Somehow this makes me feel so much better.

Surveillance cameras observe a fox exploring the Tudor and Georgian rooms of the National Portrait Gallery at night.
- Black People: We finally have a black president! This is great for many reasons. Our kids can look up to Obama, and we have a small claim to representation now. Let's keep this progress moving forward. For the first time ever, our issues won't be ignored by our nation's leader!
- Latino People: Wow! Finally, a president who doesn't want to deport us at the mere mention of our existence. And the DREAM Act? That's awesome. We're glad someone's starting to listen to our needs.
- LGBTQ People: Thanks for taking a stand for marriage equality this week, Obama. It means a lot to us to know that our leader doesn't think we're perverts and deviants, and recognizes that we're humans. Oh, and all those other things you did like repeal DADT and push for new laws to protect us from discrimination and harassment. We appreciate that.
- Women: It's so refreshing to have a president that doesn't want to regulate our bodies or our lives. It's important for us to have someone in office that supports our choices, and supports our various needs as working women, mothers, scholars, and human beings. Thanks for not making our rights 'optional.'
- White, straight men: Yeah, well, all that stuff is great, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE ECONOMY?
Blatant anthropomorphism but I DON’T CARE it makes me laugh.
I mean seriously how often do you see a snail drink water?
Oh my goodness this is actually the cutest thing.
me.
I have a weird love for snails. When I see them in the middle of the sidewalk I always move them out of the way of stomping feet.
Rejected Fox Headlines
A+JESUS WEPT
Obama announces END OF WORLD. Fire and brimstone to arrive shortly, with horsemen.
Out of the night that covers me, In the fell clutch of circumstance Beyond this place of wrath and tears It matters not how strait the gate,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul

Baby otter squeaks when introduced to water! Footage from the feature film Otter 501:
Meet the playful heroine of the feature film Otter 501! She was rescued on the central coast of California after being separated from her mother, and with a little help from the Monterey Bay Aquarium she’ll hopefully become a wild otter again.
