For about a year or so, a very insouciant racoon with no tail would visit my patio to scarf up left over bird seed. He would hang out on the purple bird feeder tower and just enjoy the weather. One day I tried to shoo him away from the feeders (he had been hogging the space for over an hour). He stared at me. Inched his way down. And wiggled his butt. Unfortunately, he disappeared some time after than.
Every fascist regime begins by claiming to “keep you safe.” Then it shoots a journalist, gases a protester, and blames the air traffic controllers for being woke.
ICE lies because it has to. The truth would melt its badge.
Blessed be the ones who refuse to get used to the absurd, who can still tell the difference between a nation and a hostage situation.

I just watched the insane kabuki performance of Pam Bondi and senate hearings on cspan.
Instead of answering a tough question from Sen Blumenthal, Bondi immediately went to Biden:Hunter Biden.
Why can’t the Dems nail this bitch, with maybe some video from Chicago? From the past few days!! That would deflate their insane accusations of Dems previously weaponizing the DOJ.
The felon in the whitehouse is out to lunch while his minions commit atrocities, and steal.
Gruppenführer Miller's comment about Black Chicagoans echoes his stupid comments last summer about Americans celebrating our domestic ethnic cleansing. Much like his (?)boss, he clamps onto a lie and then just keeps repeating it.
Wonkette, please post about the planned attack on the US embassy in Venezuela that Madiro announced. Now Orange Boy wants to start a land war without proof of weapons of mass destruction. If Orange keeps this up he will make Maduro look like a saint.

Uh huh, and just what is a Black job, Stephen Miller?
TABS HAVE BEEN RATIONED? Where do I get my Red Stamp Card? And are we rationing butter too? If so, can I be the one to mash the colorless oleomargerine with the little salt-and-color packet?d (IYKYK)
OT, do not read - I'm a songwriter for as long as I can remember. I even came *this close* to getting a song on a 13x platinim major label debut album from a girl band nobody ever heard of.
So, I was working on this new song, and I came to the second verse that was like a fork in the road. One way was easy, it was approximate rhyme (like rhyming line with time), and it led to the destination i anticipated from the beginning. And I've done this so many times I don't even know.
But, maybe for the first time, it hit me how lazy that was. Just laziness of thought. And I realized that when I work at it, when I really get into the muse enough to chisel out the real rhyme, it leads to places I hadn't thought of before. The unmiraculous act of simply thinking deeper about what I'm doing makes it seem worthwhile. It's like the difference between merely sharpening a knife, and honing it to the breadth of a molecule.
It eases the depression. It makes me work. It pulls me up from the pit of shit we seem to be mired in. It really does take work to rhyme girl with something other than world, and not be ridiculous.
I'm not selling anything, I'm not criticizing or preaching. I'm just relating a thing that gives me more strength to handle this shit. We get hammered with more superficial nonsense than any group of people on earth ever dealt with. Let us not succumb.

Raccoon splash party!

Mom, the raccoons are playing in the tub again! Mooooooooom!
It's the Wet Bandits!
Nothing is more fun than a bathtub filled with water and racoons.
Otters would be a close second.
they’ve seized the showerhead, god help us all
Her name was Magill
And she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy...
Gotta wonder why the saying isn't 𝘔𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘍𝘶𝘯 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘈 𝘉𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘵𝘶𝘣 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘈 𝘊𝘰𝘶𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘙𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘰𝘰𝘯𝘴
A barrel full of monkeys sounds hazardous...
Raccoons doing their rendition of the Weasel War Dance!
Forget it guys, it's a bathtub. No fish.
Having a bath. That there is a training mission!
Coons just wanna have fun!
Raccoon babby!!!!
Might as well jump…🎶
Jump?
go ahe-ead and ju-uhmp

I know, I was carrying on with the refrain.
Dear Portland Rebs. The Portland PB shields do not have "Policia" written on them. Thoughtfully, a fan.

I tried telling my Trumpy Neighbor it was illegal for the government to blow up civilians in international waters.
She disagreed vehemently because "they can't bring drugs in."
I guess the concept of "law" escapes her.
Drop this on her:

Thank you. I appreciate your response.
"Insurrectile dysfunction" ftw!
We're not worthy, Evan. We're not worthy.
Ugh, raccoons are a NIGHTMARE!!!
I know the end is near.

Just like Joseph Goebbels taught him by osmosis

We are deep in it, are we not. Regretfully the writer did not leave us with steps for a cure.
Maybe the Pedos4Christ folks are trying to get an early start on Cocktober?
Wait, WUT?
