I Didn't Say It ...

Ana Navarro, The View cohost, slamming Caitlyn Jenner for whining about the way she’s being treated as a trans woman by The Regime:

"I'm going to quote trans advocate Janetta Johnson, who said this in 2015: 'Jenner is a rich, white bitch. She can pay for everything she needs. But I think she now needs to put some of that money back into the transgender community, as she has taken a lot. All these years, we've been abused and battered, yet she's used none of her power to help the community.’ Caitlyn Jenner? Girl, cry me a river. Let me play my little violin for you. Changing the marker on the passports is an executive order that he signed on day one, so if you think he didn't know what he was doing, if you think he wasn't fulfilling a campaign promise because, as you say, he absolutely exploited this issue in order to get people to the polls. I think there's a special place in hell for people who only care about themselves and don't care about the effect on others.”

The saddest thing of all is that Jenner doesn’t even see her hypocrisy; she seems to be begging us to feel sorry for her when she stood up and voted for a regime that has tried to erase trans people from the start, and by her own support, and involvement, remember she ran for governor of California in 2021 as a Republican, the party that has worked to remove trans people, to deny trans people.

Don’t feel sorry for her, she is the problem.

Hasan Piker, American Twitch streamer, influencer, and left-wing political commentator, speaking at Harvard:

“[Cankles’] budget manages to be $361 billion larger than last year, despite cutting $300 billion in social programs and public investments. All of that money is going to policing and endless war. It’s not going for bridges, tunnels, and it’s not going to healthcare. Every single one of you, regardless of your political affiliation, should consider that money stolen from you.”

How do you make America better when you spend billions on war instead of billions on America? How do you make America better by making the majority of Americans poorer while giving tax breaks to the richest 1%?

That doesn’t work; time for a regime change.

Bernie Sanders, Democrat Senator from Vermont, on the need for a new Democratic party that truly reflects Democrats:

“The Democratic Party needs a major transformation. It can no longer be a top-down, billionaire-funded, consultant-driven party. It must be a multi-generational, multi-racial, working-class party. In a time of growing oligarchy and authoritarianism, that’s the only path to victory.”

It should be, could be, the party of We The People, not We The Rich, We The Corporation, We The White Man, We The Christian.

Vote Blue no matter who.

Zohran Mamdani, Democrat Socialist Mayor of New York City, on politics today:

“To be honest, I don’t think too much about how Republicans portray me. The power of an ideology is judged in the worth of its delivery—to be told a city-run grocery store is implausible but $500 million per day to kill people in Iran and Lebanon is necessary speaks to a broken politics.”

Healthcare is impossible because, as Cankles said, we have a war to fund; Medicaid and Medicare, too, cannot be funded when war is to be waged to enrich the richest among us. Think of how much could be done in America, and for Americans, with $500 million a day.

Wil Wheaton, actor, writer, blogger, and voice actor, on Nazi Tucker Carlson’s sudden swift on Cankles:

“Hi Tucker Carlson. It’s me, a normal person who you mocked and bullied when we tried to warn you about all of this, who doesn’t have your wealth and privilege to insulate himself from the consequences of  your support for a criminal. Yep, you fucked up. Yep, you were wrong. Glad you’re finally aware [but] no, you are not forgiven. No, you are not welcomed with open arms. You can go fuck yourself you opportunistic coward. Have the day you voted for.”

Tucker carried water for Cankles, lied for Cankles lied about Cankles for the last ten years or so and now his eyes opened and he sees Cankles for the rapist, racist, con artist that he is?

Hey, Fucker, I saw him for what he is years before he ever glided down that gold escalator to announce his first bid for the White House, but his racism and hate for all things non-white suited you just fine so you propped him up.

You got what you wanted and your change of heart is meaningless.

Jon Ossoff, Democrat Senator from Georgia, at a Georgia reelection rally:

“I don’t know if you saw, but JD Vance was in Georgia this week. Don’t worry—no one showed up. The stadium was empty. But JD came to UGA to attack the pope two days after [Cankles] depicted himself as Jesus Christ. Did you hear what the president said two weeks ago? Quote: ‘It’s not possible … for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid or Medicare… We can only afford to fund war.’ Because draft-dodging [Cankles] loves sending other people’s children to war. Instead? A war no one voted for and no one can explain. And the daily, the hourly lying to the American public about why we’re at war, whether we’ve won, what’s been agreed to, not to mention the insane genocidal threat. On day 10 of the war, the president said, quote: ‘The war is very complete.’ That was day 10. Then, day 11: ‘Going to be finished pretty quickly.’ Day 12: ‘We won.’ Day 21: ‘Getting very close.’ Day 32: ‘Leaving very soon.’ Day 40: ‘Total and complete victory.’”

Cankles said yesterday that he will end Iran if they don’t capitulate and then turned right around and changed his mind again.

This is who is in charge? A bumbling, demented, Adderall-addicted child raping grifter? We can, and should, do better.

This Tale of Carlos is about Carlos and Thomas, the cat.

Years before Carlos and I met, he would walk his dog through the neighborhood and one day he came upon this very large cat sitting on a fence post. As he and the dog passed the cat jumped down and followed them. On the return trip home, the cat climbed back onto the fence post to ... wait for someone else I guess?

