Another Irony. When the democrat supported riots were happening and they were knocking down statues, the statues they tore down were all democrats. Go Figure.

Nicole Smith's avatar

I heard that before and every time I hear it, it brings a chuckle to me. Yes, people who did that are absolutely that dumb!!! And they tell us to know our history, LOL. Another great Sunday strip; loved it! Thanks Jill and Robert for everything you do!!

The lady beating a Trump piñata— or maybe it’s a balloon, had on a “Be KIND” shirt! 🤣🤣 Oh, the irony…

Their leader really ought to advise them not to wear their virtue signaling shirts while beating a balloon with someone’s likeness.

Paul Fischer's avatar

Hahahaha. Yeah I saw that. Shirt says MAKA-Make America Kind Again while she's beating the daylights out of a Trump pinata. These people are mentally ill.

Like those houses with “there’s no hate here” Or words to that effect. Try knocking on the door with a MAGA hat!

More ironic...dead ones meaning their own voters.

Zinger Sunday, thanks Docs!

Watch as they continue to slowly cancel (re-assassinate) MLK, Jr. Why? He “had a Dream that was deeply rooted in the American Dream”.

In what Dream is the Leftist Dream rooted? All I can think of is Carl Jung: “The roots of the Human Shadow extend all the way to Hell”.

" they were knocking down statues, the statues they tore down were all democrats." You should have ended your sentence with the phase " just saying this folks have some issues."

Another great week! The picture of the little girl and the German Shepard reminds me of a photo I have of one of my daughters with our long passed German Shepard named Duke. I was doing something on the computer and was not paying attention to her and Duke sitting behind me. She was quiet and I just plugged along til the silence broke. When I was done I swiveled around in my chair and saw that she was actually putting mascara on the giant dog who she was face to face with while he just sat there still but rapidly blinking. He was a huge dog that hated other dogs. He once grabbed a whole dog in his mouth and threw it for getting near our daughter. However with her he was as docile as could be. He had mascara all over his face. Priceless. He was such an amazing dog.

There is nothing like a good dog! I miss my beloved Lab every day. He was such a gentle, old soul! Lived to 15.

Kirsten Arbon's avatar

It's almost like they imprint on to us as children.

Frank Whiten's avatar

After reading that, Kirsten, I miss your wonderful dog too. ❤️

Kirsten Arbon's avatar

I just watched a video of him. It made my eyes drain down my face.

The two times in my life I cried the hardest (overwhelming grief from the depths of my being) were when my Father died and when our first Golden Retriever died. I dread the passing of our two miniature Goldendoodles. The grief will come from the depths, where my love for them lives.

The female otter displays her most important function—reproducing the species. The male otter displays his most important function—using tools to provide food for his family….

“Look at this terrific ROCK I found to whack open our oyster shells! I bet the other otters never brought home a rock THIS good!”🦦

Wow! That’s a perfect analogy! And not a nose ring or purple hair on either one!

When you chase others that have taken away time from you, you begin to realize all the time you spend trying to get it back is more time that’s gone right out the door. I’m learning the wise understand some things are better just left behind. Life is a mist that appears for a short time and then vanishes, (James 4:14).

Life is hard on people, you can’t stop what’s coming. It’s not all waiting on you. Don’t waste time on vanity. Rather than passively letting time pass, wise individuals are purposeful with their actions, planning, and making choices to avoid regret.

When we’re young we may see time as endless. True wisdom often comes from experiencing life’s realizing that time is a gift from God that moves quickly. When people leave your life, chasing them often results in wasting more time. Letting go, forgiving, allows you to invest in your own growth.

Stop chasing; Start living. Happy Sunday Everyone. J.Goodrich

Great advice thanks James

In these times of political strife, I find inspiration in those occasional anecdotal accounts of people coming together in a shared sense of community. There is one such weekly moment, or so I am told, at the nearby nail salon. At about the same time, mid-morning on Saturdays, the DJ plays the song the ladies are all anticipating, regardless of their backgrounds or political views. The ceiling speakers somehow sound tinny, scratchy, and stuffed with socks all at once, but none of that stops the emotion from pouring through. By the time Joe Cocker hits the crescendo in "You are Toe Cuticle," there's not a dry eye in the house. Very moving.

WOW. thanks James.

That made my Sunday.

Sent to the family. . .

LOVE that song.

TYPO in the banner - Y’all is spelled with two L’s and an apostrophe. Don’t y’all just love the word apostrophe?

Sheila Barkofske's avatar

My maiden name was O’Gorman so apostrophe was my middle name!

GMoody's avatar

Looks like the northern autocorrect messed with Jill’s Y’all. 😂

Swabbie Robbie's avatar

The crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe - Frank Zappa

Sharon's avatar

An apostrophe is, punctuationally, a multipurpose thing; whereas, a comma, exclamation or question mark only serve one purpose.

Swabbie Robbie's avatar

So, to sum up, most people are commas, exclamation, or question marks. ,!?

Paula Mitchell's avatar

Thanks Sharon but, I knew what it meant

Sonia Nordenson's avatar

And that should have been: "Thanks, Sharon, but I knew what it meant." I'm a veteran editor who still cares a lot about punctuation, because language is a crucial part of our eroding culture.

