@Eric_SchmittIt was great to be back at Mar-a-Lago and spend some time with President Trump during the holiday season. Merry Christmas! #MOSEN #MAGA #AmericaFirst
Dear Lord this my MO AG. He’s running for something, but I thought the Village Idiot term wasn’t up yet. Eric has no dignity.

Humor is not the point.You not liking it is the point.
This is Whitey (aka Furby)
My father named him after a hero cat his family had when he was a young boy - the original Whitey intercepted an off-the-leash German Shepard that had entered their yard and was headed towards his mother, blocked its approach and then chasing it away.
[In the 1930s pets were often named for their pelt colors - spot, brownie, rusty, blackie, etc.]
When my Dad passed just before his 93rd birthday, the year before the pandemic, I gave Whitey a new home with me.

This ties in with the Daunte Wright murder for which Kimberly Potter was convicted yesterday. In both cases, there was no fucking reason for the cops to be firing any kind of weapon.
I get that cops need to be able to defend themselves, and they can make mistakes. But it can’t be ignored.

Looking back i remember laughing, to the point of tears and gut ache, to people who as comedians were the peoples people. Like Buddy Hackett, Milton Berle, Jonathon Winters, Phyllis Diller, Myron Cohen, and many, many more. Who all were socially aware, and unafraid to say so.

Maryland currently has almost twice the new cases it did during the previous height of the pandemic, and our positivity rate is over 12%. (Maryland hasn’t been reporting deaths since Dec 4th). And we’re one of the better vaccinated states.
Our holidays are held at my sister’s home in Ohio, and she’s high risk (Lupus). Besides myself, the other members of my family either also live in Ohio or in Texas.
I did make a mini version of my family’s Christmas Eve dinner for myself - prime rib au ju.

Take it up with Barf and the 5 Cons. I’m certain they’ll be a sympathetic audience.

I just found out that latkes give off these baby french fries made of one shred of potato or beet. They are tiny but tasty!
shredded (potato, beet, yam, carrot, celeriac, some type of onion). Combine some or all of these in equal parts. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika to taste with enough egg and flour to glue it all together when it’s all been stirred. If it’s not glued well enough it makes more little french fries.

It was pointed out somewhere in the 400 comments above that Fox News is on in other places than homes. So airport lounges, bars, and waiting rooms of all sorts.
It would be interesting to see the numbers from Fox compared to CNN.

Whitey looks like he knows a thing or two.

And the people who say “Well he shouldn’t have resisted”, or “Why didn’t he comply”, I wonder if they say the same thing when police are chasing a white person and they call it off for safety reasons?

But what about Grandpa Jones, when he would get very descriptive about menu items. Hog jowls with black-eyed peas and collard greens and red eye gravy, with grits and biscuits on the side.

Few things inspire more second-hand embarrassment than watching a “comedy host” almost apologize to you.
“Please clap laugh.”

I thought so too. Kinda like Laugh-In but with better music. (Though Laugh-In did have The Holy Modal Rounders.)

Good looking kitteh.
I suspect Furby is a lap cat. Something my kitteh doesn’t know how to be even after 15 years of kindness and decent treatment. He began life with a feral mom and sibling in the alley behind our house. Something really traumatic happened because his mom and sibling one day were gone. I coaxed him into our cat porch and he got along famously with our two cats and dog. But not with us. It took him 10 years to get up the courage to let me put a kind hand on him. He found that hey that’s kinda nice.
