It's also worth remembering that Biden's mummified corpse would do a vastly better job than Trump

I can hear a duck. When I hear a duck I've found it's worthwhile checking our neighbours' chimney.

Hey, cats - have you heard of the amazing concept of "checking whether you already have food before hassling me"?

I envisioned rottweillers, not corgis. The kitten would eat them for breakfast.

HEY AMERICA! It must be awesome to have the power to vote for someone who could easily destroy the world in several different ways. The rest of us just have to watch and deal with it. So please get over yourselves and do everything humanly possible to stop Trump getting in.

I've only just caught up with what you've been through lately. It's awful. I'm so sorry. (Totally with you on the nuts thing, though. Cashews are my go-to.)
