Shelter Cat Update!

The Olympic games have to be some of the most politically charged sporting events in the world. Countries literally compete for who will spend the most tax dollars displacing poor people for a giant eyesore stadium that will most likely not be used for shit, decades after the games.

I never liked the band’s music, but you had to respect the hell out of their ability as musicians, and Peart especially. RIP.

It’s really very simple. Don’t be an asshole. Don’t be an asshole to fat people, don’t be an asshole to alcoholics, or drug addicts, or the homeless, or...people in general. Not only is it bad to be an asshole, but, if you’re genuinely concerned for someone and your stated goal is to get them to change their…

This. Does the entire world think that overweight and obese people don’t know the consequences of being overweight? Lindy West has an excellent discussion of this in her book Shrill.

They just think that being fat is at best a humiliating flaw and at worst a moral failing.

But what if...

The thought of Strom Thurmond filibustering? filibusting? in hell just made me crack up. With his boney dead ass. Thank you.

If that’s the Best then this year was even worse than I thought. I liked this whole Pets Playing D&D thread that starts here better than most of those.

You forgot Killjoys.

I nominate Roo Sez Bish Please.

12 Monkeys was screwed by its network and became increasingly hard to find in its last two seasons, but it was tightly plotted and too good for this world. I’ll never forget you, Jennifer Goynes.
