Replying to my own comment, since TheGCU deleted my last one:

There’s a whole lot of room between “no animal should ever be put down ever for any reason” and “dogs should be slaughtered wholesale because there are too many of them and it pisses me off that some of them live in apartments.”

Considering that millions of healthy dogs and cats are euthanized in the U.S. every year, I’m not sure where you’re getting the idea that “no one wants to correct the mistake.” Lowering the population of dogs and cats is a major initiative of just about every shelter and pet rescue out there — they’d just prefer to do…

1) If you don’t own a house, you shouldn’t own a dog.

More than 10 years later, Colbert’s interview with D’Souza is still a thing of beauty and a joy forever.

I never read the True Blood reviews, but I believe Jacob is the one who did the first season of True Detective, and his reviews were amazing. I liked them better than the show (and I liked the show quite a lot).

Is this really TomatoFace? Man, he’s gone downhill. He used to be really good at provoking outrage without obviously trolling.

It’s still weird to me every time I hear Linda Holmes (AKA Miss Alli on TWOP) on NPR. 

Awhile back I desperately needed to do laundry, and I grabbed an old Mountain Goats’ T-shirt, which I hadn’t worn in god knows how many years, that says “Darnielle/Vanderslice 2004.” I didn’t remember that the subhead was”For a less totally fucked-up America” until I was already at the dog park, where there were many,…

Bird rights activist!

Counterpoint: I just got this T-shirt for my birthday and it is awesome.

Given how dark the source material is, that actually doesn’t strike me as unlikely.

I should try these! I like TJ’s meatless orange chicken a lot.

If your looking for a Vegan option just serve a Turkey Burger or some Chicken Hot Dogs. Tell them its vegan imitation and once they finish reveal the truth of why it tasted good.

Did you see that Brent got a dog that got rated? I don’t know why that delights me so much, but it really does.

Despite being a lifelong horror lover, I somehow missed Robert R. McCammon until recently. I started reading Boy’s Life basically on a whim — the e-book was available from the library with no wait time — and was immediately mesmerized. It made me think of Stephen King as his best (though obviously the writing styles…

Dogs are WAY too good to support Trump. All of them. The worst dog in the world wouldn’t lower itself that much.

I read an article in the Washington Post recently about a vet who does house calls for pets that have to euthanized so they can die in a place where they feel safe, surrounded by people they love. She told a story about a teenage girl who stopped her just before she started the injection, ran out of the room, and came…

The Hollywood Reporter had a pretty horrifying article in 2013 about just how misleading the American Humane Association’s “no animals were harmed” claim is, and how the association actively works to protect the productions at the expense of the animals. Unfortunately the article doesn’t seem to be online anymore, but…

That’s been happening to me for quite awhile. It’s really frustrating, because it basically makes it impossible to read pending comments if they aren’t direct replies to you.
