I try to be as sex positive as the next extremely uptight dude but nothing you do with excreta in the throes of passion ever needs to be memorialized in print. Just let it be your own filthy shared memory and look back fondly on it with self loathing and shame.

Okay Skyline. I'm thinking of doing a double feature of The Room and The Disaster Artist. Which order should I watch them in or is it a bad idea to double them up?

Canada's most endangered animal, with whom I am privileged to share an island, is slowly being brought back from the brink of extinction. Their numbers have been brought up nearly 20 fold in 22 years. Yay, marmots!

You now need a Real ID to board a plane. But fortunately for House Republicans, you still don’t need one to transport a minor across state lines.

I keep getting this bizarre scam call I can't figure out. It's a recorded voice that says "I have received your resume. Please contact me via WhatsApp."
That's it. I can't see what the angle is. No WhatsApp contact info if that's how WhatsApp works, no anything else.
