While doing our groceries over the weekend, Carlos stopped
me, and whispered:
But I can’t, so I jokingly tell him I don’t know where it is
in the store so I’ll ask a cashier; then I mimic her on the loudspeaker: “We have a gentleman in need of Preparation H! What aisle is the Preparation H?” And then I say once we find it and head the checkout: “I need a price check on Preparation H? Price check. Preparation H.” Carlos mutters: “I hate you.” But he doesn’t because had the situation been reversed … uh
huh. |

We have had many, many cats over the years and almost
all were good at following the rules; staying off counters and tables; not
sitting on certain pieces of furniture. But this one time:
And they never got on those chairs again … at least not
while we were home. |

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People [NAACP] has issued a travel advisory for … no, not Ukraine, or Russia, Syria or Iran, China or North Korea … but for the state of Florida. The advisory is a response to Governor DeFacist’s attempts to erase Black history and restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in Florida schools, and read, in part: “Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals. Before traveling to Florida, please understand that the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of, and the challenges faced by African Americans and other communities of color.” And now the Human Rights Campaign, the League of United
Latin American Citizens, the Florida Immigrant Coalition and Equality Florida
have joined the NAACP in advising people to avoid visiting or relocating to the
State of Hate. In America. |

Tina Turner. Icon. Diva. Singer. Sex Symbol. Goddess. Survivor.
She started out a little rough, and then it got rougher for her, but she came
through and persevered and taught us all what it looks like to come out of the
darkness and into the light. RIP ... and thank you for the music and the strength. |

A
guy goes into a bar where there’s a robot bartender who says:
The
robot brings back the best martini ever and asks the man:
The robot then proceeds to talk about physics, space exploration, and medical technology. The guy leaves, but he is curious, so the next night he goes back to the bar and the robot asks:
The
robot then starts to talk about NASCAR, Budweiser, and John Deere tractors. And
then the guy leaves but finds it so interesting that returns next night and the
robot asks again:
The
robot leans in real close and says: "Ain’t it awful the way Joe Biden stole the election?” Could’a
happened and could still be happening. |

Marjorie Taylor Greene, Republican Traitor and White Supremacist, was the highest bidder among House Republicans for a cherry “chapstick” used by Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy. Greene made the winning bid for the lip balm after McCarthy sweetened the deal by promising to attend a donor dinner. And this occurred while McCarthy was ALLEGEDLY negotiating with President Biden over the debt ceiling. If Republicans refuse to raise the debt limit—which they do without a thought under Republican Presidents, but never Democrat Presidents—the US will default on its debt for the first time in history which could drive interest rates sky high, devastate the US and world economies, destroy confidence in the dollar, and permanently increase the interest rate the US spends on its debt. Yes, while the country appears to be teetering on default, this is what the GOP does. Large Marge and her Democrat Representative Sean Casten put it the best: “In today’s Democratic caucus meeting, we discussed how devastating a default would be for American families and what we can do to get the GOP to take this seriously. In the House GOP meeting, they auctioned off Kevin McCarthy’s used chapstick.” That’s the GOP; they don’t give a flying fuck if the country is destroyed.  |

A nice slab of beefcake is Alvise Rigo, an actor, a model, and an athlete. But all that matters not because all we need to know is: Would You Hit It?  |
