Sitting in my cat hole

Hoping for a nap

When a tiny budgie

Plops down in my lap

Lord knows I'm not a bad guy

But, let me tell you what

It's hard to just resist the urge

To give that guy a swat.

I am fairly certain a cat would not make a good nest.

The cat looks awfully comfy but if I fell asleep in that position my back would be wrecked when I woke up.

What a scene! They're so content! Bold birb and peel-me-a-grape cat...

"Eat it? Cats don't eat grapes, I just want you to peel one! Maybe one for the parrot too"

They gave Röhm a gun with a single bullet and told him to kill himself and he replied "if Adolf wants me dead he can come and do it himself"

Empty Wheel sure brought me receipts. That fucking Comey could have mentioned the people targeted by the DOJ but, no, that intrude on his main character syndrome episode.

Love the introductory gif, but let's face it: any cat that lets a bird perch on its tummy and doesn't even blink needs some serious therapy. Please tell this cat-lover that it was just AI!

The top story at Vox today is: "The next big debate Democrats can’t dodge. What do they do about ICE?" But Dems are professional big debate dodgers, so don't hold your breath.

I swear Tabs is like my morning liturgy. Only instead of incense I get Trump’s Gaza fanfic, ICE zombies, and Pete Hegseth trying to canonize literal war crimes. Night of the Strong Wives, Night of the Long Knives—either way, empire men always seem to end the party by stabbing each other.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — On a visit to New Zealand, FBI Director Kash Patel gave the country’s police and spy bosses gifts of inoperable pistols that were illegal to possess under local gun laws and had to be destroyed, New Zealand law enforcement agencies told The Associated Press. The plastic 3D-printed replica pistols formed part of display stands Patel presented to at least three senior New Zealand security officials in July. Inoperable weapons are treated as though they’re operable in New Zealand if modifications could make them workable again.

Kash Patel doesn't understand how laws work in America. You want him to understand how laws work in other countries?

The more you know...

Wikipedia: Nickelodeon (movie theater)

The nickelodeon was the first type of indoor exhibition space dedicated to showing projected motion pictures in the United States and Canada. Usually set up in converted storefronts, these small, simple theaters charged five cents for admission (a "nickel", hence the name) and flourished from about 1905 to 1915. American cable station Nickelodeon was named for these theaters.

Mixed morning. Somehow forgot to have breakfast before riding the 25 km to work. In my defense, adopted cat looking for attention on day thirteen of her fourteen day post shelter quarantine and preparing for this thing is kinda involved. Eggs and coffee would probably have been good before leaving tho.

And then a flat tire around 18 km. But I had all the things I needed and fixed the tire quickly enough and I made decent time even with that and it was a lovely autumn morning and the pretty brunette at the hotel coffee shop near work put extra bacon with my eggs. So ya know. Ending okay.

Thanks for posting Sara Taber's videos! Had never heard of Ballerina Farm, but it sounds in tune with today's aesthetic for people with more money than sense. The video is a good reminder of her earlier video that explained that farmers aren't voting against their interests, since they're all (well, most) millionaires who care more about tax cuts than they do marketability of their products. And the bailouts to come make it all double plus good for them.

I worked on a farm for a couple of years 40 years ago. The farm was in Virginia and owned by a doctor and a banker from Florida, who would come up a couple of times a year. At the time my mom asked if I'd like to own a farm, and the thought of battling Johnson Grass alone made my answer a hard no. Also, I didn't have the MBA mindset.

I’m done giving Ezra Klein clicks, and have started referring to him as Zera Klang.

If Ta-Nehisi Coates writes some reflections on the experience, please let me know.

In the meantime I much prefer this:

“*Zera Klang* have you considered just hosting a potluck?”
