   Actually, that pair of male penguins described as “gay” by Prick News isn’t a homosexual pair. They are co-parenting the egg, not mating with each other.

   Male Emperor penguins famously take on sole parenting duties for months — brooding the eggs through the dark months of the Antarctic winter, while the females are off hundreds of miles away fattening up a goodly store of food. Then the females toddle back and both sexes participate in rearing the penguin chicks.

   Yes, I’ve been watching a lot of David Attenborough nature videos lately. 🙂

     Why? Why? Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why?

     Delaying is one thing, but could any of these people at least give us at least one of the real reasons why they’re doing this?

     The building is burning down. The Trumpaloes are throwing on more lighted tiki torches. And the guys in the cafe will call the Fire Department whenever. Without even an explanation of what they’re thinking. This Is Not Okay.

     If, like good politicians, for them it all revolves around getting it closer to the election, what makes them so sure there’ll be a building standing at all in six months time?
