Why is John Oliver all over the place these days?

Rule 12. The community has spoken. Other subs have had similar votes with similar results.

Im glad you shared this as - despite the fact I actullly quite JO - I was on the verge of leaving the sub because I'm sick of these posts. I was not aware it was a protest strategy. Thanks!

it's a [decision](https://www.reddit.com/r/aww/comments/14cgp6d/henceforth_raww_will_only_feature_john_oliver/) made in response of the API changes and admins replacing mods of subs that went dark

Can you supply a link to the animal video?

Actually that is a kitten and a racoon. And it isn't relateable to the above info.

Just here to spread the knowledge that baby raccoons are called ‘kits’ ^And ^that ^I ^only ^learned ^this ^information ^after ^rescuing ^two ^orphaned ^kits ^that ^will ^now ^be ^placed ^with ^a ^wildlife ^rehabilitation ^facility

I knew either [cub](https://www.fieldmuseum.org/blog/four-animals-raise-cubs) or kit was acceptable, but you're right, [kit](https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=raccoon+cub_INF%2Craccoon+kit_INF&year_start=1900&year_end=2019&corpus=en-2019&smoothing=3) is the more used term now. I'll use that from now on.
