Turtles All The Way Down

1:33PM - First things first:

I am trying to plan a trip to PAX this year, and am wondering if anyone would be willing to donate floor/couch space. Facebook friends, sorry for the cross-post.

1:48AM - Anon Delivers

Final results for the Time 100:

 

4:34PM - David Willis explains Easter to his hamster.

from shortpacked 

1:17AM - Fuck Watchmen, Japanese Spider-Man is where it's at.

11:19AM - sometimes sundays make me sad and wistful

6:06AM

i now have the entire first season of "parker lewis can't lose." there is only one word capable of describing this: coolness.

2:28AM - relevant to your interests

1) You can find an Xbox 360 at circuit city for the following prices: Arcade-$150; Refurbished-$190; Standard-$225; Elite-$299.

2) It has come to my attention that some people have not read Neil Gaiman's brilliant short story, "A Study In Emerald." Maybe you don't know about it? That's the only reason not to have read his take on Lovecraft/Conan Doyle. If these names don't excite you, well, you're probably beyond hope. Story exists online, free, here. Go.

3) Nerdy music videos follow. One comics related, one Star Trek.





I accidentally saw Nerf Herder play at Quark's Bar near the Star Trek Experience in Vegas. Fuck them so hard for closing that thing.

11:39AM - Counter-programming

I hate football. A friend of mine is having a party, and I'm going, but I have zero interest in the game. Here are the gayest things I could find at short notice, so that I can flip back here and find stuff that is intentionally homoerotic, rather than incidentally homoerotic. Also, Erasure=Win.

""Those of us who have looked to the self-interest of lending institutions to protect shareholders’ equity, myself especially, are in a state of shocked disbelief." -Alan Greenspan

So, even famous objectivists reject objectivism now? Aww...what do you think of that, Mr. A?

8:03PM - the phrase

"potential adversarial use of Twitter" warms my heart for some reason.

The scenario described below makes me uneasy, but probably not for the same reason it makes the writers uneasy:

"Scenario 2: Terrorist operative 'A' has a mobile phone for Tweet messaging and for taking images. Operative 'A' also has a separate mobile phone that is actually an explosive device and/or a suicide vest for remote detonation. Terrorist operative 'B' has the detonator and a mobile to view 'A's' Tweets and images. This may allow 'B' to select the precise moment of remote detonation based on near real time movement and imagery that is being sent by 'A.'"

Um...wait, what?

1:30PM - this is like porn to me

4:09AM - "facts"

"reliable sources"

This is, btw, the same asshole who founded the anti-Kerry veteran organization. Along with Andy Martin, source for Hannity's smear job on Obama on Sunday, he's been spreading the "Obama's really a Muslim" hype.

11:43PM - even i'm not sure how i find this shit

i can't even think of a good tag for this

9:46AM - fuck.

3:01AM - feelin' post-y 2

Hey Oprah, what's the message board say about their penis level?
