theblindwoodchuck.com shares cautionary tales about woodland animals who don’t always play by the rules, which is kind of all of us, amirite?

Full disclosure: I am not a republican. Or a woodchuck.
The best thing about this whole mess has been the introduction to the public of the delightful literary phrase "a dog that hasn't barked." Not having read Sherlock Holmes, I had no idea what it meant.

So thank you Mr. Epstein (you pig), for encouraging us to become better readers of the classics!

After the No Kings March, Trump posted an Ai generated video of himself in a plane dumping shit on protesters.
There may have been nothing we could do in response, but the woodchuck and her friends have a much more highly developed sense of revenge.

Q. Who is a bear's favorite author?

The pictures of the guests arriving in Venice for the Bezos/Sanchez wedding are definitive proof that microplastics are now present in every part of the body; this seems to affect primarily females of the species.

If I were to write a new homage to Dr. Seuss, it would be called "If IRAN the Zoo". My backyard is an Old Country Buffet for squirrels, and it feels like the USA is being run by chimps whose brains have been eaten by the ebola virus (no offense to monkeys).

Man is in the forest. Or weasels, but it's sort of the same thing.

The Blind Woodchuck might still be high, but she knows how important the Hands Off! March is. We are all woodchucks now.

Even the woodland creatures are getting ready for the Economic Blackout tomorrow, although some a bit more reluctantly than others.

The woodchuck smoothed out the carefully preserved catalpa leaf and placed it on the sunny rock. The tree lost its leaves in one big clump in the fall and some of them were as big as beavers; after…

The woodchuck doesn't go to a lot of movies, but when she does, she always consults flicksthatmakemesick.com.

Just a little something to take your mind off of the last eleven days, which have contributed greatly to making this the longest month of January in the history of the world.

The woodchuck says hello as she cautiously pokes her head out of her burrow and stares at the deep blue sky. No sign of the Musk rat. She takes a deep breath and hopes the animals in this forest are not nazis.
