Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

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

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

I really should read my own blog.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

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

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

    The wife says our Nikki, the cocker spaniel, is fat; Nikki went on a diet today.

    I’ve seen that look on many a pup: that maddeningly patient and forgiving stare as you go about your life and they are waiting for you to mind-meld with them so that you will do what they want you to do: feed them, walk them, give them a belly-rub. Adorable.

    We caught our neighbor’s pooch running down our street, picked him up just as an idiot roared around the corner. He’s a nice pup, didn’t want to see him get hurt. She was at work and the girl who was keeping any eye on him down the street turned her back on him for just a second when the door was open and he was gone, heading home. I let the girl know we had him and that he was safe and she handed me his leash. He decided that meant it was time for a walk and he led my husband right to his house and waited for him to open the gate. Sweet, well-behaved little guy.

    We kept him inside because we don’t have a fenced yard, and it was only for a half hour but our cat is now stressed out, licking off all the fur from the inside of her left arm.

    The Cracker boxers are cute.

    @opiejeanne: Poor kitty. How did she do after you gave the pooch back its human? Give your kitty some skritches for me.

    CNN has a sidebar piece on their website called “How to Handle a Hijacker.”

    It’s too early in the morning for (or late at night) for CNN’s version of “Terrorism News You Can Use.”

    I also learned a high tech approach to finding where the dog pooed; it shows up as a nice and bright white spot on my thermal imaging thingy for my phone.

    Off to the big city! Just my luck that the Prez will be there, I hope I can avoid gridlock!

    They aren’t overweight – they are just undertall. The skinny legs exaggerate the girth. Cute.

    They don’t look fat at all. They remind me of James Norton and Robson Green with their shirts off on “Grantchester” the other night. Nice and muscly.

    I grew up with a tall style boxer, named Ginger because, well, she was ginger brown. Cuddled with her often. Sweet dawgs! Now we have bog old country labs, one blonde-tan and one white-but-for-country-dirt. Loves me some labs now, too. Pets and tunny rubs. They will behave for milk-bones.

    I know no one will likely see this but I miss John Cole’s energy on this blog. I enjoy all the other writers who share their special interests but it feels like JC has just gone missing for the most part. I haz a small sad.

    @PurpleGirl: Scratches applied. The over-grooming was the way she reacted. Also, her tail was on perma-floof, every hair on it and along her spine standing on end for nearly half an hour after he’d gone home. It’s only been about three months since something set her off and she licked herself raw the last time, but we never figured out what caused it that time. The first time it was because of construction noise, the pounding on the original foundation when they cut a crawl space for the addition, the second time was last summer when there were nails being pounded into the new deck.
    She’s young, only 3 yo. Poor baby.

    @Mystical Chick:

    I agree. He puts all his energy into Twitter.

    @opiejeanne:

    I can’t stomach Happy Valley, so I don’t have that problem! For me he’s Sidney and Prince Andrei. I wasn’t crazy about the mystery this past week, though. They’re trying to be “gritty,” which doesn’t fit the show.

    @opiejeanne: I was out walking at a local park that dog owners also frequent to get their animals to crap on property they don’t own. Is a leash requirement, but many let them off. This guy let his off & it headed for a good smell, etc. he was calling for it & it would not go back. I was walking by (as he’s calling for it) & it walked up to me wagging tail, etc. I captured it for him.
