The Defamation of Fur: On Hating Pet Culture
by Charlie Bass
I have two cats, one old and one a bit too young, at least right now (stop biting my toes, you little shit). I take pictures of them, sometimes movies, and their perfectly flat faces adorn my apartment wall, my computer at home and work, my phone. I have had dogs in the [...]

by Mark Lindberg
god this couch is comfortable
nap-inducing and i hate to nap
as much as i hate to need to nap.
