An opossum that apparently drank bourbon after breaking into a Florida liquor store sobered up at a wildlife rescue center and was released unharmed.
Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge officials say the opossum was brought in by a Fort Walton Beach, Fla., police officer on Nov. 24th, the AP reports.
A liquor store employee found the animal next to a broken and empty bottle of bourbon. “A worker there found the opossum up on a shelf next to a cracked-open bottle of liquor with nothing in it,” says Michelle Pettis, a technician at the refuge.
“She definitely wasn’t fully acting normal.” Pettis tells the Northwest Florida Daily News the female opossum appeared disoriented, was excessively salivating, and was pale.
The staff pumped the marsupial full of fluids and cared for her as she sobered up.
“We loaded her up with fluids to help flush out any alcohol toxins,” Pettis says. “She was good a couple of days later.”
Pettis says the opossum didn’t appear to have a hangover. The store owner, Cash Moore, says he never had an opossum break in before.
“She came in from the outside and was up in the rafters, and when she came through she knocked a bottle of liquor off the shelf,” Moore says. “When she got down on the floor she drank the whole damn bottle.” (PETA tried to stop a North Carolina town’s New Year’s Eve Possum Drop.)

NBA Prospect Lonnie Walker’s Hot New Conspiracy Theory: ‘The earth is definitely an illusion’
Miami freshman Lonnie Walker IV might play a bit like Victor Oladipo but he does interviews like Kyrie Irving.
During last week’s NBA combine in Chicago, Walker dropped a truth bomb that would make even Kyrie blush.
“When you talk about facts and things of that nature, it’s amazing to me we’ve discovered so much about this world, yet, we don’t anything about this world,” Walker said. “The earth is not flat, in my opinion, but the earth, on my conspiracy, the earth is definitely an illusion.”

So is his defense.

I mean sex robots are weird... but doesn't that kinda go against the entire point of a sex robot if it'll just turn you down?

This is probably the likelier threat.
But I’ve seen videos of robots who can do flips and open doors, who have been powered by A.I. fed from reddit discussions, who now say no to being anytime joy toys, so, I’m pretty sure the next step is Ava, so, we are definitely all screwed even when the robot says no to screwing.

Maybe that should go in the hope and inspiration thread?
But how does he take a dump and wipe himself?

It is a really rapey song if you listen to it.

It's part of the war on date rape. When conservatives were just getting over being mercilessly savaged by Starbucks christmas cups this happens. Poor kittens are clutching their pearls.
