a 10 second video of zooming into manhattan with a neutron star on top for size comparison. the video serves no unique purpose and could have easily been illustrated with a still picture

highly unrealistic. a neutron star that close to the surface of the earth would have absorbed the entire planetary mass into itself in microseconds. terrible

Flanagan then stated that he has “no sympathy for child molesters, but [has] grave doubts” about putting them in jail for their “taste in pictures.” The crowd jeered, but Flanagan’s mouth kept on going like the Energizer Bunny. He claimed it is an issue of personal liberty and even gave an off-the-cuff mention that, “due to a long story,” he was put on the mailing list of the national man/boy love association and received its mailings for two years.

While Martin calls the majority of his fans "great", and enjoys interacting with them,[5] some of them turned against him due to the six years it took to release A Dance with Dragons.[3] A movement of disaffected fans called GRRuMblers formed in 2009, creating sites such as Finish the Book, George and Is Winter Coming?.[6][3] It is not uncommon for Martin to be mobbed at book signings either.[1] The New Yorker called this "an astonishing amount of effort to devote to denouncing the author of books one professes to love. Few contemporary authors can claim to have inspired such passion."[3]

This is the the first time that a pope has been named "Francis"[66] and the first time since Pope Lando's brief 913 reign that a serving pope held a name unused by a predecessor[67] (though the dual-name John Paul had not been used before Pope John Paul I adopted it in 1978, the names had separately been used previously).

An online movement of Holmes supporters, self-described as "Holmies", have created Tumblr and Twitter pages defending Holmes. Members of the group, post images of themselves wearing plaid clothes and drinking Slurpees, in mimickry of Holmes. They also create drawings featuring Holmes and discuss writing to him in jail.[83][84][85][86][87]

There are also Facebook conspiracy theorists [88] [89][90], who consider themselves different than "Holmies" and yet share the same characteristics such as wearing plaid, using his picture as an avatar, coddling Holmes, writing to him, and "researching" the case. Post-its that were left in a courthouse bathroom advertising a conspiracy documentary on Holmes was claimed to be the work of this group [91], who has also resorted to contacting members of the victims' families in an attempt to convince them that the shooting was fabricated and that Holmes is a patsy.[92] Recently, this group and their antics were mentioned by District Attorney George Brauchler in a court document concerning the safety of the Aurora shooting victims.[93]
