Americans -- and probably most citizens of the world in general -- are pretty anxious about what’s going to happen on November 8, 2016. So how do we deal with all the unsettling uncertainty over the next few months? Here are a few options:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A. Keep your mind off of all the drama by going outside, enjoying a hobby (maybe take up crocheting?), enjoying a nice chilled drink, hanging out with friends, or watching all seven seasons of \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/tag/gilmore-girls/\">\u003cem>Gilmore Girls\u003c/em>\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>B. Rant on Facebook and engage in fights with all the people you went to high school with. (This approach is a favorite of many, as your FB news feed can surely attest.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>C. Find potential answers by watching weird, super long YouTube videos of astrologers talking about how the planets and stars will affect our country’s future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because I don't feel like learning how to crochet and unfriended all the randos from high school eons ago, I've chosen option C. I just finished watching over an hour of these astrology videos and I’m here to share what YouTube astrologers are saying about Bernie, Hillary and Donald.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let’s start with a woman who calls herself The Uranian Astrologer. She's a nice white lady who \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOCnke0nZfg\">intros some of her videos with explicit Snoop Dogg songs\u003c/a>. The Uranian Astrologer contains multitudes, just like the rest of us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/846-HsS_FGM\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to her two-part series on our country's overall planetary vibe, the only times we’ve had these exact planetary transits have been during the American Revolution and leading up to the the Civil War.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in the American Revolution days, Pluto was all up in Capricorn. Similarly, Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008 (hey, Barack and Sasha and co!) and will reside there until 2025. You might be wondering: \u003cem>Uhhhh, what does any of that mean?\u003c/em> I'll tell you!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pluto is the planet of death and rebirth and will allegedly compel us to come to terms with ugly parts of our society by shoving these toxic elements into the light so that something new can emerge. In both American Revolution times and today, there is a frustration with the status quo and abuses of power. Through confronting these issues, the country’s soul has a chance to become free and transform. Cool! Thanks, Pluto! You're still a planet in my heart!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pluto isn’t the only planet mixing things up. Neptune is currently in the beginning of a new cycle, which hasn’t been renewed since the years leading up to the Civil War. This is a time of destroying restrictive rules and boundaries to enable a downtrodden group to rise up. Again, very cool! Way to go, Neptune!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now that we have a general lay of the land…or universe or whatever, let’s continue with a different astrologer by the name of Robert Phoenix. He stands in front of a really calming twinkle star background and has a really bold goatee. His expertise is digging into the individual star charts and he applied his method to the three most popular candidates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iuo0zzq73WQ\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let's start with Bernie. According to Phoenix:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Bernie will never be more popular than he is now. His chart is \"electric right now!\"\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Bernie is a Virgo, a sign that is known for intelligence, reliability, and modesty. But the two Virgo presidents we've had have been failures, in Phoenix's view. In case you're curious, those two are Taft, who allegedly got stuck in a bath tub, and Lyndon B. Johnson, who had to answer for the debacle in Vietnam.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Saturn is conjunct (I don't know what that means either, so don't feel bad) with Uranus in Gemini, which might explain Bernie's Millennial allure. You see, Saturn is father time (a.k.a. old) and the conjunct business stands in for youth culture. Ergo, Bernie represents the merging of the old and the new!\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Bernie's Mars is in Aries. Mars in Aries equals red. Red equals communism. Noted communist Gorbachev also has his Mars in Aries. Coincidence? Maybe? Who knows!\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Bernie's rising sign is Scorpio. According to Phoenix, one should never underestimate a Scorpio rising. They're in it 'til the end, which explains why he refused to leave the race for so long. On the flip side, a Scorpio rising has never managed to become president.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Now let's see what's going on in Hillary's chart:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Hillary is also a Scorpio rising. This explains why she too was a staunch opponent during the 2008 election, as well as the current one.