The bootilicous James Wilson (aka Jambonbon) has made this wonderful animated GIF of Astro Cat…. So awesome to see Astro Cat blasting off into space. Thanks, James.
Professor Astro Cat’s Frontiers of Space is due out October 2013.
THIS IS THE COOLEST. THOSE ARE ATOMS. PEOPLE CAN NOW MOVE ATOMS AROUND WHEREVER THEY WISH.
“Being a woman is not a means to humiliate and punish anyone”
After a policeman in the Iranian Kurdish town of Marivan paraded an accused criminal in traditional Kurdish women’s clothes in the streets in order to humiliate him, women marched in the city condemning the use of women’s attire as a kind of humiliation.
In support, an internet campaign of Kurdish and other Iranian men has sprung up showing men wearing Kurdish women’s clothes and messages and support. For example, this message says,”wearing Kurdish women’s clothes is not only not an insult, it is instead a great honor for us,” and goes on to describe how women stand side by side with men in every part of society and during wartime.
Support the campaign by liking the page!

This is no ordinary hedgehog. The bestiary (book of beasts) this little guy inhabits describes the imaginative way this hedgehog gathers fruits. He spears grapes with his spikes and rolls through the vine, collecting more and more as he goes. Moral of the story? Care for your spiritual truths, or the devil may carry them off.
