    Just remember… cats are only your friend because you can’t fit in their mouth.

      Although, on occasion, they do make the attempt.

    “Do a self-portrait.”

    Is that along the lines of “Let’s go Brandon?”

    A refined way of saying GFY?

    Could get added to the Southern dictionary as an updated version of “Bless your little heart!”

    Hunter, you may not have been successful in giving Skye the business, but if she has any moxie at all as a reporter, she is about to get all up in your “bidness,” and it won’t be pretty. Could be downright medieval.

        Now that I’ve stopped laughing and thinking that is way too gross. Wonder if Hunter pays his hookers to clean the self portrait

      Speaking of which, I got one envelope with a coaster and a CRA I.D. – I can’t remember exactly which were which. I made five or six separate donations, but marked several “no merch” because it would duplicate material.

      To be honest, the next year’s strips would be enough “merch” for me

      I have a similar crew helping me when I work from home – Minnie, Pip, and Cole.

      They always seem to be present whenever I am involved in an online meeting, demanding attention. Then, once the webcam is shut off, they disappear…unless I am working on documentation for one of the many engineering projects I work on.

    We had cats and they all moved in with us and stayed. All were kittens when we found them except one. The one that was older, probably a year old and she was our first cat. She was a black and brown calico, pretty kitty. We were living in the city then and my wife and I were sitting on the front porch and we saw her walking down the sidewalk and she looked scared. My wife asked me if she should call to her and I said sure. So she called to the cat and she came running up to and on the porch and just then, my older son came out the front door and she scooted in the house and was with us for 17 years! Then came others! 🙂 The thing is, my wife didn’t even like cats but Coco won her over. Such a good cat!

    Can’t even count the number of cats for whom I’ve been support staff over the decades. Even won over Spousal Unit, who now believes a house without a cat or two or three is empty and hollow.

    We rescued a four-year-old in July. We still have to keep her (SU’s cat) and my three-year-old cat (I’m definitely his human) separate. It’s gonna be a seriously slow process getting them to tolerate each other in the same room. But tiny Harley Girl needed to be rescued, and Czarny’s just gonna have to deal.

    Two big elements pending;

    One is the subpoena storm over 1/6 being weaponized with promised arrests for no-shows with the agenda of the suppression and deterrence of anything and anyone connected to Trump…would you hold or fold if threatened with total destruction?

    The other is this from Trump’s direct email yesterday…

    “If we don’t solve the Presidential Election Fraud of 2020 (which we have thoroughly and conclusively documented), Republicans will not be voting in ’22 or ’24…it is the single most important thing for Republicans to do.”

    Ignoring the garbled tense there, that sounds pretty damn ominous; is it finally an actual demarcation that has been missing for nearly a year now? What will it mean?

    The two may seem unrelated but they are inextricably intertwined; the former a threat that any elected resistance to the junta will be cancelled and killed, and the latter a promise to embrace that threat preemptively and eliminate that fake process altogether in favor one must think, of a new process and new representatives of a Free American Republic.

    Am I reading too much into it? I sure hope not, we have had so many false promises and unanswered questions that if this is just another one of those then our looking to Trump directly for any path forward is over and done, and his time of significant impact and leadership will be well and truly ended. I hope that is not the case.

      My expectation is right after the new year, the Repubs will “start looking into” election reform. That will occupy most of the year without it accomplishing anything more than global warming. Thus leaving us in a worse position for 24 than before their usual talking BS. Sorry to be that way, but I have lived too long watching them all rob us blind. Pray Harder for SMOD!

      Yes… not to be Debbie Downer, but I could not believe he thinks Republicans (of the 23 Knives) have any intention of ”fixing” election fraud in time for ’22 or ’24. They will be far too busy obediantly fawning over ”Our first historic female president of diversity”.

    We have 2 furballs…. my beautiful sweet Russian Blue ( Baby Blue ) who is my best bud and Miss Kitty.

    Miss Kitty was a half starved semi-feral stray when she showed up 13 years back and she has mellowed a bit over the years.

    She still has one goal in life…. find something, kill it and eat it. best mouser we’ve ever had.

    Having spent a number of years living in different houses for months at a time, I got to feed quite a few feral cats. Most made their own rounds of different houses that fed them. Like a circuit. There was one the owner named Fritz and first, he brought a small female with him after a time. Then four kittens showed up with him. They showed until they were larger. Finally, only Fritz was showing up.
    He used to spend hours trying to stare down a Cony (Israel) that was larger than him by a good bit.

    They used to bring me some of their trophy kills. I suppose they wanted me to improve my diet. (Not trying to say that this could happen to anyone in particular.)
