I think Tina Peters was an election official in Colorado who made a copy of some data on a voting machine because she suspected fraud from the Soros SOS and was prosecuted for election tampering or some such BS. She didn't do any tampering, just made a copy of the data is what I read about the case.

Posted by: NCK it is very rare to find any pitbulls, nearly everything is a "pit mix" and if you read the studies about those you see that there's no meaningful standard for determining what is a pit and what is not, it is usually done by visual identification and the standards vary from region to region across country. find something you have a good report with and youre food to go Posted by: n at December 11, 2025 08:22 PM (7neCS) 93

I have to get a DNA test done on Reef. The shelter portrayed him as a Blue Heeler mix, which i knew was bullshit, but I liked his eye. He has rotweiler coloring but is built more like a greyhound as he has grown. He has some small ticking which means blue wheeler is in the mix. More energy than any ten dogs I have ever had.

The real reality is pit bull is not a real breed. It's a name for dogs with a mix of terrier breeds. Terriers tend to be aggressive. It's their nature. Different breeds do have different characteristics just like horses and other animals. Doesn't mean they can't be raised to be good pets but no, all breeds are not the same.

I think the two oldest ladies are 17, and the old toms were 15 - one had a cancer and one got et and he was always a bit sickly. I think it is a mix of wet and dry food that is best, and control the fleas and parasites. Cats don't like bitterness, and sometimes tap water can be bitter to them. That can keep them from drinking enough water, so I put a pinch of salt in the water bowl to take away some of the bitterness for them. Cats are prey to kidney problems so the extra water is best for them. Posted by: Kindltot at December 11, 2025 08:48 PM (rbvCR) 153

Evening, Cafe habitues,
Watching the first broadcast Trek episode, "The Man Trap." It struck me anew how hushed Shatner's delivery is as he narrates the captain's log, as if he is trying not to intrude on the story or trying not to be overheard. It made me try to remember some other TV show or movie where I'd noted the same thing. It took me half an hour to recall: the narration by Joe, William Holden, for Sunset Boulevard. It's almost as if Joe does not want to be overheard -- or is talking on the phone with someone and is keeping his voice down to as not to disturb someone else. The technique is appropriate in both properties. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at December 11, 2025 08:49 PM (wzUl9) 158

Trump's brain trust knows that this is twisting Roberts' guts because it is destroying the legitimacy of the courts. There is no precedent, no reason behind these rulings, just naked assertions of power, and as much as these judges are slapped down, they do it again. And so Trump lets the guy go, and then will arrest him because HE'S HERE ILLEGALLY, and they can't get past that. They just keep saying "MOAR PROCESS," so he gives it to them.

Older dogs need love too.
Posted by: Mark Andrew *** At the SpayMart location yesterday, they had a sign up advertising their "Match a Senior Cat to a Senior" program. You have to be 68 or older, and the cat will be 7 or more. They match you up, give you 14 days of food and supplies, and provide some initial vet care as well as giving the animal vaccinations in advance. And they will take the cat back if it proves you can't care for him. Since a 7-year-old cat is only about 35-40 in human terms, it's a bit of a mismatch in the name, but the idea is that an older cat will be more settled and easier for an older human to handle.

With cats, there are Siamese, Maine Coon, Somali, Siberian, Norwegian Forest Cat, Persian . . . yes, I guess so. With dogs, Ive usually seen "German shepherd" rather than "German Shepherd," and "collie," lower case, including "border collie." But there's Labrador, Newfoundland, Corgi, Schipperke, and lots more.

