Ah, good. The popcorn to enjoy with the pending cage match between Elmo and Donald. This should be outstanding entertainment. I hope they both leave the ring on stretchers, battered and beaten.

Spent an hour this morning hugging my dog, telling her it would all be okay somehow. While she's an experienced freelance emotional support floof, I'm not sure she believed me. Much more concerned with spring critters that need to be flushed out. I want her job and peace of mind...

Aww, that's proving to be one very expensive Sieg Heil for President Musk. It's almost like his customers and investors don't much appreciate that he's pulling a Twitter on the US Government and torching $TSLA as part of his dumpster fire.

Spending a week with this ridiculously adorable girl around the house has been outstanding therapy for ALL the things. We don't deserve dogs, but we sure as hell need them. Thanks, Clover, come back and visit soon.

About as gorgeous out as it gets. Ignore the bugs; appreciate the clear streams, soggy fluff, and delightfully chilled paws.
