The internet moves pretty fast and all, but I’d say this is probably about the best baby goat electronic music video tribute I’ve seen in about a week or so. Chances are high that it will get topped later today, though, so check it out during the slim several hours in which it will be […]

Recently my cat has been coming home smelling—I am not making this up—like cheap perfume and cigarettes. This video is all my worst fears confirmed. Queequeg, that’s it, we’re getting you a camera.

GUYS! I’ve Found Alison Hallett’s Theme Song, Guys!
I’m of the opinion that everyone needs a theme song. A short version of the song would play whenever they entered a room, and a longer version would play when they’re walking down the street.

Japan’s Cat Island
Discovery posted this video—from 2009—of Japan’s Cat Island, which is a small island home to about 100 “mostly elderly” residents and a whole lotta cats.
