You really are a little like that small dark voice in the back of my head with this comment. My mom died of liver cancer. My SO's mom is a breast cancer survivor. There are indeed days where I can't help but ponder if the only real difference is that livers aren't sexy.

All the puppies have me laugh crying too. This is Jasper. We lost him in May, and while I don't feel ready for a new dog yet, facing the neighborhood deer alone at night is starting to wear me down. (There's a 6 point buck who likes our lawn and is getting a little ballsy and territorial.) Thoughts?

Amen. I have been in the same 25 lb weight range since like middle school, and holy hell, my body has been all kinds of shapes. And hormones effect that a lot! When I get my period I usually weigh around 2 lbs less, but need to wear a pant size up. My nerdy mister, though, has been slimming down very steadily over the…

I liked this sooo much better. It was almost more informative. And it had a happier ending than the election will. I regret deeply that Abraham Lincoln is unlikely to rise from the dead to bitch slap anyone.

Amen. I hope you succeed. And when you do, please scream it from every rooftop you can climb up on.

Worth it!! Cannot contain the squee!

So what you are all saying is that there's totally something to that episode of Family Guy...

$800/hr!! Damn! She charges more than twice what my mother in law does as a pretty damn effective divorce lawyer with multiple degrees in psychotherapy and an MFT license.

Seriously, you'd think they could do better. They've got Pixar...

While some of it is definitely clone stamped out, a lot of the loss in muscle tone strikes me as a result of them pulling up the midtones in leveling, probably more to take out the harsh shadows rather than that.

These belong in Matthew Barney's Cremaster Cycle....

Gone now.

Tell me about it. I migrated to Jez from Gizmodo (which I started reading in like '03-'04), but they haven't been the same since the iphone 4 crap. I mean, half of the articles over there now don't have anything to do with their headlines or are just aggregations from twitter, and some of them really completely have…

I love the fascination the one fox has with it- all those test jumps, nose straight down.

IDK, it's definitely curdling the cream in the photo. I doubt Tully or Black Bush would do that. I think it's a bit too acidic for this kind of drink.

Foxes on a trampoline!!

The shots of kids in classes seriously bother me. That's not really public in the same way as, say, the mall or the zoo. Kids legally have to be there, are almost 100% under 18 years of age, and since the public is generally not allowed to walk in and out of a high school at will, that strikes me as a case of a…

Everyone we've met who's met him has told us, he's pretty annoying and self-important. Also this story.

Ah, but that's half the fun of it! Their code never runs the same way twice!
