The news is head spinning, and Carol is right: you definitely packed a lot in… I think I’ll go stick my head in a Doritos bag. Smokey has the right idea. Darling picture. She really ate them? We had a pet bunny in El Segundo and, during cuddles, used to feed him mini-marshmallows for treats. Not a good dental outcome :(

He was a beautiful pet. Creative name: Thumper.

Honest to goodness, your own version of “daily dose of perspective” (borrowing from Rob Hubbell) gives a spritz of joy that diffuses a lot of the tension from the news that came before. Love it. Thank you.

I think she mostly licked them. Once she got into the bag, we didn't investigate the remains further after she left.

I had a black tuxedo who would throw you down for a potato chip! None of us ate Doritos, so I don’t know how he felt about them.

My tuxedo isn't interested, but my extremely shy Tortie adores potato chips! She comes from out of her favorite hiding spot if she hears the bag crinkle. I know they aren't good for her--nor me--but I can't help but give her one. She snatches it and runs 10 feet away to eat it, and obviously enjoys it. She was a nearly feral rescue, so I wonder if she survived on them.

Please forgive my inadvertent omission. My bad, compelled to insert here that obviously it’s not all bad news, for sure. Absolutely celebrating Cory Booker’s courageous and phenomenal accomplishment (praying it proves to be a springboard!), and Judge Crawford’s victory is joyously stupendous! HONEST victory! Loving the political cartoons today… so I’m not oblivious, not all doom and gloom. Onward!
