Didn’t See That Coming of the Day: Jason Russell, co-founder of the controversial nonprofit Invisible Children and the star of its ultra-viral fundraising campaign video KONY2012, was arrested yesterday in the San Diego neighborhood of Pacific Beach for masturbating in public while under the influence.
The San Diego Police Department says Russell, 33, was taken into custody after he was caught masturbating in public and vandalizing cars. Lt. Andra Brown also noted that he was under the influence, but did not identify the substance.
His overall behavior was said to have been “Very strange.”
[nbcsd.]
UPDATE: Invisible Children has just released the following statement concerning Russell’s public display of self-affection:
Jason Russell was unfortunately hospitalized yesterday suffering from exhaustion, dehydration, and malnutrition. He is now receiving medical care and is focused on getting better. The past two weeks have taken a severe emotional toll on all of us, Jason especially, and that toll manifested itself in an unfortunate incident yesterday. Jason’s passion and his work have done so much to help so many, and we are devastated to see him dealing with this personal health issue. We will always love and support Jason, and we ask that you give his entire family privacy during this difficult time.
Woah man. Woah.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0zvhkxNKD1qzpwi0o1_1280.jpg)

Crazyass Japanese Thing of the Day: Zookeepers and security guards at Tokyo’s Ueno Zoo conducted their annual escaped-Rhino drill this week.
As always, it was incredibly Japanese.
I just……wow.

This Is All Kinds Of Wrong of the Day: After years of partnering with Planned Parenthood to offer low-income patients access to life-saving breast cancer screenings, Susan G. Komen for the Cure — a breast-cancer charity that has been known to sue small charities for using “for the cure” in their names — announced yesterday it would no longer fund those screenings.
The alleged reason? A newly instituted rule at Komen “that prohibits grants to organizations being investigated by local, state or federal authorities.”
While a congressional investigation against Planned Parenthood was launched by Florida Republican Cliff Stearns — a staunchly pro-life politician who called defunding Planned Parenthood a “fiscal and moral priority” — many supporters of Komen are failing to see the connection between abortions and breast-cancer screenings.
However, things get considerably clearer once it becomes known that Komen recently appointed Karen Handel, an “anti-choice” Georgia Republican who promised to defund Planned Parenthood, to serve as its SVP.
Taking Komen’s excuse — which includes the line “we must continue to evolve to best meet the needs of the women we serve and most fully advance our mission” — on its face becomes problematic when considering that all of the money granted to Planned Parenthood by Komen was being used to provide screenings to uninsured or underinsured women.
For the record, “abortion services” make up 3% of total services provided by Planned Parenthood. Cancer screening and prevention? 16%.
How can Komen claim to be acting in the best interest of women when it is actively denying many of them access to life-saving breast-cancer screenings that can’t get anywhere else? That’s what many on Komen’s Facebook page and message board would like to know.
They have been leaving angry messages denouncing Komen’s action since the news broke. Many are putting their pocketbook where their fingers are and donating money to Planned Parenthood that would have gone to Komen.
Over the past 24 hours Planned Parenthood has raised “hundreds of thousands” of dollars, and may have already surpassed the amount it would have received from Komen.

A Letter To The Petty Social Media Whistleblowers
Stop being such a fucking twit. No, seriously, stop it. While you may think your daily upper-middle class rants are the retail world’s answer to Roger Ebert let’s just put a few things into perspective:
· Future shop wouldn’t return the iPod that you actually purchased at Vision—who the fuck cares
· The shoes you purchased with the big-ass red FINAL SALE sticker can’t be refunded—who the fuck cares
· You left your Prada bag at the YWCA under the sign which less than discretely reads ‘we are not responsible for lost or stolen items’ and it mysteriously disappeared 2 hours later—WHO THE FUCK CARES
· You put a dress on a 24h hold and six days later it was gone—for cereal, go choke on a Tiffany pendant… you’re more or less an ignorant suckhole
I appreciate your need to word vomit incessant bitching onto this wonderful world we call the interweb but please be clear on a few things. There are in fact some basic rules, regulations, common sense reasonings, and social niceties that everyone more or less has to live by. Unless you’re Ryan Gosling in which case do whatever the hell you want you perfect piece of tenderized man meat. Just because you left your brain (and probably your underpants) tucked under a pile of Cosmo magazines in your trust-fund downtown studio-loft doesn’t mean you are intrinsically allowed a get out of jail free card for screaming bloody murder at that poor kid with bacne working the MacDonald’s counter then following it up with a slanderous Facebook post about how he works for a satanic establishment and will probably die a virgin. 99% of the time these people are just trying to keep their jobs by following protocols and you’re the asshole who needs to get their shit together… unless your village is in fact being raped and pillaged by the good people at KFC. That would be super fucked up.
