The number of tumblr cats we were able to name offhand.
WE WERE ABLE TO NAME 21 CATS THAT WE HAVEN’T EVEN MET.
Serious business.
This is absolutely fantastic.

Exclamation Marks! (Oh My.) →

joecoscarelli:
It’s pretty sad when Chuck Klosterman is the one pointing out one of our most overused crutches in blogdom. But he’s right, the sarcastic “!” is too often a joke replacement. Remember when Jess and Jesse were running Gawker and the commenters thought they needed more “!”? Turns out they didn’t. When I copy-edit a certain other commercial blog, I sometimes scrape out...

“Reagan, Greenspan, Wanniski, and Laffer took the federal budget deficit from under a trillion dollars in 1980 to almost three trillion by 1988, and back then a dollar could buy far more than it buys today. They and George HW Bush ran up more debt in eight years than every president in history, from George Washington to Jimmy Carter, combined. Surely this would both starve the beast and...

Obama is clearly the only adult in that room.

From an intelligent spirit intrepid enough to brave the spammy wilds of my Facebook profile:
Obama : Progress :: Lost : Progress on Lost
I feel he can be smarter by just forcing it through. Odd how we can be coerced into war, but man, getting a cure for the common cold for the uninsured—a growing number of us—is like trying to climb out of quicksand. And let’s...
Dear Andrew Sullivan, We'll Spell it Out for You:...
newsweek:
We’ve largely stayed out of this whole “Newsweek and terrorism” thing, and would have continued to do so, except Andrew Sullivan doesn’t allow comments on his blog. So we want to make one thing clear, since there seems to be some confusion: Kathy Jones, our photo editor AS refers to here, was kidding. Really. Here’s Sullivan:
Yesterday, I noted Glenn Greenwald’s righteous gasp at...

Do I remember you?
Did we even talk when we were in school together?
Have I talked to you in at least a year?
Are we even IRL friends anymore?
If any of that is yes, then I’m probably saying “happy birthday.”
Now, should I just say “happy birthday”? Or leave a funny memory? Or an inside…

Whatever!
Love, TumblrBot
Looks like TumblrBot needs a little coffee this morning. But this is a good opportunity for me to welcome all of my new followers! At this point, I have enough to host a small conference, or throw a fire code-breaking party. Thanks!

How the hell am I the same age as Chelsea Handler?
hman:
Oh, happy birthday Chelsea Handler.
Watch it, buster, I’m 3 years your senior, and my grey hairs are extremely sexy according to my boyfriend who tries to pull them out while I’m not looking so that more will grow back in their place.
But yes, happy birthday Chelsea! We are soul sisters, born a mere 2 days apart. No surprise to me, I’ve always been fond of you. Pisces...

Citibank Blocks Bank Account of "Objectionable"... →
choire:
Oh neat. Citibank blocked a gay blog’s business account because someone at the bank didn’t like THE CONTENT ON THEIR BLOG. Yes, that is the reason they gave. Not only is their stock in the GARBAGE, they are other kinds of morons as well.
The best part is how the blog threatens to move their account if they don’t get a good resolution tomorrow. UM. HELLO. MOVE YOUR BANK ACCOUNT. NOW....

“Oral chemotherapy is the result of many years of research hoping to improve the quality of life for cancer patients. Although oral chemotherapy may be the best treatment regimen for some cancer patients, they choose the less effective intravenous chemotherapy to avoid financial hardship.

I dreamt about Tumblr last night.
I also texted my best friend, after going to bed, and used the word “sniggligoo.”
That’s it, no more Ambien for me.

I am a terrible boyfriend.
The last thing I was thinking about last night when I used my mailbox key was my birthday. The thin nondescript envelope looked like some sort of collection notice, which is not an uncommon sight in a household with as many minor medical bills as ours. If by “minor”, you understand me to mean the constant pile-up of $50 co-pays and cable TV bills from the hospital and prescription...

So I’m still on the News Directory, with the thoughtful robot gift from Topher himself (awesomely absurd), and I have to say it makes me feel a little crazy to be in the company of Tumblrs like Newsweek, In Other News, and The Daily What - not to mention the Today Show(?!?).
