Recently Jason Jordan called me on my limited ways of thinking.
ARE YOU SUGGESTING IT CANNOT BE BOTH? RT @kcarruthers: @jasonjordan but. but. it’s already Caturday. #cakeday

Then I realised that he’s right. It can be both #caturday and #cakeday on the same day!

Kittehs and ice skating – adorableness multiplied
GOLD! The academic linguistics of LOLspeak
HT to @jim_croft and thanks to Boing Boing.
BTW this bears out my notion that Why LOLcats are important.

Freedom is important even for beagles – check out this poignant video
This video is from the Beagle Freedom Project who describe their mission:
“Beagle Freedom Project began in December 2010 when Shannon Keith received information that beagles who were used for animal experiments in a research lab were to be given a chance at freedom. Our mission is rescuing and finding homes for beagles used in laboratory research.”
“Our second rescue from beagles who have lived their entire lives inside a research laboratory. These beagles have known nothing except the confines of metal cages. They have known no soft human touch, no warm bed, no companionship, no love. They have never been outside or sniffed a tree or grass. Finally, after years of being poked and prodded, these beagles are FREE! ARME got the call that a facility was willing to release them to us after they had been used in several tests. We picked them up on June 8th and now they are all in loving foster homes, and one has already been adopted. If you are interested in adopting any of these special beagles, please email us at: shannon@beaglefreedomproject.org. If you cannot adopt, but would like to help, ARME is a non-profit organization and we rely on your donations to continue this work. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation. You can donate here: http://www.beaglefreedomproject.org/donate.php
PLEASE DO NOT BUY PRODUCTS TESTED ON ANIMALS! You can see their faces now….. buy only products that have the cruelty-free symbol.”
