    It's been two years since I worked there and every single piece of news coming out of that ridiculous unaffordable building since then has been depressing.

    Well, except for Pinch and Janet's 7-digit bonuses that exceed what is allowed by the company charter! Whee! #newyorktimes

    Fuck them. That is even worse than shifting the jobs to underpaid interns, who at least had, you know, a step on the ladder, which is what newspapers did in the 80s, when they responded to declining circulation not by becoming better but by being more greedy and stupid, and the internet hadn't even been invented yet. #newyorktimes

    I'm sorry that looks less like a protest and more like a line at the godforsaken Starbucks.

    And knowing Fox they'll say, "Tens of two showed up! See, that means something!"

    Yes, seven people now need bus fare back to their homes in "Twister" country. #protests

    Methinks it would take 3/5 more people to get Fox News to cover a more heavily-pigmented protest.

    What exactly is "long legged mack daddy" supposed to mean? Sometimes extreme racism just goes to a place I can't even figure out--like that sound that makes dogs bark that humans can't hear.

    I went to see the Lippizzan Stallions last summer, and got crap on my facebook page from someone who decried the "cruelty" of their restricted lives. Someone whose cats have never been outside. #peta

    In reply to PETA Protects Cat to Death
    If Peta really is protecting cats to death, which is a sort of misleading header, then that would reveal their secret ultimate agenda finally to stop all exploitation of so called companion animals by making it practically impossible to take care of them in a natural way. this woman was likely driven bats by the cat's behavioral problems indoors, probably the main reason cats or dogs are given up for death by impoundment in kill shelters or to be killed by helpful vets. most people don't really strike me as particularly worthy to be responsible for the lives of animals. they should get stuffed toys or robot animals instead. #peta

    @Lydia Jenkins Netzer: There is an ethical and philosophical argument that goes into some detail about the slavery of 'pets,' but it is almost as extreme as the formerly unpopular opinion that women should have equality under laws...The world may become more radical about animal liberation as time goes by, but I think it could be a very lonely and bereft place. #peta

    In reply to PETA Protects Cat to Death
    How about this: have your lawyer send a threatening letter pointing out that there is no law against letting a cat outside and that if the cat was taken, it would be theft. You could even seek a TRO against them. Then, microchip the cat. Any shelter that gets a pet checks for a microchip. Killing your cat is just the worst possible solution. #peta

    In reply to PETA Protects Cat to Death
    Speaking of lawyers: On a later occasion my dog got out of our fenced yard, and the interns took my dog out of my front yard and called animal control to pick him up. He spent the February night outside at the shelter while we were frantically looking for him. I blogged about it, and received threatening calls and letters from the PETA attorney. So, no, a stern letter from an attorney would do nothing to deter these people. Like I said when the reporter interviewed me, I feel for them in a way -- they're young, deeply emotional, and really believe in what they're doing. It's just not easy to own pets in the house next door to them. #peta

    @Lydia Jenkins Netzer: Sounds like maybe they're right to want to take your pets away from you since you seem to have utterly no control over them and are willing to murder them instead of either get them an owner somewhere safer or try to give them only supervised outside time. Just sayin'. #peta
