Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

He really is that stupid.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

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

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

“Squeaker” McCarthy

After roe, women are no longer free.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

Don’t expect peaches from an apple tree.

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

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

Bedtime potty and treats:

treats

All I have to do is yell treats and all three come running, and Steve bitches up a storm. Normally, they are all at my feet, but Rosie is a JRT and JUST FUCKING KNOWS I AM TRYING TO TAKE A PICTURE, but since I DID NOT ASK PERMISSION, she runs and hides every time I grab the iPhone or camera. It was all I could do to get her into this picture. So sick and tired of being outsmarted by my pets.

Here is Steve with Lily post-treat watching some boob tube with me:

posttreatlounging

Technically, this is pre-treat, but they are doing the same thing post-treat, and I left the camera in the other room. Such good pets. Even god damned Rosie.

    All three of them in one frame! Lily looks so different from that scared little thing you adopted. Sitting on your lap with Steve! Yay!

    Makes me happy, thank you.

    May I suggest some interior design therapy? Your pad looks straight out of Levitz, circa 1985.

    Nice to see the piglets; now if you can just get a decent camera. Maybe classes on it’s use as well.

    Those pics are cute overload. Flat out adorable.

    @Suzanne:

    He’s single, give him a break. Bacheloritis can lead to really bad things but at least it is a curable disease. :)

    Now that’s what I am talking about, Dr. Doolittle! We loves seeing all the pets in a single pic!

    In that second picture Steve is like, “Dude, seriously, we’re going to watch this garbage?” A month ago he was on the street, now he’s a TV critic.

    ‘Treats’ used to be the absolute favorite word in my house until I got new cat Edward. He doesn’t associate the word with anything, although he knows by my actions that food is about to be served. My old cat Halley used to love the word, but she doesn’t want to be anywhere near Edward so she doesn’t come into the kitchen when I say ‘treats!’. I kind of miss the way the house would get happier just by saying the word.

    Question: has all the hair come back on Steve’s back?

    Is that a heater thingy? It’s August. If it’s an air cleaner you can just open the windows.

    John:

    You love Rosie for the same reason you love your cats. You know she loves you dearly, but she constantly wants to remind you she’s her own dog, and if it occasionally takes being perverse to prove it, so be it. .

    I think Steve thinks his whiskers put him above the girls, and, frankly, with whiskers like his I can see why he feels that way.

    ya know what. we need to be nice to each other.

    I’m a dick sometimes, and I gotta stop.

    just saying.

    Maybe I am just projecting a bit, but Rosie – who was the burr on your socks after Tunch died, – seems to be feeling a bit left out after the new feline overlord moved in. Give that girl a scritch and a snuggle for me.

    I like Steve’s universal cat-WTF? mode in photo #1 (it’s the one ear back thing that sells it). That’s one good looking cat, and the second photo shows how happy he is with his new home. Good job, John.
