We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
There have been bear sightings all over our area recently - [link] One was hit by a car and killed yesterday, I think.
That eyeshadow art is amazing.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I need to purchase a reliable vehicle. Would this '84 Mustang convertible [link] possibly be seen as a midlife-crisis car? Or would that just be Corvettes and Porches and the like?
Anyway, it's so cute!

Because books.
The kitten video killed me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
OMG, my sister is blowing my mind. She's illustrating inner city homophobia, where guys are so averse to anything gay, they won't say the number two, because it's associated with faeces. Like, serious hoops they're jumping through to count one, one plus one, three, (or "few" or "second" or "1.99"). And they won't say things that have dubious terms in them, like "man" and "anal." So "Manchester" is "Gyalchester" and "bacchanal" is "backagyal".
And there's also a cultural, apparently, aversion to oral sex. So you can't say anything that alludes to that...like, say, "eat."
Now, it's not a majority or anything, but it is insanely crazy, and the topic of her latest paper.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

...seriously? That blows "no homo" out of the water.
I'm assuming those dudes wouldn't approve of me saying "blows."

How does True Blood manage to make werewolves and vampires so unsexy? So many good looking people going to waste. I keep watching, because I figure I'll work out what other people have realised before me, but it's so strident and everyone's so unappealling other than Jesus and Lafayette.

Some of them won't use a straw.
It's that bad.
My sister has to interview these guys without getting on a chair and screaming "BUT YOU ARE ALL SO GAY!!!!!" at them. Which is a testament to something she learnt in higher education.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
I keep doing double-takes watching Rookie Blue because the tall rookie that just got stabbed looks so much like the last guy I dated.
