This one has been serenading me all afternoon with widely strange songs and cackles. It's the Guira Cuckoo (Guira guira), of course!!

I'm old, and people say I am ugly. Can I get a like?

Also, that old, fat, ugly dude behind me needs some love, too.

I wonder how Trump supporters like being called genetically and culturally inferior to immigrants? I heard about a "civil war" looming, but I didn't know it would happen within MAGA and so soon. lol
THIS!! It’s getting down and dirty!!

Holy LOOMER! 👇

I will continue to call the US "DUMBFUCKISTAN" until the orange fool is voted out.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: CNN stated, "Oh, he's just teasing." Teasing about taking over other countries? There's no such thing as "teasing" when you're threatening the sovereignty of independent nations.

Eight years ago today I found this little darling on the side of the road screaming for help. Happy Rescue Day, Talini

I've never seen so much waterfowl gathered in one spot. Ducks, geese and even loons. I guess they're preparing to head south when they have no more access to water and food. I on the other hand, found lots of food and warmth at a pub farther north shortly after snapping these :-)

"The TV business is uglier than most things. It is normally perceived as some kind of cruel and shallow money trench through the heart of the journalism industry, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs, for no good reason."

It is an ominous sign that Morning Joe felt it had to apologize for something I said.

We had visitors! A family of capybaras, the largest rodent in the world. I've never seen them so close to our home. Native to South America, they're semi-aquatic, spending most of there time grazing, swimming, or just lazing about. There were about 8 in the herd, 6 pups and two adults.

I'm truly embarrassed for Canada that the PM jumped so quickly and raced to Orange Caligula's Florida cemetery to kiss the felon and sexual predator's ring.

Someone just commented that it's Playstation's 30th anniversary. I've never seen one let alone played one. Am I a freak because games dont interest me?

I used to fear that there was no way to help humanity, but at this stage of my career, I ask myself why I want to help humanity. Instead of environmentalism, I wish I had dedicated my life to biology and wildlife preservation. At this stage, I couldn't care less about rogue primates.

Is environmentalism dead?

Everyone calls my pets “fur babies” but when I call their children “skin animals” I’m the bad guy?

The environmental movement doesn't understand how horrible the general public reads these headlines. No talk about saving the world; everyone is squabbling over money. Maybe they will get it right by COP73

Sometimes, I want to ask my Current/ fourth psychiatrist, "So, how does your lack of progress with me make you feel?" But, I'm afraid he won't laugh, and he'll only up his rate again—the sodding grifter.
