It’s a busy tired day here in the CatBox. The infusions still bring fatigue, but it’s not as severe as it was. But today is a grocery delivery day, and putting them all away will be a lot of work. Tomorrow Diana is coming to change my patch, but I should be able to do a full Open Thread then. The big question for the day is this: How will Injustice Amy Coney Blowjob interface with Injustice Pervert Nookie KavaNazi? (Update: groceries are stowed.)

It’s a crazy day here in the CatBox. I am de-stunk, and WWWendy is semi-gooping. Yesterday we reviewed my scan with Evelyn. My results were mixed. The liver cancer and the spinal cancer are stable, no better or worse. The esophageal cancer is indeterminate. When the stent was installed, the surgeon altered the tumor too much to see if it’s worse or not. The lung cancer is getting worse, but those aren’t my most severe tumors. The odds are that I’ll be with us at least until the beginning of the year. We are going to continue the immunotherapy treatment. Although a “cure” is out of the question, we hope that it will slow the progress enough to give me a little more time. Thanks and a green cloud to Squatch as thanks for the card. Happy Hump Day to all!

From Crooks and Liars: Joe Biden has excellent news! He has managed to locate the White House’s super secret, totally awesome, incredibly strong, very tough, hugely smart and amazing COVID Healthcare Trump White House Plan to combat the Chinese Virus that was totally not Donald Trump’s fault because the Dear Leader did an amazing job saving 15,000,000 lives through his strong and brilliant leadership that no one else could have matched.
And guys, it is a great plan.
Please visit www.TrumpCovidPlan.com for all the details!
I have to admit it, he’s never released a better plan for anything! RESIST!!

From Alternet: Dozens of Florida voters and others residing in heavily-Democratic counties across several states have received threatening emails warning them to vote for President Donald Trump in the upcoming presidential election or suffer consequences.
Ahead of early voting, Democratic voters in Alachua County, Fla., began receiving the disturbing emails. Voters in Alaska and Arizona also reported receiving the same message.
The subject line for the email reads: “Vote for Trump or else!”
Targeting voters registered as Democrats, the email message opens with a disturbing statement telling potential voters all of their personal information has been exposed as the sender claims to have infiltrated the “entire voting infrastructure.”
The sender also warned Democrats to vote for Trump or they would “come after” them. Voters are also being told to change their political party affiliation so it can serve as confirmation of agreement to the terms of the threat.
“We are in possession of all your information (email, address, telephone… everything),” the message stated. “You are currently registered as a Democrat and we know this because we have gained access into the entire voting infrastructure. You will vote for Trump on Election Day or we will come after you. Change your party affiliation to Republican to let us know you received our message and will comply. We will know which candidate you voted for. I would take this seriously if I were you.”
Here is a perfect example of international cooperation, Republican Style. White House staffers prepare the threats, the Republican Party provides the email list, and the SVR (current name of KGB) provide the servers, and all join forces to blackmail voters with fraudulent claims. RESIST!!

He is so conservative that I’m sure I would disagree him most of the time on policy issues. However, I could and would negotiate with him in good faith. A very few conservatives are people of honor and may be trusted to act that way. However, the Republican Party works on bad faith only! RESIST!!

From NY Times: It is a phrase that has been constantly invoked by Democratic and Republican leaders. It has become the clearest symbol of the mood of the country, and what people feel is at stake in November. Everyone, it seems, is fighting for it.
“This campaign isn’t just about winning votes. It’s about winning the heart and, yes, the soul of America,”
The Times is just a bit off. Democrats want America’s souls. Republicans want America’s assholes. RESIST!!
