Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Somebody needs to explain to DeSantis that nobody needs to do anything to make him look bad.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

Found liable for massive fraud, is required to post a massive bond, gets a break, then files a *fraudulent* bond!

Books are my comfort food!

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

The words do not have to be perfect.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

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

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

Biden: Oh no. We’ve upset Big Pharma again.

The Supreme Court is corrupt. Democrats must win in November and force court reform.

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

If West Virginia and San Francisco had a love child.

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

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

This post is in: ,

I delivered some new ribbon today, and I forgot to show you the new bow she got (they made it while she was getting treated):

Two other things about this picture- A.) She is on the ottoman on her own- she is jumping again. When she was super sick I had to pick her up.

B.) She’s starting to look a little thicc (by Lily standards). Doctors were super happy about her weight.

And I am telling you, when Lily goes up there the nurses and receptionists just go nuts over her. So do a lot of the people waiting on their pets. I guess they just love how I carry her in like a toddler, and then instead of putting her on the floor she sits on my lap or on the chair next to me while I fill out the weekly paperwork and just crosses her paws and sit there like a lady. When other dogs start acting the fool she just sits there and behaves.

Just the best doggie.

    I’m glad she’s doing better. Smedley Darlington Mingobat wants to go out in the yard now at 11:00 in the evening to bark at the damned fox in the woods and wake up everybody on the street. He wants me to believe that he has to take a piss, but I’ve played this game often enough to know that he’s shitting me here.

    @Major Major Major Major: When we still had foxes (yes, they do move on when the coyotes come along) our little black stray dog used to bark at them–well, in fact she used to bark at any- and everything–and chase them across the fields on her scrambling little short legs.

    One day I saw her going after a fox across the width of the back fields, and realized the fox would turn and wait for her to nearly catch up before running ahead again. It later occurred to me this may have been a vixen luring the dog away from her cubs, but I can’t document that. Sure looked like a game was being played.

    Our kitty Annie has definitely decided that the lion cut makes her a badass. It’s good to see her feeling better — she is currently peering out the living room window wondering how the birds would taste.

    Cole,

    So glad to see Lily acting more like her old self… lying on the hassock chilling out.

    Compost for the back gets my vote too!

    Take care working in the yard…

    Moar info on compost / topsoil:

    West Virginia has real topsoil (Seattle has an average of 1 inch… where I grew up near Akron we had 3 FEET!) But it’s probably not available for sale unless you know a landowner selling it. Topsoil mix tends to be sieved excavation material mixed with sand, up to 80 percent, and 5 percent composted organic matter, often quick composted sawdust with urea added to cook and darken the sawdust. The lesson is: you don’t need much compost to imorove your soil. The compost, or any organic matter, will break up (aggregate, in layman’s terms) any clay in the soil. Sand without organic matter mixed with clay produces concrete in a few short months. I’ve got a story about a landscape architect friend who bought a pick…

    You have no idea how happy this news makes me. You are a lucky man, John. All of us who have one or more of these wonderful creatures in our lives know your pain, and your delight. Rock on, Lily.
