There is a woman at this Starbucks with a cat wrapped up in a blanket.
Related: I hope the world ends in 2012 because I am so over everything.
Not even gonna lie, WTF was only my second thought. My first thought was: Aw, jealous! I would so do this if stores (and my cats) let me.
You might be a Crazy Cat Lady if…
Interviewer: Black history month you find…
Morgan Freeman: Ridiculous.
Interviewer: Why?
Morgan Freeman: You’re going to relegate my history to a month?
Interviewer: Oh, come on.
Morgan Freeman: What do you do with yours? Which month is white history month?
Interviewer: (pause) Well, I’m Jewish.
Morgan Freeman: Okay. Which month is jewish history month?
Interviewer: There isn’t one.
Morgan Freeman: Oh, oh. Why not? Do you want one?
Interviewer: No.
Morgan Freeman: Right. I don’t either. I don’t want a black history month. Black history is American history.
Interviewer: How are we going to get rid of racism?
Morgan Freeman: Stop talking about it.
Morgan Freeman FOR GOD.
MORGAN FREEMAN FOR GOD.
Morgan Freeman for everything

I had the privilege of being interviewed by Persephone Magazine earlier this month. I was disgustingly verbose in my answers because the questions were *so* good. It’s less “What’s your favorite name Walter calls Astrid?” and more “How has your work informed your other creative outlets?”. Finally! Thank you, Persephone :)
“Known as the Motorcycle Queen of Miami, Bessie Stringfield started riding when she was 16. She was the first African-American woman to travel cross-country solo, and she did it at age 19 in 1929, riding a 1928 Indian Scout. Bessie traveled through all of the lower 48 states during the ’30s and ’40s at a time when the country was rife with prejudice and hatred. She later rode in Europe, Brazil, and Haiti and during World War II she served as one of the few motorcycle despatch riders for the United States military.”

In case you guys haven’t heard yet, FRINGE has been renewed for a 4th season!
I believe it’s Fox’s first sci-fi show since The X-Files to survive the Friday Night Death Slot. Awesome Show, Great Job!
WOOOOOOOOOOO!
Here is a list of things that women have invented (some that we even still use today):
- “Apgar score” for assesssing the health of infants
- windshield wipers
- a way of processing film
- non-reflecting glass
- fireproof building material
- the world’s first antifungal antibiotic
- dishwasher
- maritime signal flares
- the cpr mannequin
- radium and x-rays
- the leukemia-fighting drug 6-mercaptopurine
- drugs that facilitated kidney transplants and other drugs for the treatment of cancer and leukemia
- pertroleum refining technology
- naturally coloured cotton
- white-out
- x-rays to find the structural layouts of atoms and to discover the overall molecular shape of over 100 molecules including: penicillin, vitamin B-12, vitamin D and insulin
- computerized telephone switching system
- a material five times stronger than steel called Kevlar.
And even way more than that. Medical advances, scientific advances, amazing engineers, designers, doctors, inventors, film-makers, writers, artists, huminitarians, politicians, soldiers, and more, can be women. There is nothing a woman is not capable of doing just because she is a woman.
Just wanted to reblog this list too. Also, the hydrometer. And the home diabetes test.
The modern bra, the disposable diaper, the chocolate chip cookie… the list goes on!

Mystery cat takes regular bus to the shops
Bus drivers have nicknamed a white cat Macavity after it has started using the No 331 several mornings a week.
The feline, which has a purple collar, gets onto the busy Walsall to Wolverhampton bus at the same stop most mornings - he then jumps off at the next stop 400m down the road, near a fish and chip shop.
The cat, nicknamed Macavity, has one blue eye and one green eye
The cat was nicknamed Macavity after the mystery cat in T.S Elliot’s poem. He gets on the bus in front of a row of 1950s semi-detached houses and jumps off at a row of shops down the road which include a fish and chip shop.
Driver Bill Khunkhun, 49, who first saw the cat jumping from the bus in January, said: “It is really odd, the first time I saw the cat jumping off the bus with a group of passengers. I hadn’t seen it get on which was a bit confusing.
“The next day I pulled up on Churchill Road to let a couple of passengers on. As soon as I opened the doors the cat ran towards the bus, jumped on and ran under one of the seats, I don’t think any of the passengers noticed.
“Because I had seen it jump off the day before I carried on driving and sure enough when I stopped just down the road he jumped off - I don’t know why he would catch the bus but he seems to like it. I told some of the other drivers on this route and they have seen him too.”
Since January, when the cat first caught the bus he has done it two or three times a week and always gets on and off at the same stops.
Passenger, Paul Brennan, 19, who catches the 331 to work, said: “I first noticed the cat a few weeks ago. At first I thought it had been accompanied by its owner but after the first stop it became quite clear he was on his own.
“He sat at the front of the bus, waited patiently for the next stop and then got off. It was was quite strange at first but now it just seems normal. I suppose he is the perfect passenger really - he sits quietly, minds his own business and then gets off.”
