Good morning, Cafe! It’s a rainy morning over here, so grab a cuppa and something tasty. Then join us for some this and that and chat.
All are welcome to join the fun, the silliness, the conversations. If you don’t know...just ask! Some things really do require a bit of explanation.
There will be a few surprises along the way, all good ones, we hope.
We are here to keep building the Daily Kos Community.
We post Mon-Sun at 10:30 a.m. Eastern.
Pie fights will be met with outrageous ridicule and insults. Trolls will be incinerated and served at the next group BBQ. As briquettes.
I would’ve preferred snow, but rain is what I got!
.
If I cannot have snow….I can have a snow leopard!
We should all have this mug!!
Throwback….remember when we used to read the comics on Sunday mornings….
I’m just going to point out that our European ancestors believed in some deeply weird stuff!
The Domovoi is a Slavic house spirit/goblin that seems to have a lot in common with the Scottish Brownies.
The Domovoi rarely, if ever, shows it's true face but can shapeshift and appear as a bearded man-like creature, a household animal or often as the head of the household.
It will help the family with household chores & like the Brownie does not ask for much in return. Whilst the Brownies ask for just the slightest appreciation the Domovoi asks only for peace in the household.
Although, they are said to be fond of tobacco so a little treat now and then wouldn't hurt. Unrest such as fighting within the family can cause the Domovoi to become unruly and Bogart -like whereby it will begin to cause damage.
THIS bugger, though….has a Pennywise vibe goin’ on!
My nerdy friend just got a PhD on the history of palindromes.
Now we call him Dr Awkward.
And finally, because we live in hope of a better whirled…
