Perhaps you’re unconvinced that we live in the End Times and civilization is going to collapse like a House of Cards into a Zombie led Mad Max/Hunger Games Apocalypse despite the best efforts of the Justice League AND the Avengers (c’mon, of course the Justice League is first, Stan Lee never met a good idea he didn’t steal).
Well screw your Global Warming/Imperial Overeach/Neolib Global Economic Depression/Race War fantasies, I have for you the Seventh Seal, the final sign that Judgement Day is nigh. Are you enRaptured yet?
New Yorker becomes first to catch all U.S. Pokemon

Nick Johnson said he’s worked 50 hours per week, walked eight miles per day and lost eight pounds.
It sounds like part of a new fitness craze, but it’s really Pokemon Go. And Johnson’s work paid off — the New Yorker is reportedly the first person to catch all the U.S. Pokemon in the smartphone game.
Johnson posted his picture proof to Reddit on Thursday, and many Redditors immediately accused him of cheating or otherwise lying about the accomplishment. The game has been available in the U.S. since July 6, meaning Johnson took about two weeks to accomplish the feat.
But Matt Weinberger, a reporter for Business Insider, said Johnson was a personal friend and he could confirm the picture’s legitimacy.
“Speaking personally, I’ve gotten enough late-night Facebook messages boasting of a new Pokemon capture to vouch for his dedication and thoroughness,” Weinberger wrote.
Frankly, those five brief paragraphs encapsulate exactly why I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords.
Oh, you only think that was Homer Simpson. In fact it was Marilyn Fryser (yes, that Joan Collins) in Empire of the Ants from 1977.
