Mmmmm beef and zucchini….yum

Let’s all aspire to this level of class and composure. My goddess, she is amazing.

Had the same convo with a friend today. She was so sad for her dad who was an epic reader and can’t read print after a serious stroke. Et viola! Libby, your library card, and free audio books to the rescue!!

Duckass

Fucking class act. Better than the dems deserve.

I keep thinking about someone I know (my son, my son did this, I’m a failure as a mother) who voted for Jill Stein saying “Kamala is a hawk who is too strong on the war machine and supports Israel.” I only forgave him because we live in Louisiana and our votes don’t count in presidential elections.

Robert, can you guide me to a link that will help me know more about this? Thank you! You always raise all the right issues, and this one is especially pertinent today.

I was in Slovenia with a bad UTI a couple years ago. My husband’s friend worked in the health department and was to get me a 1 dose antibiotic that is not available in the U.S. I haven’t had a UTI since. Drs and big pharma make too much money off UTIs to let us have a one dose cure in the U.S.

Gotta love a good middle grade reader joke

Doris Lessing, Toni Morrison, Joyce Carol Oates, Alice Munro, Lorrie Moore, Maya Angelou, Sue Grafton, Alice Hoffman—this actually is not that hard. I didn’t even get to the 19th Century yet. But I know what you’re saying.

If only there was such kindness during Mardi Gras.

Nailed it

Everything the Republicans do backfires. They are their own worst enemy,addicted to cutting off their noses to spite their face. We just need to keep giving them enough rope to "hang" themselves.

Hubris is karma's next of kin.

Sure, don’t even mention Louisiana. Everybody forgets about Louisiana, but we got two of the biggest duck asses going. Senator & Dr.“Cower Like a Kicked Dog” Cassidy and Senator “Fog Horn Leg Horn” Kennedy. C’mon, put some respect on the #bestworststate

Here Lies by Olivia Clare Friedman

It depends on how you define irrelevant.

But why insult cockroaches like that?

Really recommend the book Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman for its insightful takedown of productivity messaging and routines plus lots of new ways to think about productivity at a deeper, more gratifying level.

I once saw a dog pee on his own face in a moment of extreme fear and excitement. Like a dog kicked by an abusive master, Cassidy can’t decide if her should cower or show his teeth, so instead he pees on his own face.

Now that’s a good gift especially if the person who gave it you wants to read it aloud with you!

The call is ALWAYS coming from inside the house. Every fucking time.

With New Memoir, Newsom Wants Americans to Know He Struggled Growing Up

What will it take for tall, patrician, wooden, out-of-touch, to-the-manor-born white dudes to wake up and realize the world doesn’t want them? Gov. Newsom, I’d like to meet Al Gore, John Kerry, and Mitt Romney. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/01/u...

Yeah, straight up fascism is the term they are looking for

Let’s start an anti-fan club and waste time trolling him just because he’s the worst

Despite his smooth, plausible, “nice-guy” persona, anyone with the least bit of discernment knows David Brooks is a morally bankrupt and dangerously vapid lickspittle of the neoliberal establishment. He has egg all over his flunky face because he & his ilk are the true Trump enablers.

Where do you like to do on Mardi Gras day? I am usually lingering by the hour at Tuba Fats Square. It would be fun to meet up. Also if you want to get the insider scoop on the Box of Wine Parade, I can hook you up on Bacchus Sunday.

You should launch a carnival travel agency so lazy ass revelers like me can let you show us all the carnivals? I want to see Ponce, Trinidad, Martinique, Dominica, Bolivia and Bahia, little towns in Spain and Italy where they whip you and throw mud on you. Where will your first tour take us?
