This whole “leaving the house” thing is overrated.

Trying to exist day to day and it’s hard as hell so here, have a pit mix

*if you hate dogs based on your misconceptions of a much maligned breed you can fuck right the fuck off
A pitbull mix who is mostly brown, but with a white chest and a white left front paw is sitting on white carpeted stairs. To his left is a pair of socks held up for a comparison. The socks show pitbulls who are mostly brown, but with a white chest. He is a match.

Indirectly related: I recently looked into keeping backyard chickens, but we have foxes and coyotes. And, you know. Rizzo. So I guess I will take out some loans and continue to buy my eggs.
A brown pitbull mix with a white chest and one white paw stares yearningly at the camera. He is wearing a hoodie with a black chest, purple hood, teal right sleeve, and peach left sleeve.

We do not know his actual birthday, but we know he was a year and a few months when we adopted him on March 10. So we are designating January 10 as his birthday. Happy birthday, house hippo. Please enjoy your Frosty Paws.

Anita Bryant has died. Let us remember her as she deserves to be remembered.

In my half century of life, I have adamantly refused to put clothing on my dogs. I considered it undignified. And then I moved to a cold climate and adopted a pitbull mix. Anyway, here’s Rizzo in his new hoodie.
A brown pitbull mix with one white left paw is in a 1980s style hoodie. By 1980s, I mean that the hood is purple, one leg is mint green, one leg is pale, orange, and the chest is black. He is very warm and cozy and is very happy as he is currently cuddled in my lap wearing the same ensemble.

UPDATE: I caved.
The aforementioned pit mix is now in ensconced upon my lap, with his little chin on my belly and his eyes gazing into mine with love and gratitude.

The beast is currently whimpering because I have refused to arrange my legs on the ottoman in a position favorable to ultimate snuggles so clearly I am a monster.
A brown pitbull mix with a white chest and one white paw is looking at the camera beseechingly because no one will give him what he wants.

Dude got a Kong from us and a sweater from Grandma. I think he’s happy.
A brown pitbull mix with one white paw is stretched out on his back and chewing a black Kong. He is wearing a green and white sweater. He is blissful.

Counterattack!
A brown pit bull mix with a white patch under his chin stares desperately into the camera and also into your soul.

Just had our first large gathering since acquiring the land seal. He knocked it out of the park, aside from bruising a few folk with the sheer force of his wag. Good house hippo. Good, good boy.

I’m not saying he’s spoiled, but he cried and cried until I arranged my legs to his liking.
A mostly brown pitbull mix with one white paw is lounging on my lap, and said lap is covered with a yellow fleece blanket. He is very comfortable and very happy.

Hello I am emotionally exhausted. Here, have a dog,
A mostly brown pitbull mix with a white chest and one white paw is lounging upon a bed, propped up on two pillows. He is gazing off into the middle distance as though he is some sort of deep thinker.

This morning I fell down the stairs and injured my knee (it’s fine; nothing ice and ibuprofen won’t cure) and this vicious beast sat by my side and refused to leave until he was sure I could stand up. It’s been said countless times, but it bears repeating: we do not deserve dogs.
A brown pitbull mix is snuggling atop my legs, which are covered by a yellow blanket. His little eyes are closed and he is sound asleep.

Every year when we erect the holiday tree, I am reminded that we are a blended family.
Four holiday tree ornaments. From left to right, we have a grand piano, a TARDIS, a violin or viola, and the Starship Voyager.

Was planning on making the pies tonight but I am pinned to my reading chair. Send help*.

*Whiskey. Screw the pies.
A 60 pound brown pit bull mix with one white paw and a skull and crossbones collar has planted his musculature upon my weary legs, thus trapping me in this chair. I regret nothing.

This might get old very quickly. Anyway, tonight‘s meal is vegan* red beans and rice.

*I may have substituted chicken broth for the water and there may or may not be sausages involved.

I’ve been completely frozen over *flaps arms at everything* so I restarted therapy and have been setting aside extra time to snuggle with this needy thing.

I tried to hold on, for I love the journalists, particularly Alexandria Petri. But enough is enough.
