Excuse me – We don’t take our advice or counsel from former president Trump…
It’s easy to identify very smart people just by listening to them and learning who they don’t listen to for advice π
Also, how simply they get their interrogator to reveal their true agenda.
Jennifer Rene Psaki – somebody should give her a job as a spokesperson.
OH!

Have to mention this Royal Thai Navy cat rescue
I tried not to, but I think this one deserves a mention.
βWhen Navy sailors approached the burning ship to inspect it for any oil spillage as it began sinking, they noticed four cats stranded on board,β Nookool.b wrote. βThey carried each cat on their backs and swam back to the Navy vessel until every cat was rescued.β
Navy to the rescue as cats trapped on sinking Satun ship, crew safe
There is no conformation of a later story that all cats got together and threw the Captain of the sunken ship overboard – FOR LEAVING THEM BEHIND!
However, a Navy spokesperson is rumoured to have said that the search is still ongoing π
A spokescat is also said to have informed the media that the Captain has been blacklisted, and will have to catch his own mice and rats in future, if he is found, and if he is given another ship.

I don’t understand how tweeting a turd pic of Trump ‘Insulted millions of customers’
Surely they should have been grateful for the free publicity.
I’m sure I heard someone, somewhere say “There’s no such things a ‘Bad Publicity”.
I guess there must something wrong with my head, unless…
Did T-Mobile actually lose millions of customers after its CEO tweeted a fairly accurate image of mankind’s self-proclaimed genius, Donald J Trump?
I freely admit not paying any attention to the news these days, as it’s fairly easy to predict the Covid, conspiracy, and nutjob articles that will be featuring, same as they were yesterday, the day before, last week, last month… .. .
Even so, I’m reasonably sure I’d have noticed something about the demise of T-Mobile, hinted at in this article, had millions deserted.
T-Mobile CEO Tweets Scatological Image of Donald Trump, Insults Millions Of Customers
Incidentally, I wasn’t looking for this, I wanted one of those funny little cartoon style spiral ‘steaming turd’ drawings for a funny comment.
No surprise really that this was in the collection returned by an online image search, and that led to the source article.
The image, really just showing a slightly overweight and possibly out of condition Donald Trump, is just a mural, a simple piece of street art, no doubt painted by someone who wanted to publicly express their true feeling about their ‘Great Leader’.

Alex Jones and Donald Trump – A true love and hate story
Alex Jones and Donald J Trump probably represent the type of person who has the wealth and resources most ‘normal’ people would be happy to use to buy a tropical paradise island, live lives of leisure and luxury, and never have to worry about the rest of the world.
Instead, they’re examples of the worst, nastiest, evil, disgusting people likely to be found outside the compound of a military dictator.
Far from being ‘idle rich’, both have spent their lives using their time, wealth, and positions to cause misery, pain, and heartache to others, as if that was their mission in life.
In the simplest terms, they are little more than thugs and bullies – unfortunately enabled by mobs of lesser thugs and bullies who latch on to them, and enjoy the opportunity to beat on those less fortunate than themselves.
One thing that seems consistent though, is that you NEVER know when they’re telling the truth – their lie and fantasy filled worlds seem to merge seamlessly with truth and reality, and there’s no way to tell if they’re slipped into reality, or are still rambling.

Alex Jones Hates Trump
Is this the same Alex Jones being referred to here:
The Wall Street Journal previously reported that Jones, an ally of Trump and an infamous conspiracy theorist who has claimed the government is feminizing the population through tap water and the Sandy Hook shooting was staged, pledged money to the pre-riot “Save America” election protest in exchange for a speaking slot, and also secured funding from Julie Jenkins, a Trump megadonor and the heiress to the Publix supermarket chain.
Stone, a former Trump campaign adviser who was pardoned for witness tampering and false statements in the Russia investigation, has claimed he had no knowledge of the insurrection beforehand, but has been caught on video in D.C. flanked by a right-wing militia as the attack was beginning to unfold.
A timeless classic Scottish souvenir dish towel
It’s a long time since I’ve seen one of these, but they are timeless gems.
I’m pretty sure I have one tucked away in ‘a safe place’, but like all such places it’s so safe I have no idea where it is.
There may even be some others with it, as I can remember a number of various designs being sold in Scottish souvenir shops around the country.
Probably my favourites for having a wander around were in Callander, far enough to be interesting, but near enough to be easy to get to (once).
Although I haven’t been able to get there for years, I could probably describe most of the items on sale, especially the carefully curated cassette tapes of traditional Scottish bagpipe music, which was constantly present in the background of all these shops. I was actually sorry for the staff (who mostly looked like students) paid to mind these shops which opened from early morning until late at night during tourist season. Their brains must have been liquifying from the constant exposure, 7 days a week, for maybe 12 hours per day in season.
These near identical shops existed all over the place in the best of the tourist spots, and holiday destinations of better days.

Classic Scottish Dish Towel
If I remember correctly, their description as ‘dish towels’ would probably fall foul of any conscientious application of Trade Description Law today.
They were paper thin, and really intended for use as decorative wall hangings, rather than actually drying dishes π
Why does this girl not look happy – she has made her cat happy, so she should be happy
People unsure of the concept…
If you arrange toys for your cat, and your cat uses them – you should look HAPPY!
(Somebody might want to take her to one side, and have a quiet word about cat toys π )
So, there were others watching for the orange inauguration
Must be using Chinese tin foil.
Or maybe Mexican.

Nazi iconography and symbology of the ‘MAGA’ Far Right – a basic primer for beginners
The previous post reminded me I had this handy collection lying unused, and this seemed an appropriate place to leave it.

Nazi Iconography
From slightly more recent times, we have these lovely MAGA Far Right symbols.

Far Right MAGA Symbology
Stop calling us Nazis – No prob, as soon as you stop…
Parading around like this.
The top pair is, hopefully, obvious.
The lower pair may not be so well known t some, and shows a splice of Trump 2020 on the left, and the white supremacist group Lion Guard on the right.
