Some Christian fundies (citing the Bible) say we should do that.

“a rigid feminine pleasure device.”

OMG, that made my day. Thank you.

Timelies all!

Hil, I think that person takes the Colbert Report too seriously.

Edited to add: Heh, cross-post.

West of Cody, WY is the east entrance to Yellowstone, and there aren't many miles between there and town. It is sort of a weird place to relocate a bear, although he's clearly crazy about everything else.

TPM article on the bear thing:

Social Conservative Bryan Fischer: Get Rid Of The 'Curse' That Is The Grizzly Bear

eta:

...

"God makes it clear in Scripture that deaths of people and livestock at the hands of savage beasts is a sign that the land is under a curse. The tragic thing here is that we are bringing this curse upon ourselves," Fischer writes.

Fischer is a favorite of social conservative Republicans, and even spoke at the Values Voter summit this fall alongside Mitt Romney, Jim DeMint, and other big-name Republicans. Many also know him for having suggested that there should be "no more mosques, period" in the U.S. because "every single mosque is a potential terror training center or recruitment center for jihad."

But Fischer also has a history of outrage over animal attacks. He was furious that the killer whale Tilikum killed a trainer at SeaWorld Orlando in February, because it's just part of the "ongoing failure of the West to take counsel on practical matters from the Scripture."

"If the counsel of the Judeo-Christian tradition had been followed, Tillikum would have been put out of everyone's misery back in 1991 and would not have had the opportunity to claim two more human lives," he wrote at the time.

I don't think I've ever seen an ep of MSCL. Huh.

ION, Loki has NO SENSE. Random person walking down the street? OMGDANGERFLEE! Random person walking a bigass dog? What's that? Let's get closer! Let's approach!

Uh, no. Bigass no. And then the nerve to grumble at me when I scoop him up.

I think Loki sounds like a fun cat.

IOCatN, I like to make this very cheap cat toy out of one of those plastic rings that are left on a bottle of milk after you take the top off, and a piece of string. Anyway, Squeaky does this thing where she grabs the plastic ring out of the air using only one paw. Then she continues to hold it with one paw while she bites it. I can tug on the string fairly hard (you know, for kitty play) and she can hang onto the plastic ring with one paw.

I don't know if this is common cat behavior and I never noticed it before, or if she's unusual in her ability to do this.

eta: I think she hooks her claws around the ring and then retracts them.

He really is a trip.

Cheap toys are usually the most successful. We used to refer to that part of the milk cap specifically as the catthing. We'd peel 'em off and toss it on the floor without thinking. I still have the impulse to do that with those kind of caps despite not buying milk in ages.

I don't know what to make for dinner. Larb? Tacos? Taco salad? Maybe something with squash or potatoes or beets?

Ideally I should make something that's quick to prepare, since I'm still suffering from the woozies.

I was going to vote beets but if you have woozies, maybe more protein. Are tacos fast for you? Those.
