The boy writes his Christmas wish list:

Dear Santa,
I’ve been very good this year.
Well, I’ve been pretty good…
Well, I’ve been…
Oh you know what, I’ll buy this shit myself.

Where I like to buy my North Atlantic sea salt coming from the Guéronde. The salt is not expensive, the fish are. 😉

The simple joys – egg salad sandwich. 😋

(If you trim the edges, you could call it tramezzini,
but I hate to waste food ;-)

Saturday evening... lean back, pour yourself a glass of whatever you're having and listen to this blues played on the chromatic harp by Antonio Serrano. 🎶

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Does Sen. Cotton have cotton balls for a brain?

New evidence shows that the alleged drug boat was headed in the opposite direction and not to the U.S.

And his head with the inflated ego barely fits through the ribbon loop.
Yo, I can't stop laughing at this
He "medaled" himself🤣🤣🤣

@henriklarsen.bsky.social They have ripened nicely indoors.

I'm gonna try something new: I'll cook them up and then freeze as little cubes in ice trays, transfer to a plastic bag in the freezer. That way I will have handy portions to use when cooking. 😋 😉

I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

The other day I peeled and cored a lot of small apples to bake an apple strudel. Afterwards I thought, what a waste to throw that big heap of scraps away. So I cooked them up, pressed it all through a food mill and now I have enough for two small jars of apple jam. 😋

"Carranza’s family says he was a fisher who would often set out in search of marlin and tuna...although Trump said the crew was “from Venezuela”, the Colombian government soon identified them as Colombian."
Trump has no idea who they are and is attacking randomly.

It's amazing how easy it is for a Republican to bend over backwards to justify extrajudicial executions.

...oh right, I forgot Republicans don’t have a backbone.
BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake?

TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded

BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

Back to the Dark Ages. The Moron in Chief is not the only nut job making life worse for everyone else. 🙈

Is this considered to be negligent manslaughter and liable for criminal prosecution?

I like this old Olivetti typewriter displayed at the local biblioteca in Scarlino, Italy. I can imagine it must have kept the hand and finger muscles in strong shape.
