Do you know who Bubba is? You don‘t?! Obviously, you have no heart.

Bubba is a cat who grew up on the mean streets of Chicago, spending the first few months of his young life all by his lonesome. After finally being adopted by a nice couple, Bubba was still unable to “flourish.” He was shy all the time, hated visitors, and was just generally one unhappy cat.

Bubba’s owners knew they had to do something, so they called up a pet psychic. They paid someone to tell them the inner thoughts of their cat. And you know what that psychic individual told them? The reason for Bubba’s unhappiness was an inner emotional struggle…that’s right…Bubba was a transgendered cat.

Even though Bubba was a boy, the pet psychic told his owners that Bubba identified as a female. Immediately, the owners jumped into action. They went about “accepting” Bubba’s feelings, and put up a website asking anyone who stumbled upon it to donate money for Bubba’s sex change operation.

How can anyone say no to such a realistic and heartfelt request? How could we possibly ignore the brave plight of Bubba the transgendered cat? The answer is that we can’t. So donate today. Bubba needs us, people.

Jacy Nova, the resident astrologer for Astrochicks.com (a CC editor fave), recently opened up to us about her site, herself, and why Astrology is so damn popular.

Growing up in a house where psychic ability was the norm (Nova’s mother would routinely do readings for friends and family), Jacy learned how to take a “lighthearted” approach to her gift, as well as how to cultivate it into something more than just the occasional tarot card reading for a friend.  In addition to writing the celebrity gossip / dating / Astrology hybrid of Astrochicks, Jacy also gives “chart readings” to interested individuals.

Wow, so how about Medium last Monday night, huh?

The premiere episode was just OK, but with this one I could tell that Glenn Gordon Caron and the writers have really shot straight back up to the level of tension, mystery, and all-around awesomeness they had reached at the peak of last season.

I loved seeing more about Ariel, especially now that she’s blossoming into the snide teenager that everyone hates. After that episode, I’m beginning to think she should have been born in the ’70s, because the huge hair and earrings the size of small yachts really suited her.

I’m still not sure about Ameritips Woman, though (what the hell is her name, anyway? Cynthia or something old-ladyish like that?). Anjelica Huston is a great actress, no doubt, but whenever I look at her, all I can think about is how strongly she resembles a horse. Read More »

If you’ve ever watched VH1 or MTV late at night, you’ve heard the ads.

Call this number right now for advice from your very own personal psychic!!!

Then digits flash across the screen, you’re promised that your “every question will be answered” and Road Rules: Annoying People vs. Super Self-Absorbed People comes back on, leaving you to wonder if you just missed your chance to know more about that cute lifeguard from the other day at the beach.

Who hasn’t been tempted to dial or talk to a psychic? They’re everywhere. On commercials, on the internet, solving crimes on TV (Psychic Detectives, anyone?) throwing tarot cards in the back of your favorite head shop, and even telling fortunes from the comfort of their own homes.

I’ll be the first to stand up and confess I’ve given money to someone in the hopes they’ll see into my future. It sounds completely ridiculous once you write something like that down, but those people can be so damn compelling! And always so sure of themselves, no matter what they tell you, they say it with such conviction you feel obligated to believe them (even the ladies who answer the door in their bathrobes with a towel wrapped around their heads. Even these woman, who would be considered crazy in any other circle, read your palm so sternly it makes you forget they decided to conduct business sans clothes). Read More »
