Okay, Carlos. He gets enraged, well, not enraged, but perhaps overly peeved, at the toilet paper commercial with the Baby Bear picking up his underwear off the bathroom floor.

Why? Well, cuz Mama and daddy and Baby Bears are all in the bathroom and none of them are wearing clothes so why the underwear question, and why do bears sell toilet paper.

I reminded him that geckos sell insurance, turkeys sell nicotine patches, and camel is telling us it’s Hump Day. He said:

“But bears? Underwear? NONE OF THEM ARE WEARING CLOTHES!!!”

I think the lockdown got to him.

PS The best part of working again yesterday was when the phone rang in the afternoon and it was Karen. And she asked what we were all doing, and I explained what was being done and she asked who had shown up; I said:

“Well, everyone’s here.”

Except you.

I have offered up Tuxedo's services to local agencies as the spokes-cat for the lockdown. So far no takers.

I guess it’s good that GOP Senator Kelly Loeffler sold off all her department store stocks and bought medical supply sticks as soon as she learned about COVID-19—and made millions of dollars doing so—because Loeffler has already loaned $10 million to her own campaign and has pledged to spend more.

And, as of now it looks like she’ll lose…millions and her Senate seat.

Sorry, not sorry.

All those people who don’t wear masks and are shouting from the rooftops that God will protect are the same people who need a gun to protect themselves.

God can stop a virus, not a bullet.

_____ has complained to advisers about the way coronavirus deaths are being calculated, suggesting the real numbers are actually lower, and his minions feel the same because they are knuckle-dragging, goose-stepping, sycophants, and have advised him to begin publicly questioning the death toll.

Now, there is no evidence the death rate has been exaggerated, and experts believe coronavirus deaths in the US are being undercounted, not over-counted, but let’s play Devil’s Advocate …

As I write this there have been 81,000+ deaths in America. Let’s say 20% of those are not virus-related, that’s 16,000. That leaves us with 65,000 deaths.

Oh, yeah, that’s must better. Only 65,000 Americans died in 10 weeks. [sarcasm font]

Remember “Click it or Ticket?” Morons hated seatbelts but they saved lives. Maybe we should try … “Mask it or casket.”

More from the Liar-In-Thief … _____ claimed at a press briefing Monday that any American who “wants” a coronavirus test can get one.

Odd then, that just moments before that lie, _____’s own testing coordinator, Brett Giroir, said that tests are mostly reserved for people who “need” one because they present symptoms or are participating in contact tracing.

Liars gonna lie.

I hope this isn’t it’s ‘jump the shark’ moment, but Ryan Murphy’s American Horror Story franchise is expanding with a new anthology series spinoff, American Horror Stories … plural; see the difference?

Sources have described the new project as a companion anthology series to AHS, except, unlike AHS, each episode is a standalone ghost story.

I’m ready …

Rick Bright, the former director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority [BARDA] who alleged in a whistleblower complaint that he was ousted from his position after resisting the _____ administration’s efforts to allow widespread use of hydrooxychloroquine, plans to testify before Congress that way back in January his advice to ramp up production of respirators and medical supplies was ignored.

Another glaring example of the _____ failure to protect people.

So, we’re big Judy Dench fans in this house so last week we watched the true story of Red Joan, a spy for Russia during the last years of WWII. Joan stole information on nuclear weapons and have it to the Russians to, as she claimed, “level the playing  field” so that no one nation had all that power.

Good story, but better was Tom Hughes, left, as her college lover who turned her into a spy, and then silver fox Ben Miles, center, as the older Joan’s son, Nick.

Also, this weekend, we caught another episode of Penny Dreadful: City of Angels and were treated to the sultry, spicy dance moves and ambiguous sexuality of Fly Rico, as played by Sebastian Chacon, right. Muy caliente!
