If I fits, I sits. True for all cats, no matter the size.

How cis-normative of you.

That was kinda kinky, I think? Engine spiked a few times reading that...

Sheesh. From Wikipedia:
Highly distinctive, the male lion is easily recognised by its mane,...
...and here I thought you fucking knew everything.
-
What are you both even talking about?
I didn't quite get boom's comment. It is indeed a male cat.
But in that case objection should have been about heteronormativity, no.Disclaimer: coffees consumed since waking up: 0.

It could be a trans lion.

What are you both even talking about?
He accused me of being "cis-normative" in my usage, which was a reference to the recently coined word "cisgender"; meaning, "where individuals' experiences of their own gender agree with the sex they were assigned at birth."
(The prefix "cis-" means, on the same side of. There's no other use of the made up "cis-normative" term that would be applicable to what I wrote.)
In other words, I take it that he thought he caught me in a gender assumption, that the lion was male. But only male lions have manes, so in fact I wasn't assuming anything. Instead, I was trying to be funny, suggesting that the thing to do with a wheelbarrow full of lion was to quick wheel it down to the lake for a bath--which I would expect to be just a bit hazardous.
So in actuality, @boomzilla whooshed.

FTFY.
Or do you assume that pre-op trans-female lions are male, you fucking bigot?

...and right on schedule, here's another one who knows I am a Liberal...and the universe is not big enough to hold him, plus a Liberal, either.
I know of no evidence whatsoever that suggests that a lion can be cis-, trans-, or etc. There are no laws about gender with respect to lions. It's only conservative bigots who force us to invent words like that so we don't accidentally go into the wrong bathroom; because conservatives never grow up past the cooties phase.

Thanks, I was missing this particular bit.

I guess it's another proof I'm a proud patriarchy shitlord that I didn't see your post as anything else, even after @boomzilla's comment.

Seems to me that the only way for you to remain a Liberal is if everyone else just disappears. That's very ...liberal of you.

Not at all. You weren't aware that @boomzilla, @FrostCat, and @ben_lubar have been trying to start a flame war with the Liberals (such as me) for a couple weeks now. They thought they got one going with this, but after my knee-jerk first response, I didn't bite on the ensuing flood of flames.

I'm not into US politics, so I don't really
carehave an opinion about it.Anyway, I think boomzilla's post was more of a play on our recent flamewar thread about cis issues. I just didn't recognise it as such because of lack of coffee.

Doubtful.
I know of no evidence whatsoever that suggests that a lion can be cis-, trans-, or etc.
Have you seen evidence of jokes?

Ooh...I wasn't aware either. Thanks for the heads up! I was just calling out race baiting idiots. If you feel the need to defend them, well, have at it.

Not all men have penises, not only woman can have abortions. Why impose our cis-prejudices on the animal kingdom? Shameful.

This is flame-bait (which I fell for, like an idiot) and this is a flame. Now you know.

You deserved the flame for basically defending race baiting idiots.

So I was watching Z Nation this weekend. It's typical scifi fare, full of cheese, and the second season is going for a more fantastical feel. At any rate, episode 3 had them walking along near a road and seeing a truck go by, when one character asked what that was and another said "well, it ain't the 3:10 to Yuma." I wasn't expecting a reference like that, but there it was.

They used to be (even) better.

I disagree. I think they've gotten much less esoteric without losing any of the humor. (You still get occasional ones where he sets up this crazy stupid hypothetical world and runs it to its crazy stupid hypothetical ending, but they're less frequently. Reading comics like the above is about 47 times more enjoyable than reading a comic about economists figuring out they can buy a child's love for $3.64 and then people have kids to get money and then the price collapses and the moral of the story is there isn't ever any.)

That's the current style.
I'm thinking back in the day, when he mostly did one-panel comics, with a caption underneath.

A new NASA study found that Antarctica has been adding more ice than it's been losing, challenging other research, including that of the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, that concludes that Earth’s southern continent is losing land ice overall.
In a paper published in the Journal of Glaciology on Friday, researchers from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, the University of Maryland in College Park, and the engineering firm Sigma Space Corporation offer a new analysis of satellite data that show a net gain of 112 billion tons of ice a year from 1992 to 2001 in the Antarctic ice sheet.
This struck me as funny: “I don’t think there will be enough snowfall increase to offset these losses,”
Yeah, it's a mystery how an average increase of 100 billion tons of ice a year is a loss.

Google Translate error sees Spanish town advertise clitoris festival
The translated announcement read: “The clitoris is one of the typical products of Galician cuisine. Since 1981 ... the festival has made the clitoris one of the star products of its local gastronomy.”
García said the translation error was likely on the town’s official website for months before it was noticed late last week.

I'm surprised this story hasn't triggered another climate change flamewar on here yet

Man, I hate it when I accidentally get on the Zombie Abe Lincoln Lookalike Festival tour bus!

It's already part of the current flamewar.

Ah. One of my muted ones then

BTW, I just realized, at some point Zach went back and added the red button joke to all the old comics too.
Yay, an excuse to revisit the old classics.
-
that red button is making me lose much more time than i would like to admit =/
-
If you view through RSS, the red button thing just shows up below the comic.

I've never even noticed there's a button with extra stuff there. TIL.
