I never leave my parrots and dogs alone together if the birds are out of their cages. I do this because I don’t ever want there to be an “accident” in which a bird loses to a dog’s teeth. I thought I was protecting the birds.

So yesterday I’m cleaning bird cages and Wilson, my conure, climbs to the top of his cage while the door is open. As I take my head out from his cage where I was cleaning the inside, my first thought was that Nayla was too close and too interested and I needed to keep Continue reading →

Anyone out there who is surprised that the Republican health care bill gives tax breaks to the rich while taking money away from Medicaid should rethink their ability to live independently because they clearly do not have the brain cells needed.

Why are Republicans such a mean group? Why do they hate kindness and compassion? Have they never read the words of the New Testament… you know, the book purportedly stating what Jesus Christ preached? Because if they have, I don’t see how any of them can call themselves Christians, or even nice human beings. Continue reading →

Trying to find the right combination of medications to allow my Nayla to be groomed without her being traumatized or my groomer being bit. We are on the fourth combination of medications and at best they slow her down maybe a step. What the hell is this dog made of? She should be flat out and snoring. instead, she’s still wrestling Snowy for the toy and begging for treats. I might as well have been giving her pills filled with water for all the effect they’ve had. Wow. Respect. Continue reading →

Please contact your senator and tell him or her that developing a health care plan with no public or female input is wrong, wrong, wrong. Those old white men need to come out from behind closed doors and stop doing it in secret. What assholes. Continue reading →

If someone in Hollywood had scripted a cabinet meeting with the dialog we heard yesterday from a real one, the writer would have been told it was too bizarre to even touch reality and that no one would buy it. And yet, there is was for all to see. Good thing Orangeman has a huge ass given how hard he was making all his Cabinet members suck on it at once. Continue reading →

Every week I get spam comments on this site from robots selling everything from education to… for some bizarre reason… porn. Don’t get me wrong. I have nothing against porn. If that’s your thing, go for it. But I was raised to be a good Catholic little girl and I still can’t bring myself to even search for porn on my computer. I’m sure the day I do, I’ll drop dead and then everyone will see a porn search in my browser history and my reputation… never good under the best of circumstances… will further be denigrated.

And yes, this Continue reading →

So Republicans think impeaching a president over an Oval Office sex scandal is ok but impeaching a president for colluding with Russia, lying to the public and pressuring the FBI into a political decision are all within the realm of acceptable behavior.

Those dudes must have a really weird sex life.  Or maybe they were just mad that he was getting some on the side and they can’t get any from anyone without paying for it. Continue reading →