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>One of Hillary's biggest thorns in her side during this campaign shows up in her chart. You see, her Uranus is squaring her moon. Uranus rules technology, the moon rules the home, the square represents conflict between the two . Hello, private mail server drama!\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Hillary's Pluto is in Capricorn within her second house, which represents material values. Phoenix takes this to mean that she will eventually be beholden to the plutocracy that's been giving her money.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>A common theme of Hillary's chart is surface and projection. Her Jupiter being in Sagittarius and her Pluto, Mars and Saturn all hanging out in her ninth house join to create a situation where the real Hillary is hidden from the general public.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Next up: Donald Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Trump is a Leo rising, which, according to Phoenix, has led him to believe he is here on Earth to play the role of a king. A challenge for people with this aspect is developing a healthy ego and learning to come from the heart.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Similarly, Trump's Mars is in Leo in his twelfth house, which indicates a secret desire to be a sun god. Phoenix believes Trump's penthouse in Trump Tower, which is largely encased in gold, could be interpreted as a shrine to Apollo.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>There is \"a conspiracy of Gemini\" at the top of his natal chart. Gemini represents duality. When channeled in a positive way, this energy can manifest as someone being charming, flexible and quick-witted. But if channeled in a negative way, there's a risk of duplicity, inconsistency and untrustworthiness.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Phoenix senses some possible trouble on the horizon for Trump. Retrograde Mars is square in his twelfth house, which represents hidden enemies. Phoenix advises that Trump watch his back.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>And finally let’s figure out who is astrologically favored to win the election, based on the findings of Barbara Goldsmith, a nice white lady who unfortunately does not play Snoop tracks in her videos. She has a cool dry-erase board and colored markers though!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKRpVL9ND1U\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goldsmith doesn't believe that analyzing aspects on November 8, 2016, in general, will precisely determine anything. “So I'm going to take a different tack here entirely, stepping out on a bit of a limb here, but why not? Uranus is in Aries!” Rock on, sister! Instead, she analyzed what will be happening planetarily right when the polls close, in connection with Hillary and Trump. Here's what she found:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hillary Clinton's three main features of her chart -- Scorpio sun, Scorpio rising, Pisces moon -- are all feminine water signs. Trump's three main chart features -- Gemini sun, Sagittarius moon, Leo rising -- are all masculine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So are the vibrational elements at 8pm on November 8, 2016 mostly feminine or masculine? At that point in time, the sun will be in Scorpio, the moon will be in Pisces and Cancer will be on the rise. All three aspects are feminine water signs, just like the signs that dominate Hillary's chart. Mars, the most masculine force in the universe, will be in Capricorn at that time, which is not a very macho place to be, and isn't connected to anything overtly masculine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Translation: Donald might be using a wad of Benjamins to dry his tears very soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So there you have it! The future of America, through the eyes of YouTube astrologers! We can't be certain that any of this means anything, but one thing is for sure: thinking about planets and the zodiac beats bickering about politics on Facebook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This piece was inspired by an episode of \u003ca href=\"https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-cooler/id1041117499?mt=2\">The Cooler\u003c/a>.

Uranus is in Aries!” Rock on, sister! Instead, she analyzed what will be happening planetarily right when the polls close, in connection with Hillary and Trump. Here's what she found:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hillary Clinton's three main features of her chart -- Scorpio sun, Scorpio rising, Pisces moon -- are all feminine water signs. Trump's three main chart features -- Gemini sun, Sagittarius moon, Leo rising -- are all masculine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So are the vibrational elements at 8pm on November 8, 2016 mostly feminine or masculine? At that point in time, the sun will be in Scorpio, the moon will be in Pisces and Cancer will be on the rise. All three aspects are feminine water signs, just like the signs that dominate Hillary's chart. Mars, the most masculine force in the universe, will be in Capricorn at that time, which is not a very macho place to be, and isn't connected to anything overtly masculine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Translation: Donald might be using a wad of Benjamins to dry his tears very soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So there you have it!

