There are days when I have an infantile wish to be a cat........

Hmmmmmmmm.....that sentence did not start with the truth so I'll just stop myself, swallow a bit more coffee and start again.

(pause...two swallows of coffee later)

Every single day I wish I was a cat and could jump like that! You better believe I would be one of those cats doing that jumping thing all the time.

Or to live in a world where we can all just casually jump 40 or 50 feet in the air, and come down to a soft landing on a ledge, a few inches wide, and then balance with a rear leg sticking up in the air while we casually groom ourselves.

But flying would also be nice.

I would settle for flying. In Buddhist theory nighttime dreams of flying are indicative of an aspiration for spiritual liberation.

On a more mundane note, flying would be a great way to get to my favorite states of Idaho, Wyoming and Montana.

If I could avoid hitting birds on my way! 🙂

Menotsure's avatar

In a rush of paws, claws, tails and ears

The kittens leap the gate

Attempts to slow the onslaught

Are only tempting fate

Why so many kittens?

Asks my inner voice

That many little fuzz balls

Seems like a crazy choice

To set them free is easy

They want their morning snack

But how the hell does anyone

Convince them to go back?

I opened the door

To catch some sun

Suddenly 8 kittens

Their freedom won

Leapt the gate bought

To keep them in

Me versus my kittens

They always win!

That wee ginger! This reminds me of recently, I was hiking near Santa Fe, and heard lustful and excited barking from a car, and lo, the car did release 8, yes 8 corgis, they launched out, joyfully. I asked the owners how they do it? She answered' "look at them, how can I not?" Schooled!

Were gonna need some kitty rustlers to rustle up the kitties. It will probably take all day to rustle up the kitties and it will never be done. <sigh>

As a child I had a series of books that came in the mail from I believe it was National Geographic? There was one titled “Cats: Little Tigers in your House” that I quite enjoyed.

Those kittens are wee, furry 'lil predators of THE most ferocious variety. Vicious little creatures when they want to be.

Look at how they've bewitched us into doting over them.

The last page should have said, “when you are all grown up, visit the worldwide Web (don’t worry, you will understand later), and to go to www.wonkette.com, and there you shall find your tribe.”

Because this is imprinting of the finest order. This is what the John Burch Society should have been up in arms against, not fluoride.

So der Führer continues to yacket about his GREAT GOLDEN VENEZUELA BOMBING, so mmmmmaybe it actually happened? But I haven't seen anything corroborating it? And Petey Kegsbreath did ANOTHER boatmurder so evidently the threat of zombie Communist Hamas rainbow fentanyl still exists?

Nothing says “normal day” like not knowing whether we bombed a country or the president just riffed his way into international news again.

Tabs like this feel less like jokes and more like triage notes from the end of the year.

Why would Ukraine waste their precious drones by attacking Putin's house (likely empty while he lives in a bunker) when they have more important targets like Russia's oil fields and refineries and military bases.

Trump is gonna promise Ukraine a 15 year security agreement, to get the peace/surrender deal.

‘How can anyone possibly trust Putin?’
