I'm sure others have noticed this (and even spoken and written about it) before. I am therefore a bit embarrassed to have just realized that Trump named his social media platform after the propaganda wing of the Russian Government. Pravda, of course, is Russian for "Truth."

Doctor, the patient is suffering from acute ethanol ingestion. Doctor: "Quick, give him a shot of whiskey!"

Have you heard about the guy who thought a frugal horn was just a cheap trumpet?

The bun is the lowest form of wheat. 🤔

From the list of failed musical titles: "York, York".

So, today is Fried, eh?

If Thelonius Monk was a drummer, would he be a Trappist?

Remember Wile E. Coyote from the Road Runner cartoons? He had a brother who was even more given to pursuing impossible goals:🙂 Don Coyote.

Did you hear about the cat that ate cheese, then waited by the mouse hole with baited breath?

My guess is a higher percentage of ICE agents have criminal records than the people they are detaining.

Maybe he's not so far wrong.

@mark-carney.bsky.social‬ What are you thinking with this new bill? I voted Liberal because you seemed to be talking sense during the campaign. I'm already suffering from voter's remorse.

What's up with this @mark-carney.bsky.social‬ ? What happened to "Elbows U" and "Never 51"? This bill will turn Canada into mini-trump-land and pave the way for 51st statehood? www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxWy...

My cats seem to have merged into a two-headed monster this morning.

It's true. Maybe for the first time ever.

The X-Ray from Trump's last medical just leaked #TACO

Poor little Dougal McFearsome. He's developed a bit of dermatitis on his face and I've had to cone him to keep him from scratching it. He's adapted amazingly well. He's such a little trooper. Maybe I should change his name to Ra McGuire. 🙂

The United States desperately needs this woman to be president!

I am insulted that you fought back after I punched you in the face. 😬

As a philosophy major who adored symbolic logic courses, this may be my favorite cartoon ever.

Dougal also helps me clean records. Never mind that the streaks on the window came from when he pushed the record cleaner off the table. 🙂

This was at the top of YouTube's selections for me this morning: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dtpf... and I couldn't help thinking about this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=clTC...

Duncan helps me make the bed

Happy Caturday, everyone, from Duncan McFearsome. 🙂

Dougal always helps me sort the laundry. Here he's keeping the hand towel from escaping while it waits to be joined by it's matching bath towel.

And now: Because the world is so sad... Here's a baby elephant playing with a baby giraffe RS
