Here's what I think happened in Burma: Some government official read about what Israel was doing to the Palestinians and decided to not only apply it to the Rohingyas, but take it to insane fucking excess as well. And we all know how it's going to end up: The Taliban postures. Burma postures back. The Taliban postures some more. The counterjihadists freak out and pledge undying support to Burma. Then life goes on as normal; no revolutions, no jihads, nothing. I'd say it's like watching cats fight, but they were pretty vicious in the video I looked up.


it looks like something from Moraff's Dungeons of the Unforgiven.


There was a concert Sunday, involving Handel, more Handel, even more Handel, something recent by someone named Oscar, George Gershwin, something I am apparently not American enough to know, and Piazolla of all people.

(I was looking up environmentalist themes in video games and)
The Audacious Epigone has problems with Final Fantasy VII, which gives it points in my book. And he thinks the strongest attack is Omnislash. Um, no. Barret and Vincent can instakill Emerald Weapon with the power of integer overrflow. It just takes a long time to do. He also reviewed Final Fantasy X, and it's just as ridiculous and cringeworthy and ridiculously cringeworthy, but more misogynistic than racist. Instead of complaining about Barret Wallace, he's complaining about woman characters and how modern games don't fit his preferred formula of a male action hero rescuing the princess or whatever.

You're not going to find this by searching for things on the Audacious Epigone. You're not going to see criticism of this guy and his fuckwitted ideas because of blogrolls. On. Every. Page. Of. Supportive. Blogs. And you can't even look up "Audacious Epigone" and "racist" because so many of these people see racism as a mark of pride. Maybe you could look up "audacious epigone" and "fuckwit" or "barret wallace punching the audacious epigone in the face" but nobody's going to do that.

But you're here for the animal facts. I have one. I did not get a picture of the Owl, alas, but here's something about tarantulas: They cast off their exoskeletons after five or six meals, not after a period of time. The more they eat, the more they shed.

I didn't even notice the name when I started reading Aurorarama. Other than the fact that it's fun to say. It shares a despotic Council of Seven with 'Hello,' Said the Stick. If it wasn't so early, I'm sure people would be asking if it was about the massacre. No, it's about a city in the Arctic and secret police and anarchists and secret police masquerading as anarchists.

Some birds do recognize themselves in mirrors. Magpies. Certain dolphins and and Asian elephants recognize themselves too.

The raccoon room was rearranged, with a box for them to hide food in and a stepladder covered in tree branches.

Burning question: So, what is an apt way to describe international politics?
