The SS Torbrienne survives to sail another day!

This. One of the other posts around here, either on the Gawker main page or over on Jalopnik had some additional details and just, shit. I really hope he didn’t even see it coming.

I’m so sad about this. He had carved out such a great little niche for himself doing quirky, weird little films, and should have been doing that for years to come. So awful. He was an only child too, his poor parents must be so devastated right now. :(

People have no common sense, I swear. They do it at the Jeremiah mural too. I know it’s hard to fit the whole thing in from the sidewalk right in front, but that’s what the sidewalk across the street is for!

I love the Field! I’m not even exaggerating when I say that going there was a bucket list item crossed off.

We literally had the exact same thought at the exact same time, which has to be proof that it’s so, right?

I somehow missed that when I was in Chicago. I was very excited, however, to get a picture of the Buckingham Fountain to send to my “Married With Children” fan dad.

I don’t think Jeremiah (yes, the alien frog has a name!) is the most popular one in Austin. I think it’s the Jo’s “I love you so much” wall.

This is how. The Republican party at this point is a purchased subsidiary of the NRA.

Well, since you brought it up... guess where the cartels are getting the weapons they’re using to kill people?

My senators would never change their minds because they are terrible people (and one of them maybe is the Zodiac Killer). Maybe I’ll just spam them with this instead letting them know what I think of them and their shitty positions on EVERYTHING:

Now stop trolling. You are 25-30 times more likely to die from guns in the US than you are in another developed nation, in large part due to the fact that we are the only ones with such insanely lax laws regarding gun control.

Agreed. I saw on twitter (again via Igor Volsky, who’s been doing the work of the angels the last few days) that Senate Dems are filibustering now to force a discussion on gun safety measures while the Repubs are, very tellingly, saying nothing.

Every death that’s occurred because a gun was too easy to obtain thanks to their legislative string-pulling can be laid right at their doorsteps. The NRA are fucking murderers.

Damn, where was that Goodwill? Beverly Hills?

I had no idea who he was until this, so thank you for the recap!

The dessert round:

These days they’re sticking iPads on their heads.

My dream job would be making hats for this. Just imagine, it’s like those memes of stuff on bunnies’ and cats’ heads, except with disgustingly rich people who actually pay you (!!!) to pile weird shit on top of their heads.
