I don’t know about you, but I cannot wait for this election to be over. The amount of toxicity is overwhelming and polluting every aspect of our lives. It seems like no safe havens exist. I’ve even DNFed two books, not because they were bad, but the jerk-like characters and circumstances felt too real to be entertainment. Books are my happy place and the fact I find little pleasure in reading these days makes Tanya grumpy. And no one wants to deal with a crappy Tanya, especially me. 😀
So what’s a cranky girl to do? Find all the happy things she can and be reminded that America doesn’t suck. That we aren’t a bunch of racist, hate-filled jerks and instead are kitty and doggie lovers who can never have too many funny memes or videos to share with one another and bond over.
Cute Animal Pictures to Soothe Your Soul
Listen, it’s been a rough few months. Ugly. Vile. And stupid. Lots and lots of stupid. Your soul may have shriveled up and needs help. Thanks goodness for cute animal pictures.
Admit it. You already feel a bit better.
Funny Animal Memes to Activate Your Funny Bone
There hasn’t been a whole lot to laugh about lately. So thank goodness for people with too much time on their hands to make some funny memes. Ummm … guilty?
Fur babies are the best. Adorable and hilarious!
Funny Non-Animal Memes Because Who Knew They Existed?
Okay, I did know they existed. But I’ve always gravitated towards animal memes but you know what? We humans are pretty damn funny too!
Yes, I consider minions to be human. Don’t you?
A Video to Remind You Kindness Still Exists
You might not want to watch this if you aren’t somewhere you can’t sniffle or even shed a tear or two. There is a lot of ugliness right now but never forget there is also a lot of goodness too.
Never forget kindness and love trumps hate.
Stay Strong, My Friends
One last nugget to carry you until November 9th and onward.
And I am a proud #NastyWoman.
How are you staying happy this election season?
Tanya
Thanks for the giggles, Tanya!!! We have just turned off the TV. Regardless of which candidate one supports, the bickering is bad for the soul, don’t you think?
Yes, the bickering and vile and everything is just bad for the soul and psyche. I’ve had to turn off the TV and stop reading websites too. It’s too much!
i’m canadian and both my husband and i are not into politics but this is the first time in the history of ever that we’re glued to this campaign AND IT’S NOT EVEN FOR CANADA. he laughed at trump the whole time during the debate, esp Trump’s side comments (ie: “wrong”) when Hillary was speaking. I am so sad that you guys are actually enduring this gong show!
that said, those dog pics! my fav is the smiling dog with goofy 🙂
I imagine the entire world is captivated (and horrified) by our election. It’s surreal. And my favorite animal pics are the tabby on the top right and the pug. They just make me smile because they look so sassy!
Girllll – I needed this post today after that hot mess debate last night.
I so laughed at the life of the party if it ends by 8pm meme – that’s so me 🙂
How do sweet animals not make a day better!
I hear you! I felt the same way. And YES to the life of the party meme! I remember thinking when I got “old” how great it would be to party all the time. And now I’m like, uh … I’m already in my pjs. 🙂
oh my gosh ‘like a boss’ with that cat on the lawn. i die. omg the cat on the coffee mug! hahahahaha. my cats have never done that thank goodness. and yes to nothing being better than a cat, obviously 😉
not gonna lie, whenever i feel down i seek out videos like that faith in humanity one. that and babies eating lemons. one makes me cry and smile, the other makes me laugh. can’t go wrong!
Like a boss – so like a cat. I laughed so hard when I saw that meme because it so very cat-like. Max has never sat on my coffee mug but he likes to dip his paw in my iced tea. 🙂 Yeah, I have to watch funny videos (mostly cats) when I’m feeling down too. They also lift my spirits. I’ve never seen one with babies eating lemons and need to look for one because I could see that being hilarious.
#nastywoman here, too.
Thank you for the fluffy animals and funnies. So very needed.
You’re welcome, fellow #NastyWoman!
Cat funnies are my favorite!!!! Lol, lol, lol 🙂 Thanks for sharing!!
I love cat funnies. They just make me smile. My cat board is my biggest board on pinterest. I’d be embarrassed but I’ve never hidden that I was a #CrazyCatLady.
Wonderful! Yes!!!! I do feel better already 🙂
YAY! This is going to my go-to post when the election starts sucking the life out of me!
