Kickass, the doorstop dog, agrees with the keeper that he and Phyllis and their friends are living in a once-beautiful planetary adoption “kennel” that has suddenly made euthanasia a major operational policy, has fired the clean-up crew and the high-quality employees, and now accepts only the very tallest dogs from billionaire donors.
The current kennel manager, who trained for the job by digging around in kitty litter boxes with his friend Epstein and by taking all his Republican associates to obedience training where they learned how to sit-and-stay stupid and intimidated.
The kindly veterinarian at the current planetary kennel has been fired and replaced by a former circus employee whose job was to follow the elephants with a scoop shovel and a bucket.
A new position of “Dog fighting promoter” has been created and is staffed by OJ Simpson’s former parole officer whose hobby is lecturing 5-star generals about war.
(It is the keeper’s thinking that imagining the wobbling planet as a mismanaged pet shelter may help the populace get through at least one more day of the current absurd POTUS reality.
Maybe if Phyllis agrees, she will pat the keeper on the head and say, “Good boy!”
That would make his day!)