Gender expression, for most of the documentary's subjects, involves protecting what's specific and personal in their gender identities against easy classifications that have been constructed from the broad outlines of other people's experiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And with suits, too, part of what brings these clients to Bindle & Keep is that they want to assert something specific and personal through their appearance, and they don't want to be limited by tailors who confuse an individual style decision with something inherent to women or men or people with particular bodies. A tailor might expect a suit-wearing body to be shaped a certain way or may not understand why not everyone who has breasts, for instance, wants them to look the same way in a suit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Caring about the way you present to people visually doesn't always get a lot of respect — \u003cem>beauty's only skin-deep, don't be shallow, it's what's inside that counts\u003c/em>. But those are very often platitudes aimed at defending the merits of people who don't fit traditional beauty norms. That's a different question from whole industries not adequately providing people with services everyone else can access that afford social and professional advantages. Everett, for instance, needs a suit for job interviews in the legal field; he didn't make that rule. And he has trouble finding one that both fits correctly and feels like it reads consistently with his gender identity. Finding a way to accommodate the right to individuality \u003cem>and \u003c/em>the right to conformity — to use fashion as both personal expression and common cultural language if you choose — is powerful if you want to have the same options everybody else has.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It would be really easy in a post-\u003cem>Transparent\u003c/em>, post-Caitlyn-Jenner era to feel like \u003cem>Suited \u003c/em>-- which is produced by Lena Dunham and Jenni Konner, both of the \u003cem>Girls \u003c/em>team — is a documentary designed to tell its natural audience a series of things that audience probably already believes. It would feel less valuable if, for instance, its only function were to assert that being transgender is real and difficult — \u003cem>not \u003c/em>because those things aren't still often challenged and threatened in the society these folks live in, but because if you're choosing to tune in for this film (about transgender people, on HBO, produced by Lena Dunham), you probably don't consciously greet those ideas as new. Most people who sit down to watch \u003cem>Suited\u003c/em> will be people who at least \u003cem>think\u003c/em> they know that part already.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But \u003cem>Suited \u003c/em>doesn't just challenge narratives that don't acknowledge trans people; it challenges limitations on which narratives \u003cem>about \u003c/em>trans and gender-nonconforming people have been most prominent on television and in film in the last few years. It tells the story of Derek, who transitioned a number of years back with the help of very supportive parents, and of Jillian, who says that when she decided to transition and come out as a woman, it was like getting out of prison. But it also tells stories about Rae and Mel and Grace, who find gender identity complex enough that there's no single transition or coming-out, as between two completely separate genders, that feels neatly right to them; they all repeat that it's a matter of figuring out how to live comfortably as themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All these stories are different in their particulars: some people change their names, others don't. Some have surgery, others don't. Some have supportive families of origin, others don't. Some care profoundly what pronoun is used to describe them, others don't. But they all want to look good in a suit. And the specificity of that common desire protects the film against any tendency toward the generic. Instead, it's as personal and intimate as being measured by a stranger — which is pretty intimate indeed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Suited premieres on HBO at 9 p.m. on Monday, June 20. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2016 NPR.

A tailor might expect a suit-wearing body to be shaped a certain way or may not understand why not everyone who has breasts, for instance, wants them to look the same way in a suit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Caring about the way you present to people visually doesn't always get a lot of respect — \u003cem>beauty's only skin-deep, don't be shallow, it's what's inside that counts\u003c/em>. But those are very often platitudes aimed at defending the merits of people who don't fit traditional beauty norms. That's a different question from whole industries not adequately providing people with services everyone else can access that afford social and professional advantages. Everett, for instance, needs a suit for job interviews in the legal field; he didn't make that rule. And he has trouble finding one that both fits correctly and feels like it reads consistently with his gender identity. Finding a way to accommodate the right to individuality \u003cem>and \u003c/em>the right to conformity — to use fashion as both personal expression and common cultural language if you choose — is powerful if you want to have the same options everybody else has.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It would be really easy in a post-\u003cem>Transparent\u003c/em>, post-Caitlyn-Jenner era to feel like \u003cem>Suited \u003c/em>-- which is produced by Lena Dunham and Jenni Konner, both of the \u003cem>Girls \u003c/em>team — is a documentary designed to tell its natural audience a series of things that audience probably already believes. It would feel less valuable if, for instance, its only function were to assert that being transgender is real and difficult — \u003cem>not \u003c/em>because those things aren't still often challenged and threatened in the society these folks live in, but because if you're choosing to tune in for this film (about transgender people, on HBO, produced by Lena Dunham), you probably don't consciously greet those ideas as new. Most people who sit down to watch \u003cem>Suited\u003c/em> will be people who at least \u003cem>think\u003c/em> they know that part already.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But \u003cem>Suited \u003c/em>doesn't just challenge narratives that don't acknowledge trans people; it challenges limitations on which narratives \u003cem>about \u003c/em>trans and gender-nonconforming people have been most prominent on television and in film in the last few years. It tells the story of Derek, who transitioned a number of years back with the help of very supportive parents, and of Jillian, who says that when she decided to transition and come out as a woman, it was like getting out of prison. But it also tells stories about Rae and Mel and Grace, who find gender identity complex enough that there's no single transition or coming-out, as between two completely separate genders, that feels neatly right to them; they all repeat that it's a matter of figuring out how to live comfortably as themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All these stories are different in their particulars: some people change their names, others don't. Some have surgery, others don't. Some have supportive families of origin, others don't. Some care profoundly what pronoun is used to describe them, others don't. But they all want to look good in a suit. And the specificity of that common desire protects the film against any tendency toward the generic. Instead, it's as personal and intimate as being measured by a stranger — which is pretty intimate indeed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I immediately put together \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/2015/07/22/rupauls-drag-race-all-stars-2-announced-here-are-the-queens-that-need-to-be-cast/\">a list of the queens that needed to be involved\u003c/a> and then waited.

