And it’s not just rodents, there’s recently been speculation that the same parasite might cause the same behavioural changes in humans, too (but further research is required to determine if a causal link actually exists etc. etc. etc.).

My dad was interned in interior British Columbia with his family. I am really really really relieved this is good and I’m hopeful that it’ll strike a chord with at least some viewers who didn’t know what the forced evacuation and internment were like, but I’m not sure I’ll be able to watch it, just because it hits

Ditto.  I was pretty sure with the crew and cast on board that they wouldn’t release anything mediocre or worse, but I’ve been let down before.  My weekend just got 3138% better.

a) I don’t watch Pokemon, but those are definitely onigiri and it’s making me hungry.

Lloyd Cole is channeling some old OMD and I am all here for it.

a) I am so goddamn happy to see Missy again.

One of my friends married and the couple had hyphenated last names. They went with Wong-Wiley, because Wiley-Wong was “problematic”.

Aw man, now I have to find out how I can get her “major” as an honorary title because of course.

Here’s the Reuters investigation that ran shortly before the original raid. Poor uneducated people may have been misled into selling the remains of their loved ones. It was the potential fraud that was being originally investigated by authorities. The descriptions being given of what BRC was doing give me the heebs

Just read Mary Roach’s books, period.  All her stuff is wonderful and entertaining and enlightening.

A friend of mine with the last name Birn had just graduated from med school when she married someone with the last name Grimm and we couldn’t persuade her to hyphenate her last name and force some poor person to page Dr. Grimm-Birn in a hospital.

HELLO DOG I LOVE YOU

Trilingual == three times as hot now. Just sayin’.

It’s weird and awesome to me to see Simu Liu blow up and people talking about Kim’s Convenience because a) it’s a CBC show, and b) it feels like a show that was made for me and exactly three of my friends (one of whom is Korean and had a family convenience store).

Ed Sheeran?  Imagine Dragons?  The Weeknd?

Nah, man, straight girl with a need for speed is happy.  

I swear they issue every Japanese woman over 70 that vest that her grandma (on the left) is wearing. Even my Ferragamo-shoe-and-Lagerfeld-skirt-owning-mom owns one but swears she has no idea where she bought it.

A good friend of mine was convinced for YEARS that INXS’ biggest hit was called “Soup Inside the Bone”, and she had somehow completely avoided their other hit called “Suicide Blonde”, even after seeing them live.
