Scanning the
world for weirdness … and today (as happens many days) it comes from Great
Britain. A lady in London, Sasha Jordan, is owned by seven cats, who have
tricked her into setting up a Facebook page for them, a page she spends hours a
day updating.
From a story you
would only find in the Daily Mail: Sasha
said that her schedule to update fans is so demanding that she sometimes feels
like she is managing a boy band, and two of the cats have even become modeling
stars. The page, which can
be found here, has almost 1.4
million "likes." Some days it picks up more than 10,000.
Sasha posts
pictures and status updates. Fans ask questions of her and of the individual
cats she bills as The Magnificent 7. She answers for them personally.
I hate to come
off as jealous, but these posers only have to POSE. Unlike this humble orange
cat, they don’t have to think deep thoughts about crumbling media business
models, or research civil liberties issues, or delve into history nobody cares
about.
The Magnificent 7
are cute, and now they are famous because of Sasha’s diligent work. May they
live long, prosperous lives nine times over. BTW, you won’t find me on
Facebook, because I hate Mark Zuckerberg. Screw him and the censorship-loving
horse he rode in on.
