It’s a tired busy day here in the CatBox. Yesterday Diana determined that sores in my butt crack and under my left butt cheek are a fungus infection. I have decided to forego posting pics. I have the Lotrimin I need to treat it. She’s coming back Thursday to recheck it. I think my esophageal tumor is getting worse, as I have to eat even more slowly, and I can drink water only two swallows at once instead of my usual five. WWWendy came. In addition to her routine tasks, she borrowed a plunger at the front desk and unplugged the throne. I bought a plunger on Amazon, and it arrives this week. She also cleared a bad paper jam in my color laser printer. I ate late, got to bed late, overslept this morning, and am trying not to doze off now. Tuesday is flush your Republicans day, even if you need a plunger, when they misbehave.

![0901TrumpVirusMap[5]](https://www.7thstep.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/0901TrumpVirusMap5.jpg "0901TrumpVirusMap[5]")
US Cases: 6,214,690
US Deaths: 187,839
Plus thousands of GOP plague murder victims Republicans are hiding from us
Short Takes:
From YouTube (MSNBC Channel): Sharpton: Trump’s Defense Of Wisconsin Shooter “The Epitome Of An Insult” To Americans
That is sickening. Even though the mayor asked him to stay away, criminal Fuhrer Trump* is going to Kenosha today. Will his “visit” spread more Trump* virus, more GOP violence, or both? RESIST!!
From YouTube (TYT Channel): Police Stop BLM Medic From Helping Shooting Victim
Isn’t it ironic that the people the Republican Reich accuse of committing this murder were the ones trying to help him? Sadly, as a Portland resident, I know this is all to typical of Portland Police. There are some very fine officers here, but far to many “serve and protect” only criminal Fuhrer Trump* and the Republican Reich, including Republican terrorists. I have now seen video of the shooting. The victim, or someone near him, popped a can of mace and the shots came from within the cloud. Could it be that a Republican Ammosexual thought left-wing protestors were macing him and opened fire? RESIST!!
From YouTube (a blast of protest): The Beatles – Revolution
This could not be more appropriate for today! Kudos to peaceful left-wing protesters! RESIST!!
Vote Blue No Matter Who Top to Bottom!!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Cartoon: Yep, in that direction too.
TVU: 1582 confirmed. 162 active. 1391 recovered. 27 deaths. Sad.
MSNBC: What the Reverend said. dt does what he feels like doing, encouraging more violence, and unrest, rather than healing the unrest. Sick, and tragic.
TYT: God. How horribly sad.
BOP: Excellent.
Glad that you got some medicine for your fungal infections. Kudos to WWWendy and Diana, for helping you with your needs. I never think of plungers, but again, I haven’t used one in years. Glad it got cleared up. Get your rest, take good care, and Thanks, Tom. ‘TAN’ = Take.A.Nap.

TJI #2 – They do that constantly – and sadly, it keeps working, becaust hteir base is too dumb to notice the year. Remember the (not alone) guy who bit on the outrage that President Obama was nowhere to be seen on 9/11/2001, and when asked why he thught that was, said, “I don’t know, but I’d like to find out.”
The fake president, and the RNC know just how stupid too many Americans are!
Why, yes … yes I do remember that Trumpkin idiot who wants “to get to the bottom of” “Not-Yet-President” Obama shirking his duties on 9/11/2001
TJ1: Sad but so true.
TJ2: Most definitely. He’s a pro at ruining things.
Well, that’s depressing. At least you got unclogged what needed unclogging. One company I deal with used to offer what they called a “redneck plunger” – shaped like a rifle. It didn’t work any differently from any other plunger, but you could make it sound like a (muted) rifle, which I guess some peolpe founf encouraging.
The more I read about Chadwick Boseman (Dead. At 43. Of colon cancer), the more I am grieving. What a loss.
Cartoon – Yup, that looks about white.
Map – I’m curious why you used a thumbnail? I didn’t change it because it looks like you intended to use it.
Sharpton – I’m not shocked. I’m not surprised. I’m disgusted. And, yes, insulted. (Digression: you probably could kill someone with a skateboard – if you could knock them out with the first hit – and no one stopped you from raining more blows as long as necessary to kill. That was not the case here.)
TYT – It could be – though it doesn’t seem so – they are pretty sure they have identified him, and he appears to be someone who is just radical because it’s radical.
BOP – Yes. Sigh.
Cartoon: We must prepare ourselves for the crazy storm we’ll be facing.
TVU: Still climbing here.
MSNBC Sharpton: Despicable. tRump encouraging hatred/violence. Standing up for the shooter. The mayor and governor asked him to not come, but he does the opposite. Rotten creep.
TYT: Sad indeed.
BOP: Great song. Fits perfectly.
Sorry to hear about your sores/fungus infection. Hope you get it treated/under control quickly. Good that Diana will recheck them on Thursday. Hope you have a great rest of your day.
Take care. Thanks TomCat
Nice of you not to post pictures. I always knew you were a man of honor!
TVU: “Critical” in the mid-north? Well beyond 6 mill.
Kenosha needs a Trump visit like I need another root canal! Trump needs a skateboard upside the head, however. The not-quite-man is incapable, it certainly seems, of simply saying “This is bad!” Among other things, if he did, he’d loose the donations coming from the White Supremacy groups, at the least.
BOP: The revolution needs to show up as 75 million votes for Biden! Maybe 666 for Trump. (No, I do not believe in that myth.)
First and foremost: Thank you – Thank You – THANK YOU!!! …
For NOT sharing any photos of your gluteal cleft and gluteal regions. (phewww!)
Looks like Trump’s unwise and unwelcome Kenosha visit did NOT accomplish whatever it was he hoped.
But I’d loved to have him DOCUMENT another of his wild conspiracy theories that dark-clad folks from the dark shadows boarded a plane to darkly undermine his coronation.
Without a doubt, our Oval Office occupant is a F\/cking LUNATIC!
Police officers blocked a medic? WTF?!?!? And that was a BLM person, rushing to save the life of his enemy! That’s the difference between Liberals/Progressives and Conservatives. That poor medic – my heart goes out to her, but she must understand that the man’s death was NOT her fault, since she tried to save him. It’s the fault of the @$$hole pseudo-cops who attacked her.
Your immune system isn’t what it was and apparently can no longer fight fungal infections, but you are in good hands with Diana looking out for such things happening. I’m very sorry to hear that you feel your esophageal tumour is getting bigger. Does that mean the infusion had no effect or is it too early to tell? Will the infusion be followed by another one soon?
Too early to tell!
Thanks to Lona for asking what everyone wanted to know. Thanks to Gos that the answer is what it is. Still praying of course.
AMEN!!!
Thanks and Hump Day Hugs to All!
SAD to hear you feel your esophageal tumor is getting larger…and harder to eat….hope you are not suffering…..sounds like you have made lots of solid and thoughtful plans….based on future posts I’ve been reading backwards.
