Get Your Pet to Eat Bugs! (To Save The Planet!)

leeduigon(patty)March 2, 2022

Do bug-eating cats bite off more than they can chew? - Dr. Marty Becker

Mmm-mmm! I just had a live cicada!

I really don’t know how our civilization can be kept functioning from day to day, with so many flaming idiots running around loose.

The U.N. & Co. are always trying to get us plebs to eat bugs, so Kerry and Pelosi and Obama can laugh at us. But they can never quite make the sale, so now they’ve decided to approach it from another angle.

They want us to feed our pets on bugs (https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2021/dec/28/why-feeding-your-pets-insects-could-become-all-the-buzz). Here are some quotes from Chock-Full-O’-Crap News, or whatever they call it.

“Owners worried about the climate cost [?] of traditional pet food are switching to crickets, mealworms, and black soldier flies…”

“A lifestyle choice to help tackle climate breakdown”

“Vegan diets [for cats and dogs???], for sustainability reasons…”

Stop, stop, I can’t stand any more! Waddaya wanna know? Launch codes? Troop movements? I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you everything–just make it stop! Aaaaargh!

None of my cats was ever bashful about pouncing on a bug and eating it. Really, they don’t need any encouragement: in fact, sometimes the results are quite disgusting (Buster and those great big nursery web spiders–ugh!).

I don’t know anybody who serves his cats a nice heaping bowl of soldier fly larvae. But then I don’t spend much time with NPR listeners.

Christian Colleges ‘Make Peace with Abortion’

Clergy for Choice” – Lee Duigon

They’re gonna need a bigger Hell.

Just a few days ago in the U.S. Senate, Sen. Joe Machin (D-WV) cast the one vote that stopped a bill to allow abortion up until the moment of birth: all Democrats but Manchin voted for it. All Republicans voted against it. A narrow escape.

Meanwhile, here’s a story that we missed when it came out last year.

A study by Students for Life of America found that among a sample of 783 Christian colleges (Catholic, Protestant, etc.), one in eight had “ties to the abortion industry” (https://www.christianpost.com/news/sfla-lists-christian-colleges-with-ties-to-planned-parenthood.html). Several listed Planned Parenthood as “a trusted resource” (!). Some others gave course credit for internships with the abortion giant.

“Christian” schools? What kind of Christianity is that? Why do Catholic bishops allow Catholic colleges to go all-out against church teaching? Honk if you can tell the difference between Georgetown and Rutgers.

And you’ve got “devout Catholic” politicians like Biden and Pelosi pushing abortion (and sodomy, and transgender, too, for that matter) like their lives depended on it.

I wish Cardinal Burke were pope. He’d stop this funny business so fast, their heads’d spin.

We Protestants don’t have a central authority. We just have a lot of denominations, some of which call themselves Christian churches. No truth in advertising here.

For a country that was founded by Christians as a Christian country, America has found many ways to displease God.

And I think you’ll agree He’s found some to displease us. But really, He hasn’t started yet.

Pilling Our Peep

leeduigon(patty)March 2, 2022

Scientists are Now Saying To Feed Insects To Your Cat

We have to give Peep two pills, twice a day. It takes both of us to do it: impossible to do with just one pair of hands. I wrestle her mouth open and Patty tosses in the pill. One at a time, please! If she succeeds in spitting it out, we have to try again.

Just after pill-time this morning, Robbie suddenly discovered some tiny bug invading our living room. Activate hunting mode. Up here on the table, Peep watched with intense interest, ready to join the fray as soon as she got a better look at the bug. These cats fight each other all the time; but when an insect invades the premises, they close ranks and present a united front.

The bug seems to have disappeared. Robbie is calling for it–like it’ll come back to be eaten, if the cat asks nicely. I know voters who would do that, but insects are more intelligent than that.

‘Judge Tosses Kids’ “Climate Change” Lawsuit’ (2019)

If the tantrum doesn’t work, try a lawsuit.

What could be more loathsome than training children to parrot a lot of talking points and sending them into the political arena as your pawns?

Leftids do it all the time. I don’t think they can choose not to do it.

Judge Tosses Kids’ Climate Change Lawsuit

Here we had two little boys, aged 7 and 11 at the time, suing in a Philadelphia court to have most of America’s public policies turned around and shuffled to complay with Climbit Chainge ideology. The judge tossed the suit in a hurry: for once we saw a judge resist the temptation to dictate national policy.

Did the kids know what their lawsuit was about? Did they grasp its country-threatening implications?

Or did some unscrupulous adults just put them up to it?

Honk if you think you can guess the answer.

By Request, ‘I Have Decided to Follow Jesus’

leeduigon(patty)March 2, 2022

This hymn really did it for me this morning: I am deeply moved.

Requested by SlimJim (and thanks for this one!), I Have Decided to Follow Jesus, sung by Kathryn Scott for the Islington Baptist Church. I’ve never heard this before. It’s gorgeous.

Playful Armadillo

leeduigon(patty)March 1, 2022

Normally armadillos only attack ants and other bugs; but this lucky little character has a pink teddy bear to pounce on. I don’t think they get many opportunities to pounce on anything, in nature.

Do you like the way he runs around on tiptoe?

Not a Good Day…

I just can’t bring myself to write up any nooze today. I suppose I ought to try to work on my book, The Witch Box, but I don’t know if I’m really up to it.

Patty and I both feel totally drained, beat up, out of gas, and generally used up. Tonight we have to try to give Peep her pills. Lots of luck with that.

The rest of our affairs are in a similar state of disrepair. Absolutely nothing is going right for us this year.

I’ll try to be back here later. Please pray for us.

Hail Who?

Jill Biden, wife of the candidate who got 81 million phantoms and leprechauns to vote for him, made a wee slip of the tongue a few days ago, introducing Kamala Harris, the vice-centaur, as President of the United States (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4042653/posts). She “just said that to make you laugh,” she hastily explained.

Yeah, well, we’ve got that beat! Elves, munchkins, brownies, and will-o’-the-wisps, another 81 million strong, have thrown their support to…

Humphrey the Turnip! If I may indulge in a crepuscularity, they have thrown the throne to him.

“He’s way more qualified than Whatsername!” declared Dr. Frances Gzunt, a carrot. “If Slojo can’t last out his term, who better to take over than Humphrey the Turnip? No political track record whatsoever! Guaranteed corruption-free!”

Humphrey is ready to debate Kamala Harris any time, as long as he doesn’t have to be dug up from where he’s planted.

‘The Golden Age of Pure Crapola’ (2019)

Still waiting to pounce on us…

Hey, here’s an idea! Let’s turn to teenage girls for advice on public policy!

The Golden Age of Pure Crapola

And when we trot out the kiddies, they’ll have fantastically corrupt and dishonest politicians clinging to them, waiting to pounce on us.

They just know they’ll get their precious global government–Climbit Chainge and King COVID make an unbeatable tag-team. And we all know by now that powerful natural processes can be controlled by protests and demonstrations!

And if that don’t work, sling a couple of poems at ’em! And chant slogans. That always impresses tides and ocean currents.
