There is nothing wrong with your monitor. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are now controlling the stream. We control the horizontal and the vertical. We can deluge you with a thousand Twitch channels, or expand one single image to crystal 360p clarity and beyond. We can shape your vision to anything our imagination can conceive, which will most likely be old episodes of Futurama.

For the next hour we will control all that you see and hear. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the deepest inner mind to…something that has no inner restrictions? Maybe something outer, I dunno hey.

In Other News: F1 2016 takes pole position, Little Nightmares is adorably terrifying and I remember that Fez.

        one of my cats, years ago, used to catch birds from the roof. She would creep, creep, creep up and when close enough would launch. Sometimes, bird would spot her as she got close, so she jumped, catching the bird in mid-air, off the roof. Then, you hear a strangled “Miaraaaua” as she lands on the ground, but let go of the bird is not a thought. She killed a few times a week, this cat. Birds, field mice mostly. Once a small monkey from the golf course. Cats genes were wild, her mother was a factory mascot cat. She was born in a house and then given to us.

        We bought a collar with a bell and for a short while she stopped. Then it started again. She figured out that if she leopard crawled low enough to the ground, bell did not ring.

            she was an exceptional cat, to be honest. She bonded very, very strongly with me, as part of her pack.

    By the way, GAWKER IS FINALLY DEAD!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH GAWKER IS DEAD! HAHAHHAHAHA!

    Today is a great day! Hopefully, Kotaku will undergo a restructuring of epic proportions and all the dead wood (like Stephen Totilo and Jason Schreierer) can find meaningful employment in Walmart.
