I don’t care how conservative you are. Abandoning Ukraine to Putin spits on everything Reagan stood for. Tax cuts and party loyalty cannot excuse this betrayal. If your principles mean anything, this alone should cost Trump your support. Grow a spine. Some things matter more than the GOP.

Columbus Day has become one of Trump’s obsessions on his anti-woke warpath. Should we be surprised that the U.S. president has a soft spot for a racist leader who engaged in war crimes and sexual abuse? Read 7 things about Columbus’ horrible record: zeteo.com/p/7-reasons-...

We've bought her two very nice cat beds but, unless it's a dirty old cardboard box, she won't have anything to do with it. She finally let us put a towel in it.

This is your periodic reminder that the dim specimen who used to be the dumbest person in the United States Senate is now the dumbest person in the presidential cabinet.

It’s genuinely sad to watch. The President is so weak and incapable of negotiating a real deal that he just posts fake ones on social media and hopes people believe him, until every party involved puts out a statement calling him a liar. We’ve never seen weakness like this in the Oval Office.

If Trump had been U.S. president in 1939: "Czechoslovakia and Poland could have avoided all of this if their failed leaders had just made a deal with Adolf Hitler, who I get along with really well and who says very nice things about me."

Jim Stewartson: This is severe psychosis. He exists in an alternate reality constructed by his own grandiose delusions. This separate world is protected by people who use him for their own purposes, and by people like Natalie Harp who guard him from narcissistic injury.

He is not in this world.

SOMEBODY EXPLAIN HOW THIS MAN STILL HAS A JOB? Brenden Cuni, the same ICE agent seen on video brandishing a rifle at the scene of the shooting in NY, where officers shot an unarmed man in front of his 5-year-old child, was also filmed kneeling on a pregnant woman in Minneapolis last December.

Three thousand years ago, a Greek potter looked at a bowl and thought: ‘You know what this needs? A leg!’ Clay bowl with leg-shaped handle!🦵😆 Early Geometric period 850 BC. Altes Museum, Berlin 📷 by me #Archaeology
My photo shows an ancient Greek pottery bowl with a rounded, deep body, wide open mouth and flared rim. It has a large handle shaped like a human leg, extending from the left side of the bowl in my photo, bending at a right angle and ending in a flat foot. The bowl has a camel-coloured surface decorated with dark brown geometric patterns, which include zigzags and meander motifs arranged in horizontal bands around the body of the bowl and along the leg. From Attica, Early Geometric period, circa 850 BC. It sits on a light stone coloured surface in a display case at the Altes Museum in Berlin.

Picnic for garbage babies. 💕 Photo from my collection, no date/info.
Black and white photo of a tabby cat and what are presumably her three tabby kittens. They are all on top of a galvanized metal trash can outdoors which has been covered with a white cloth. There is a bowl of something in the middle and they are all eating from it.

Because I know how much you guys love carpeted toilet accessories. Photo from my collection, 1972.
Color photo of a medium haired dilute tortie cat that seems to have Persian blood because it’s face is quite flat. It is looking up at the camera with its permanently, surprised expression. It’s sitting on top of the pink carpeted lid of a cream colored toilet. The tank of the toilet has a matching pink carpeted cover.

A new statue titled “The Orange Plague”, also known as “King of Injustice”, by Danish artist Jens Galschiøt has been unveiled inside the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, where it will remain through 8 October. Remember to stop by for a selfie if you have a chance. 😏📸
This sculpture is a satirical piece titled "[The Orange Plague] created by Danish artist Jens Galschiøt.

The Imagery: The 2.6-meter-tall, gold-plated bronze sculpture depicts a naked, oversized Donald Trump riding on the back of a smaller man. He is holding a golf club in one hand and a pair of scales in the other. 

The Meaning: According to Galschiøt, the piece is a satirical commentary on modern political power, climate policy, and the subversion of the rules-based international order. 

Recent Exhibition: In October 2026, the statue drew global headlines when it went on public display inside the European Parliament building in Strasbourg, France, organized by Danish MEP Per Clausen.
