As did I. Otters or dachshunds, they are totally adorable.

I had three dachshunds a decade ago when I was still spry. Dachsies will always be the dogs of my heart.

My personal preference is for large dogs, but one of hers is a longhaired black and white floof, that has the Sweetest Face In The Entire World. :-)

I love large dogs - my stepfather always had boxer dogs, the doofuses of the dog world - but we had a miniature dachshund when I was little, and honestly... they ARE large dogs, regardless of their actual size.

My Mighty Red Baron was a cuddler who never weighed more than ten pounds, and he had a sweet face and a loving disposition, but he was the undisputed boss of the neighborhood and regularly beat up larger dogs to keep them in line. He had no fear.

My son's dachshund loves water and we have to fight to keep her from getting into any she sees.

Wife and I have a dachshund who just hates water! We try to show her media like you adorbs tab to show her that it is possible to be both a dachshund princess and a swimmer, but she's old now, and set in her ways.

Anyway, as always, I love your tabs so much! They always make me smile.

May I toss in a book recommendation (sans dogs, though), "Swimming Pretty: The Untold Story of Women in Water" by Vicki Valosik?

"Allegedly"

"Sure why not. Trump said Duffy “will make our skies safe again by eliminating DEI for pilots and air traffic controllers,” officially bringing our long national nightmare of plane crashes caused by sky pronouns to an end. "

The last time there was a fatal commercial airline crash in the U.S. was in 2009. However in Putin's manly non DEI Russia, there have been 22 fatal commercial airline accidents during that same time. I did not count military, Government, or any crashes without fatalities. And though outside this time period, Aeroflot flight 594, an Airbus 310 with 63 passengers and 12 crewmembers crashed. The flight from Moscow to Hong Kong crashed because the pilot thought that it would be just great fun for his 12 year old daughter and 15 year old son to fly the plane for a while. The boy partially disengaged the autopilot, the plane went into a dive, then stall. The pilots were able to get the plane level again but it was at too low an altitude for the mountainous region

So yes, tell us again how DEI in U.S. Airlines is just so dangerous!

I don't remember seeing that one. My head only has so much room for bad TV shows from 60+ years ago. That said, I'd rather watch those reruns than any news programming over the next 4 years.

Since none of Trump's cabinet picks ever last more than two years Sarah Palin seems like a natural.

"These people are goddamned fucking brain-damaged windsocks."

According to Urban Dictionary, windsock has a number of gross or obscene definitions, but I'm pretty sure Evan means "gaping asshole." Come to Wonkette, learn a thing.

Trying to divide up the United States is one of Putin's longest fever dreams. MTG's chief of staff has long-term ties to the Kremlin, so it only makes sense.