This happened for weeks and each day the cat would follow Carlos and the dog closer to Carlos’ house until one day he came into the house and never left. Thomas, he was named, and Carlos took him to the animal hospital where he worked to see if Thomas could be adopted out since no one from the neighborhood claimed him. Carlos gave Thomas in a cat bed on the counter but Thomas wouldn’t lay down; he sat upright and refused to move until a client came in and then he’d scare them by turning his head—many thought he was a stuffed cat.

But no one took him home so Carlos kept him, and I met him a few years later and he was a beast, but a lovable beast. He liked to travel the neighborhood and lay in people’s yards but then come home to us for dinner sand bed. One day Thomas didn’t return and a neighbor came to tell us that their dog had chased Thomas, who by then was too old to run fast, and killed him. The neighbor assumed that a silk orchid and a Publix gift card was the right gift for having your cat killed.

Carlos and I cried because the beast was gone but he had a darn fine life with Carlos, and then me and the dog and seven other cats.

And here he is …

This Tale of Tuxedo is from way back in June 2009 …

Apparently somebody had a rough night, because, right after breakfast, he was back in bed. Perhaps this explains the empty bottle of vodka I found under the couch.

He was his daddy’s boy!

Caitlyn Jenner recently admitted to something we all knew … she’s a hypocrite, who worked against transwomen in sports while she played in the Pro/Am golf circuit … and now she’s playing the Poor Me card. See, she is begging Cankles for help after the gender marker on her passport was changed from female to male and crying about it on Fox News:

“Recently, I had my passport, I had to get it renewed. I sent it back, comes back gender marker ‘M’ … So now … what do I do? This is a safety factor. I can’t travel internationally anymore. I can’t use my passport.”

Neither can any other trans person you coward but you only care about it when it affects you personally even though you voted for it.

Take a fucking seat.

A little-known fact about me was that I ran track in high school and college. I was pretty good except for when we had meets against this other school and I always placed second to this other guy. No matter how I tried I could never ever get ahead of him and to this day I cannot think of why that happened.

That Woman’s facelift is ALLEGEDLY not keeping up with the Kardashian matriarch. Rumor has is that she is very unhappy that her $100,000 facelift is failing almost a year after getting the procedure done. And so now she’s looking into a “revision” after comparing her results to those of her fellow celebrities …

… Before her new face completely slides off and reveals her actual lizard mug.

See, l

Poor Kristi DogKiller Noem has had a rough few weeks ... after getting fired mid-speech at a Nashville conference ... and after ALLEGEDLY finding out about her husband Bryon’s bimbofication fetish ... after claiming to be “blindsided” by Byron’s addiction until the story broke that Bryon had gone to a Christian-based counseling back rehab in January which she knew about.

See, like Cankles, when Kristi’s lips move she’s either lying or blowing Corey on a jet. But now it appears that Cankles—who humiliated her by promising  a fake job to make sure she missed the filing deadline to run for a Senate seat—is about to hire Cameron Hamilton to run FEMA … a year after Noem fired him from that job.

Karma is a bitch, and somewhere Cricket the dog is laughing!

Remember when the Texas GOP voted to redraw the districts in their state to give an edge to the Rapist-Racist-Fascist-Pedophile In-Chief and then cheered at the thought of taking away the will of the people?

Well, in Virginia they put a redistricting measure on the ballot and the people of Virginia voted Yes.

Guess which outcome has the GOP in tears?

Matteo Ferri is a 25-year-old Italian model now based in New York City, you know, so he’s close by … soooooo, Would You Hit It?

Architecture Wednesday: From Stable to Tiny House

In 1850, this apartment was nothing more than a small stable at the end of a typical Parisian paved courtyard overlooking Boulevard Garibaldi. It had a tiled roof supported by an oak framework with a hayloft on the first floor.

At that time, the Boulevard Garibaldi was the rampart between the city of Paris and the beginning of the city of Issy. Between 1853 and 1870, the boulevard was built and the stable was incorporated into a Haussmanian building facing the boulevard. With the disappearance of the horses and the appearance of the metro, a façade was created and the stable became a small apartment.

In 2024, the apartment underwent a complete renovation. Everything was transformed and renovated. Curves are an integral part of this achievement; they hug the existing walls and facades and link the spaces together.

The main space is one room with an angled wall and windows open to the street; a small living and dining area fills that nook with a nice modern kitchen at the other end. It is a small space, clearly, but the high ceilings and unused attic space allowed for the creation of an additional level for a sleeping loft linked to the main floor by a custom-made curved staircase.

The project gives full place to natural materials and traditional techniques to give a second breath of life to the building: a crawl space regulates the humidity of the ground; the oak framework was repaired, lightened, and sanded; and the stone walls were plastered with a mixture of natural lime and pigments. The brick façade walls are insulated from the outside with wood fiber and a lime-hemp plaster is sprayed on the inside.

It's not for me, because that small living area would drive me crazy, but I love the rest of it … perhaps if I could bust through the space next door and add a few feet to the living room?

