I realize I feel terrible. I realize that’s coloring how I post. So if you wanna just pass this on by without reading it, I won’t be offended, but I do have a gripe. I’m trying not to be affected by these commercials for animals that are out in the cold where they show me animals being snowed on or animals out in the heat with flies, crawling all over them And I wonder did I need to see that or did they need to just rescue those animals and tell me what kind of conditions they were found in because it’s just disgusting that they were used in a guilt campaign because what else is it? I know I’m supposed to send money because it’s the holiday and my plate is full and I’m surrounded by love and happiness and family and food and these poor animals don’t know where their next meal is coming from. I’ve been in rescue a long time. Sympathy adoptions don’t last. Let him throw a blanket over the cold ones let them shoo the flies and rescue the ones that are out in the heat, but I don’t need to see it before they do. Some of the ones I rescued were in homes and being treated pretty badly one cat in particular. OK, that’s it. I feel better.

Another trip around the sun. Happy Birthday!

Good moaning, good friends. I greet you well.
I'm not feeling good at all due to on-going problems with my lungs. Infection after infection and still no solution; but - hey-ho - I've met people far worse off over the past few months.
I've had Her Indoors sit me up in front of the computer because I was incensed listening to His Majesty's speech before Congress last night.
My loyalty is to the Crown. The person wearing it is a different matter.
In fairness to the King, that "speech to the Democrats" has the Starmer government's paw-prints all over it - and the King delivered it at exactly the same time the execrable Starmer was fighting off an attempt to put the prime minister before a parliamentary scrutiny committee where the truth of what went on during the sordid Peter Mandelson affair would have been extorted. Starmer imposed a three-line whip on his own MPs to head off any rebellion. He, predictably, took the coward's way out.
If you're British then you could spot immediately the several...
Okay, let's start Wednesday off with some fun. Waiting to go to town for jury duty. I am going to do my civic duty. If they ask, I will admit to being a devout Conservative and been on The Gutter since 2020 and let the chips fall where they may.
So here are some memes and thoughts on the WHCD in the
"So Mrs Lincoln, other than that... how was the play?" vein
First 3 are the assassin on floor after capture, The last 2 are from the moment the gunshots were heard.
