Among Moscow’s large population of homeless canines, a small minority who frequent or inhabit its metro have attracted international attention due to their having learned how to use the trains to commute to and from various locations.
The dogs have learned to cross the street with pedestrians and have been observed obeying traffic lights.
That’s pretty fucking amazing right there. Dogs will be the first to ascend to sentience to join us humans.

I think Eridan is a much more complicated character than people seem to give him credit for. Within the fandom he’s sort of become a caricature of himself which is a real shame.

That’s terrific music and good art. I can’t seem to get the download link to work though? It just makes the music play on a separate tab.

Study: Current Members Of Congress Speak At A 10th Grade Level
A new study by the Sunlight Foundation found that Congress speaks at an average grade level of 10.6, equivalent to a sophomore in high school. That number is down from 2005, when Congress’ 11.5 speaking level was in line with a high school junior.
Lee Drutman and his colleagues at Sunlight took every word members of Congress said on the House and Senate floors between January 1996 and April 2012 and put them through the Flesch-Kincaid test, a tool that equates higher grade levels with longer words and sentences. Drutman found that while Democrats used to speak at a lower level then Republicans, in the last seven years, that trend has flipped.
The bottom ten on the list was dominated by freshman Republicans. Of the ten, all were Republicans and eight were freshman. Rep. Mick Mulvaney, a Republican freshman from South Carolina, found himself at the bottom of all 535 members of congress with a 7.9 grade level.

I don’t know how concerned I should be about this. I just… I am uneasy now.

I really like how the Strider’s fire appears to be exploding rather than just burning.
Because it is the Democratic Party that is fighting to make college more affordable for middle class families.
Because it is the Democratic Party that is fighting to provide Seniors with Medicare prescription drug coverage they deserve.
