Why Me? by Catturd.
I'm exhausted - mentally and physically. This Catturd thing has been a 5 year rollercoaster ride. I basically work 7 days a week; no days off, no vacations. I don't even know how I got here. I often ask, why me?
I have no idea how I've gained such a large following - sometimes I think it's mostly luck. Most the larger accounts on the conservative side have lived a very different life than me. In short, they did most everything right in life, and I did almost everything wrong - lol.
You couldn't get a more flawed and imperfect person than me. Although I've never been in trouble with the law, arrested, and only had one traffic ticket in my life - I was aimlessly adrift for many of my early years.
I joined the Army at 17-years-old, once my service was over - I basically started immediately screwing up. I was so lost. I had several failed marriages when I was way too young and had no idea what love was. Then I spent over a decade as a hippie musician, growing my hair, carefree, smoking weed, drinking too much, and even using some hard drugs. (I even had a VW hippie van - lol ) I was homeless at one point, living in a tent beside a lake for months. I fought alcoholism pretty hard during these times and still have to watch myself today.
Don't get me wrong, I don't regret a moment of my life, because I strongly believe it takes lots of failures to become successful at anything.
I finally seemed to get my shit together around the age of 40. It took me long enough - lol.
At the age of 54, I decided to join social media for the first time because I suddenly got arthritis in my fingers where I lost the ability to play guitar. I was lost again and needed some kind of artistic outlet. Sometimes I think Catturd saved me in a way.
With this reach and when you truly speak your mind, The Left will viscously try to destroy you. YOU MUST BE SILENCED and it never ends.
For just giving my honest opinions, I've been doxxed, harassed, 100 hit pieces written about me, people come by house and scream obscenities, tons of death threats, and on and on. Everyone I've known for 40 years and many of my family members have been bullied and relentlessly harassed for years.
Sometimes I don't know why a screw-up like me was give this much reach. I pray every night I'll use this opportunity the right way to help as many people as possible - and pets. I'm always struggling in which direction to go.
I can honestly say, however, the love I get from my followers pushes me through the hard times, when I'm exhausted or down. Whether it's on social media or on our podcast, I try to make people laugh every day to ease the pain of what this country is going through.
In closing on this novel, I feel so blessed to have the support and love from so many of you. I don't claim to be perfect, but I'll always give you my raw and unfiltered opinions, right or wrong. I'm not afraid and I'm fighting for this country as hard as I can.
All of you saved me - I love you all.

Good old Catturd. A day without Catturd is like a day without... oh never mind.
Without you.π€π
Ah! You're just an old softie.
I will always be whatever you want me to be.π€π
All I want is for you to always be my friend. And so far you haven't let me down.
Why would I let you down? You are like the morning light for me.β€οΈπ
Good thing you don't see me first thing in the morning. I guarantee you I'm anything but sunshine. LOL.
Well, I begin remote working in almost Donald Duckβs attire. Good for others that they donβt see me before my two mugs of coffee and morning shave/shower.
A soft penisse? π
Ah/oh! I guess I said the wrong thing that time.
I dunno...you gave me a great belly laugh after a very difficult week. I think you said exactly the right thing!
Interestingly, in Greek "wanker" is "malaka", which literally means "softie". So ... yes. ;-)
Whatever, but that's not how I meant it. Go ahead and have your fun with it. God bless.
Have a chuckle with us, Mary. We all put our foot in our mouth sometimes (I do it way too much), and if we can't laugh sometimes then how can we make it through all this crap in the world these days?
Your comment brightened my day, I'm glad you gave my naughty mind something to get a little exercise with.
Two things Catturd. God chooses imperfect people quite often to do his work and God has a sense of humor. Your humor makes my day often.
LOL. You are 100% correct. God sure have a sense of humor
We are with you Catturd! WWG1WGA!
I think it's hilarious our favorite President has retweeted an account named Catturd. That will be in the history books!
I wonder if I will live long enough to see a dissertation. Catturd: Insights on the Use of Social Media as Psychological Warfare During the Second Revolution.
KEK!!! Make education fun and informative again!
Ah, the acronym is: MEFIA.. Fits perfectly IMHO...
It's fitting, given how cats are basically the unofficial mascots of imageboard culture. E.g. "it's Caturday, post cats", cats as meme subjects, even the villain of the old videogame Wing Commander is named "CATS" (the origin of the "all your base are belong to us" meme), and so on.
A person who has had nothing interesting happen to them in life has no stories to tell.
People mess up all the time. The more you are experienced with messing up, the more other people can relate to you.
Ideally, everyone should mess up bettering oneself.ππ»
Good, that means I'm ideal every day. π€£
True. And getting through those tough times only makes one stronger. It sucks at first. But I'm always grateful for the experience afterwards. When I understand the full picture.
What an interesting, funny, brilliant person. The 30's had Will Rogers. We have Catturd. Those are some mighty big boots to fill. Love you.
Well, Rogers was a card carrying democrat and may have even been a socialist. I supported both Bushes and even sent actual money to NoName. I imagine there's a lot of us in this movement.
Yes there are. We've admitted our mistakes and moved on. We can't go back and do it over, unfortunately.
Good point; agreed. And there's plenty of really good music that I still enjoy, despite being made famous by people who literally sold their souls.
I think Will said it best when asked what political party he was a member of. He answered, βI am not a member of any organized party, Iβm a democrat.β The Demβs and Repubβs were quite a bit different back then. They both seemed to have a bit of Patriotism in their hearts. Canβt say a lot for either party now.
Na
I have never sent money for politician except, you guess it, Trump. I did vote for Obummer once.
Well the money was because of Obama. I had done my due diligence with that one and knew we were buying a pig in a polk. Proved worse than I ever dreamed because the press.
You are very smart.
We love catturd in our house!
Not gana lie, i nearly teared up. Love how humble that was
Catturd is the best of the best!!

