Catlateral Damage is a first person mischievous cat simulator, where your objective is to knock as many of your loving owners belongings onto the floor within a 2 minute time limit.

It’s a fun little game, and there’s a lot of satisfaction to be had from knocking things over and making a mess (That’s probably why cats do it in the first place).  The dev plans to add more levels (rooms) to destroy, but at the Alpha gives you free reign to destroy your owners bedroom for 2 mins.  On your marks… get set… destroy!!

Play the Alpha, Free

Video games in 2014 are off to a fucking phenomenal start

is this what catgirls online is like?

Yes

Surya Bonaly

 is famous for her backflip landed on only one blade; she is considered the only skater in the world capable of this move

Why am I just now hearing about her??????

Because you’re young. She retired from amateur competition after the ‘98 Nagano Olympics and never medalled at the Olympics in her career, but she did win gold at Europeans a bunch of times and silvered at Worlds a few times.

The main thing to understand about Surya Bonaly’s career as a skater is that figure skating is racist as fuck and she never fit the image of a skater, to judges or to commentators. Race and colorism were a huge fucking factor in how she was evaluated and discussed—she’s French, born in Nice, but her (white) adoptive parents lied and said she was born off Madagascar and abandoned by her birth parents to make her seem more ~exotic~, to give you an idea.

Commentators were especially horrid to her and loved to praise her for her “athletic” style but would always criticize her for not being ~artistic~ enough and she always got dinged on artistic presentation. She would always do well in the short program on technical marks and then the long program would be her achilles heel because of how heavily artistic presentation was weighted. (For the younger among you, this is pre-SLC so this is when the old judging system was still being used.) 

More proof of how fucked skating is: Surya is also the only woman to my knowledge to ever land a quad toe loop in competition or even attempt one and to this day they don’t want to credit her with actually landing it, because all four rotations were not completed in air. Granted, there is a fair case to be made that it was only a triple, but don’t doubt that race played a role in that. They hated on this woman from the minute she got on the ice.

And yes, she landed that famous backflip on one blade at the 98 Olympics in her long program as one last FU to the system that had been fucking her for her whole career. Which is the real reason you should know who she is, tbh. Never was there a badder bitch on ice.

I LOVE Surya Bonaly, and I remember watching her backflip in the long program on TV in Nagano! <3  Here’s where she did the flip in that routine.

i dont care what anyone else thinks that fedora’d meme pony in yesterday’s ep is officially called Broni Friendzoni in my head forever now sry

image

the most hilarious thing is the name will never get popular or be used on fan wikis or anything because the bronies who obsessively moderate and edit the wikis would be too offended by it lmfao. They’ll slip sexist and rapey jokes into the comments for images but they won’t fuckin stand for you judging them by their precious hats

I don’t even watch My Little Pony, but everything about this up to and including “Broni Friendzoni” is a treasure.

It also sounds a lot like a cheap greasy pizza that you never ordered that keeps telling you how delicious and nutritious it is and how you should totally have it for dinner because it delivered itself, and then calls you a bitch when you have a steak instead.

There are five main characters on Bob’s Burgers. 

Three of those five characters are girls/women. 

Only one of those characters is actually played by a woman. 

Does this make anyone else mad or…?

It’s ver fucked up. In a lots of ways because they are all three very well written women, especially compared to the other animated shows around it. To be fair, Bob’s Burgers does have FAR more women on its writing staff than any of the Seth shows and The Simpsons, which is the worst of the lot, but its still well under half of the writing staff. I wonder if part of why they get written so well is that they are writing for male performers.

Also, while its true that cross gender casting isn’t unusual for child characters (the Silverman sisters have a recurring part as twin boys on the show, for instance), casting adult men as adult women is almost always played for gags and I can’t readily think of any instance of the reverse happening. I know the show runners have leaned on that as an excuse, but doing it twice really exposes that as just an excuse. It is clear women were never even considered for those two parts, and that’s definitely problematic.

I think this pretty much sums up my issues with Bob’s Burgers??

This show is full of all sorts of things I should like, namely a bunch of Home Movies alumni, but I just couldn’t get into it after watching the first few episodes.  And the fact that they apparently couldn’t be bothered to cast women to voice these characters… really bothers me whenever I dwell on it too long.

Just, like… c’mon Loren Bouchard.  I can probably name at least five women from your Home Movies stable off the top of my head, couldn’t you have picked up the phone and called some of them?
