Cat still stuck in neighbor's attic. Fire department was of no help though they did put forth a reasonable effort. See twitter.com/zebratron2084 for further information.

This is an all hands on deck situation. Please boost. If you know ANYONE in New Orleans area who might help, please let us know. If you have ANY practical advice (beyond "get a ladder," see twitter, it's too high & not safe) let us know.

Current Plan A: build a ramp out of lumber. Needs to be >20-30'. Advice VERY welcome.

Looking for linux distro recommendations 

Anyone know of good Linux distros that are beginner-friendly, but aim to expose the user to and teach them about what makes Linux different from Windows, rather than paper over it in an attempt to be "familiar"? I could have sworn there was one with a built-in command line tutorial or something that I heard about a while back, but I forget what it was called.

This wouldn't be for me. It would be for someone who could easily contact me with questions if they need help.

cw that monster, bad wakeups 

I woke up suddenly realizing that for probably five or six years running, before I found out, I was sending a Christmas present off to That Monster and then never receiving anything back except statements of "oh, I got something for you but shipping is delayed, I'll send it off when it gets here."
But I'd forget about it by like mid-January, and then he'd just repeat it again the next year.

So at least the rest of the day can only get better, after that little cry.

Slice of life webcomic that's set on an aerostat on Venus but it's all totally mundane shit and everybody's in the same housing building and getting crushes on each other

"Do you hear that, Highness? Those are the Dubstep Eels!"

Suppose you were a butterfly, and suppose you were Chuang-tsu.... Ah, but I repeat myself.

"I found a prophet on the landing this morning."
"Are you sure?"
"Pretty sure. It scuttled under the baseboard as soon as it saw me."
"What did it look like?"
"Wild-eyed and wild-haired, jittery movements. Like it had seen too much and could no longer find solace in the world as it is."
"Uff. We'll have to get someone to come around and spray."

"Pepperridge Farm Remembers" commercials but the slogan is "Every Bird Remembers" and the whole commercial is just footage of various carnivorous theropods absolutely destroying small mammals, then at the end we zoom in on like a sleeping finch on a twig.

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And emptied the stockings; then turned with a jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
He snorted an entire bottle of peppermint extract and passed out on the floor

If you love someone, set them... no, that's not right.

If you love someone, feed them tacos.

Incense sticks that make you grow scaly tails the longer you burn them.

You're pretty sure you put that one out a while ago, but it looks like your tail is another foot longer now. Oh well, you can go make sure it's out later.
