There's this ad everywhere for an advent calendar of UGLY MEDIEVAL CATS and they look AMAZING but then if you look at the Amazon reviews they look amazing in a very different way and I don't know which part I love the most.
Alt Text: A series of 24 extremely quirky versions of medieval manuscript cats, now as figurines—with a hand-painted appearance. Hard to tell what's real. Many of the cats look like Elon Musk.
Alt Text: A plastic case with extremely ridiculous plastic cheap cats in a few colors, like the stuff you get at the dentist's office.
Alt Text: A shitty plastic cat, beige plastic with a red and white ruffle, and a strange stare, extremely undetailed.

A thought I kept having last night was that, in some way that's hard to pin down, Rush now passes the Bechdel test.
Alt Text: A completely ridiculous stage with Rush on it and the huge Rush logo and the drummer Anika projected on top.

I think of these two improvised girders holding up our crumbling subway station as baba yaga legs
Alt Text: A subway stop in NYC. Two girders made up of odd shaped metal subsections extend platform to roof, wrapped in rubber numbers and zebra striped yellow and white tape. They taper to a huge screw at the bottom which is inserted into a broad flat metal foot, giving the whole thing an iron-giant-chicken-foot vibe. It does not in any way seem great or indicative of a robust and forward-looking attention to public infrastructure.

I genuinely appreciate the way Rush fans are like, “Oh no, they're terrible. It's going to be a terrible concert. Geddy Lee may or may not be alive. I am so excited to see them.”

If feels like they're putting the foot down on the gas pedal in order to leap the chasm. But they fired all the physicists who could tell them to stop.
Alt Text: A knobby, vaguely pyramidal white ceramic object on a kitchen counter, perhaps a foot tall, with a black rough metal bird perched atop; the pyramidal ceramic has a series of pouchlike crevices with labial rims, nestling nine white eggs; those are the visible eggs. The caption reads "This piece is so sweet and it was designed to hold eggs." While the video does not directly address it, it is reasonable to assume that this is how new Julianne Moores are incubated.

Most New York City moment of my entire life happened yesterday. I was sitting on a bench outside of WNYC to kill time before going up and a truck driver and a couple on the sidewalk had an argument about whether they’d just seen Lenny Kravitz.

Alt Text: Spam text: If you're hoping for overnight arrangements, that's perfectly fine with us. Adult toys are also more than welcome. The one thing we truly value is a respectful atmosphere — no alcohol, and nothing rough. We are a few close friends, all twenty-six, just out of college, looking to meet mature gentlemen around this area. And our time is entirely flexible: your free time is our free time.
