Yet another one →
There has to be a website that tallies these, right? If not, can we make one? I would love to see how many of these stories happen in a given year, and whether they follow any kind of discernible temporal or geographic pattern. Maybe Nate Silver could help us out.

Hi. :)

New opportunities for revenue
I just realized, literally a few seconds ago, that as far as I know, I’ve never seen a wrecking ball in action in person. It seems like the kind of thing I’d’ve remembered. Damn.
I can’t be the only person who’s vaguely fascinated by construction or demolition I see going on in the world around me, right? They’re redoing Doyle Drive right now, around the corner...

I'm just putting this out there
We’re angry about “Don’t ask, don’t tell” not getting repealed. That’s as it should be. But ours is a predictable, ineffectual-seeming kind of anger that’ll mostly be expressed on the internet to each other, to people who were already going to be mad about it. We’ll write some blog posts, some of which will be terrible, some of which will be...

about.me indeed →
There’s this new service gearing up for widespread launch whose basic aim, as far as I can tell, is to allow people who have a significant (or in my case, widely spread out) internet presence to have one single place on the internet that links a visitor to all the shit they do, or at least all the shit they do that they care for you to see. There are some analytics to crunch on if you link...

And now for a glass of cold, distilled truth
This is how conspiracy theories happen.
This new album by Stars is almost astonishingly good
In fact, it makes their previous two albums sound like a cat being squashed into a pile of mushy, rotting vegetables
I wonder if those albums were just decoys put out by some fake musicians hired by Stars
Or … or what if it’s the other way around
What if this album was ghostwritten by some...

DEATH TO SHAKYCAM →
This, this, is why I think fight scenes shot in ShakyCam are the worst, and why Jackie Chan is basically my spirit guide.

Stupid question I've never had a chance to ask
I am not personal friends with anybody who wears a turban, and I don’t trust wikipedia for the answer to this: what are turbans?
A piece of fabric that you have to wrap around your head when you want to wear it, similar to tying a necktie or wrapping a scarf?
Something that looks like a head wrap but is actually a hat, pre-wrapped ahead of time, that you just hang on a hat rack and pop on...

Party Postulate #268
Despite what Maxim magazine or your bros in Sigma Alpha Epsilon will tell you, the point at which two ostensibly straight girls start to make out with each other* is the point at which you know you can pretty much just go home. It’s cool, just go home. Have some sleep. There’s nothing anybody else is going to do, really.
* Not even in a bar-star attention-grabby “look at...

I need more controls!
What the shit? Questions answered in the Ask box are auto-posted to Twitter if I have a Twitter account associated with my Tumblr one? I can’t just turn it off on a per-post basis like I do with my other posts? I need to be able to do that!
Other things I need:
To be able to associate a particular Tumblr with a particular Twitter account (I have three Tumblrs associated with what I...

Just checking
Welcome to Thursday.
Things I Thought About Tweeting But Then Didn’t For Some Reason, #5283 in a Series: “I’M-A WARIO; I’M-A GONNA WEEN” (I wasn’t 100% positive I hadn’t actually tweeted that already at some point, is the thing)
This isn’t a plea for attention so much as an honest quality assurance moment: if you’re reading this, consider...

Eagle Uses Sailboat to Show Latest Will Smith... →
There are so many questions about the glorious majesty that is True American Dog News, but first and foremost among them is: where do they get these incredible scoops from? What is their journalistic process? We may never know, America. We may never know.

gifparty:
Every time I think “DEAL WITH IT” gifs have run their course, something happens to make me realize that we’re on year 3 of our 5-year mission at best.

If I remember correctly, bull sharks are basically the only euryhalinic shark species. Which is fine, except for the part where they’re a bunch of assholes.
I like to imagine that this one had been sent on a mission of political assassination by Ocean Master or something, to get revenge on politicians for all the shit we’ve been fucking up in the sea lately.

I have to log these from here on out
I used to only have one or two of these every six months or so, but lately it seems like they’ve been showing up more often. This is disturbing to me. I’m going to start logging them as I have them, just to see how many actually happen. Maybe I’m imagining things?
Last night’s xenomorph dream involved essentially hiding in a room inside a spaceship that looked...
