Wombats and Numbats have lots in common. Australian and use their tough rump for protection in their burrows. Difference is that wombats are much bigger and herbivores. Both are very lovable!
An adult Numbat eats about 20,000 termites every day. If these guys weren't endangered I would think there would be a great future in pest control for them.

L.A. neighborhood installing sirens to warn of federal immigration agents
A grassroots effort led by residents and community activists in Los Angeles’ Highland Park is working to install warning sirens to alert people in their neighborhood when federal immigration agents are spotted nearby.
Organizers say the goal is simple — give families time to move to safety.
Amanda Alcalde created the Highland Park Community Support Group, offering resources to residents concerned about federal immigration raids. “We’d like to ultimately have this along all the different streets so they can take shelter,” she said.
She’s already posted flyers alerting neighbors about the sirens, which she hopes to begin installing later this month, some of which have been posted on social media.
While Pickled Pete thinks he's really cool to say 'F-A-F-O' whenever he is insecure the party faithful of MAGA are shocked that the fuel prices have shot right up there instantaneously.
When it comes to Finding Out because you Fucked Around we sure can't beat MAGA Cletus pulling his oversize pick up next to the pump and having to make quick decisions on which child he will have to sell to the local pedophile cabal just so Cletus can roll some coal on his neighbor's Prius.
'We have always been at war with Eastasia' sure sounds better than any of this amateur crap dribbling out of the mouths of the GOP these past few days.
Call me a hidebound old fogey if you will. But I just don't see why people like Markwayne Mullin and Mike Johnson insist on mangling Orwellian tropes when the fucking INSTRUCTION MANUAL is sitting on every library shelf in every school in North America already! All they have to do is pull it off the shelf, blow the dust off the top, open the book and...........
We didn't even get a fucking Colin Powell Fig Leaf of Lying Lies performance at the UN before the shooting started. No display of aerial photos showing stuff that could be anything and labeling that stuff WMDs. No lies that Iran was the real 9-11 and we should never forget.
Dr. Jason Johnson did a short autopsy regarding Rep. Jasmine Crockett's loss and it seems that she did not hire a campaign manager to run her campaign. She also didn't educate voters on finding out which precinct they were to vote in considering Republican shenanigans to suppress the vote. This makes me very sad.
It kind of sounds like the system to check your precinct online was also foobared. So not sure educating people to use a resource that was broken would have changed much.
Texas fucked up everything on purpose. Hopefully Texas is tired of electing people who operate this way.
Seeing seats in NC flipping Dem AND the Black candidates no less is very heartening. Seeing a tide change to more progressives should tell the rank and file to get their acts together and do something new like LISTEN TO US!
Funny how NC got their disaster relief after Tillis chewed dog killer a new one. I think he did the right thing by NOT asking questions that he knew she would only lie about. All the hearings for these horrible people should go like that. Don’t give them the opportunity to feel like they can pay themselves on the back and say good job girl.
Noem is clearly using her position to enrich herself and her “special” assistant same as Patel and Kegsbreath. Fuck them all.

I'm sure there are many homeowners who wished they would have had this cutie around to save their houses! They are adorbs!

Unlike the many numbnuts
That steer our ship of state
The clever little numbat
Is very hard to hate.
They rummage 'round for termites
With tongues so long and straight
And thereby save folk's houses
From being termite ate.

Grrrrrrr
Need more numbats!
Oh, and I want one for myself I think also, too!
I hope they're comfortable numbats.
Have to admit, I was completely stumped as to what those critter are. Was thinking Tasmanian Devil Squirrel?
YOU'RE A...nevermind. Sorry. Already used that one this week. Should have waited.
OK, Martini, now you’re just making up fanciful marsupials.
Are numbats related to dingbats?
Do they have numbnuts?
Stifle yourself there, will ya?
Or numbnuts?
Shoot! I didn't read far enough! Good one.
Poor vision creates some hilarious reading on occasion.
I doubt that. They don't have funny yellow hair.
Is not war. Is special military operation.
I love that there's a reggae Talking Heads cover band, Talking Dreads. Here's their cover of today's headline.

"Spanish PM Sanchez responds to Trump"
I don't know about the rest of you, but after what happened when France refused to help out with Iraq, I'm inclined to drink nothing but Spanish wine.
They do make some quite good wine and very good brandy. French brandy is overrated.
primarying the shit out of their electeds who are voting against our base :)
