Ah… the yearly letter to employees worldwide saying that only some of us are getting a bonus, but not everyone.

Why not tell only the folks getting one instead of basicallysaying “A bunch of people are getting a bonus, but not YOU.”

I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔

Voting for a president to fall asleep in cabinet meetings seems an odd thing to do . . .

India has barely let me out of her sight all day. She did run and hide when someone rang the doorbell, which is what Loki taught her. But she came back within a few minutes. She followed me around the whole house, everywhere I went.

31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.

I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

Dear Uber Eats: I asked for 24-hour breakfast places, and you included many places already closed for the day.

Do better.

RIP Loki: 15 April 2011 - 27 November 2025. 💔

Loki passed away in the small hours of Thanksgiving morning. 😢 I've been crying much of the time since.

I will be eternally grateful to Rosemarie Auten for her help. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Wow. I didn’t think it was possible to make an entire buffet of Thanksgiving disappointment, but Harry Caray's Italian Steakhouse in Lombard, IL, managed, and charged $60 for it.

I wore the Happy Hallowthanksmas shirt while traveling on Wednesday. I got lots of smiles and “I love your shirt” shoutouts.

Today I wore the Happy Catsgiving shirt. Got only a couple of comments.

Can’t please everyone.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating today. At the very least, may you enjoy spending time with friends and relatives of your choosing.

Loki just jumped into my lap for the first time in a week!! And he is PURRING! At least he is acting more like himself again.

Also, FÛCK YOU people, including the vet’s office, who basically said I should let my cat starve instead of stopping his meds until I can find a better solution.

I would like to hear from folks who have had their cats irritated to resolve thyroid issues. Pros. Cons. How old was your fur-child when it was done, etc.

The So-Called President of the United States said “Quiet Piggy” to a women reporter asking about the Epstein files.

Vile and disgusting aren’t enough to describe The Convicted Felon Sexual Predator Fascist Dictator who demolished half The White House. Putrid. Repugnant.

Loki is carefully avoiding his meds while eating all around it, despite it hiding in the gooey churu-like stuff on top of his food to encourage him to eat. I had to resort to forcing his mouth open to get the pill in. We do not like this option.

The chicken flavored pill pockets arrive on Saturday.

I got Loki’s meds today. Pills for now and if they work, then the vet will discuss alternative modes.

My attempt to give him the pill directly was exactly as successful as I expected, which is to say not at all.

So, I hid it in his food, and it magically disappeared. 😺

I went out to eat dinner, and even read a book while eating. The restaurant was too damn cold. My food and coffee were cold within 5 minutes. Most restaurants are too cold, really, even in the summer.

Then I spent too much money at Walmart. I miss shopping at 2am when they were open 24 hours!

Vet’s office phoned to tell me that Loki has a bad thyroid and needs meds.

They closed early today, so I will pop by before work tomorrow.

It’ll be such fun pilling that boy, but they said I could put it in his wet food to see if he just eats it without noticing. I approve of that plan.

Kim Davis is so angry that the Supreme Court failed to uphold her deeply held religious belief that "marriage is sacred," she's threatening to get three MORE divorces.