LB (Little Birdie)'s avatar

I'm just wondering if that particular spelling doesn't somehow relate to the 1st meme. Trump in Muslim clothing and some Muslim spelling in the heading?

GMoody's avatar

I know that gal from back home talking about the church socials and paying close attention to who brought which dish. Mom always said, don’t put any potato salad on your plate that doesn’t have enough mustard and sweet pickles, it probably was made by a northerner so it can’t taste good plus bet it doesn’t even have boiled eggs either.

I spit out my coffee when she said if she wanted salmonella she’d go lick a chicken coop!

Have a funday Sunday!

Barbara Lekowicz's avatar

Yes. I’ve attended many a southern pot luck in my day and she hit the nail on the head! Hilarious!

The "Peace in the Home" reminded me of an older Honeywell technician I saw instructing a couple of apprentices on a job site. I commended him for training the next generation. His 'patient father look" changed to a sour expression as he said: "I retired two years ago and after two weeks my wife told me to "go back to work"!!

We had a hyper-acfive returnie like that a Social Security. Was glad I didn't have to work with him.

Have been a bit perplexed by the supposed angst in Democrats over the redistricting in Texas that has driven them to running around everywhere redistricting via racial gerrymandering in response. But the Texas redistricting was in response to an order from the DOJ to undo a racially gerrymandered district. False angst there maybe???

Swabbie Robbie's avatar

Our Wisconsin governor, Tony Evers has been criticizing the redistricking in our state and wants it redistricted again. It was pointed out that he was the one that drew the map of the current districts. He wanted Democrat Rep Ron Kind to win and made a frankenstein distrct. When Ron Kind decided not to run again, Republican Derrick Van Orden won. Now Evers is unhappy. "Just saying".

KC & the Sunshine's avatar

As another of my fave substackers, Jeff Childers of COFFEE & COVID said, “It turns out, the democrat way of ending unfairness brought on by racial disparity is to — draw lines using more

racial

disparity”— or something like that.

*That is not an accurate quote.

I live in a blue toilet bowl woke area in Virginia surrounded by a sea of Red counties. So these people in the blue toilet bowl have a protest of some sort every couple of weeks. May 1st was no exception. I can hardly wait for the protesting, wailing and gnashing of teeth if the Va Supreme Court nullifies the unconstitutional “temporary constitutional amendment” these jokers put on a ballot that went on for 45 days and culminated with a tiny victory for the Jackass Party.

If that happens, it will be followed by more of the same after the SCOTUS decision to stop racial gerrymandering. Of course they may even decide to schedule a weekly protest if the weather isn’t to their liking. Fun times!

Micheal Nash, Ph. D.'s avatar

Was thinking of Va. when I wrote that

GMoody's avatar

Well, what they haven’t figured out is their gerrymandered map if accepted by the court will take away a black representative when they combine it with a 65% white Democrat representative that’s very popular in Northern Va. these people are plain stooopid!

Jean's avatar

Im hoping the 'Make DC square' initiative takes hold and will be successful. They can join with their own AND no longer have to vote. With luck Trump's strategies can keep their displays orderly.

Sheila Barkofske's avatar

Thought the same thing.

A.J. Foster's avatar

The Democrats are still pushing segregation as in the past. They now ask for certain areas containing Black to elect one of their own to represent them.

The cartoonist’s plan to have Europe hand over Greenland to the US is priceless.

Nice collection! Much appreciated.

My fav - we elected him (with his Tesla gift) to get the job done.

Next - They are not dangerous IF you raise em right. Just read the Baltimore policing have arrested a 10 year old car thief after he plowed the car into a street sign. As for german shepards - my fav cat has one that loves him and SS Notes has a stream of them loving cats and kittens.

If hubby is the breadwinner, like Iran - there'll come a time when the need to accomodate will arrive.

Southern potlucks. My bosslady had me bring slider breads for get-to-gethers. Despite my best efforts, friends found my cooking hilariously bland. I avoid potlucks. if pressed I cheerfully accept friends bringing sandwiches or we all go out.

Did enjoy the pretty lady and the southern accent.

Sunny day leading to a week of pet sitting my fav cat and shots in both eyes. What more could one ask?

Happy days all.

Sheila Barkofske's avatar

Love the Southern Lady! Today’s collection made me think of the biblical story of Pilate asking Jesus ‘what is truth?” Timeless question. 👍

Oh JGM! You out did yourself today! Or maybe I’m just in a funny mood today! The saying that I watch my weight made me cackle!!! Thank you for ALL of these today! Have a wonderful week, everyone! After scrambling to find an alternate flight for my vacation when Spirit collapsed, I’m really ready to relax this week! Coping with severe tree damage after our TN ice storm and broken fences due to that and having to repair my septic tank, the Spirit issue made me go “grrrrrr”. But I found an even better flight and am now ready to hit the wild blue yonder! Love life! Cheer, y’all !

Greetings from MI's Thumb Coast. My sunhat is doffed to Dr. Jill, Dr. Robert, and all their readership, gifted in the subtleness of ironic repartee. Sunday morning's Sunday Strip, a cup of coffee and a biscotti, and the week ahead has a perfect beginning! Thanks, y'all. Rath De Ort!
