Cat Watching The Lion King
What's more emotional than watching Mufasa die? A cat watching Mufasa die -and then trying to comfort Simba.
12 Years of Eliot Stabler
Eliot Stabler was a fun character to watch on the TV series Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, but he was a horrible cop. Here is a compilation of his more "unstable" moments, appropriate choreographed to "The Hall of the Mountain King." Did I say he "was" a fun character? He still is. NBC is getting Christopher Meloni back to reprise his SVU character for a new series in which Stabler will investigate organized crime. (via Cracked)
The Closet Pole
The closet pole came out of its brackets. There's no word on how long Evie worked on this problem before she called her father to help. Unfortunately, he couldn't stop laughing long enough to do anything else. (via Digg)
Lovely Day
It's not Bill Withers' most famous song (that would be "Lean on Me"), but one that always made me feel good. Withers passed away Monday at the age of 81.

M*A*S*H Has Seen It All
Every annoying and unfamiliar issue we are dealing with this year has already been confronted by the residents of the 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital during the Korean War. Frank Vaccarriello looked up the scenes from M*A*S*H that deal with social distancing, infection, hand washing, and worst of all, lack of toilet paper. (via Laughing Squid)
Finnegan the Fox
Finally, we learn what the fox says! Finnegan lives at Save a Fox Rescue in Faribault, Minnesota. He looks in the window, because he wants attention from his caretaker, and he gets it. So what does the fox say? He giggles! (via Digg)
On Hold
These companies are getting better and better at social distancing. They don't want to deal with us any more than we want to deal with them. The problem is, they have the power. This comic is from Zach Weinersmith at Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.
Can You Solve the Sea Monster Riddle?
This riddle starts off with a rollicking story of monsters and magic, and then gets into math. There's some logic, too, but it's really about math. While the answer is pretty darn cool, it wouldn't work if the numbers were the least bit different. Sure, sea monsters and floating cities are fantastical, but what really defies logic in this story is that they could keep chests full of pearls around for a thousand years without someone stealing any. That part is truly preposterous.

A Desperate Mothers’ Prayer
Thank you, Lord, for my children being grown and not needing my help with their online classes. About that constantly open refrigerator door, though... (via Neatorama)
