Sorry, it wasn't letting me load an image last night and I forgot I was still in the middle of that.

It still isn't letting me load an image, but anyway.

The bun, by the way, is Monsieur Grumpe’s wild bunny friend. He was nice enough to take some video for me, which everyone can find here: https://open.substack.com/pub/martiniambassador/p/lucky-wild-bunny

This is also apparently how republican legislators work.

Even sawdust can be useful. Like for cleaning up vomit, which is more like what Republican legislators provide.

Makes acceptable stall muck in a pinch as well. Which is MORE use than most GOP politicians.

Actually those aren't the cecotropes, dog will just eat anything. Rabbits usually eat the cecotropes before we see them. They look like chocolate blackberries.

During the pandemic I installed a bidet and haven't used toilet paper since, except when I'm not at home.

Pooping became measurably more enjoyable since I installed my bidet.

Measurably how? What are the indices? And do you keep records? And did you before so that you have something to compare?

Never mind. I actually do not want to know.

It's not the ground, it's the firmament. He's holding all the ground on his shoulders.

Did I forget these celebrities were currently locked up, though, or did I never know that they existed?

/Quote

For me, it was definitely the latter. I think I recognized the names of maybe three of them.

I dunno what showed up for anyone else clicking on that article, but for me, I got a far more interesting one under the "who's in jail" one, about Randy Quaid's spectacular crash and burn from promising young star to ex-felon and MAGA madman today.

Missed opportunity: we’ve been buying WGAC toilet paper since the great tp shortage of 2020, without knowing about the Wonkette connection. We’re now running a 3-4 month surplus but I will keep Wonkette in mind if I can ever find that link again.

Left, Right, and center have been moaning, yelling, whining and complaining about Democrats my ENTIRE adult life. And I am old. I was a little kid when JFK was in office, which seems like maybe the last time everybody liked a Democratic President?

Not impressed with Jon McNaughton's latest painting. It clearly needs more chains and a vulture to peck at Trump's liver.

That McNaughton! Such a tiny world Trump carries. And where is he? Timbuktu? Mordor? On a very large asteroid? I mean, he can't be standing on the earth and carrying it at the same time. And those shoes are totally unfit for mountain hiking, not that Donald Trump would ever in a million years be found hiking around in mountains. I don't know what the atmosphere on that beach ball is made of, but it appears to be hard and shiny.
