Every morning, their 94-year-old neighbor would bring ‘Honey’ dog treats and cuddles

The elderly woman built a routine of feeding her every day, so much so that after she passed, Honey kept returning to the spot, expecting her to come back.

"Wasserman Schultz told me that when she says the Everglades detention center is a 'monument to cruelty' and that the 'cruelty is the point,' she wants to underscore that she sees the facility as a means to an end."

TitleAnatomy of Monsters: Anatomy of a WerewolfDescriptionA silver colored wolf-man stands on his back wolf legs, human-oid arms with talons stretched out in agony. His bare human-oid chest has white hair stretching down from his neck. His wolf head roars, mouth open and eyes wide. Dark grey coloring stretches from his nose, down his back and on to his tail, that’s finished in white. His legs and hands are white fur. He stands on a rocky ground.JokesThe Origin: You become a werewolf when ANOTHER werewolf bites you. Then YOU bite and make ANOTHER werewolf… it’s like multi-level marketing, but less skeevy.Aesthetic: His overall aesthetic is “Muppet that has SEEN some things.”Movement: He moves like an unbalanced washing machine.Scent: And smells like bowling alley carpeting.Identification: (points at neck) “Collar I.D.”Snout Utility: (points to head) The perfect snout to get that last Pringle.Dental Work: (points to head) His teeth are arranged with all the precision of a medieval village built without permits.Schedule: He only shows up once a month. …but that’s still better than Congress. ZING!Fashion: Thank God he got the Levis with the lycra.Aging: (points at tail) He still “Marks his Territory,” but ever since he turned fifty, it just takes longer and longer.

The alt text for the "Anatomy of a Dragon" comic by Dave Kellett is broken down into a title, a visual description, and a list of the jokes included in the illustration:TitleAnatomy of Monsters; Anatomy of a DragonDescriptionA green, scaly, four-legged creature with giant bat-like wings sits on a glistening gold dirt. His head is covered in dark spines, heavy eyebrows cover his eyes. He has a heavy chin and smoke protrudes from one of his nostrils.Jokes & AnnotationsClassification: Remember, Kids! - A dragon has 4 legs/2 wings. - A wyvern has 2 legs/2 wings. - A wyrm has 0 legs/0 wings. - And a WORM is the same as a wyrm, but without the hardcore name.The Vaping Dragon: Smoke constantly drifts from his nostrils like a teenager trying to hide a vape pen.Nature's Balance: Every dragon is born with one armor scale missing, for the benefit of talented archers. (It’s nature’s balance.)Dietary Habits: Practices the “Five-second Rule” for dropped sheep.The Landlord Look: The eyebrows of a grumpy landlord (…who also happens to be a nuclear weapon.)Culinarily Correct: Is convinced that shiny armor is just “Stay-fresh” Packaging.The Proverb: Believes “revenge is a dish best served at 3,000 degrees.”Social Media: Spends his weekends swiping right on pictures of unprotected royal treasuries.

The alt text for the "Anatomy of a Sasquatch" comic by Dave Kellett is structured as follows:TitleAnatomy of Monsters: Anatomy of a SasquatchDescriptionAn ape-like man stands in the classic Big-Foot stance, mid-walk. His arms and legs and shoulders are covered in fur, his hands, feet, biceps and chest are flesh. Behind him is a forest of trees.JokesThe Ultimate Cryptid: He’s the ultimate American cryptid!Posture: (pointing to the previous joke) …with the posture of a middle-aged dad trying to find his glasses.Strength: He’s super strong! He can bench 150! (An F-150)Fur Texture: Fur has the texture of shag carpeting that’s been left in a damp basement since 1974.Hands: Knuckles for DAYYYYYS.Build: His build is the perfect blend of “powerlifter” and “dude powering through a few sleeves of oreos.”Shoulders: Don’t think of it as “Hairy Shoulders,” think of it as “Natural Rain Poncho”Origin: He was made famous by a 1967 filmstrip of what is clearly a dude-in-a-Gorilla-Suit.Stabilization: (pointing to previous joke) (Someone ran the film through modern film stabilization software. It is HILARIOUS how much it's a dude in a suit.)Legs: His calf muscles look like four angry raccoons fighting over a corndog.

