Pigeon Report
I beg of you, please don’t ask me how I ended up on the Wikipedia page for “Pigeon Photography.” Unsurprisingly pigeons were spies during World War One for… you guessed it folks, the freakin’ Germans. Way to go pigeons, thanks for standing up for IMPERIALISM.
I’ll be following up with more information after I digest the “War Pigeon” Wikipedia page.

Are you okay? Checking in on my favorite d-listers
James Blunt, a stupid British pop star who is known for “Beautiful,” easily one of the worst songs of all time, is also known for…SCURVY.
I hate everything about this story, but it does provide a really great example of why men suck. So recently James Blunt told a story about when he was an engineering student, a field that is notoriously dominated by men. There were like three women and 67098998 men at his school and some of these three women were vegan (which is fine!!) so James Blunt, who for all intensive purposes seems to have the charm of a rotten pile of chum, decided to just eat meat? Way to make your female colleagues feel welcome bro.
Well joke’s on him because he got scurvy like a 19th century LOSER. Honestly as punishment we should force him to work on a whaler for the rest of his life.
Answer: I wish he still had it
The weirdest shit I saw on Craigslist recently
I need this in my life so badly but my boyfriend™ is so square and I swear to god he’s going to say something unreasonable like “this makes me uncomfortable” or “this is demeaning to women” or “Bon Jovi sucks” if I bring it home. To which I say OKAY they do suck but it’s demeaning to ME (a woman) that I don’t have this clock!!!
