Kewpie Is for the Squirrels

Congratulations to those who won their elections last night. Unless you are Republican. If you're Republican then you are in a cult, your policies are bad, and you should feel bad.

Even though there were no major races in Kansas, we had a lot of city commission, mayoral, and school board races here. The pro-Trump candidate for mayor of Topeka lost which is good. I know being mayor of Topeka is a do-nothing job, but you still don't want a Trump supporter with even the made-up prospect of power. Plus, Republicans in our legislature couldn't gin up enough of themselves to further gerrymander the state so they can oust the one Democrat we have in Congress. They promise to do that when the legislature reconvenes in January, but we'll see.

Anyway, fuck Donald Trump and his three pieces of paper held up by Scotch tape with printed gold ink that say "The Oval Office."

Oh, this isn't good. This firefighter has a few things to learn. The Thornapples have lost everything and Wilberforce is clearly traumatized. And it's almost Christmas.

So what if Kewpie is burying acorns. What's it to you? Why so angry? Maybe those buried acorns will help out the squirrels when the snow falls and they've forgotten where they've buried their own nuts.

Kansas Day Quickies


A couple, a man and a woman in case it wasn't obvious since it's 1966, are making out in the woods with her in his lap. The panel zooms out revealing a smoldering fire and Smokey the Bear holding a bucket of sand. "Go away!" the man yells at Smokey.

This is how the fires in California started!

Brutus is angrily sitting in his green chair as Gladys leans on the back looking down on him. "Don't let what mother said get you down, Brutus. She's the type who when she has something on her mind she says it," Gladys says. "She's also the type that when she has nothing on her mind, she says it," Brutus retorts.
I don't understand why someone who treats you like crap and doesn't respect you would be allowed in your house. If anything, I'll be out. I'll be back when your mother is gone.
