When I take my cat Brooks out for walks, people tend to notice and stare - that's totally fine; you don't see a cat on a leash every day, so of course people are curious. I enjoy using it as an opportunity to meet new people and get my socializing in. But I've noticed kind of a weird pattern

What songs would you recommend for introducing someone to The Mountain Goats. He already likes Jack Stauber and Niel Cicierega if that helps establish a baseline of quirkiness

Why is the forecast for the next week all like, high of 84, but it feels like 106? What's making it feel 20 degrees hotter than it actually is? That's not all just humidity, is it? Is it just the collective misery rising off the American populace that's heating the atmosphere?

It's a shame she's my doctor, because I feel like my pcp and I would be good friends, but it feels too weird to invite a woman who's already seen me with my pants off out for coffee

I set my plate of baby carrots on the sofa while I changed the laundry over, thinking the cats wouldn't mess with it, because what does a cat want with carrots? I came back two minutes later and this fat bastard was sitting on it

I'm trying to find something and Google is useless - there was this child's homework they found, NOT Onfim from Novogrod, this was an English child I'm pretty sure was named Richard? I don't remember how old it was, just that he was practicing writing and he doodled his dog all over it. Any ideas??

A trope that annoys the absolute shit out of me is this idea that if someone has their tongue removed, they somehow can't make noise anymore? This usually comes up as like, an urban legend or campfire story. "They cut out his tongue so he couldn't scream!" What? Why wouldn't he be able to scream??
