The more I see of your gifs, the more I love animal parents, Martini! I love that so many of them are just parents--I can see parents I know in them.

I have never encountered a pudu, but I have visited the National Key Deer Preserve on Big Pine Key. The key deer are only found there, although they were once on other islands in the keys. They get no bigger than a golden retriever.

Actually, I think I remember hearing about them, but had forgotten the name.

Happy mother's day, Bacu! 🎶Go do that voodoo that you do.... you pudu you 🎶

"...Bacu’s new baby will stay with his mom until sexually mature, at 8-12 months. He’ll then be placed with a breeding partner..."

It's a pudu's life....

"There are three branches of the government that are to some degree opposed to that level of cost savings.”

There are only three branches of the federal government. Didn't Mushpants have to study that to become a citizen?

Recently I learned what an NPC is (Non playable character) but I wonder how many other people are confused by the term. Or why the richest man in the world with two major companies to manage would be talking like some 19 year old gamer still living in his parent;s basement,

> Our son 19yo son landed at Dulles from an international flight at 7 PM. At 7:45. He texted that he was heading to customs. It’s now 11:30 PM. We haven’t heard from him and cannot reach him.

Many hours later, he's released:

> After several hours, 2 FBI agents came in. They would ask him questions regarding his feelings towards the president, terrorists, and political memes he liked on Instagram. then send him back out to wait for long periods of time.

Trump also showed a bunch of white crosses and cars paying their respects and claimed they were mass graves. It was a temporary memorial to a couple that were killed and the cars were neighbors paying their respects. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce81334je72o

"Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-N.C.) is being slammed on social media for decrying a litany of words that Democrats used to describe President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” during a House rules committee hearing early Wednesday morning.

“I am concerned about what has been said about this bill and what it’s going to do, the extreme comments that have been made about it, and how I believe that it is scaring people out there in the country unnecessarily,” Foxx said during the hearing.

“The words I’ve heard particularly today are: cut, rip, gut, kill, cruel, stealing food, losing coverage, jam through, biggest transfer of wealth from vulnerable to wealthy people, irresponsible,” she continued. “That is not the way we ought to be talking about this bill.”

The reactions on social media, meanwhile, suggest these are perfectly apt descriptors for it."

Yes, Virginia, dear. We should be using the words 'cut, rip, gut, kill' to describe the fate you need to meet SOONEST.

"Mexican Economy Minister Marcelo Ebrard will travel to Washington for a meeting Friday.

Sure to be mentioned at that meeting: Trump’s “one big beautiful bill” would tax transfers of money across international borders at a rate of 3.5%. Those remittances, often sent by migrant workers to family back home, represent a significant sum in their countries of origin.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum last week called the proposal “unacceptable.”

“It would result in double taxation, since Mexicans living in the United States already pay taxes,” she said. “This will not just affect Mexico,” she added. “It will also affect many other countries and many other Latin American countries.”" [HuffPost]

So James Comey is the one that put Martha in prison? I did not know that. Just another reason to hate that guy even more. And I think he has mommy issues.

"Gonorrhoea"? Does that mean I've been spelling "diarrhoea" wrong all these years too?

Not to give offence, but colour me sceptical that this will kerb what one might characterise as risky behaviour, and could instead give licence to more being hospitalised.