Ain't That America XXXVIII

What a long, strange week it’s been, with the GOP clusterfucking all over the place about Pope Leo and Cankles latest AI-generated Epstein Deflection posts. And with JD Vance failing to forge a treaty with Iran, failing to get Viktor Orban re-elected in Hungary and failing to follow his Catholic faith as he, too, tells the Pope to take a seat.

So, what else happened …

US Transportation Secretary and Reality Star Sean Duffy says it makes a lot of sense to hire gamers to address a shortage of air traffic controllers.

They play games and you want to insert them into real-life situations?

This is the Regime.

 

We all know that, like his wives, Cankles has a complicated relationship with the Bible. He has often called it his favorite book, has posed with it for photographers outside a church and has sold his own edition for $60, but cannot utter a single passage as his favorite.

So now, after fighting with Pope Leo and portraying himself on social media as Dr. Jesus H. Christ, Cankles will participate in a marathon reading of the entire Bible in Washington.

The Bible and reading; one thing he doesn’t understand and the other thing he can’t do.

In Texas, where some estimates say nearly 10% of the work force is undocumented—compared with about 4.5% of the US work force—the Texas Restaurant Association wants the Regime to create work permits for “long-term, law-abiding immigrants playing critical roles from farms to restaurants.”

I guess those darn immigrants aren’t stealing jobs in Texas, they’re just doing jobs Texans don’t want to do.

Oh the hypocrisy.

 

PeeWee German’s wife, Katie “Eva Braun” Miller says childless rates among men and women differ according to political ideology. For instance, 60% of “extremely liberal” men report being childless, while 22% of “extremely conservative” men were childless and Katie’s response was brief:

“Liberal men aren’t attractive.”

This from the woman married to Stephen Miller.

 

Cankles stirred up a hornet’s nest, even deep within his MAGAt base, when he shared an AI-generated image portraying himself as Jesus Christ. The image, posted to Truth Social, shows Cankles in a Christ-like role, healing a sick patient while surrounded by followers. The post quickly spread across social media through the night until he finally deleted it and then claimed he thought the picture was of him as a doctor.

Seriously.

 

GOP Representative Lauren Boebert stunned reporters this week by chastising “horny” lawmakers in Congress; her comments came in the wake of sex scandals involving Eric Swalwell  and Tony Gonzales, both of whom resigned from Congress.

Does she think anyone has forgotten the video of herself in a public theater watching a musical version of Beetlejuice while stick her hands in between the thighs of her date to grope him?

Seriously Gropert, sit down.

 

Clearly in the White House it’s always Happy Hour for Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent who this week confused the name of the Strait of Hormuz, a key waterway for the world’s petroleum market, with his beverage of choice:

“The U.S. kept their side on the ceasefire. We’ve stopped firing. The Straits of Vermouth have not been completely reopened, so we will see ….”

I do think the strait is owned and operated by the country of Martini.

 

Former GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley indicated that she won’t seek the GOP nomination in 2028.

She failed to mention that no one had asked her to run.

Judge Darrin Gayles, U.S. District Court in Miami, dismissed Cankles’ $10 billion lawsuit against media baron Rupert Murdoch and The Wall Street Journal, which claimed the newspaper defamed Cankles with a story about the birthday card he’d sent his PBFF—Pedophile Best friend Forever—Jeffrey Epstein.

Gayles dismissed the civil complaint because Cankles had “not plausibly alleged that the Defendants published the Article with actual malice.”

It’s not malice when it’s fact.

 

U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Bryan in Minnesota has ordered the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security to turn over unredacted evidence in Nicole Renee Good’s January 7 killing within three weeks.

In a comprehensive discovery order, Bryan directed the Regime to produce not only photos, videos, and audio recordings from 30 minutes before to 60 minutes after the shooting, but also ICE officer Jonathan Ross’s training and personnel files, cellphone extraction reports, witness statements, and internal DHS and ICE use-of-force policies. The order also requires disclosure of Ross’s medical and psychological fitness evaluations after the shooting, widening scrutiny beyond the shooting itself to the federal government’s training, oversight, and post-incident response.

Justice needs to happen for Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti.

 

Democrat Analilia Mejía won a New Jersey special election for the U.S. House after defeating Republican Joe Hathaway on a message of standing up to thew Regime and defending progressive policies.

The Blue Wave continues.

The Dream City Church, a megachurch in Phoenix was supposed to be a venue for Cankles to drum up support among the young voters but instead he found an audience whose members skewed older and were focused on divisions within their own party. Sadly, Demented DonOLD didn’t notice the lack of young people:

“I want to thank all the young people. I’ve never seen so many young people.”

It seemed odd he thought he saw so many young people when the church, which holds about 4,000 people was barely half full.

Keep this up. Keep up the rage and resistance; keep up the demand for the release of all Epstein files and get yourselves ready for the next big protest on May 1st. The May Day Strong movement is organizing protests, marches, and a general strike featuring "No Work, No School, No Shopping" actions that demand “Workers Over Billionaires," protesting against economic inequality, anti-immigrant policies, and corporate influence to prove that We The People and not the billionaires have the power.

And remember …