And waited some more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>11 long months later, we're finally getting our first glimpse of the cast! Six of the 10 queens I requested last July are accounted for, so there's a 31% chance RuPaul read my piece and thought \u003cem>Cogent points!\u003c/em> (He must have been skimming though cause he missed the whole this-will-be-nothing-without-Willam bit.) Half of the \u003cem>All Stars 2\u003c/em> girls are from Season 5, which is odd, but (almost) all of them are great so (almost) no complaints here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Word on the street (i.e. gay Reddit) is that there will be no teams this time around, which was a major criticism of the first \u003cem>All Stars\u003c/em>. Also unlike the last time around, there aren't any obvious filler queens (*cough*Mimi Imfurst*cough*). The competition, which starts airing on August 25, 2016, is sure to bring all the death drops, filthy reads, fireworks and everything else we've come to expect. But who is poised to snatch the crown and who doesn't have a shot in hell?

I immediately put together \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/2015/07/22/rupauls-drag-race-all-stars-2-announced-here-are-the-queens-that-need-to-be-cast/\">a list of the queens that needed to be involved\u003c/a> and then waited.

And waited some more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>11 long months later, we're finally getting our first glimpse of the cast! Six of the 10 queens I requested last July are accounted for, so there's a 31% chance RuPaul read my piece and thought \u003cem>Cogent points!\u003c/em> (He must have been skimming though cause he missed the whole this-will-be-nothing-without-Willam bit.) Half of the \u003cem>All Stars 2\u003c/em> girls are from Season 5, which is odd, but (almost) all of them are great so (almost) no complaints here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Word on the street (i.e. gay Reddit) is that there will be no teams this time around, which was a major criticism of the first \u003cem>All Stars\u003c/em>. Also unlike the last time around, there aren't any obvious filler queens (*cough*Mimi Imfurst*cough*). The competition, which starts airing on August 25, 2016, is sure to bring all the death drops, filthy reads, fireworks and everything else we've come to expect. But who is poised to snatch the crown and who doesn't have a shot in hell?

It's a cousin to writer's block, but louder, and more like a vacuum -- an overwhelming, dog whistle-pitched white noise occupying the corner of your head usually reserved for germinating Hot Takes on Taylor Swift or \u003cem>Ghostbusters\u003c/em> or Peter Thiel. If it were a song with words, they would go \"How on \u003cem>Earth\u003c/em> am I supposed to write about this shit like it matters right now / dear god what is it that I actually do for a living / give up, retreat, crawl under the covers and do not move from the fetal position until the world stops seeming so dark and it feels okay to be entertained by \u003ca href=\"http://gawker.com/smash-mouths-desperate-endless-twitter-battle-1781910819\" target=\"_blank\">Smash Mouth's Twitter feed\u003c/a> again.\" (I never said it was catchy.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then, inevitably, slowly, the paralysis subsides. In its place, alongside righteous anger, is something softer. Something like: After you've cried and screamed and written letters to your congressperson and danced and drank and used whatever coping mechanisms you might personally use to try to make sense of something that's the very definition of senseless, there is a place and a purpose for silliness. Levity, entertainment, diversion -- stupidity, even -- they all have jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's a reason, after all, that \u003ca href=\"http://www.cbsnews.com/news/what-movies-mean-to-us-in-hard-times/\" target=\"_blank\">Hollywood enjoyed its first golden age during the worst of the Great Depression. \u003c/a>In the 14th century, when the bubonic plague was devastating Western Europe, people made up \u003cem>jousting\u003c/em>, for Christ's sake. I'm no expert, but archaeologists would probably tell you at least a few of mankind's earliest cave paintings, rendered by humans under constant threat of death by the elements or woolly mammoth, were essentially prehistoric Cathy cartoons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is with this preamble, and a strong feeling that a love of inanity can exist alongside deep reverence and grief, and also a strong feeling that some of you need to step away from Facebook comment arguments about the Second Amendment before you say things to relatives you later come to regret, that I present the following:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is a circus at Fort Mason right now. It has been here for about a week, and it has five more scheduled performances before it is over. This circus features cats. Cats walking on tightropes. Cats pushing balls in an organized fashion. Cats playing in a motherf*cking rock 'n' roll band.