"The palace was more than 160,000 square feet in area, three times larger than the Parthenon, and was the largest building in Classical Greece.

"Parliamentary obstructionism is a part of legitimate Parliamentary tactics" —Arun Jaitley, Leader of Opposition, Rajya Sabha, 2011.

We people, I tell you, are complete dolts. And BJP continues to grind chillies on all our heads while chanting Ram's name. 🤷

Human rights are not “complicated.” They are understood in every language on the planet, they are universal, and don’t give ghouls an inch on them or you will lose yours, eventually.

Two straight weeks of roasting in front of the fireplace. 🔥 🐈

<Go away, human. And don’t bother us unless it’s time for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, supper, or bedtime snack. Then you may spoon-feed us canned food in front of the fireplace so we don’t have to raise our heads. Perhaps a brief rub of our warm, soft bellies. But not too much. Now begone until you are summoned again!>

“Nope. Nope. Nope.

There is *no* effing way that you’re getting me in that carrier.

As in no chance whatsoever. Nada. Zero. Because you’re fond of the flesh on your hands.

So yeah, please enjoy my so-called ‘dream vacation’.

Because I’m staying right here—and also selling the house while you’re gone.”