Thank you, Catturd! Keep up the great work, and the good fight.
Catturd has been awesome.
That was a great read because it made me feel MUCH better about my own life choices.
Why you? Sometimes the most awake people are the ones that have gone down the wrong road. Some of the more helpful go back to the crossroads and warn the new travelers to choose the other path. The one where they don't make the same mistakes that you have and to help them make some of the right decisions that you have made. We all have something to teach each other and can bring out collective experiences together to forge a new path, but we still need guides to point the way. You have chosen to be a guide and people have decided to listen. It is an awesome responsibility, but it is a noble one. Carry on brother, when you are tired, we will help carry the load, when your journey is done, someone else will carry on. We all play a part, and when the time comes we will all have to stand together. WWG1WGA
Amen to that fren
Read this while drinking from my Catturd cup. I also have a beanie and his book. That's how I support this movement.
God bless you, Catturd. You are a national treasure πΊπΈ
Damn it!!! A cat just made me cry!!!!
Glad to see you included pets in your sphere of mercy. That is a blessing from St. Francis of Assisi and, while I am not a Catholic, I do believe it is a blessing. No one can take it from you. Sleep well with it.
Love you CATTURD!
When someone is flawed, and has to battle for their faith and their success, they have the most appreciation for it.
Looks like Catturd has taken a difficult road to get to where he is but I'll bet his strength of character is amazing.
He earned his place amongst the warriors and we appreciate him.
From your litter box to mine - thanks!!
God always uses the most unlikely person.
Nothing beats a failure like a try.
Think on that.
Dang onions.
Wow that was amazing thank you for sharing it
Amen !!
Wow. I may have to create a twat account just to reply to this and send some love!
how did he get so big on twitter during the censorship reign of twitter 1.0??
President Trump re-tweeted a few of his tweets. He was popular then, but that really upped his popularity. Especially when msm was making fun of his name.
Pretty sure he got banned when most of us did in 2020. When Elon took over, he questioned why he was still banned when others were lifted. Elon unbanned him.
Wow! π±

Hey Catturd... you're awesome!! not a one of us is perfect! not a one of us is without fault! Keep on the good fight and the good posts! There's a great ending on the other side, whether it's in this life or the next. Keep that chin up and just know that there's a whole army of pepe's out here to back you up!

Thank you! PSYOP!
When did TWIT go beyond 140 characters?
I know, out of the loop.
wow I thought he was 30 !
Clandestine posted that he is 30, which makes sense.
