Kilham bear center is close to where I live, on a remote back road that's used in a charity gravel bike ride I do. No visitors! Don't want the cubs to get too used to humans.
The scene in COCAINE BEAR (with Ray Liotta at his best) where he finds the den and two cubs roll out of a duffel bag full of cocaine, covered in white powder makes life worth living for a little while.
says here the real bear was autopsied, then taxidermied and ended up in a human mall and was dubbed Pablo Escobear. Seems like that bear deserves to spend eternity AWAY from horrible humans and their bad habits and lousy jokes.
This "Denounce, denounce, denounce" game is a variation of Murc's Law, which says that only Democrats have agency. Meaning that Republicans are never to blame because they can't help being what they are. And this whole antisemitic thing is laughable because it was right-wingers who were chanting "The Jews will not replace us." They don't love the Jews except as a club to beat up Dems.
I don't see why everyone's getting all het up about Mike Rogers. Remember, he didn't go into medicine to help his fellow human beings, he went into medicine to make a fuckton of money.
"Kindly old Senator Doc Roger Marshall of Kansas, an OBGYN, had some 81 of his patients arrested for failure to pay. "
Weren't we assured by a Republican Senatorial Candidate in Nevada that Doctors would accept a chicken or some work on their patio deck in exchange for brain surgery? How did that plan fail here?
$6.15 diesel in my town in Maine. We drive our EV as much as possible and leave the VW Cheatin' Diesel in the garage. The EV costs me ~$2.55 for my 75 mile commute. The diesel wagon would probably cost $9.25 for the same trip, while also killing the planet.
I’m prolly buying 30 to 40 gallons of gas a year, since 2023. As I do much local driving, and keep my ‘22 Escape PHEV charged, I’m likely getting around 80 mpge. (About 5 cents a mile.)
It sounds like it’s possible that, once reserves have been exhausted by our glorious leader, prices might really skyrocket. And I’ll have to teach my wife how to drive my toy, so she can go a fifth of the way around the beltway to care for her grandkids 3 times a week or so.
Fuck the MAGAs, the Republicans, and the Supreme Six.
Even just switching to hybrids can make for a huge reduction in gas consumption. I wish that change were going faster. By now, I’d hope that any vehicle heavier than a subcompact would be a hybrid. But nooooooo …. Freedum!
I really want an electric truck. I'd settle for a hybrid, but the ones available aren't suitable for my wants and needs. Slate comes closest, but they won't be making a four wheel drive so that's a deal-breaker. Ford has the Maverick hybrid, but they put back seats where more cargo should go. All the others are luxo-barges that I can't afford and don't want anyway. And don't even get me started on the WankPanzer.
From a 2024 article: "Despite adding six million more passenger cars, trucks, and SUVs to the roads over the last 10 years, California’s gasoline consumption has dropped over two billion gallons from its peak in 2005. More efficient (and cleaner) gasoline cars are part of the reason why gasoline use is down, but the increasing number of electric vehicles being sold in the state will likely drive gasoline use down even further."
Ta, Rebecca. Ta, Martini. I peeled, cored, and cut the pineapple, then used it in our luscious fruit bowls. Darling husband Meccalopolis had already served our flowery green tea. Now he's back in the kitchen, so we should soon have our elitist avocado toast and strong coffee. Good day, beloved Wonketteers. We love and appreciate you all and we bless us all with love, health, peace, and grace.
Please, please stay safe. Wear a mask or two, wash your hands, sanitize when you cannot wash and let the sanitizer dry completely, stop touching your face, take Vitamin D, get a booster shot six months after your last, catch up on any other vaccines you need, and get any kids in your family vaccinated as well, and stay the fuck away from us and anyone with whom you do not share a roof. Do this because you love yourself, and because we love you, too. Do this in memory of 27 Club member Treg, Holly's heroic pilot friend Tony, Dolly Parton, who put up a million dollars of her own money to make the Moderna vaccine possible, and nearly eight million dead worldwide, possibly including Gav, who had long COVID. Do this to honor the nurses and other frontline medical personnel (we love you, medicos of Wonkette, from student to active to retired), especially ICU Hera Mrs Land Shark RN. Stay safe. When we vote, we WIN!!
“Happy as a bear cub rolling in apples” is a saying I think should be more widely used: https://martiniambassador.substack.com/p/otso-and-the-edible-ball-pit
Also, here is a meme chat: https://open.substack.com/chat/posts/c2195cbc-5005-4bf1-a7cb-166dfe1e151a?utm_source=share
That's going to be one sticky faced bunch.

Oh, I could SO be that bear. Just spend my day rolling in and munching (maybe nutritious) snacks.
Now I have to choose: a dog’s life? Or a bear’s life? As always, too many decisions.
Everyone knows the best way to choose an apple is to roll around in the entire pile, until one slips into your mouth.
DUDE! That’s our breakfast!
Other bears: "Get your ass off our food, Otso!"
Bear version of Chuck E Cheese.
What? No pumpkins? How about some apple cinnamon donuts and apple cider? It's time for that around here in Michigan.
So this is what The Rapture truly looks like.

Aw, poopie, I hadn't realized he'd restricted his account.
He depicts Jesus as a sheep and his cousin John as a goat (fun fact, they were cousins).
Now THAT is contentment!
It's said that fruits of different kinds
Simply don't compare
Apples are not oranges
Neither are they pears
But when fruit combos come to mind
I feel it's only fair to say
I haven't seen one quite as fun
As apples rolled by bears.
Otso’s makin’ applesauce!
Jiggery-pokery!

Bear goddess!
Shardik!
I wish I was a bear cub rolling in apples
That is what I'd truly like to be ee ee
Cause' if I was a bear cub rolling in apples
Everyone would be in love with me!
Sorry, I don't care for apples... ;>/

I think you mean Roger Marshall, the Kansas candidate.
Mike Rogers doesn't have the brainpower to be a doctor.
I have been advocating since the first Trump administration for trading cards to keep these nimrods straight.
I want to see the Dan Sullivan design! They're was another duple, in the previous election, I think.
Doc and I might be the only farts old enough to recognize any significance in the name "Uncle Meat "
(No, the reference is not salacious.)
Upfist for fellow old fart recognition.
I DO NOT ENJOY MEAT IN MY TRUMPET.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Ms. O told me that very same thing on our first date.
Oh dear me
"Take Your Meat" How can you have any pudding if you don't take your meat?

How much more expensive would gas be if a bunch of us hadn't switched to EVs and PHEVs?
Even just switching to hybrids can make for a huge reduction in gas consumption. I wish that change were going faster. By now, I’d hope that any vehicle heavier than a subcompact would be a hybrid. But nooooooo …. Freedum!

The money one pays at the pump just goes right back into the refinery. A lot of people don't know that.
“GOP lawmakers, candidates, donors and party officials said in interviews they are counting on Trump..."
Well I found their problem right there.

Retiree stuff today (doctors' appointments), but we get to have lunch at the good Szechuan joint in Rego Park. Cheers!
Mmmmm, black mushrooms and greens over whole rice. Mmmmmm.
Re beef: "...raw incompetence on top of the raw corruption."
Perfect.
Welp! Paxlovid has been added to my diet. For those of you that attended the Wonk Labor Day Weekend. Take a test. NOW!
Whoa! Get well NOW!
Will do. We feel great, but it's better to know for sure. We have tests, and will take them.
