- NY State Senator Ruben Diaz just compared the pro-choice movement to Nazis. Hasn’t he ever heard of Godwin’s law? (The Frisky)
The Mary Sue discovered these cute kitty shaped self defense devices (hint: imagine two of your fingers in the eye holes), realized they don’t ship to our state, and then a discussion ensued about shipping these to our parents. We want to pass that joy on to you. (Wicked Clothes)
