Extinction Archive

Dashing, well-connected man-about-town that I am, I caught a Super Secret and Exclusive pre-screening of Alfonso Cuaron’s new sci-fi flick “Children of Men” last night. You know, the frat-boy’s dream come true dystopian nightmare where women can’t get pregnant anymore? Yeah. First off, let me concur with everyone on Earth that the flick is KILLER. […]

You know why little kids like dinosaurs? Because they f**king rock, that’s why. They were big and they ate things, like mom and dad, if they were available.

So it’s good to sea that the news hounds at Discovery haven’t lost that impulse, amply demonstrated by their “Artist’s Rendering” of the “Ferocious Monster” just discovered by […]

Polar Bear Nuts Shrinking

What’s up with Polar Bear oat totes? Well I’ll tell you, you sick fuck:
Pollution, which can act like hormones and has been responsible for outright gender reversal in some species, has shrunk them mountain oysters, which are still averaging a respectable 3 inches in diameter. No one’s actually bothered to find out if this is […]

Usually I give approximately 2.3 shits about anti-extinction issues (show me an activist who cares as much about an endangered arthropod as a cuddly mammal, and I’ll show you the fucking Easter Bunny), but this dude drew me in. Yes, it’s all about a photogenic mammal again - the indigenous tigers of India and China, […]

Alright folks, the debate’s over. The Missing Link washed ashore in St. Petersburg, FL this week and is available for purchase on Ebay. Nevermind that it looks suspiciously like a papier mache Predator with an advanced case of coke nose. The intrepid auctioneer isn’t led astray by such astray-leaders, opting to wax philosophical: “Looking over […]

OK, people. I know the fuckers are cute and all, but if you don’t put down the panda crackpipe, we’re all gonna wake up one morning welcoming our new economic Mandarin overlords.
Luckily, the brass in our nation’s capital has a plan to help ameliorate this geopolitical tailspin you hapless, babytalk-spouting sheep seem bent on […]

We at Frinktank are big fans of the girls over at Inky Circus, so much so that we’ll cool it with the crude innuendo and dicktacular double entendres when speaking of them. Though despite our tumescent chivalry, we can’t help but point out something distinctly Frinkish in a recent post of theirs about the rapidly […]

So Stephen Hawking says we should start colonizing the moon within the next century before mankind fubars Earth. Well, my bags are packed. I got dibs on this sw33t crater just a block down from Bob Zubrin’s feldspar duplex. But here I have a fab 700 square foot apartment and a not infrequent hankering for […]

First capitalism, then nuts-on-your-shoulder rim-rockas, now a sudden aversion to abortion? Damn China, quit bitin’ our steez!
The planet’s foremost sausage soiree just got a little more roast beefy, if ya dig. The historically babe-loathing country, which claims a gender deficit of 134 males to 100 females in some regions, today closed over 200 clinics specializing […]
