Moray eels have been bred for the first time at a Zoo in Austria, and the babies are now old enough to show off their very impressive teeth. “Up to now, nobody knew what the larvae look like, what they eat and how they behave“, said the zoo’s director, Dagmar Schratter, who hopes to breed more moray eels now that they’ve finally figured out the right conditions.

Election day is TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 8th
- You can check your polling place AND time HERE.
- I would HIGHLY recommend bringing two forms of ID [a gov. i.e. your license or photo ID AND your voter ID] with you to poll. Some states have voter ID laws, and in other states you need your ID if it’s your first time voting at that particular location.
- Avoid any trouble, don’t wear any pins, tshirts, etc. for a particular candidates. Some areas consider it passive electioneering.
- You CAN NOT vote via text, online, etc. Anyone advertising otherwise is lying.
- The only person to ask you for your ID should be the individual working the polls sitting at a table inside the building in question. If anyone else asks you for your ID or gives you a hard time, they have no authority to do so and should be avoided.
- You CAN NOT take a photo of your ballot/voting machine/etc. Take a cute photo with your “I Voted” sticker after and call it a day.
Most importantly, stay safe, be smart and VOTE VOTE VOTE
No one with a brain wants to elect a lying, misogynistic, racist, xenophobic, treasonous, bigoted, sociopath. If you stay home on election day or waste your vote on a third party candidate like Jill Stein, THEN ELECTING TRUMP IS A REAL POSSIBILITY AND WE CANNOT LET THAT HAPPEN.
Fight locations, ranked
IHOP parking lot: ridiculous. buffoonish. 3/10
Denny’s parking lot: has a certain dionysian flair. 6/10
Dunkin Donuts parking lot: lots of regional flavor. 7/10
The woods: nice and secluded, plenty of opportunities to use the terrain to your advantage. Just make sure to bring bug spray. 8/10
Any roof: dangerous, but points for style. 5/10
The top of any mountain: much like the woods, but with far more dramatic flair. Almost byronic. Loses points for being less practical than the other locations on this list, however. 7/10
A graveyard: disrespectful to the skeletons. 0/10
An abandoned warehouse: something of a cliche. 4/10
Any liminal space: This category includes town lines, entryways, borders, and crossroads. Is this a deeply symbolic, metaphorically charged fight? If it wasn’t before, it is now. 9/10
Wal-Mart parking lot: Quick question, are you shitting me right now? This is the absolute worst fight location. If you have any respect at all for the noble art of throwing the fuck down, don’t get in a fight in a wal-mart parking lot. In fact, this also applies to wal-mart checkout lines, roofs, employee break rooms, corporate headquarters, and indeed any space at all associated with the walton family or the wal-mart corporation. Fuck wal-mart. 0/10
The parking lot of an abandoned Blockbuster Video: The cracked and faded blockbuster sign is a potent memento mori, inspiring a keen awareness of entropy and a sharp sense of loss in your opponent. As blockbuster is, so shall they one day be. Are there weedy plants growing up through cracks in the pavement? Oh man, that’s even better. The perfect fight location. 10/10
