Did you know there’s one NYC dog named Lunch, none named Dinner, and 27 named Snack? There are seven dogs named Breakfast, but only one is a hot pink bitch.

Bad Dog is a love letter to Los Angeles. While LA is pretty segregated based on race and socio-economics, each neighborhood is within driving distance of each other, so eventually the subcultures of each marry one another in some beautiful mess. Zoë, the brains behind Bad Dog, is a pretty good anthropomorphic model of this subculture stew, I think, and she isn’t afraid of sentiment or being a fan, which is what makes Bad Dog so special. BAD DOG FOREVER!!!

Me and Danny and my twin sister Sonia had a text thread called Send Poods that was strictly dedicated to sneaky pictures of poodles with good haircuts: a shaved snoot, pom-pom or bell bottom ankles, and a wasp waist. The best poodles in the world are in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, still, by the way. None of us wanted/want to own a poodle, to be clear (way too much work, with our high standards) or a dog at all, but they have come to represent perfection for us, the tensions between wild curls and refined silhouettes, an archaic upper class aspiration and in-the-moment, fun-loving behavior. Danny called me his poodle, and sometimes when I see one now I cry a little to myself.

A nice midday break even when (arguably more so) you’re not actively pet finding. There are just so many incredible little guys with incredible names, stop and take a peek :)

Kill every “poster” impulse and put info online for no recognition, no reward, no glory. Hunt for kooky stories in news archives and put them on Wikipedia! Replace dead sources with archived links, expand two-sentence stubs about obscure rivers in the middle of nowhere, fix typos!

Some documentaries are so good that they make you want to use all 246 synonyms for “wow” (according to this extensive Wiktionary list). This is one of them. In an hour and thirty-seven minutes (perfect runtime), a 1997 documentary about a bizarre Texas endurance feat will make you laugh, cry, take a shot, and have many epiphanies!

Reaction gifs from GIPHY may be stale but you know what’s not? The best comic ever. Every day I thank God that Michael Yingling made this indexable archive. Search for a word, like “microwave” or “raccoon” or whatever, and find a C+H for every moment under the sun. If you want to search for other comics, use the site Oh No Robot.
