It is #Caturday, and the Office Manager would like to provide proof of life.
Not the best pose for that, but the effort is appreciated!

Time is up. I gave Speaker Mike Johnson two days to swear in Adelita Grijalva. Arizona's 7th congressional district 813,000 Arizonans are now being taxed without representation. I have lawyers downstairs right now drafting litigation.

I'd sworn to run
where most
feared tread
among ghosts
in caverns dread
or in the skies
to fight dire
demons with eyes
reeking fire
and ichor
till my skin
wore their color
and my kin
bade me begone.
#Unearthly become.
Free. Alone.

I was just going through a box of my old memorabilia, and I thought I’d share this concert ad from 1984 (just in case you thought my biopic was LYING about Howie Mandel opening for me!)

for @slate.com I wrote about Joe Arpaio's view on the SCOTUS shadow docket decision in Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo, the case in which Kavanaugh said it was okay to racially profile people.
“I was vindicated by the Supreme Court of all this shit.”

I wake to the
sound of crunching.
Panic, as I
orient--safe in my bed,
the noise merely the
cat consuming a #beetle.
Or something I'd rather not see.
Sudden silence, then the
sure and sudden dread
that mischief is afoot.
Silent paws dent the sheet
as terror approaches
to share her kill.

The tooth of the morning's chill
doesn't quite bite, printing the
skin with goosebumps and little more.
But like the kitten whose chirp conceals
the cry of an infant, there is an #undertone
of ice, twinkling lights, and shiny bells.
Leave the lights in the shed.
Fill the candy bowl.

I see them stare,
They don't dare
whisper, not while
I'm there.
The patches?
The walk?
The way I
talk?
Nah, I just learned
the cash they earn
is the people
they've burned.
Like the #piranha
my rep
goes wherever
I step
Ain't here to fight.
Stay and you might
find I'm more
than a bite.

Dark things, they say
are destroyed by sunlight
surely as false things
wither in the face of truth.
Is it then any wonder that
hollow men with their
empty promises
fear
Joy, laughter, #verve
the company of kind folk
the things that fill our souls
and fortify us against despair?
