Awaiting the Skeptics Circle

I was rechecking my tax returns last night in preparation for mailing them out on Friday. (I believe in doing my return the old-fashioned way when I owe money and sending in a paper check by mail on the last possible day.) So I didn't have time to write anything last night to post on the blog this morning. Consequently, today's blogging will be light, with no further comments on Vox Day's reactionary advocacy of denying women the right to vote (at least not now). But do look forward to later today, when the Socratic Gadfly will post his turn at hosting the Skeptics' Circle (at which point I'll post a plug).

In the meantime...

Even though I'm not a big fan of cats, I do like kittens; so even I couldn't resist this.

Even though I tend to find militant radical animal rights activists laughable, I find this tasteless in the extreme, even if (as I suspect) it is meant as a hoax to tweak them. It doesn't help that it sounds like a scam. If it were funny, that would be one thing, but even my sometimes sick sense of humor doesn't allow me to laugh at this.
