The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin And if BACA could ever be considered cute, adorable or uplifting, Peter Rabbit, Tank Killer surely is.

Giles Coren has led me astray.  Though I've only lived in the continental US for a few years, I now no longer think of the gray squirrel as a cute and fluffy neighborhood companion. But I do remember seeing these several years ago when I visited the Grand Canyon.   These are Abert's squirrels.   These are Kaibab squirrels, which are an example of evolutionary divergence through geographic isolation. Both species are cute as gently caress.

Around here we get Douglas Squirrels which are brown black with orange tummies. They are also a lot smaller than the gray squirrels I lived near as a child. They are very very cute.

One of my family's cats just died. She was 15 years old. She loved three people and one cat and hated everything and everybody else, but if you were one of those people she was pretty awesome and as far as cat's life went, she had a good one. I didn't find any pictures of her on my new computer, so here is a cute cat to commemorate her life. I know she would have hated it with passion. Other cats were her favorite thing to hate.   stupid cat

DarkCrawler posted:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gq7ZgXz_YLc That is just wonderful. That first boy being interviewed...man, bless his parents for raising him not only to respect others but also to be open about his feelings. Stories like this make me think there's going to be a huge pushback against bullying in the youngest generation.

Ghost Cow Goes Boo posted:Bikers are pretty often real stand-up guys. I think it's just that there's no such creature as the "biker." Criminal thug rapist scumbags ride motorcycles, and church-going orthodontists who spend their weekends feeding the homeless ride motorcycles. There's this persistent image of the biker as an outlaw that developed (in America, at least) in the post-World War II years and refuses to go away. A motorcycle is a means of transportation, not a definer of your humanity.

I don't think he's talking about "biker" as just any dude riding a bike, but a guy who has a leather vest with a patch, tattoos etc. Your point obviously stands there too, though.
