Stupid Human Tricks Cafe

quokkagoof.jpg
A quokka being a Straight-G Goof

Teaching your chicken to pull an ollie.

Puppy does not like his medicine.

ICYMI: Border collie speed challenge.

A little rain in Paris.

"Come to Africa, she said. We'll see the lions, we'll have a good time..."

Baby shark.

Can he do it?

Maybe you can beat the duck. Maybe you're dead wrong.

Little girl takes her teddy bear dog out for a ride.

ICYMI: Man saves a sea lion, and the sea lion remembers his kindness.

Blind and deaf dog takes a while to recognize the smell of her owner, but then she's very happy.

Giving a baby elephant a treat and a pet.

Seeing an old friend and giving him some presents.

Puppy will only be walked by his actual daddy.

Yesterday I posted:


Swimming with the sharks. Why?

Well, here's an OnlyFans model similarly posing with sharks.

Maybe this is the new thing, with "influencers," sinfluencers, and OF models using their legs as bait for sharks. I can see a truly spectacular cautionary tale in the making.


It's adorable to see these four golden retrievers keeping a close watch on a sleeping baby, but the sad truth is, they just think he's a jumbo-sized Hot Pocket.

Man the Hot Pocket chicken and broccoli was so good you guys. No wonder dem dogs want to eat dat baby.

Try to stick the landing next time, idiot.

7 Nooded.

And the cat Snowflake that was gone 3 weeks. She's been back "home" for 2.5 weeks. Up to 10 pounds in the afternoon.

I'll start weighing her everyday in the morning and adjusting food.

Her jumping is off. Which is hilariously cute. But she is pretty much an indoor cat now.

And when and if the house closes Monday, she won't be homeless. Sweet.

I once told Ros during a struggle session, "Your mother never complained when we did her nails."

This was, of course, an outrageous lie. Delilah was very finicky about having her feet touched, let alone having her nails ground. But I was amusing myself by ascribing to a previous generation virtues they never had to shame their children. As though a Borzoi girl feels shame.

Big Question.

No parents. My brother and his family hate me. My parents would want me to leave everything to my nephews. Naaaah, they HATE ME...

I have no wife or kids yet, and expect to enjoy both for years to come.

Honestly, my friends across the street are amazing. Since they came here, they have done so much for Mom. And for me. I have had my amazing moments too. Trust me. Horde would be proud.

I need a will. My parents would want everything to the kids. But they would be heart broken to see the last 5.7 months.

My friends across the street are amazing.

I expect to live a long while. But if something worthy of a clip show happens to me, i would love them to have everything I have. They were wonderful to Mom.

The kids always came over and asked "How's Rose?" Food. Lunches. Christmas tree early Christmases.

Yeah.

"Reports confirm the arrest of rabbis and religious leaders in Tehran and Shiraz, accused, without evidence, of ties to Israel," the organization wrote on its social media. Six additional people have been executed on suspicion of collaborating with Mossad....

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?"

Yep.

The electronic (really electric) repellent is Australian, can't recall the name. Swimmer's version is an ankle strap thinggy. Generates an electric field in the water, sharks can't stand it, immediately swim away from it.

I remember what was probably proof-of-concept waaaaay back in the 70s, done here near the harbor (it was on local news). They chummed water near a boat, waited for sharks to appear, then stuck this thing in the water and turned it on. Sharks immediately turned and swam in concentric circles away from the boat. Sharks have sensor system in their hides, the electric field appears to be intolerable for them.

211 There was a large house behind ours in town. It was owned by a couple, the wife died and the old guy was left alone. No kids. One of the guys in the neighborhood used to take care of the yard for the old guy and wouldn't take any money for it. After the old guy died, that neighbor was contacted by an attorney. The old guy had left the house to him. Things like this happen. Honestly, if I become friends with someone here that doesn't own a home, I might leave the house to them. Would be a hassle for my stepson to deal with.

For now, when the house is yours, do have a lawyer draw up a will! It can be changed later if needed, but it's critical to have that in place.

214 Ben Had, not breaking them up seriously, like mashing them up. Guess I could do that. Just not sure it's worth it. I amend basic topsoil or potting soil to grow herbs and some veggies in pots or small plots. Other than topsoil brought in over the decades for landscaping purposes, very poor soil here. And not far below the surface, nasty clay-ish stuff (forget the proper name). Riverbeds here are very rich of course, everywhere else - chaparral only thing that grows naturally.

264 I used to catch black tipped reef sharks, aka dogfish in Quartermaster Harbor when I was a kid. My grampa hated them because they would fight like a silver salmon and then bite the lead and disappear with the hook in his mouth. He didn’t like losing money to those bastards.

I caught a few dogs with several hooks embedded in their mouth. Asshole fish.

Common sense policies go a long way to being on the right-side of things. Speaking plain English, Trump version, versus political speak.

I said it the first term, I have never known what a president is thinking in real time until Trump thanks to Twitter/X. Trump doesn't do diplo-speak. That's why I'm so impressed with Sec. Rubio, no diplo-speak but common sense-speak.

294 Rulings of the chair (parliamentarian) can be challenged/over-ridden by a vote of the body. So it's the people that voters put in the Senate - esp. GOP - who are responsible for whatever's going wrong.

If I have it right, new lows are being achieved, with the parliamentarian ruling the NFA amendment is non-germane - even though that section of the NFA was only deemed constitutional (an absurd ruling, obviously) *because* it was a tax. Of course the primary test of germaneness in reconciliation is whether something affects (non-discretionary) spending, or ..... revenue.

336 329 Stateless, some if my customers have named me as caretaker of their horses if anything happens to them. Honestly, Ralph is not going to outlive you so take that worry off your plate.

Mom would check up on her friends everyday.
