The other night I was cleaning up after dinner and I saw something on the countertop and I politely said to Carlos:

“What in the holy hell is this Jed Clampett, petrified wood  contraption doing on my counter?”

“I was hoping you’d see it.”

“See it, it confirms that we are officially white trash.”

The ‘it’ in question was a whisk that Carlos thought needed a bigger handle so he went into the yard and cut a branch off a tree and turned that into a handle. He then, apparently, used the whisk to stir the Special Roadkill Stew he’d prepared for dinner.

It’s not really much of a struggle for Tuxedo, but he is doing his part and being very patrioti-cat.

It’s kind of shocking that Florida can build a Concentration Camp in the Everglades in four days but can’t help its own citizens in an actual hurricane.

There’s a reason why the “Big Beautiful Bill’s” Medicaid cuts don’t hit until 2027. The GOP planned to blow it up after the Midterms to blame the Democrats whom they are afraid will be taking over Congress.

Don’t forget the truth.

Sometimes, just walking through a meadow in the middle of nowhere you can spot some cakes in the wild.

The other morning after breakfast I was in the bedroom changing into a pair of Causal-Lay-About-The-House-Because-It’s-Sunday-and-I-Want-To-Read shorts … specifically the black ones. I said to Carlos:

“Have you seen my black shorts?”

“I haven’t seen any black shorts in about three years.”

I guffawed.

“Blind humor is funny. But I can’t find my black shorts.”

“Are they in the laund-“

“No.”

“Are they in the hamp-“

“No.”

“Are they in another drawe-“

“No.”

“Are you wearing them already.”

Silence.

“And they call me the blind one.”

Last week y’all weighed in on The Great Kitchen Island Debate going on at Casa Bob y Carlos where Carlos didn’t want his sheet pans stored on the other side of the island from where there are now because he didn’t want to have to walk the 24 inches …

This week I spoke with the cabinet maker and they have faux door panels so we can move the door to Sheet Pan Central to where it’s always been and leave everything else as designed with faux door panels making it all look seamless.

Happy now?

Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum has sent a group of firefighters and rescue personnel to help search for flood victims in Texas. After all the hate from this regime. After all the racism toward brown people from this regime. After all the anti-immigration policies aimed at brown people. She helped. She did the right thing … for a Red state that would never do the same for her.

That’s leadership and power; that’s a woman.
