Ok, now I don't believe you anymore. A MARINE, leaving his boots outside (spider cave) and not policing up his brass? No, this cannot be.

NPR is TDS central. I'm so sick of such stupidity that I turn off any source of it as soon as I identify it. Seriously. I used to listen to a lot of NPR about a decade ago, when they would have a lot of interesting content. But now even what should be plain interesting they infuse with TDS. Like th...

A tiger at the Bronx Zoo tests positive for coronavirus It's not even debatable anymore. All cats must be killed to prevent further spread. Though, to be fair, this article is on CNN and likely isn't accurate. Still, I think all cats should be socially distanced (if not fully quarantined) from huma...

A friend just reported that the grocery store and Home Depot were mad houses. Said a trashy looking lady was bumping up against a guy in line and coughing on people. Apocalypse imminent.

With the amount of feral cats pre-shutdown, I can see them commanding large sections of turf when people emerge from their homes. I imagine a fight tougher th...