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5Oko13Le44\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I mean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnLcnak9vak\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is some copy, which I have not edited, from the Amazing Acro-Cats' official \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/events/1567257286925425/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook event page\u003c/a> for their time in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The Amazing Acro-cats are a troupe of REAL house cats that jump and pounce into your heart! Reaching out to shelters in need and accepting cats found homeless in the streets, Samantha Martin has not only rescued her own cats but also have found homes for over 172 cats and kittens. Giving them a second chance with positive reinforcement-only clicker training, they take these amazing abilities on the road and tour the nation in the infamous Acro-cat Bus!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ever see a cat walk a tightrope? Meow you can! Ever see someone's pet balance and roll on a ball across the floor? Come see it here and meow! OMG WHUT? - a cat riding a skateboard! But wait, there is so, so much more! The grand finale, presenting the ONLY ALL CAT BAND IN EXISTENCE - Tuna and the Rock Cats! The current band lineup is Tuna on Cowbell, Oz on guitar, Asti on Drums, and Nue on keyboard - Real cats purrforming with Real instruments have blown minds and educated audiences of all ages that CATS CAN ACTUALLY BE TRAINED!\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4-i7PSzAfA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Acro-Cats perform tonight, June 17, at 7pm; Saturday, June 18 at 3 and 7pm; and Sunday, June 19 at 1 and 5pm in the Southside Theatre at Fort Mason Center, Building D. Tickets are $25 - $35, and a portion of the proceeds go to benefit the nonprofit \u003ca href=\"http://www.cattownoakland.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Cat Town Oakland.\u003c/a> If you have further questions, the answers can probably be found on the excellent website\u003ca href=\"http://www.circuscats.com/\" target=\"_blank\"> CircusCats.com\u003c/a>. Please note said website is also worth a look even if you don't have questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With that: Happy Friday, friends. Take care of yourselves this weekend. Hold your loved ones close. And then, if you really love them, maybe take them to the cat circus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n",

It's a cousin to writer's block, but louder, and more like a vacuum -- an overwhelming, dog whistle-pitched white noise occupying the corner of your head usually reserved for germinating Hot Takes on Taylor Swift or \u003cem>Ghostbusters\u003c/em> or Peter Thiel. If it were a song with words, they would go \"How on \u003cem>Earth\u003c/em> am I supposed to write about this shit like it matters right now / dear god what is it that I actually do for a living / give up, retreat, crawl under the covers and do not move from the fetal position until the world stops seeming so dark and it feels okay to be entertained by \u003ca href=\"http://gawker.com/smash-mouths-desperate-endless-twitter-battle-1781910819\" target=\"_blank\">Smash Mouth's Twitter feed\u003c/a> again.\" (I never said it was catchy.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then, inevitably, slowly, the paralysis subsides. In its place, alongside righteous anger, is something softer. Something like: After you've cried and screamed and written letters to your congressperson and danced and drank and used whatever coping mechanisms you might personally use to try to make sense of something that's the very definition of senseless, there is a place and a purpose for silliness. Levity, entertainment, diversion -- stupidity, even -- they all have jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's a reason, after all, that \u003ca href=\"http://www.cbsnews.com/news/what-movies-mean-to-us-in-hard-times/\" target=\"_blank\">Hollywood enjoyed its first golden age during the worst of the Great Depression. \u003c/a>In the 14th century, when the bubonic plague was devastating Western Europe, people made up \u003cem>jousting\u003c/em>, for Christ's sake. I'm no expert, but archaeologists would probably tell you at least a few of mankind's earliest cave paintings, rendered by humans under constant threat of death by the elements or woolly mammoth, were essentially prehistoric Cathy cartoons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
