What is it with musicians and Ebola?

Yesterday, Twitchy brought you the story of a Grammy-nominated production team, Arkatech Beatz, which claimed that Ebola is a fake scenario conjured up by pharmaceutical companies.

The Martinez Brothers, “globe-trotting DJ superstars” from the Bronx, also hold peculiar views about Ebola.

And if you don’t agree with them, “your buggin.”

If Electronic Billing Didn’t Exist, This Dog’s Family Would Be In Big Trouble

An adorable Boston terrier named Abby likes to skip her afternoon nap every day, because that’s when a certain government worker drops paper treasures through the door.

While she probably thinks that she’s protecting her humans from rectangular invaders, the only thing her bizarre reaction really proves is that the battle between dogs and mail carriers wages on.

I have a feeling that this family has probably switched to electronic billing since Abby came along.

This Is What A Cheeseburger Looks Like In Space

I’ll stick to the regular earth kind, thanks.

1. Astronaut Terry Virts has tweeted out a picture of a space-cheeseburger.

2. Just. Look. At. It.

3. It makes sense that the normal ingredients are replaced with their space-paste versions, but why is it in a tortilla?

Zero gravity makes assembling a sandwich difficult, and the crumbs from regular bread are dangerous if they get stuck in airvents or sensitive equipment. That’s why Tortillas have replaced bread in space since 1980.

4. Sadly, that means this gif is lying to you.

5. And that this cat sits on a throne of lies.

Meet The First Woman With Down Syndrome To Walk At Fashion Week

Jamie Brewer, American Horror Story actress and advocate, just made runway history.

1. Actress and advocate Jamie Brewer just made history by becoming the first woman with Down syndrome to walk the red carpet at New York Fashion Week.

Marc Hall for Carrie Hammer

2. Brewer, who stars on FX’s American Horror Story, strutted down the runway on Thursday in a chic AHS-inspired black dress by designer Carrie Hammer.

3. Since her first runway show in 2014, Hammer has been known for her “Role Models Not Runway Models” campaign.

To “empower working women everywhere,” Hammer selects women of diverse backgrounds and sizes to walk in her shows. Before Brewer, Hammer’s shows have had several firsts: Danielle Sheypuk (above left) was the first women in a wheelchair to appear on the runway, and Karen Crespo was the first quadruple amputee to do the same.

“When I met Carrie we had no idea how big [Role Models Not Runway Models] would get,” Sheypuk told BuzzFeed Life. “We didn’t even know I was the first one to be on the runway in a wheelchair. Since then it’s been a nonstop whirlwind.”

5. Hammer receives many nominations for “real women” to appear in her shows, but this year one stood out.

BuzzFeed

After seeing news of Hammer’s previous Role Models, Driscoll sent an email to Hammer asking for her to include a role model for her daughter Grace, who has Down syndrome. Driscoll’s foundation, Changing Faces of Beauty, lobbies brands and companies to integrate those with disabilities into their advertising.

“People with disabilities are the largest minority in the world,” Driscoll told BuzzFeed Life. “We have a long way to go, but we are definitely on the right track. We’re so thankful for people like Carrie who believe. For her to give Grace a role model, there’s no words.”

This is what a runway revolution looks like! #rolemodelsnotrunwaymodels

7. While she was walking, Brewer told BuzzFeed Life she did some very subtle homages to some other powerful women she gets to work with: Jessica Lange, Sara Paulson, Gabourey Sidibe, and Emma Roberts.

“It’s neat that Carrie is including individuals within the disabled community, it’s incredible,” Brewer told BuzzFeed Life. “She should add more because I know it will be worth it.”

8. Hammer told BuzzFeed News that Brewer was a joy to work with, calling her a “lightning rod of energy.”

“If TV doesn’t work out for Jamie she could definitely be a full-time model,” she said.
