Everything is awful and insists on remaining awful indefinitely, so here’s a picture of Mittens and Coco snuggling

It's a shame FGCU didn't meet the selection criteria, because it could have blown the other schools out of the water. Surrounded on all four sides by gated communities. But hey, who needs a walkable urban environment when you have a Chick-fil-A on campus, right?

There’s no sneaking up on Mittens to take a photo of her while sleeping. She knows. She always knows.

Second verse, same as the first, I guess

A webcomic from the early 2000s called “Get Your War On.” In the first panel, a man in the phone says, “OK, I hate to act like a fucking dumbass, but are we at war? I mean, did we ever officially declare war?” The second panel shows a different man on the phone saying, “Declare war? Who’s got time to declare war when there are so many bombs to drop?”

Thanks as always for the work you put into your videos. I have to ask, though, because this is the internet: Are you going to introduce us to your new tortie!?

This is Julie. I adopted her from the shelter where I volunteered in high school in 2000. She stayed with my parents when I went off to college, but I took her back in 2014. I had to put her down in 2016 when the vet found a mass in her lung that was suffocating her. She was the prettiest cat ever.
