Carlos grew up in a fairly well-to-do family; there was a maid and a housekeeper and a nanny for Little Carlos. But the way he refuses to throw anything out makes me feel like he grew up in tenement slum. He will not get a new bar of soap for the bathtub until the current bar is so thin it looks like tissue paper. And then the other day I asked if we had any leftover chicken to make a sandwich at lunch; he told me No but said there was plenty of guacamole left from the previous night’s dinner if I wanted it. Imagine my surprise at finding “plenty” of guacamole in the fridge. I smeared it on a single Cheez-It and gobbled it up in a single bite. Then I reached for the cartoon frying pan …  |

This is Dogs V Cats from March 2020 … Excerpts from Ozzo's Diary: Excerpts from Tuxedo's diary: They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength. The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet. Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a 'good little hunter' I am. Bastards. There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of 'allergies.' I must learn what this means and how to use it to my advantage. Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow ... from the top of the stairs. I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released--and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously an idiot. The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicating with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now... |

Tonea
Nicole Miller, a 27-year-old Black woman originally from Flint, Michigan, was
found dead, hanging from a tree in Gwen Cherry Park in Gladeview, Florida last
month. Authorities
from the Miami-Dade Police Department initially labeled her death as a suicide involving no immediate signs of foul play while few media outlets reported on the incident ALLEGEDLY because it
was classified as a suicide. Her family and community members are strongly
rejecting the suicide ruling and would like her death fully investigated. The
timing of her death, occurring right around the Juneteenth holiday weekend,
combined with the history of racial violence in the United States, has
triggered immense pain, distrust, and public skepticism. Tonea's loved ones are
demanding full autopsy results, and push for a thorough, transparent
independent investigation. Meanwhile,
Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today show anchor Savannah
Guthrie, who was kidnapped from her home in Tucson, Arizona, on February 1, 2026,
is still in the news regularly. Sounds
about white. |

It has been so hot and sticky around here, and not in the
good way, that even the Hot Cakes are too darn hot! |

After a few asshatted and blatantly racist rulings, this week SCOTUS rejected Cankles’ efforts to overturn the sexual assault AND defamation charges against him in relation to E Jean Carroll. He is still legally a rapist. And then … SCOTUS upheld birthright citizenship, affirming
all persons born in America are U.S. citizens at birth. |
 |
But then … SCOTUS also ruled 6-3 that states can ban
transgender girls and women from female sports teams. Justice Brett “Drunken Rapist” Kavanaugh wrote the majority
opinion stating that Title IX allows schools to decide sports eligibility based
on biological sex. Fuck the court. |

Dear Texas … when asked about the US affordability crisis
one of your Representatives, Troy Nehls, told a reporter that he will be eating
lobster tails and rib-eye steaks this Fourth of July. And when asked about
struggling Americans being unable to afford such a meal, Nehls said: "Maybe the 60% of Americans don't work as hard as I do.” In 2025, Nehls worked in Congress for 151 legislative days;
in 2026, that number will be even lower. And don’t forget Nehls earned a base
salary of $174,000 per year for working half the year but he works harder than
you and gets full healthcare for free. Do better Texas. |

Guille Castillo is a Barcelona-born model and a professional dancer who made his debut at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week 2025 so would you dance with him and then Would You Hit It?  |
I am reading a book titled "Human-ish". The author describes how, given the chance, your cats would eat you. When a dog licks your face, they are not kissing you, they are checking how you taste. Your description of the cats thought process, is very likely.
ReplyDeleteA mixture of smiles and astonishment in your post today. How can one person's life be so much more important than another's?
ReplyDeleteThe Fake President has become incredibly rich during his second term in office so why doesn't he pay up the relatively small amount of money he owes to E Jean Carroll? After all, he has reached the very end of the line when it comes to legal appeals so how on earth can he get away with not paying up? $5.8 million is as nothing to the world's biggest grifter and E Jean Carroll is an old lady. She could do with the dough.

2/3 of SCOTUS is NOT fit for purpose and at least 1/2 of that 2/3 fails to act appropriately; anyone would think they were con artists not senior judges.
ReplyDeleteIt's a yes to Guille. You forgot to mention how the Supreme Court's only Oreo wrote a 91 page dissent. I find it amazing that one man can have so much hatred towards his own race.
ReplyDeleteI can’t imagine what it must be like for Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson. But thank the goddess they’re there to do what they can. When it comes to leftovers, Carlos and SG is exact opposites. And SG was NOT brought up in a well-to-do family. Go figure. I’m sorry old Hot Cakes finds it too hot to do anything. But I’ll be right over and he doesn’t have to do a thing.
