Hence my 'Who knew?' comment in the original post from February.

Um. Joke.

I'm surprised the article I read about her didn't mention the shoe company she was always buying shares of... you know... Birkin stocks.

A Canadian man claims he was fired from his job at a fuel supplier when he helped rescue a desperate moose calf from a potential black bear attack. Mark Skage, who worked for AFD Petroleum Inc., was driving back from a job site when he saw the abandoned moose wandering on the side of the road in British Columbia, Canada on June 6. As he pulled over and hopped out of his vehicle, the calf attempted to climb into his truck as Skage noticed a bear stalking the “few day old” animal. “There was a black bear 50 yards away from her just waiting,” Skage said in a Facebook post. “I made a decision at the time after she kept (trying) to climb into the work truck that I couldn’t just leave her there. So I stuck her in the passenger side and drove to town to get her some help,” Skage added. Skage’s decision to bring the calf into his truck comes from his background as an outdoorsman and he knew that doing so was against the law. “I just couldn’t do it, in my heart. People can say all they want. I know as outdoorsmen, we talk about predator control. … Black bears are the number one predator for those calves. So I just thought, ‘Well, I can’t take care of the predator, but I guess maybe I can try and help out this little calf,’” Skage told CBC News. “It is against the law to pick up wild animals off the road or from out in nature, anywhere. It is illegal to be in possession of wildlife and transport wildlife,” he told the outlet. With the calf riding shotgun in his truck, Skage called his supervisor and the local Conservation Officer about his predicament before he named the moose Misty and found a rehab center to look after her until she was ready to be released. “A few days later Misty (that’s what I called her) got a ride to a rehab center a little farther south where they will let her grow up a bit before releasing her back into the wild,” his post read. Skage thought everything would be over but his company AFD Petroleum had a problem with his wildlife rescue. “All is well right? NOPE. AFD felt different and figured I was in grievous conflict with their wildlife policies. (they had never taken the time to know my background),” he said. Both the black and grizzly bear, along with wolves, are large predators of moose calves in Interior Alaska and Northern Canada and make up a large portion of calf deaths. “Black bears have been found to be the most important predator of moose calves in some areas of Alaska where grizzly bears are uncommon. In these areas, black bears killed about 40% of all moose calves that were born. Most predation was by adult males,” according to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. “Anyway to wrap up they did decide given all their options that letting me go was the best thing. So the lesson I learned was AFD is ok spilling fuel on the ground but not helping wildlife,” Skage concluded. The AFD condemned Skage’s rescue, saying he should’ve called the conservation officer and allowed trained wildlife officials to handle relocate Misty. “Instead of reporting the situation to a conservation officer and allowing the authorities to handle the rescue and relocation of the moose, the individual made the independent decision to transport an uninjured moose calf, a wild animal, in the front seat of his company vehicle for many hours,” said AFD Petroleum president Dale Reimer according to CBC. “This not only put the employee and other road users at risk but also potentially caused distress and harm to the moose.”

I was going to post that yesterday, but I was distracted by my vomiting.

A golden retriever stole the hearts of bystanders by doing nothing at all. TikTok user patric.ryan22 shared a video of an adorable pup lying on its back in the parking lot of Harpoon Brewery in Vermont. Not knowing what to do with their protesting pup, the pet parent in the clip patiently waits out the canine's antics. "This pup didn't want his day at the brewery to end," the TikTok user captioned the moment. In the clip, the golden retriever's owner holds on to the dog's leash while they wait for the dog to get up, eventually pulling out a phone to scroll through while the pet's tantrum ticks on. Bystanders filming the video narrate the amusing scene. "He's like, 'Well guys, I guess we're gonna stay here,'" a person says over the video. Another voice adds the dog's POV, "He does not wanna leave." In the video, after more time passes, the owner puts away their phone and walks around before looking down at the dog — who hasn't moved an inch and still refuses to leave the brewery. "He doesn't know what to do," one of the bystanders narrates as the dog's owner tugs on the golden retriever's harness to get them up and moving. "He's like, 'C,mon.' 'Alright. Alright,'" the voice continues as the owner finally gets the dog to roll over, get back on its paws, and pull its body up from the ground. However, this initial jolt of energy isn't enough to get the pet moving. In the clip, the dog sits upright on its paws but still refuses to move from its place in the parking lot despite the owner's efforts. "He's like, 'I don't think so bud, My day's not over yet,'" one of the narrators says as the dog once again plops down on the ground. "And he's gonna go back on his back," the other bystander adds. The dog's owner continues to try to get the golden retriever moving before giving up and picking up the canine. The pet parent carries the dog towards the cars in the parking lot as onlookers laugh in delight. stubborn dog.mp4

Steph Curry continues to show that just about any shot from long distance is makeable -- no matter the sport. Curry, who has made more than his share of highlight-reel shots during his NBA career, added to his legacy on the golf course Saturday with a hole-in-one at the American Century Championship celebrity tournament in Stateline, Nevada. Curry, who led the event after the first round, sank his tee shot on the par-3, 152-yard seventh hole at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course -- the first ever on the hole during the American Century Championship.

