How 'bout a Commemorative Rat to mark these 'interesting times'?

Be it a rodent exuding blithe insouciance, or
conflicted, troubled by the prevailing zeitgeist, or
fully aware, unrattled, facing the moment with sagacity and equanimity,

un Rat du Temps should be added to that pantheon of pests,
that Valhalla of Vermin, the Repository of Rodentia you've created.

and who kidnapped Kamala and replaced her with a drag queen???; १९/७/२०, ९:३९ PM
rcocean म्हणाले...: Tried to read the Fox News transcript of the Trump interview. What a horrible interviewer Wallace is. I'm sick and tired of the stupid questions demanding PROOF of a Anti-biden Trump opinion. Geez, did Wallace get his check from the DNC?

And endless dumb questions on the Confederate flag or why don't you like Dr. Fauci and what about masks?

Not one good question on illegal immigration, or border security. Not one. Nothing on Portland. Nothing on Antifa. And CV-19 discussion was just endless bickering about Case numbers. What about the death rate? Further, if Wallace doesn't have the NUMBERS then don't talk about CV-19! Trump might as well go on MTP if he wants this nonsense.; १९/७/२०, १०:०२ PM
Matthew Heintz म्हणाले...: It's not the first time that my home has been invaded by an army of carpenter ants during a hot and humid summer season, but this is the lollapalooza of them all! So when the nest gets too hot and a bunch of the residents check out, their dead carcasses are hauled to a central location for disposal. This year it's my kitchen floor. I just swept up about a thousand former ants. Ugh; १९/७/२०, १०:०५ PM

And you prick a raw paw, next time beware.

Don’t pick the prickly pear by the paw, when you pick a pear try to use the claw.”

PluralThumb म्हणाले...: Kamala Harris is a Drag Queen ?

I need to start smoking cigarrettes again, this news is too much for the irrelavance of my personal life.; १९/७/२०, ११:०८ PM
steve uhr म्हणाले...: More testing = more discovered cases
More testing = lower mortality

More testing bad ... More testing good. The Moron in chief doesn’t seem to understand part 2; १९/७/२०, ११:२८ PM

Original Mike म्हणाले...: FINALLY! Been fighting clouds all week. Set up (and took down) the telescope twice. 4 hours of prep time for essentially no observing time. Kept waiting for a forecasted clearing that never happened.

BUT. At 23:15 this evening, for about 1 minute, got a beautiful view of Neowise. Easy naked eye; bright dust tail and faint ion tail. Spectacular binocular view. Bright, stellar nucleus, gorgeous tails.

Well worth a dollar.; २०/७/२०, २:५३ AM
rehajm म्हणाले...: When asked if he would accept the results of the Nov. 3 election, Trump hedged. “I think mail-in voting is going to rig the election. I really do,” he told “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace

We had countless hoaxes to try and Watergate him, Russia hoax, impeachment hoax, that blasey ford scotus hoax and with all the evidence of vote rigging we're shocked he won't accept the result of a rigged election...but somehow a doddering lukewarm Biden is supposed to be up by 15 points.

Either another hoax or America deserves what it is going to get...; २०/७/२०, २:५६ AM

buwaya म्हणाले...: More testing = lower mortality because testing is just revealing more of the underlying reality of much more extensive virus transmission, which has always been the case. And that the virus mortality was therefore always much lower than experts were estimating at the time.; २०/७/२०, ५:२७ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: Reading about an anti mask protest “We aren’t going to wear your fear!” has pretty much finalized my decision not to vote in 2020, or maybe ever again. Democracy is about the manipulation of morons by providing them with rhetorical rationalizations for their basest instincts. De Tocqueville was right. I always knew that, but I held out hope be living in denial. We would be better off with a king. Then we wouldn’t have to think about politics. We can’t have a king, but I can refuse to think about politics.

Whatever happens in 2020, you earned it America.; २०/७/२०, ६:१८ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: The more I think about it, the more Roger Stone’s ‘gaffe' epitomizes woke politics. What’s pretty funny about it is that the people yelling about it the loudest are the same people who approve of his thinking as technically sound, that skin color tells you all you need to know about a person. He should be a hero to them, as an early adopter of their message.; २०/७/२०, ६:३० AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: "Under the change, the FCC said carriers can block calls “from bad-actor upstream voice service providers that pass illegal or unwanted calls along to other providers, when those upstream providers have been notified but fail to take action to stop these calls.” Carriers that impose this type of blocking will get a safe harbor from liability ‘for the unintended or inadvertent blocking of wanted calls, thus eliminating a concern that kept some companies from implementing robust robocall blocking efforts’.”

There are mom and pop telephone companies still in some areas, and foreign ones, who are happy to dump server generated spam calls into the system for profit, making our phones less useful as we now ignore calls from people we don’t know as a matter of course. They will doubtless build exceptions in for political spam.; २०/७/२०, ६:३६ AM

We went down to the beach the night before last, and despite the light pollution, we could see it with the naked eye, and quite clearly with the cheap binoculars.; २०/७/२०, ७:२० AM

Maryland just caught onto a $500,000,000 unemployment fraud scheme, in a state with 6 million people. More than $500 Million Stolen From State of Maryland In Unemployment Fraud Scheme But no one is going to cheat in an election because the results don't matter, am I right?; २०/७/२०, ७:२६ AM

alexxkimm87 म्हणाले...: It has been demonstrated that viewing the dawn or nightfall gives you a superior feeling of appreciation for the Management Assignment earth. At the point when you are up to speed in the regular excellence of the earth (like a nightfall), you free yourself of any interruptions and feel more significant levels of fulfillment; २३/७/२०, १२:१० AM
