Since everything is awful and it’s nearly Christmas, who’d like some pictures of ship’s cats? Don’t worry dog lovers, a canine thread’s coming soon! Let’s start with Tiddles, sitting in his favourite spot on the carrier HMS Victorious in 1943 (he liked playing with the bell rope)

I guess this has probably already gone viral somewhere but I am simply dying at this picture of a bear that looks like it hired a photographer to do a glamour shoot

James Baldwin’s message was simple: we’re afraid of love, because we’re afraid of exposing our true selves.
The Lives and Loves of James Baldwin
An older generation dismissed him as passé; a newer one has recast him as a secular saint. But Baldwin’s true message remains more unsettling than either camp recognizes.

27 years ago, two years after the introduction of effective HIV treatment, the Bay Area Reporter, San Francisco’s lesbian and gay community newspaper, ran ‘No Obits’ as its headline.
It was the first edition not to report an AIDS death in almost 15 years.

BIG BOAT STUCK
See the 180m-long cargo ship stuck in the St. Lawrence River near Montreal
The Federal Yamaska ran aground in the river on Aug. 12 near Verchères, Que. Authorities say the ship had a total engine failure and that the low water levels in the St. Lawrence were not to blame.
