake concerned voice or to towel him off.

Tonight may be the night he cuts me good. But I can’t stop laughing.

    I’ve seen that look before, and have the scars to prove it. Hope you like tetanus shots.

    Video? Please? I want to hear the chirps and the laughter and, maybe, the screams of pain. (I’m up late for the second time this week, and the nth time this month, finishing off the project from hell that I badly, badly underestimated. I think I stopped getting paid for it around May. And did I mention I have a day job, too, for the next couple of months?)

    Please, John, take your life in your hands and deliver me some video. Please? #does anime eyes#

    The day we picked up the moving van four weeks ago, Romana slit me open in about 6 different places when I was trying to get her into the sfe room. Still have signs of it in a couple of places. I do not envy you the scars you’re likely to have tomorrow.

    Tunch actually looks a little slimmer than usual in the second pic. Has his new habit of wandering worked off a little of that comfort chub?

    Oh cut the crap. He’s just a stupid fucking cat and you’re just a stupid fucking blogger. What on earth is all the fuss about? Everybody back to their bunks.

    Psst! John! “Totes” is girl for “banging/ossum/cool”, or, more literally, “totally”. It’s colour-neutral. You’re welcome.

    Fat angry wet cats are the essence of comedy.

    The pissed off looks on their faces as you giggle at them are a huge bonus.

    For extra laughs, grab a big towel and “kindly” dry them off. They “love” that.

    I think John should call his father and ask him to hold the video camera. John can then critique his cinematography.

    Oh. Mah. Gah. Tunchie! Cole, it was really nice knowing you. All hail King Tunch!

    P.S. Twitter really is your medium, Cole. You’ve blossomed like a butterfly on it!

    @Yutsano: I’ve been chortling over Cole’s twits all night on and off. These pics are priceless. How you be?

    well obviously he’s just now returned from Waukesha Co, Wis after voting for Pasch……he was busy twining between Ms. Nicklaus’ legs and that delayed the vote tally.

    @asiangrrlMN: I’m guessing he put out a Twitter alert before I could drop an e-mail. Still not signing up, but at least the deed got done.

    I’m all right. Sort of mixed bag about WI but even two flips is fucking amazing.

    Dang, the Tunch looks grumpy.

    Off topic, sorry. But the Guardian liveblog mentions this video from the London riots, which shows a victim of assault being robbed — a Malaysian student, Mohammad Asyraf Raziq Rosli, who got set upon while going out to buy food. As one guy helps him to his feet, another coolly walks up behind him and steals from his backpack.

    I feel the same way. But I am entertaining myself with faint hope that one or two GOP State Senators will be caught in a very compromising position, or arrested for DUI.

    @Anya: Also too: Pausch is not laying down and playing dead. This sucker is going to court. Which could leave the Senate a tie. Which for right now is just as good a result.

    I dunno. I think The Tunchster looks kinda pleased with himself. Either he had a good time outside, rain or no rain, or he left a “little gift” for Daddy in one of Daddy’s shoes.

    Does he go outside regularly now? Since you fenced in the yard?

    @Amir Khalid: Food comes wrapped in plastic and comes in a black square? Really? I’ve seen this vid over and over, and I’m gonna go out on a limb and say the kid that got robbed had done a little of his own earlier.

    What got took from da backpack, sure looked “new” to me like something you’d “buy” in a shop. The thug what took it tossed the clear plastic wrapping as he strolled off, dinnhe? Who carries shit wrapped in plastic in their backpacks, eh? Wasn’t a fuckin’ samawhich, was it?*

    No honor among thieves and all that, amirite?

    Always be cognizant that the narrative does NOT reflect the reality. Fucked-up-shit is fucked-up. Humans suck, etc.

    You ever think of renting Tunch’s sides out for advertising? I think GOODYEAR would fit quite nicely!

    Has anybody had a normal dream?

    A dream, where you wake up and think the dream wasn’t weird at all.

    Maybe recurring dreams could sort of fit into this, but having the same sort of dream over and over again is a bit strange from the get go.

    @gene108:

    i don’t know if its a normal dream, or the lamest nightmare ever, but i had a dream i was pulling all sorts of large brown envelops from my overfull mail box, and it kept filling back up with more, and the arm i was loading them onto was getting very tired….then i woke up.

    His tail is in the air in all four photos. He may be wet, but he’s happy.

    I agree on the can of toona. Open it. Dispense it. Forget about towling him off. Cats are self-cleaning. Even Tunch. (Eventually)

    I don’t understand twitter at all.

    But then I don’t understand the texting urge.

    I am officially old as dirt.

    I agree with you and harlana. He’s happy and proud of himself for having had another “wild” experience. What a sweetie.

    The Worst Person In the World

    Nationally known blogger, on yet another in a series of benders, drunkenly Twits for hours while playing a game designed for ten year olds. Meanwhile, his cat is trapped outside in the raging maelstrom.

    This won’t play well in the MSM.

    @Daddy Warbucks: Generally the tail standing straight up (without the hair being bushed out) indicates a ‘good mood’.

    At least with my cats it does. Tunch could be doing that just to fool John into letting his guard down, wouldn’t discount that possibility.

    He looks happy. Maybe he found the rain refreshing. Or more like, he knows John feels guilty and is working it for treats. I just love his red tail.

    @ThresherK:

    Narrowed eyes is cat body language for happy. Or “I trust you”. Wide open eyes is the opposite. Strangely, in dogs it is the opposite way around*.

    That’s what I thought also.
    But actual weight info would help us decide.
    I can’t remember Cole ever mentioning Tunch’s weigh-in number.

    Posssibly he’s limited by still using a 16 bit machine…
