Evening. Had a very interesting weekend with two separate incidents that were disturbing for different reasons. Let’s go with the items in chronological order.
So on Friday I took two of the rabbits (the males – Flan and Noir), Flan was going in for his sneezing, which although was cute as hell was a bit worrying. Noir I was taking for “wandering dandruff” think dandruff that is caused by mites and causes bare patches. He also had a large lump near his ear that was quite black, understandable as he is a solid black rabbit. When we got to the vets, the lump had broken off with just something that looked like a blood blister remaining. At the vets and after spending over $500 we found out that he may have melanoma, which will require surgery to remove and also for the pathologist which will be ~$1.5k but he is only 7 and my best buddy and of course I will pay, I am just glad I am in a situation where I can afford it and not have it break the bank.
So I was a bit out of sorts after the vet business, but the next bit really really weirded my weekend. At 10am I am awoken by my cell ringing from a restricted number, so I cut it off and then try to go back to sleep (no kids, sex dwarf, or vocal, free roaming pets to wake me up early). Get another call from a restricted number, this I answer as I do have kids who live in different states. It is a person who identifies themselves as a police officer, who states I have a Federal Warrant out for my arrest for a failure to appear. The facts as relayed to me – I was sent a letter saying I had to be at a jury selection for a Federal Grand Jury. And since I did not show up a warrant had been issued for my arrest. Now this form that I had signed was bothering me since I had not received nor had I sent, so I was very confused, well more so than normal. The reason I was getting a call (cops never call, they just show up per Horatio) was because I had no criminal record. Now I had just awoken, no caffeine, and needing to pee.
So I did the smart thing, handed the phone to my wife, got some caffeine and too a long and very satisfying piss, while she spoke to the officer, my wife asked for his name and a badge number, which he gave. He then said that he would have the Marshall’s office patched in so I could talk to the Marshall. The number which showed up was actually the Raleigh Marshall’s Office, so good spoofing gear, and a Marshall came on to talk about handling this civil instead of criminal. My wife looked askance and then did a google search for jury scams which provided info about how the scam works. So I ask the Marshall for the name of his supervisor, and the guy on the line says he is the one in charge. I said I wanted to the name of his supervisor and that we know about the jury duty scam. He stuttered a second and the line went dead, he never got to request the $2.5k which seems to be their go to amount according to Google.
So glad my wife was awake, caffeinated, irritable about having her Wimbledon watching interrupted, and a lawyer. Beware of scams, remember the police are more likely to break down your door than call you.
As for sports, we just had a fantastic weekend of futbol matches, tennis, and I assume baseball. Amuse yourselves below, I am watching Werewolf Within and am loving it, especially that Lily chick, and the wakko Dr.
Great news! My electric bill was only $618.
Can’t plan too far ahead . . .

Gumby got something from Forest Lawn the other day. We laughed, because we’re sick fucks, but it was a little creepy and a little too on the nose.
The cast of All That is on @midnight, and I am extremely old.
We have a bunny is on meds until he goes to the big field in the sky. His esophagus is narrowing, so will sneeze up stuff as bunnies can’t throw up (they lack the muscles to do it). There’s not much they can do for him and they did an MRI to find it, so get why you’d help the one you have. Good thing they are both so damn cute
Awww, poor bun. Do you have to cut up his food into tiny pieces?
nope, he does a good job of chewing, he just needs to slow down when eating to not get too much too quickly.
I’m finally visiting Bludao’s
Can’t edit. Fuck it.
The last time I got beef rib was back in Oregon. I asked for the biggest one they had. They brought me a pot roast with a giant bone attached. It was incredible.
What’s going to happen when these sycophants turn on each other in the next 48 hours?
Circular firing squad and hilarity.
All my best for speedy bunny recovery.
Could not play the draft last night because I watch very few movies.
Gonna do a brutal bike ride this morning, giving the running a rest.
I’m goin in boys… wish me well…
Also does anyone remember the sparkling water part from Hillbilly Elegy….
It’s wild…
[jots down “pin her to the ground and pour sparkling water up her nostrils” in his Ways to Get My Wife Soaking Wet journal] – Ben Shapiro
I’m sure he’s all in favor of waterboarding anyone else.
Found a funny:
Like a harbinger of doom, Liz Truss has arrived at the RNC.
The convention will somehow be shorter than her term.
Okay I’m gonna +1 this because it’s funny but I’m mad at you for making me pay even the slightest iota of attention to the RNC.
So, “Kotex” is trending on Twitter…

Is that tRump’s proposed solution to all the flooding?
I’m tapped out of Ben Shapiro manna at the moment but it seems like there’s an opportunity here for someone who’s got some left.
The only thing drier than his wife’s pussy is a fresh tampon.
Remember when King Charles said he wanted to be a tampon?
+1 Squidgy!
Speaking of vet visits, i came home to what only could be describing as my father wrestling the shih tzu
The mutt is getting groomed tomorrow and we’ve decided some downers may help with that and the weather tonight
Except my dad hasn’t learned that wrestling the beast with only two hands is a losing battle, up getting bit by the little hellion (to date, the only time I’ve ever seen this dog even remotely aggressive is this exact situation)
The micro beast scampers off, I go wrangle it, then the two of us finally force the beast to take our offerings.
So little dude is curled up to me now like like a little shaggy haired king hippo.
It helps because said inclement weather has gone from severe thunderstorm alert to tornado watch to tornado warning.
But since we’re less than a mile away from the county line, we’re not worried
So little dude is curled up to me now like like a little shaggy haired king hippo.

