Someone who bought a frog facts advent calendar for a friend's kid last year just emailed me.

Apparently that kid got a different advent calendar this year, and when he opened it he said, “These are HORRIBLE! They’re not teaching me anything about frogs!”

This kid gets it.

I signed a bunch of copies at Woodworking at Women and Children First bookstore in Chicago, where I am annoyingly stranded for 36 hours. It is in STAFF PICKS.

Also, it is my BIRTHDAY, so you should buy my book in MY HONOR.

Props to the protestors who the New York Times credits for foiling ICE’s intended raid in Chinatown earlier today.

So many people are showing they know what it means to be New Yorkers!

“Unused”????
New acting director of CDC Jim O'Neill expressed being pro paid organ donation.

"There are plenty of healthy spare kidneys walking around, unused."

What creates this culture of cop on cop violence? I blame being dependent on government money.
Oh and at one point, one cop pepper-sprayed another cop. (Around the 12-second mark.)

The X-Files is genuinely a timelessly good show, because when not focusing on overarching conspiracy plot, they would really just focus on a single concept and quite crucially, it would cast an incredible actor to center the episode around who would be utterly god damn captivating to watch.
