Boston Terriers have a wildness all their own. 9 year old me tried to train my BT, and couldn’t even do Sit Stay. He always went for the food in my hand, just like he went for the vacuum cleaner and the neighbor’s German Shepherd. Screen Door? Not no more!
My daughter has a Boston terrier with those qualities, except that she knows and obeys several commands. People kept asking if she was a French bulldog. Then my daughter was in Puerto Rico and had the opportunity to adopt an adorable chocolate and caramel colored French bulldog that had already been a mommy at a puppy mill. Now people look at them side by side and say, “oh.” There is something about the bulldog’s stance and gait that makes her look like a miniature rhinoceros, without the horns. I sometimes narrate: “The rhinoceros emerges from the high grass headed toward the truck full of tourists. Unstoppable in its search for food, it circles…”
What I'll say is, I thought the righties *wanted* the progressive Dems to win because they'd be easier to beat in the general. (Or are you talking about the general?)
I happened to here the Rolling Stones song "Under my Thumb" the other day... He tells her what to say, what to wear, what to do, where she can go, who she can talk to... Frankly, that seems like a lot of work, I'd be exhausted
How is it you so often feature selections from my playlist back in the '80's when I was program-directing at the only public radio station on the North Slope and could play whatever I wanted whenever I wanted? Love it. Love the fairies too. Keep on keepin' on.
Never heard about this movie until now. I don’t watch any broadcast or cable TV anymore and stick to watching the odd streaming show or YouTube, so I missed any ads for it.
"Trump has revived his effort to remove Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve, despite a Supreme Court ruling in June the found he couldn’t fire Cook over made-up charges of mortgage fraud. Sources told ABC News and the Financial Times that the White House sent a letter to Cook this week telling her it was “considering” removing her from the Reserve and demanding a response within three weeks.
Cook’s lawyer, Abbe Lowell, dismissed outright the accusations of mortgage fraud in a statement to the Financial Times. “These allegations are as baseless now as they were a year ago when President Trump tried to remove Governor Cook and interfere with the independence of the Federal Reserve,” Lowell said."

I did my part in California in May, too! I made almost 50% more electricity than I used. This month (and last) I'm barely breaking even due to extreme heat and not being able to turn off the A/C. October will be better.
The first sign of trouble should have been when they embraced pure class reductionism, dismissed “identity politics” (I.e. fighting against racism, sexism, etc.), and went on to become nakedly anti-trans.
"It’s “exactly what you would expect from a guy who thinks he gets working-class cred by wearing a tight black T-shirt.” She also called him “gym boy.”
Ingraham also made mention during an interview with El-Sayed’s Republican opponent, Mike Rogers: “Are we going to see you in a tight black T-shirt, Mike? Are you going to try to outdo him on the pecs, or what? Because that seems to be his new campaign, working-class costume.”
Ingraham also referred to El-Sayed as “the guy who’s the socialist dreamboat of diversity," wondering if voters "are really going to buy his attempt to pivot and his silly gym rat flex and his tight-fitting black tee?”
For some reason I am recalling Jon McNaughton's artwork and MTG's gym schedule... and wasn't there something about the head of the Health Service and his fondness for hot tubs. Yeah. Nobody ever lost a bet on GOP hypocrisy!
Funny, aren’t these the same chuds who rant and rave about how American leftists are all out-of-shape, weak and wimpy “soyboys” rather than big, strong, manly men?
July 23: "“Well, gotta give her credit,” Ingraham admitted. “She didn’t know much — still won. But the fact is, AOC is an attractive millennial with a powerful surface appeal.

I always feel a little jealous seeing Greens in the UK getting elected to real positions and actually doing shit, and in the US all we get is bunch of useless wankers on the Kremlin dole.
A few years back the ACT government was a coalition of Labor and the Greens. Worked quite well, actually. Labor wouldn't do it again because they had to do too much icky lefty stuff

Juan is the sweetest boy alive! Unless you're a dog. Or a cat. 😊 Please give him some scritches for me!
Done.

Juan has to be on leash at all times. If he sees anything with fur and four legs he is in attack mode.
I blame Looney Tunes for ruining my view of the Tasmanian Devil. It was portrayed as a cranky, whirling dervish.
A few years ago it took centre stage in one of my nature videos. What a darling little creature! Backlit, its ears were a beautiful cherry red.
Forgive me, TD. Shame on you, wacky animators! Albeit I did love its feistiness.
it had a grunty growly voice too that I tried (still try) to imitate
Neato! This made me grin widely. Yes! Very scary. I hope that one day you are successful. Keep trying!
I wanted to spin like that. Up into the air. Never tried it though. Common sense got the better of me I guess.
You mean in the wild, they don't spin around?
Bwah! I must have missed that. It was just wandering around, chilling. But wouldn't that be cool?
They can dance so good they just do it out of nowhere
Heh. I bet you're right. We are not worthy.
Martini have you seen the asian lady playing with the giant anteater? That would be a good one!

Wonderful!
Tabsmanian Devil
I came here just to say that!
I award thee an internet.
Sympathy for that devil…🎶
Run for the hills!
Whenever I see one, all I can think of is the horrid noises they make.
Cute little devil!
Cute little devil.
Jinx!
Devilishly cute.
What? Secretive rightwing groups are using the Green Party as a Trojan Horse/spoiler against a progressive Democrat? Say it ain’t so!
What I'll say is, I thought the righties *wanted* the progressive Dems to win because they'd be easier to beat in the general. (Or are you talking about the general?)
It’s the general election.
Mick is my favorite country singer!
I happened to here the Rolling Stones song "Under my Thumb" the other day... He tells her what to say, what to wear, what to do, where she can go, who she can talk to... Frankly, that seems like a lot of work, I'd be exhausted
For me that is tied with Sting's "Every Breath You Take" as the creepiest rock song ever.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers on line 1.

"Far Away Eyes" is "Tangled up in Blue", but shitty.

And here I was thinking she had Bette Davis eyes.
Who could have possibly foreseen a show that named itself after a movement that led to the Armenian genocide would be less than 100% on the up-and-up?

"I was so pleased to be informed of this, that I ran twenty red lights in his honor."
Your mum has great taste in music, Rebecca.
Ewww -- Laura Ingraham on El-Sayed:

Now do Talarico...
Sounds like Laura wants a taste of El-Sayed.
She wants AOC's "red lip" more..

Thirsty Laura...thirsty...
I've seen ads for "One Night Only" all over, but I never knew the plot or premise or whatever until I read this.
BOY does it sound stupid.
I tried to thank the reviewer for an incite full review, but it makes you use Disgust...eeeuuuuuuuwwwww.
Surely if you can wager on cancer patients dying you can wager on forest fires. And murder, mayhem, and premature ejaculation.
It's when people start betting on things happening that they then make happen just to win their bet that it gets to be a problem.
I always feel a little jealous seeing Greens in the UK getting elected to real positions and actually doing shit, and in the US all we get is bunch of useless wankers on the Kremlin dole.

Useless wankers is giving them too much credit...
