Bill O’Reilly just managed to come off worse than Donald Trump. Not only is O’Reilly’s stereotyping of black Americans offensive — it’s hypocritical.

Update: Larry Wilmore saw this O’Reilly segment and had some words for the Fox News host.

But he didn’t stop there. Wilmore invited his viewers to join in:

And they did.

Update: Did you think Larry was done with Bill O’Reilly? Guess again.

This week O’Reilly doubled down on his comments and was even upset by the people accusing him of racism.

Larry Wilmore was having none of that.

Larry was clearly frustrated by all this, so he did the only thing he could to get through to Bill O’Reilly.

Enter Preacher Wilmore.

Flights Of Fancy: Exploring The Songs And Pathways Of ‘The Living Bird’

Scott Weidensaul explains his fascination with owls: 

“Owls are incredibly vocal and you’re right, most owls don’t hoot, they make this ridiculous array of sounds, caterwauling. One of the owls that I studied, a little northern Saw-whet owl, sounds like a garbage truck backing up, it’s this mechanical tooting sound. Barn owls, which live in old church steeples and barns and silos, sound like demon spawn from the pit of hell. It’s this horrible screeching banshee wail that will make you believe in ghosts. … 

They’re nocturnal; they’re mysterious; we know very little about them; they look vaguely human-like, they’ve got these big round heads and forward facing eyes, so I mean, people have been fascinated by owls for as long as we’ve been human. In fact, if you go back 30,000 years ago, on the walls of the Chauvet Cave in France, along with these beautiful murals of cave lions and woolly rhinoceroses, somebody took their finger and inscribed the very clear outline of a little scops owl with its little ear tufts in mud on the wall of the cave. We’ve loved owls for as long as we’ve been standing upright as people.”

Ethiopian Artist Elias Sime Recycles Discarded Circuit Boards into Computer-Part Collages

unconsumption

Ethiopian artist Elias Sime creates expansive collages and sculpture from discarded electronic odds and ends gathered from local markets. His latest solo exhibition at James Cohan Gallery in New York, consists of a series of massive panels layered with the cast-off innards of computers and machines….

For Sime, the objects he uses are not trash: “I treat them like oil paint, acrylic or clay.” he explains.

The Ken-L Land Pet Motel opened at Disneyland on January 18, 1958  The kennel’s name was sometimes spelled Ken-L Land (consistent with the usual hyphenation of the sponsor’s name) and sometimes Ken-L-Land (with an extra hyphen). Disneyland nomenclature was less exact in those days.

Over the years, five different pet food brands sponsored the pet kennel. The kennel is still operational today, although without a sponsor.

Sometimes Ken-L Land showed up in Disneyland advertising:

“Man’s best friend” has not been forgotten when the family visits Disneyland, thanks to Ken-L-Ration’s deluxe Pet Motel, Ken-L-Land. The courteous, competent staff sees that your pet is provided with and individual “suite” and all the comforts of home. A complimentary feeding of Ken-L-Ration is served your pet, if you so desire.

— Disneyland display ad, Los Angeles Times, June 14, 1959

In 1965, the price for a full day at Ken-L Land was just 25 cents, including a can of food:

Ken-L-Land, an air-conditioned dog motel, is 100 feet outside Disneyland’s main gate. Your dog will love his individual “suite.” Entrust your pet to out experienced handler whose specialty is tender, loving care. The 25c all-day fee includes a free can on Ken-L-Ration… at Ken-L-Land.

— Disneyland display ad, Los Angeles Times, June 14, 1965

The Ken-L Land Pet Motel name lasted until 1968. Then Kal Kan took over sponsorship. The name changed to the “Kennel Club.”

By 1975, the price had doubled to a still very reasonable 50 cents. According to the Disneyland Guide, Summer 1975:

PET CARE
You may leave your pet in an airy, individual enclosure at a cost of only 50¢ for the entire day. This charge includes a choice of Kal Kan pet food. This facility, sponsored by Kal Kan, is located to the right of the Main Gate Ticket Booths. Sorry, pets cannot be left overnight.

Kal Kan’s sponsorship ran until 1977. From 1986 until 1991, Gaines sponsored the “Pet Care Kennel.”