TitleAnatomy of Monsters: Anatomy of Baba YagaDescriptionAn old lady with a long crooked nose, white scraggly hair held down by a red head scarf, wide eyes, mouth open in a witchy cackle, walks along a path. She has a brown leather bag across her shoulder decorated with bones. Her dress and cloak are brown and tattered. Behind her is a cottage held up by chicken legs.JokesRole: Part forest-guardian and part local terror, she’s a Slavic witch who rewards the polite and (accidentally!) eats the rude.The "Accident": (pointing to the previous joke) “Accidentally” is doing a lot of heavy lifting, there.Reasonableness: As far as witches go, she’s reasonable! Provided you can survive her easy-to-remember 608-step chores.The Name: If you pretend you’ve never heard it before, doesn’t the name BABA YAGA sound like a Swedish band that won Eurovision in 2009?Real Estate: (pointing to the cottage) Her house walks around on giant chicken legs. Which, Honestly? In this housing market? I’d make an offer.Transportation: She doesn’t ride a broomstick! She rides a mortar-and-pestle.Tech Gap: (pointing to previous joke) Which is fun for her, because everyone born after 1810 has to Google what a “Mortar-and-pestle” is.The Fence: Famously, her house is surrounded by a fence of human bones. Which is an aggressive way of saying “kick that ball into my yard, you AIN’T GETTIN’ IT BACK.”

The US Government to Ask Data Centers How Much Power They Use In a letter obtained by WIRED, the Energy Information Administration tells two senators that it plans to develop a mandatory assessment of data centers' energy use.

GOOD IDEA: The Energy Information Administration is making plans for a mandatory survey of data centers covering their actual energy use, on which we have surprisingly solid little information. @mollytaft.com with the news:

For Netanyahu, the war in Gaza was not enough. Iran was not enough. He is now waging a full-blown war of expansion in Lebanon.

The time is long overdue for Congress to listen to the American people and end U.S. military aid to the extremist Israeli government.

TODAY'S COMIC: Anatomy of a Dragon

a book with 'great titties' written on the cover turns out to be full of teeth and mauls a man. In some ways, though, you want a little danger in your literature.

A budget is a moral document.

Trump cuts taxes for the rich, programs for everyone else — while ballooning the already bloated war budget and raiding the treasury for himself and his family.

And he hopes we’re all too dumb/apathetic to notice.

SEN. @jeffyarbro.bsky.social : “Ending TCAP testing for voucher kids is the clearest evidence yet vouchers were a BAIT & SWITCH. They’re doing it because the data shows voucher kids doing WORSE.”

Even Republicans call it “disingenuous”

Reading that tiny type and committing it to memory was such a core memory for me when it came out.

The Trump administration has abruptly ended a Veterans Affairs home loan safety net, causing thousands of veterans to lose their homes or pay a higher mortgage rate:

"It hurts paying $3,200 a month."

ICE "test run" at the airport screams more than long lines.

Today, I'm introducing my wealth tax — and more than 50 members of Congress are joining me. It’s time for the government to start working for American families, not just the ultra-rich.

Boundaries are healthy.

Your backstory matters.

A guide to survival (results may vary).

If there is one thing I’ve learned is that if a project is struggling, adding a bunch of new trainees always helps, especially if they’re being paid and you’re not, and they’re the reason you’re not being paid

We used to call it “the shits hitting the fan” meal. When they fed you the good stuff, you were about to earn your pay.

The only thing worse is ice cream.

It's my Birthday today! If you'd like to give me a present, please share my works or read and comment my comic "Red Huntress & The Big Bad Wolf"🖤 It would make me really happy!

Sometimes nice things happen!

Loved this series as a kid and I have this issue framed in my office.

Sickening racism from a sitting senator. The Ogles hate is contagious.

You’re either calling this out or normalizing it. There’s no third option.
