Saturday: 1000 posts

At least according to the blogger post count.  I guess that's a good thing about posting everyday?  I thought about doing a "best of" post, but decided instead to just link to some of my favorite labels.

Here's a bunch of pictures:

"Mushroom!"

"Puppies!"

Iä! Iä! Cthulhu Fhtagn!

WTF, snake?

Yeah, you tell it, Velma.

Puppy vs. uneven ground.

Now I want mac and cheese.

Cats. Weak vs. gravity.

Pikachu used Quick Attack!

• Ross Douthat: still an idiot.  Let's just do a quick list of how he's wrong: 1) government spending largely increased after 2009 due to safety net spending.  The alternative is to let people starve. 2) In what Bizarro world would Romney allow taxes to rise?  How would a Republican congress let him do that? 3) ACA should decrease health care spending.  Try to keep up with reality, Ross. 4) Larger government probably doesn't decrease private sector job growth.  Crowding out isn't real, either, especially with such a high unemployment rate. 5) Because we don't have the same demographics as the 1960s, we should abandon SS/Medicare/etc.? This isn't a Ponzi scheme, at least as long as things are properly funded (i.e., you don't cut taxes to zero). 6) Weaker economies of Europe are trapped by being tied to the Euro, denying them the ability to properly use debt. 7) Don't talk about contraception, Ross. You're never going to not look like a moron. 8) Because the Republicans in Congress won't be sane, we shouldn't vote for Obama?  You're a fucking moron, Ross Douthat.
• I read the linked article, and couldn't figure out WTF the author was talking about.  At what point did people stop trusting statistics?  It's fucking math.  You math it.  It maths data.  Math math math math.
• I was going to post this with yesterday's post, but forgot.  "I glubbed up!"
