That’s a lovely and extravagant thing to do for one’s pooch. The framed photos are a nice touch.
I find myself asking “Does the dog know how to turn the light off? Maybe with a bark instead of a clap?”
I used “Killing Me Softly” in an anthropology class on art. Was trying to explain the importance of ambiguity in art. I used it in combination with the book, “The Sorrow of the Lonely and the Burning of the Dancers” where people of one group are treated to dance by the young men of another group representing their deceased sons. The grieving and enraged audience burns the dancers to assuage their grief. Maybe you had to be there.
Not only does the Evil White Cat™ like to steal arches, he prefers to expel the insubordinate in a parabolic arch.
He is the very archetype of the evil villain… from his depraved laugh, to his army of yes-men… err… yes-cats…. to his overarching arrogance.
…
Just how arrogant do you have to be, to have your “secret” hideout lit up like a Christmas tree… shining like a beacon in the darkness of the seamiest quarter of Got-Ham City?
Not only the noon-bright room lights… but the brilliant floodlamps illuminating the building front… informing the world that within rules an arch villain…
a kitty kingpin with plans for world dominance, of the criminal variety.
….
No fear of discovery or reprisal has he!
……
All the customary accoutrements of his position… a red power tie, a chained monocle, no doubt a perfect pawdicure…. give him the self assured air of a cat in charge… a cat who has plans…
a cat who is going places...
a cat who … um… hasn’t yet met his match in BatBasset and Sparrow!
The Evil White Cat™ deliberately restricted the gang’s membership to toms.
She* believes in the superstition that queens are fatally detrimental to the workings of any nefarious arch plan.

To explain that last I’ll use Bill Cosby. I have a good number of his comedy albums, but they’re not funny anymore; if, however, I played them for someone who didn’t know the story, they’d more than likely laugh themselves silly; as I did when I first listened to them. Any good he has done has been nullified by his evil.
It’s the same with Weber. Weber may have been against Hitler as a leader, and mocked him as such, but his attitudes otherwise were apparently in alignment with those of Hitler.

I taught myself to sew on a machine like this… But maybe a bit older.
It was a bit heavier looking, with red, green and gold floral-like decals… no lines on the stitch length regulator, no reverse stitch at all, and more parts exposed.
I paid $15 for it, used, at the Singer store. My dad made me lug it to the car myself, because he thought it was foolish. My mother could barely sew on a button.
It had an electric motor attached to the side… the salesman thought it had been electrified from a treadle model, but I’ve since seen others just like mine.
I made dresses, skirts and blouses with it for my junior and senior years of high school, then used it for about ten more years…. My first mini dress, first tiered skirt, first clothing to sell, etc.
I graduated in my 20’s to a perhaps 1965 model well-used Singer, the kind with disks for different stitches.
I haven’t sewed for years, but that one’s still my only sewing machine. It has made me many wardrobes, and tons of clothes to sell in the 70’s. It’s gear driven, no plastic parts. I’ll keep it.

Line regulators are a real thing, but they cost considerably more than that. They are basically a transformer with a small bit of the winding reversed to counteract any sudden voltage spikes. They are worthwhile if your source is susceptible to an occasional surge, but most modern devices are designed to handle small spikes without any problems.

The nice thing about a black dog is that they can get completely filthy and still look good.
So can a while dog, I guess, depending on your definition of “good.”
But I still prefer a non-filthy dog, I think.
is this a chocolate Basset?

Bark on! Bark Off!
Imagine squeezing in there to tape the drywall, or, lying on his back, to wire the ceiling fixture.
Now that’s devotion.

Is that abandoned warehouse located somewhere in Pitt Falls, Canada, perhaps? 😉
I still don’t think Lily is that evil.
Or that most of them, like Woof, Bluebell, or especially little Oliver, would agree to being evil henchcats.
Disagree! I think it is Lily!

I leaned how to sew on a treadle Singer…
And I still have one tucked away, still usable.
my first commercial machine was a used Singer. man! what a great workhorse!!

I remember these types of phone indexes!
Th folks had one.
My grandmother gave me hers… I think I liked making it pop up more than actually using it.
Also it was full of her numbers and I couldn’t find a refill.
