Link round-up for 20 September 2015

The latest right-wing freak-out is over gay Doritos (found via Mock Paper Scissors).

Fear the wrath of the mortified moggy.  Sometimes even a box is too much.

I'd love to try this on Jehovah's Witnesses and the like (found via Mendip).

Helloooo Mr. President blog is back.  And for those who didn't know, TomCat of Politics Plus blog has been in hospital for several days in critical condition.  Friends are keeping the blog going and posting updates on how he's doing.

Here's a trolling campaign we can all support.

Cats + kittens = cuteness overload.

Ice can be kind of cool.

What if cats really did have nine lives?

Here's the story of the making of The Wicker Man (link from Marc McKenzie).

Britain commemorates the 75th anniversary of its most important victory in modern times.

Syrian migrants are putting new stresses on the European Union and prompting an unusual effort by Denmark to discourage them.

Iran's President sends Rosh Hashanah greetings.

Western Europe's subjugation and abuse of Greece dates back almost two centuries.

Socialism?

Physicist Lawrence Krauss makes the case for militant atheism.

As racism comes out into the open, one of the stupidest novels ever written wins new popularity (see also my review here).

If you doubt how extreme some Christianists are, read this -- even pro-gay opinions are worthy of death (found via Mock Paper Scissors).  Then there's Kim Davis's lawyer.

Anti-abortion hysteria is a trap for Republicans.

How does the "war on police" meme spread?

Fair and Unbalanced has a good overview of the real significance of the Dred Scott case.

Huckabee is shockingly ignorant of Constitutional law.

Take it from a blogger who really knows about guns.

We're up to our eyeballs in early-human transitional forms -- and here's another.

Sue: You're doing fine so far.

Pinku: Thanks for the post. And yes, I'm an optimist by nature. Gloom and doom without focusing on solutions is pointless.
