We watched “The Electrical Life of Louis Wain” last night and I wish it spent less time on twee nonsense and more time on Wain’s EXTREMELY AWESOME CAT PAINTINGS.

Franz Ferdinand Condemn IDF's Use of 'Take Me Out' as 'Vile Arrogance' Franz Ferdinand speak out against the IDF's use of their song "Take Me Out" in a propaganda video.

Oh cool. We’ve dragged Franz Ferdinand into an amorphous global military conflagration. Seems like a good omen.

I know at least a dozen people who’ve said this is why they’re not attending this year.

My advice is to relocate it to Canada moving forward.

Many hands make light work.

Well, it’s been nice while it lasted, folks.

I’ll see you all on LiveJournal or something.

The twist? It's all one movie ("Junior 2").

The cover of Rebecca Solnit’s “A Paradise Built in Hell”.

Reading this again for various reasons.

It's basically Moore's closing argument. He's written stuff since, but none of it comes close to encapsulating all of his most intense interests and ideas. It's great, rather than fun.

The audiobook recording is pretty good, but sadly not "Alan Moore growls at you for days on end"-good.

I mean, he DID die on a Monday.

I fully endorse this. Simmons had the worldview of an addled Glenn Beck viewer, but the Hyperion books are extraordinary and feel unlike anything else I’ve ever read.

A wild mashup of cyberpunk, brain teasing time shenanigans, Space Catholicism, and a borderline scholarly obsession with John Keats.

I’m actually pretty agnostic about DST, to be clear. I see the utility of it and think it makes sense in many places. But the hassle of switching things up twice a year probably isn’t worth it in most places.

Imagine trying to roll out something as peculiar as Daylight Saving Time today. You’d be accused of being a woke communism plant trying to disrespect the clock Jesus invented. There would be mass violence.

We’ll never accomplish anything wonky again.

We must come together to ensure we preserve and protect our nation’s precious Flacco reserves.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
