Pet Peeve

It strikes me as unlikely that you need another reason to detest our president.

I'm gonna give you one anyway.

In a recent newsletter, an animal shelter here in western Washington described the problem thus:  "Economic woes are playing a dramatic role in increased intakes and longer lengths of stay for animals at shelters. Shelters are struggling to keep up, and it’s getting more difficult by the day to sustain operations while adhering" to a no-kill policy.

In other words, inflation and the cost of living under Trump have made it scary hard for people to keep their pets, and shelters around the nation are floundering.

I defy any lesbian who reads this to get a wink of sleep tonight.