Mrs. Wrecks' friend was struck and killed at night as a pedestrian by a car. It was at a fairly busy intersection near our house with a flashing red light and four way stop but poor lighting and no sidewalk. As is standard journalistic practice of today, the story was extremely poorly written and we couldn't tell what was going on.
Mrs. Wrecks had a dream that it was she who was driving the car and became obsessed with that thought. She searched her car and noticed a few tiny dents and a spot of what might have been blood. She was trying to establish an alibi but neither she nor I can remember where she was at the time. I tried my best to talk her down since her guilt is based upon absolutely nothing but had little success. Finally, tonight, six days later, the paper admits the driver stayed at the scene and has been identified. So Mrs. Wrecks is off the hook. Hopefully, life can return to normal or, at least, no more weird than usual. Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks, Now With Pumpkin Spice! at December 11, 2025 09:49 PM (L/fGl) 353

Good Lord. How can you not remember what you two were doing? Internet browser history alone should let her off the hook. She doesn't have to tell you about the minotaur fiction, she can just say "I was here". Posted by: gKWVE at December 11, 2025 09:52 PM (gKWVE) 361
Exactly. All Crenshaw accomplished was Total Exposure. Shawn Ryan is now making public ALL DM's, and he's now 100% balls-deep into making Crenshaw's life Hell. Posted by: Soothsayer at December 11, 2025 09:53 PM (K+a/1) 362

My best rescue story is I stopped by one day to just look and this three time returnee looked at me and said " I knew you would come for me"
Posted by: Ben Had at December 11, 2025 *** June of '83: Mrs. W No. 2 and I walked into the SPCA and the lady said, "Have I got a kitten for you." Result: Arizona the fourteen-pound Coon mix, my buddy and roommate for sixteen years. June of '22: Saw an intrepid-looking black kitten on the 'Net, drove four hours to see him. "He's smart, and and he gets along with all the other cats at the shelter." Result: Stirling the big cat I've often written about here, sharing quarters with me.

He could be going for the 'the best revenge is to live well.'
Posted by: Aetius451AD work phone at December 11, 2025 09:49 PM (zZu0s) --- He grew up with social media. He became a public figure without his consent.

Disclosure: I am not familiar with Shawn Ryan's background. I know nothing about him. Also, I didn't even know, until now, Crenshaw was a SEAL. Posted by: Soothsayer at December 11, 2025 09:54 PM (K+a/1) 366
Sorry for being such a pill tonight, All.

Shawn Ryan is now making public ALL DM's,
Posted by: Soothsayer Oh look, Shawn Ryan has learnt about Disclosure. Or at least seen My Cousin Vinny. Ryan can just tell Crenshaw that he's legally obliged to do that anyway to a court, so may as well do it now. Posted by: gKWVE at December 11, 2025 09:55 PM (gKWVE) 368
Mrs. Wrecks had a dream that it was she who was driving the car and became obsessed with that thought.

>> Conversely, we have been propagating radio signals for 125 years so any intelligent life form within 125ly knows we’re here.
That's a common misconception. It ignores inverse square behavior and signal to noise and all that, vs omnidirectional vs our signals that are more "beamed" and so forth. Our general radio/TV and communications stuff would be detectable only about 5 - 20 ly away. The high end would require an Arecibo size disk and the best detection we have now. Very high power, highly beamed stuff that got blasted off the planet from military radars and stuff would be detectable maybe 50 ly away, but the aliens would have to be right in the angular line of sight. They've done planetary radar studies, using Arecibo at high power for instance. Very tight beams, high power. Those might get out a few thousand ly, but again, narrow line of sight.

And in May of '11, big black Wolf, recently "liberated" by his uncaring and evicted people, came up to me on the sidewalk outside Linda's place and bumped me with his big head. I petted him, said, 'I *like* this cat," made sure he was free, and brought him home. Result: The incumbent, Chekov, and he made friends in an hour and sat in the window together, watching birds.

I guess I'll find out what this is about if Ace decide to make a post about it tomorrow. Otherwise... don't know, don't care. Posted by: Oddbob at December 11, 2025 09:58 PM (3nLb4) 374

Dems retake the House in ‘26. Trump will be impeached again, and this time he’ll have earned it. I wonder if it’s starting to dawn on Hegseth and Miller (who I like!) that they’re going to spend time in prison before this is all over with..
