I’m supposed to be working. Please make me get to work. Look, here’s a cat!

A black cat lying kind of curled over on his back on a white bedspread with his front feet in the air and one back paw curled…cats are liquid. It’s hard to describe.

Anywho, look at this young man helping us sort our socks. Oh, to be a fat, festive cat who is unaware of the American healthcare system.

I’ve returned bearing cats. What’d I miss?

A fat black cat with glossy black fur lays on his back on an acid green crushed velvet sofa. He looks directly into the camera.

A fat black cat lays on his back on the acid green velvet couch and stretches with his front legs spread apart like a Y. His face is not visible.

A smug looking brown tabby cat lays on me in my wine-colored robe. She looks at the camera, her eyes half open.

The best day will be when the next person rips all of this crap off, puts everything back and smudges the whole building. They could even make a reality show, “Deshittifying the White House” or something, and Retta could host it. As much as I hate reality shows, I’d love every second of that.

A photo of the White House with gold lettering on the wall that says “The presidential walk” and the rest is cut off. Tall rose bushes block the path and presidential portraits are hung on the wall underneath the text.

A screenshot that says Trump adds gold script signage outside of oval office. The photo is of a door leading into the oval office that has a whole bunch of gold filagree that was unnecessary and the words the oval office printed on paper stuck onto the wall next to the door.

This is your reminder to get your flu shot and any other vaccines you need because who knows wtf’s going on. Also, you should watch Schitt’s Creek again if you need to. It’s still cute and good and you can pretend you’re in a small town in Canada where things are slightly less bad.

One more fb marketplace find for the books. Ew. 😬

Happy 2nd Gotcha Day Anniversary to this magnificent void! Viktor’s come a long way (and 15lbs) from the little night banshee in the park. He’s such a good boy. Pro-tip: Everyone shd paint their walls to match their cat’s eyes.

I am so torn. My in-laws got me this gorgeous art piece made out of a Harry Potter book for my bday, and me 20 years ago would have loved it so so much. HP was a huge part of my life for a long time! But now, she’s just so dreadful and I can’t separate her from her work, so it hurts looking at it.

My current favorite no-chop salad hack: Packaged power greens + pre-bagged broccoli slaw (sans dressing). You have the dark greens, plus broccoli and carrots and whatever other crunchy things are in the slaw mix, add your own dressing and poof: a surprisingly satisfying salad that requires 0 effort.

Just a reminder that this crap is all a big joke to these dudes. They love to infuriate The Libs with posts like this because they’re bored, rich, and have the sense of humor of an ingrown pubic hair. Please save your rage for more probable scenarios and don’t give their “bad jokes” more oxygen.

Which explains why I got this bit of propaganda eschewing the safety of pipelines on the day they announced the spill.

e.e. degroot @eedegroot.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

I got this in the mail today & every time I get one of these, it means that somewhere, an oil pipeline is dumping Texas tea in my drinking water. I hadn’t heard about any leaks recently, but Dan got home and he was like, well, there was an oil spill in the Dakotas, and there we are. Like clockwork.

e.e. degroot @eedegroot.bsky.social · 26/03/2025

I was digging through photos and I found this one from when Dan had Covid for the first time last year. I was so tired of being alone so I came into his sick cave with a mask and sat on the floor. It sucked but I really like it as a candid moment in time.

A man with bare feet, sits on a bed with bluish purple sheets, a teal blanket, and a black-and-white checkered bedspread. I’m sitting on the floor in front of him and you can see my feet and the top half of my black cat and my ugly green house shoe. The carpet is purple shag, and the wallpaper isn’t equally unattractive lavender stripe. The whole photo is very purple.

I don’t want to get out of bed. The cats are here and I can hear cardinals and the gentle rumble of traffic on damp streets. There is nothing good happening outside of this bed.

I have spent an exorbitant amount of money on cat toys, so it should come as no surprise that all she loves are twisty ties.

I think about the Coca Cola snifter I stole from a German hotel in 2007 a lot. It’s pretty much the only thing I’ve ever stolen, unlike my babysitter, who took kid me to Bartel’s store so she could steal tampons, among other things. Looking back, I probably shouldn’t have been left with that girl.

I relate strongly with the top marshmallow.

Three plush marshmallows on a plush stick. The bottom two are smiling, and the top one is frowning, and it is on fire. There are two plush plague doctors on either side of the marshmallows in the toy rack they are in at Barnes & Noble.
