Kitty with Mouse Toy...or is it?

This is one of my favorite valentines that didn't quite make the Truly Disturbing cut. The innocent expression, the pinafore, the mouse with a ribbon on its tail...what the heck?!

Meat Valentine #2

A little something from Vintage Meat.

Happy April Fish Day!

Creepy Easter: A Fine Young Cannibal Indeed

“Is it progress if a cannibal uses a knife and fork?”
---Stanislaw Lee

Creepy Easter: Cannibalism for Children!

Mother (a fine example of Chickens With Human Hands) cautions her children not to get too close to breakfast, which is, of course, delicious boiled eggs.

“Genuine polemics approach a book as lovingly as a cannibal spices a baby.”
---Walter Benjamin

Creepy Easter: Cannibalism!

This Easter season we have seen the scourge of Hungry Kittens eating brand new chicks, and the Ravening of Bunnies who consume an even earlier form of bird. What could possibly be worse than these Easter gastronomes, you ask?

Try cannibalism.

It's very common among the poultry set, if this charming antique image is any indication. Nothing like a little late night work over the ledger books and a quick quaff of the unborn for refreshment.

“'For what we are about to receive, Oh Lord 'tis Thee we thank,'
said the cannibal as he cut a slice off the missionary's shank.”
--- E. Y. Harburg

Creepy Easter: Rabbits Eating Embryos Part 2

Creepy Easter: Rabbits Eating Embryos

Another profoundly disturbing secret of Easter is that while kittens wait for the egg to hatch, rabbits will eat the egg itself. Here we see a misguided hen enabling a hungry bunny just in time for breakfast, while an older sibling looks on.

Creepy Easter: Hungry Kittens Again

The mother holds her kitten close, and the kitten holds a chick even closer. Yes, it is a sweet scene, but look again. Is that kitten chewing? Is that chick struggling to break free? Are its companions running away, peeping in fear, leaving the unlucky one to a horrible fate?

Ah, Happy Easter. Happy Easter, indeed.