One of the contestants on the baking show we are watching is from Morganville, which as we all know is what they called Shelbyville back in those days.
Wonder if said contestant ever took a ride on the famous North Haverbrook monorail…
This is the main auditorium on the main level. Monthly meetings are held in a smaller hall downstairs.

Here’s a vintage program on the wall for the arena Post #43 owns on El Centro in Hollywood. For decades it was a premier boxing arena, but is currently rented to a fitness club. There’s a lot of push to restore it to boxing.

I know this isn’t entirely your fault, Redshirt, but…
I’ve said for decades Ohio is useless, but no one heeded my warnings.
When I was a little kid I liked Ohio purely based on its size and shape and location on the map of the United States. I was also a fan of South Carolina. How young I was!
I was enamored with Biloxi, Mississippi when I was a kid. Kids are stoopid.
Couple of decent restaurants in Biloxi
I don’t hate Biloxi. I prefer New Orleans, obviously, but Biloxi is the best town in Mississippi.
It’s at least like 18% Redshirt’s fault.
Ohio is just a depository for all the extra vowels
Regular meeting in progress blah blah blah
Weekly AA meeting?
No way an AA meeting meets somewhere that nice
Also kinda hoping Last Week Tonight with John Oliver covers JD Vance
That would be Rocking!
Picked up Humankind for $5 in the Steam sale. Was playing Civ while waiting for it to download. Several hours later it should be done now!
There’s a guy teaching his kid cricket outside today, I guess that’s how you know you live in an area with a lot of Indian immigrants
I tried Humankind briefly, I can’t say it was bad, but it just didn’t stick with me.

It’s American Legion Hollywood Post #43 meeting night! I’ll post some photos of Post #43, which is right next to the Hollywood Bowl and is a registered historic landmark.
Meeting nights there’s always a great free catered dinner (this month from Wanda Grill in Hollywood) at 5, right now some dumb presentation from the Geffen Playhouse from 6-7, actual meeting 7-8, then poker and billiards in the two awesome game rooms from 8 until whenever. The bar is open for cheap drinks the entire time.
One day I’ll take you all here.

Bun
You have one too? That’s three people here, seems like more than you would expect in a group this size, statistically speaking. But we’re cool and bunnies are cool, so maybe not?
I haven’t seen this many buns since Friday afternoon.
That’s MY line!
Apparently whoever they got to sing the anthem at the Derby sang like shit? And do you know why?
Because it wasn’t me! (Okay, I would have played it but still.)
Found a funny:
Yale Law strikes again. For conservatives, Ivy League schools are like alcohol in the Simpsons — the cause of and solution to all of life’s problems.
Hope the bun is going to be ok!
So do I!
Is there pet insurance for bunnies?
Probably, but the payments would be fairly high though I would think.

Props to you, 2024. I never imagined ever rooting FOR Michigan, but here we are.
While there are downsides to having married a lawyer (the primary one being that she has been professionally trained to argue for a living) one of the definite upsides is that I have a built-in escape hatch for anything that I think is a scam: “Hang on, let me consult with my attorney. Honey? There’s a guy on the phone that says…”
I just remembered that the last trial I had, back in May, they had a warning about a similar scam posted just past the metal detectors.
Fuck scammers
This also includes both candidates on the GOP presidential ticket this year, but that’s besides the point.
Vance somehow disgusts me even MOAR than the Orange Prick.
/still don’t approve of shooting either lowlife, mind
It’s hard to envision VP Neckbeard being very popular with the ladies.
At first I thought it was JD Drew and I wondered hot the BFIB would react.
/am tired, so very tired
If you want “tired” you should hear my joke about how Matt Gaetz misheard it as “JV Dance” and showed up at the high school gym to creepily watch the sophomores practice their routine.
Sophomores? Buncha old hags.
Horse’s ass.
Disagree on both takes.
Although I am amenable to drawing-and-quartering if shooting is unavailable.
He’s more annoying I think, but tRump is still worse
Trump is worse, but Vance is smarter, which makes him scarier.
I disagree with the smarter part; he’s just younger, which is also scarier.
JD Vance is about as smart as a houseplant, which means that he’s considerably smarter than Trump.
Incorrect. Houseplants know not to expose themselves to toxic substances.
JD Vance looks like exactly what he is: a soft-palmed fancy boy who drives his lifted F-350 to his job in finance
I had a friend who graduated from USC film school. The graduation was keynoted by USC alum George Lucas. As he accepted his diploma and shook Lucas’s hand, he said he had the moist soft handshake of an extremely wealthy man.
