Mayday, Mayday

 

Anybody know which state issued that?  I have a sudden need to know.

"THREE-LEGGED DOG WITH CANCER SAVES BABY OTTER IN MINNESOTA RIVER DRAMA"

His name is Gus.  

A young girl was attacked by a coyote on Huntington Beach in California.

An Alabama public health worker was mauled to death by a pack of dogs while investigating a previous mauling.  The owner has been charged with manslaughter.

"You gotta sit here and listen to this," Governor Janet Mills of Maine said to a security guard, while Governor Kate Brown of Oregon called her husband.  The spectacle was Trump on a conference call foaming at the mouth because of protests over the murder of George Floyd.  The lunatic told them he was putting General Mark Milley in charge with instructions to "beat the fuck" out of BLM or "shoot them."  It's a good thing he's not a racist.

Aaron von Ehlinger used to be an Idaho legislator.  Now he's a convicted rapist.  The victim was a nineteen-year-old intern.

Tennessee's in the news and that can't be good.  A state pol called Jerry Sexton (R-Bean Station, I swear) has a bill to put political appointees in charge of censoring library books and has offered to burn any they don't approve, crackle crackle crackle.  But Governor Lee, he done signed the bill so's any wormy Tennesseans can buy ivermectin without a prescription.  Swings and roundabouts.

I'm going back and stare at that sweet otter baby until I feel calmer.
