However, I'm reluctant to say that violence against any single group of people should be removed from creative work since that has the potential to shut down a vein of narrative.

It's a good thing that's not what she said, right?

I'd love to see an entire season of The Bachelor or Bachelorette take place inside an IKEA. The whole time. Rose ceremonies and all. Instead of bottomless alcohol, bottomless swedish meatballs. Date nights would include things like putting together a Tarva 3-drawer chest and seeing who wants to kill each other first.

Kaylee wore it better AND she had Captain Tightpants to escort her.

'Nuff said.

It's definitely important to note that this came from the filthy gnomes in the House of Representatives. The Senate's reputation as a graceful, majestic gaggle of geese, scudding imperially through governmental waters, remains unsullied.

This can only be John Boehner: most likely transphobic and definitely jealous of a show called "Orange is the New Black".

You mean the ones conveniently leaked a full 11 days after the incident?

my mom had the fucking audacity to say 'we don't know what happened' and i wanted to be like WE LITERALLY KNOW BECAUSE THERE WERE LITERAL WITNESSES TO HIS LITERAL MURDER.

I'm following the story from Europe and there is such a disconnect between the view of events here and what I see Americans posting on Facebook and Twitter.

Come the fuck on white people.

I learned from a 45-year-old country song exactly why God made girls: to tell off the shaming bigots of the Harper Valley PTA.

That's the breeding. They have abnormally short legs. Think like a dachsund, except instead of being bred slowly into a weird conformation over several generations they're a spontaneous mutation that probably affects growth factor sensitivity or something. Apparently it isn't true dwarfism exactly. The wikipedia…

I wish I could like this more but I really don't like munchkin cats. :( Sorry.

Apparently they're not completely dwarves, but the mutation is homozygous lethal. So basically if you breed two of them together, a quarter of offspring are not viable and a quarter are not munchkins. Presumably for the sake of health you'd breed non-munchkin to munchkin... but then you'd be getting half of offspring…

And munchkins of all things, too. They're really cute, sure, but the health of them is a considered a bit dubious/controversial. I'm sort of uncomfortable with breeding animals in a way that compromises their mobility or purposefully introduces a lethal mutation just for the sake of appearances. After all, munchkins…

and by trees, you mean....

I don't think I'd have the self-control. I'm the parent whose kid will keep saying "fuck" in mixed company because he learns that I laugh when he does it.

Clearly I should never have kids because I cannot stop laughing at the earnest tears of little children.

Aww, I hope Uncle Dave knows he is so loved.
