Good Lord. Madonna is two years away from getting her 20 year pin from the AARP. A 68 year-old shouldn’t be going out in public dressed like a whore.
Madonna doesn’t need to flounce around in a red hat, but it’s not cool for her to gloat about her deal with the devil.
Sparkly hasn’t gotten a post in a while, so here he is just before lying down to sleep.
Since he is a free man with agency, Sparky can sleep where ever he wants. I like that he’s got a favorite spot on the couch, with a couple of pillows.
Sparky often looks somber and introspective at bedtime. He might be gloomy because we don’t goof around when we go out for the last whiz of the night. I don’t want him to think it’s play time. Or, maybe it’s because he can get night terrors, so isn’t eager to go back to the land of Nod. Or he doesn’t like the blue light.
Sparky is probably just hungry.
I always take a minute to sit with Sparky to let him know that he is a good boy.

Bill Gates thinks that he is a Big Brain, who can fix the world if we let him. If Gates is predicting vague doom from AI, then the threat is to him, not us.
I’m being repressed.
I went to the board of elections site to get a sample ballot, and the link in English was broken. Only the Mexican ballot was available.
They are making their move. The grand replacement is complete.
And he lives in my yard.
A black squirrel has moved in. His name is Blade.
Blade has nuts, so I am assuming a gender.
It only works because the mouse doesn’t understand why the cheese is free.
I saw this bit of wisdom on Twitter/X, so pass it along as Twisdom.
I had never seen this clip or heard this story, so I pass it along.
This is from the Sage Steele podcast with Texas congressman Wesley Hunt and Florida congressman Byron Donalds in 2024. Hunt tells the story of President Trump negotiating with Taliban leadership to get out of Afghanistan.
‘Tis the season when affluent White women switch from Zoloft to pumpkin spice, so here is a pedantic fact to get the conversation started.
Pumpkins are just a variety of squash.
Howling with Sparky is my favorite thing.
