Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

In my day, never was longer.

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

Let’s finish the job.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

He really is that stupid.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

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

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

I really should read my own blog.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Accountability, motherfuckers.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Lily Update

by | 45 Comments

This post is in: ,

Been a while since we had a Lily update, and she is doing remarkably well. She had chemo last Monday, if you remember, and she was a little sluggish on Tuesday and Wednesday, but she came out of it and has just gotten better everyday. She is greeting me at the door again when I get home, I am getting a lot of play bows and her tail is up and waggy, and she prances around and does her little shimmy shake thing she does with her butt when she is happy.

We head back up tomorrow for round 2 and some blood work, and it had been a while since he had a bath, and as always was a perfect angel:

She did find the time to give us a little raspberry:

And of course some Jedi action:

She’s now wrapped up in a towel like a baby and napping on my lap.

I hope we get good news tomorrow at the vet!

    I am getting a lot of play boys

    Is there something going on in your life that you might want to share with us jackals?

    So happy to see this, although kind of amazed that she likes the bath. Then again my visiting cat, Mr. Muffin, likes to stand in the sink with the faucet pouring water on his head. To each his own.

    Lily! Awww…what a great tonic to see her after a day like today. That Jedi picture is just too much. She is the cutest and sweetest. Who’s the best girl? Lily is!

    Pretty girl! I hope all goes well at the vet tomorrow.

    Annie has finally forgiven us for the lion cut and is even letting G rub her belly again. I think she’s a lot more comfortable without all of thwt matted fur, especially once the heat wave started.

    @Mnemosyne: Did you ever get a picture of her?

    My neighbor’s dog got her summer cut last weekend. I didn’t even recognize her! My neighbor said they took off 2-3 pounds of fur. She (the dog) seems a lot happier too.

    She takes her baths without a fuss? – she really is an angel!

    Love the Jedi Puppy pic.

    Oh, you’ve got blood cancer? Here, let me put in this tub and put smelly shit and water on you.

    I remain unconvinced of your healing properties, Cole.

    Suspect she’d do better without you fucking with her, but you got to Daddy. Totally understand.

    The Jedi picture needs to be in next year’s calendar. It’s just precious.

    She is just precious. Praying for good blood counts. Thanks for the update about what’s important.

    Nice photo sequence – and so clear and bright!! Hoping for the best for Lily at the vet (you too). My doggo goes in for his 3rd post-op cancer screening later in the month, so I can empathize with some of your emotions going in today….

    I love love love the Jedi photo almost as much as I love Lily. Good morning, sweet girl. Keep on fighting in your own Lily way.

    PS — I got Maggie’s DNA results: 1 small surprise: 50% American Staffordshire Terrier, 25% beagle, 12.5% Shih Tzu and 12.5% (Breed Group Herding). Shih Tzu?????
