it ain’t easy being Clooney, racist KFC ad, more: leftover links

Every week my browser gets cluttered up with tabs for stuff that I stumble across and figure I might be able to use as a Question of the Day or a WTF Thought for the Day or grist for some other post. And inevitably, I end the week with most of that material unused. But it just occurred to me that there’s no reason to let this stuff go to waste: I can share it with you all each weekend, and start the new week with a clean slate.

So, herewith the first batch of leftover links, in no particular order:
