I cannot stop laughing at your scale. It fits nicely with my favorite unit of measure for this, Oasis Amounts of Cocaine.

Too late to edit, so: the rescue is in Jackson, MO.

The link above to the “much bigger & less viral dog” takes you to a photo of Narwhal & Mac - the namesake dog of Mac’s Mission. If that’s the other dog that you believe he was rescued with (I’ve followed this rescue on IG for a while now & didn’t see another pup rescued at the same time?) then that’s an error.

Not sure, but this article by Susan Orlean is amazing:

Christ, you can hear him wheezing in the audio clip. You can almost hear him sweating.

For a second, my brain said George C. = Costanza.

Thanks - I saw her IG post, and wondered why this article didn’t seem to mention the 3rd slide? page? (idk I’m old)

It seems pretty clear to me that in the course of reporting the Weinstein story - which was presumably first a piece for NBC TV, which by necessity morphed into a print article when it moved to The New Yorker - a second story started to emerge. It’s literally in the title of this book, “Catch & Kill.” Killing Farrow’s…

Yeah, I saw something about this story yesterday & wondered how the hell the Marshall Islands came into play? Ding ding ding!!!

It is depressing, and I hope that neither he, nor any of his classmates, ever need to use it. But I’ve been in situations where the cultural programming in my brain was louder than the physical instinct to protect myself.

I appreciate the clarification. I thought that the PRA’s provisions for preserving Presidential communications (though not for making them all public) was somehow relevant. The more you know!

The Presidential Records Act doesn’t apply to members of Congress.

She is never boring! I don’t want to dox her, so I’m gonna be stingy with the details. If ever we find ourselves at the same snore-fest industry event I’ll spill all the beans I’ve got.

Unrelated (I think) anecdote: a friend of mine who works in casting happens to be Wiccan. She told me that she put a hex on her apartment that wouldn’t let anyone with “bad intentions” cross her threshold. A friend of hers came by one day & had a buddy in tow - Terence Howard. (This was slightly before Hustle & Flow…

White people on Instagram.

Between that & the Smurf Village reference, I am very confused.

I read a BBC article about this story out loud to my family! My sister-in-law all but refused to believe it wasn’t from The Onion.

Starred because we clearly share the same obsession. I can’t figure out if I need a hobby, or if this is it?

This right here is why I keep scrolling down. My 6 y.o. & I thank you.
