red in tooth and claw

department of glad I survived that one: there was tornado activity nearby today, but nothing too bad came my way, just lots and lots of wind and rain and my cats being anxious and hyper all afternoon. I heard the figure of tornadoes in the midwest this afternoon reported at 59, which is fairly terrifying. lots of people in Illinois and Indiana have a long hard week ahead.

department of infinite hell: so here I am watching Melissa Harris-Perry online, as one does, and I get an ad from msnbc.com using nuTrek to shill for GE. WHAT THE INFINITE HELL. STOP MAKING SULU SELL YOUR SHIT.
