Tokyo City Blues


This Golden served as an adoptive mother to baby tigers, and she continues keeping them in line even when they're massive. (IG)

Baby bear and baby tiger become frenz. (IG)

Another sus friendship.

Every man not-so-secretly yearns to raise a wolf. (IG)

Not all heroes wear capes.

Remember when you were a kid, and your shadow was your only friend? Or was that just me? (IG)

Awww: Mother Golden visits sick son at the pet emergency room.

Chipmunk yoga.

Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing.

I got a fast dog...

No! Don't throw that corgi out of the airplane!

Cats sleep in funny positions sometimes.

"I got a stick!"

Rescuing a cat who climbed beyond his reach.

Kitten thinks he's Tim Walz. He's flashing Jazz Hands like they're gang signs.

Teasing a poor doggo with his favorite words.

The right way to care for your dog during a hurricane.

Dog meets the new kittens.

Aw.

Making frenz with the new kid.

Sliding into the weekend like...

9 Semi-Willowed: Whitmer has already apologized:

“Over 25 years in public service, I would never do something to denigrate someone's faith. I’ve used my platform to stand up for people’s right to hold and practice their personal religious beliefs. My team has spoken to the Michigan Catholic Conference. What was supposed to be a video about the importance of the CHIPS Act to Michigan jobs, has been construed as something it was never intended to be, and I apologize for that.”

40 Whitmer killed almost as many elderly people during Covid as Cuomo. She supports nine month partial birth abortions. She also supports disfiguring children in the name of “gender care”. At best she’s an apostate, at worse she is a demon.

Belonging to a particular faith means you follow all the beliefs, tenets and statutes. You don’t get to pick and still call yourself a member of that faith.

The funny part is I never initiate those conversations. People engage me and I share with them what I know about the faith. It’s not option it’s fact. Then you also realize that for some going to mass is some rote, banal activity. They don’t listen or understand aspects such as the apostles creed nor do they really understand church teachings.

A lot of those people have vanished from our parishes. The past few years of increasing orthodoxy, the Mass becoming more traditional, exhortations to receive the Host on the tongue, etc. are driving them away.

Huge dropoff just before Covid-time when a priest was removed for being gay. Covid accelerated the process. Parish is now younger and more orthodox, but the student site still has a handful of holdouts.

83 The funny part is I never initiate those conversations. People engage me and I share with them what I know about the faith. It’s not option it’s fact. Then you also realize that for some going to mass is some rote, banal activity. They don’t listen or understand aspects such as the apostles creed nor do they really understand church teachings.

Cultural Catholics. My stepmother is one of them. Second-generation Italian, goes to Mass, hates when the priest talks about abortion, etc.

This is what I don't understand about any inos.

If you don't follow the beliefs or planks, say of the democrat party as an example, why would you want to acknowledge you are a democrat in name only? What part if any of the democrat policies do you adhere to? Abortion? open borders?

Do people just like to have an accepted label to pretend they belong to one side? or so they can pretend they don't belong to the other side.

I believe a lot of that depends on the individual. For some it’s simply part of who they are. Either they’ve grown up with it, or “inherited” it from their parents. In terms of politics a lot of times it comes from people’s experiences with things like college. You have to posses some empathy. It’s a confusing world and people are bombarded with confusion that leads to a state of pathos. You can’t live your life according to emotion. Otherwise you become irrational and easily persuaded by fallacies and lies. The trick is to seek the truth in all things, wherever that leads. It’s not an easy road as I can attest. But it is greatly fulfilling. Greatly. Like nothing else of this earth.

When they were young, a woman carrying or using birth control meant she was a slut, and no worthy man would have anything to do with her. What was likely was that that a guy would "sweep her off her feet" and then she would have sex, hoping that he would marry her.

Then she got pregnant, and her Good Catholic Girl reputation would be ruined, so a discrete abortion was the key to finding the dream husband.

It is now 50 years out of date, but they still live in that world.

Cramer is often wrong, but he's often right as well. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of stocks, and the fact that he's run a successful hedge fund in the past does give him real-world experience that is, at the very least, entertaining.

In general, however, you'd do better not to trust the financial news networks for investment advice. They are legging into the good trades before they go on camera, and they'll never tell you to sell. Entertainment, not information.

I don't see an actual 'gong'. He still has his sound-board but he seems to have toned the whole persona down a few notches. No more wall-of-shame, for example. I get the feeling his network bosses reined him in a bit and control the editorial content more. I think he needs to be careful because if people think he's recommending stocks based on 'woke network criteria' rather than his knowledge and experience viewers will turn away in droves. I think maybe he'd be better off following his old pal Kudlow on Fox Business.

Even temporarily exceeding 1.5 degrees Celsius before bringing temperatures back down — a scenario known as an “overshoot” — could cause sea level rises and other disastrous repercussions that might last millenia.

232 202 Trump's in Reno right now and as soon as they get him away from the BlackJack table he's going to speak at the rally.

Would like Trump to sing "Luck be a Lady" at the table as the side bets stack like a Russian attack during a game of Advanced Squad Leader.

233 It's getting a bit late in the season to have him clipped but I might do it anyway. His ears are always sticker magnets.

234 Yet keeping the Martha's Vineyard Mansion? My guess is his grift isn't paying as much and he's cutting costs. Also, I love all the 'could' qualifiers in that snippet you posted. Almost like those #SCIENCEtists are making shit up.

235 231 I watch Kudlow every day. I think he's great. Truly seems to enjoy what he does, does it with good humor, and confidant enough to be mildly self-effacing. He displays 'joy'.

Sinatra always did the intro's the songs he did. Many singers don't do that.

Amidst all the talk of polling and turnout and other normal election stuff there is something much more fundamental going on. The old lines of Team Blue vs Team Red that happen every election in our lifetime are breaking down and we are getting back to much more fundamental issues.

On one side are people of all colors, religions, genders, whatever who just love this country and want it to flourish as it always has and those who hate this country and want to tear it down and change it supported by those who have gotten rich and powerful doing so. It's blatantly obvious. Trump isn't a Republican let alone a conservative no matter what badge he wears in the election. He's just an American who loves this country.

No matter what happens the old ways are over and it's way past time.

240 135 We abandoned the Catholic church during Covid, as they essentially abandoned us. The Church restricted access and made little effort to do anything useful. Meanwhile, the local evangelical churches were meeting outside in the parking lot, doing what they could to continue the practice of their faith. Cafeteria Catholics is an apt description of a lot of the Krazyfornia Catholics I met.

Covid plus Trump plus the Latin Mass is what drew me to Catholicism.

242 Bride and I cannot make it to Texas this year.

We had been planning it, but she will be undergoing IV antibiotics for Lyme for a couple of weeks.

She is making me take her to dinner in a town that is not here (Laramie or Cheyenne, most likely). She has a restless nature, but she also has physical issues that make long road trips problematic. She is also insisting that we take my truck, which means that she will likely say "Ooh, that forest road looks cool. let's drive up there."

I kinda like her.

Olive oil, lemon, garlic, grated onion, oregano, salt and pepper- those are the basics, with your personal preference of thyme orred pepper (for spicy gyro). Fresh is the key, and don't skimp on the olive oil or garlic!!
