Jesse,
do you not like hugs?
Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

So my 4 year old neighbor G just adored Mister Kitty, and was very sad to hear he was gone. So she made me a card, with me, her, her mom and Mister Kitty in it: [link]
Oh sweetheart!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Awww... that is so sweet!

OK, this is the most awesome thing I've seen all week... and maybe all month.
Via Mr. & Mrs. Great Dismal comes word of this (relatively) new and unusually heart-tugging form of adventure sport… Parahawking:
The filmmakers mention Rio at the YouTube link, but this footage looks like it was shot in the sky above the Torrey Pines bluffs of N. County San Diego, California. And here’s another Torrey Pines clip of paraglider falconers, soaring with a Harris Hawk named Shanti.
Harris Hawks are an unusual species of raptor that can adapt splendidly to relationships with humans, becoming one of the most well-loved breeds among North American falconers. (Most raptors prefer to hunt alone, but Harris Hawks hunt together in family groups, and exhibit complex social behavior.)
Other folks have been intentionally paragliding with birds of prey elsewhere in the world for about a decade now, namely Spain and Nepal.
Awesome footage. The hawks actually land on flolks' arms and take off again, while the people are paragliding.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Very sweet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That is so adorable, sarameg.
I love this mugshot. I'd like to be that...sassy if I get busted for anything. Just not that...recalcitrant.

Because books.
Aw, sarameg. Kids are pretty awesome sometimes.
I felt inappropriately touched on the internet and had to close the window.
I thought I was going to be swallowed up by that woman's armpit.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Aww, that card. So sweet.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
That is so sweet, sarameg.

Anyone want to see some NSFW shoes?
Dezeen in Israel: these high-heeled shoes that look like inflatable sex dolls are part of a collection of footwear by Tel Aviv designer Kobi Levi.
The Blow shoes were designed to highlight how high heels are synonymous with sex and accompany a second pair where the heel illustrates the act of sex itself.
eta:
Both designs challenge us to reflect on the common usage of sexual icons and imageries in the everyday media.
Well OK then.