Yeah, but I don't think the estates of men who died 30+ years ago will be too litigious.

Yes. Andy Cohen is great friends with him.

Cases like this always make one ponder things like why would anyone want to kill cereal?

I understand actors' concerns about AI, and I think they are quite valid. However, I can't help but think of the possible gay porn benefits. As someone who was a fan of quite a few stars from the 1980s, I've become much more cognizant than I was back then about how many of them often did scenes with guys that weren't comparatively as hot. Just imagine if the technology became simple and cheap enough that anybody could pair up any 2 (or 10) guys they'd want to see together, even if they never worked together. (and wouldn't THAT be an interesting topic?)

A lonely and jobless Japanese woman reportedly bombarded first responders with 2,761 fake calls for help — just to get some attention. Hiroko Hatagami, 51, of Matsudo, was arrested Thursday on suspicion of obstructing operations of the local fire department, The Mainichi reported. The needy nuisance told investigators she kept ringing up emergency services because “I was lonely and wanted someone to listen to me and give me attention,” according to the outlet. The myriad calls to the Matsudo Fire Department between Aug.15, 2020, and May 25 reportedly included bogus declarations that “I have a stomachache,” “I took a large dose of medicine” and “My legs hurt.” When ambulances arrived, the serial complainer turned them away with responses like, “I don’t want to take an ambulance” and “I didn’t make the call,” The Mainichi said. Police and fire officials warned Hatagami on a number of occasions to stop calling and wasting their resources, but she kept at it until a formal report was filed — and she was arrested, the outlet reported.

Man behind viral blue-black dress illusion charged with trying to kill wife The Scottish man who rose to fame in 2015 over his mother-in-law’s viral black-and-blue or gold-and-white dress that divided the internet is now accused of trying to murder his wife. Keir Johnston, 38, of the Isle of Colonsay, appeared at the High Court in Glasgow on Monday after being charged with the attempted murder of his wife, Grace Johnston. He had allegedly committed an 11-year campaign of domestic violence acts and coercive control against Grace, which allegedly led to him trying to kill her last March by pinning her to the ground and compressing her neck. Keir denied all allegations against him, including that he repeatedly assaulted his wife at their home before brandishing a knife and attempting to strangle her. Other allegations stemming from incidents between April 2019 and March 2022 include allegedly pushing Grace against a wall, shouting at her and throttling her. The couple became viral sensations in 2015 after their friend and wedding guest, Caitlin McNeill, posted a picture to Tumblr of a dress Grace’s mother, Cecilia Bleasdale, wore to their wedding. People within the Johnstons’ close circle declared that the dress appeared to be blue and black in the photo while others were firm it was white and gold. The debate also intrigued the internet, and the garment became simply known as “the dress” or “the dress that broke the internet.” Celebrities including Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry and Chrissy Teigen all weighed into the online conversation on how their brains processed the colors. It was so controversial that Keir, Grace and McNeill, even appeared on the “Ellen DeGeneres Show” where Bleasdale came out wearing the dress that was indeed black and blue. DeGeneres presented the couple with a $10,000 check as well as a trip to the Caribbean. The attempted murder case will get a preliminary hearing before a trial in 2024. For the record... white and gold

Actor Michael Rapaport declares Sal, Kris & Charlie’s in Astoria the best deli in the city When Rapaport visited his favorite sandwich spot this past week, he posted to Tik Tok, captioning his video, “Sal & Kris is the BEST OF THE BEST in NYC. Period.” “Alright, I’m gonna make this short and quick. Listen, I don’t do sandwich reviews, because there’s only one place in New York City. You want a true-blue New York hero? Sal & Kris’s Astoria, Queens,” Rapaport raved. “If you’ve never had a sandwich from Sal & Kris in Astoria, Queens, you’ve never really had a New York sandwich, trust me,” Rapaport said. “Forget all the rest, classic New York hero– Sal & Kris, Astoria, Queens. This place ain’t for vegetarians, alright, it’s the real deal, New York.” Located at 33-12 23rd Ave. Sal, Kris & Charlie’s Deli is well-known for its massive, 14-inch-long heroes. (that's a lot of meat, though if those are 'gay porn' inches, it's probably more like 9 1/2 - 10) The spot was previously reviewed by the New York Times in 2018, which highlighted the “supersized sandwiches” beloved by many.
