People keep killing their cats with raw milk and now "raw cat food." Your cat doesn't want raw cat food. She wants Fancy Feast Chicken Feast In Gravy. It tastes like fucking filet mignon to them. Don't kill the only good thing in your life because you saw Jordan Peterson's diet on YouTube once.

Hilarious. Christian school sues because they can't use the PA at the state championship game to say a prayer. 11th Circuit says, well, your team sucks and won't be near a championship anytime soon, so there's no imminent harm.

There’s a fantastic collection called Subpar Parks that an artist has been doing of one-star reviews of national parks, interpreted as travel posters. I really need to get her book, because these are brilliant. mymodernmet.com/national-par...

Oh, this is huge. The link to the announcement itself, if you're avoiding The Bad Place: arpa-h.gov/news-and-eve... The big part of this remit: "creating indoor air biosensors to detect airborne biothreats rapidly". That means airborne virus detection.

A long shot but wtf.

When I was photographing birds on the empty beach south of Barcelona's airport, this magnificent gentleman waved to me, pointed to himself, and immediately struck a pose. I fired off this frame, we shared a laugh from 50m, and went on our ways.

I'd love to get it to him.

You may not like this, but German chocolate cake was named after English-American chocolate maker Samuel German, and uses baking chocolate—which may be the Baker’s Chocolate brand which itself was named after the Baker family who owned that chocolate company.

when you get to the part of open rightwing authoritarian oligarchy where one of the political plotters behind a coup attempt and who has open alliances with neo fascist paramilitary groups is talking openly with friendly police about assassinating members of congress you're in trouble as a society.
