Just read this thing from wonkette. They link to the whole article, but I think they summarize it quite nicely

weird science

Is there anything more exciting than the elusive giant squid? I don't think so. And the more I learn about them, the more fascinating they become. For instance, did you know, they have like, MASSIVE penises? Like, really massive. And that they dispense their precious fluids from said member with the force of "a fire-hose"?

Just read the story.

deer, antelope etc.

this is pretty cool. from boingboing. no great revelations or anything, and it's kind of a fallacy to believe that everyone could live even this way sustainably (in a lot of ways density is best) but it's a start

just in case you haven't seen it

this is David Sedaris delivering a pizza.

day of mourning

Not a lot to say today, but I've been thinking lately about animalshaveproblemstoo.com. I was briefly obsessed by it, and it was part of my morning work routine back at STA. I'd check it everyday and giggle, and maybe email it to some friends, and further convince myself that I was in love with it's creator. But I left that job and not being in front of a computer all day lead me to forget about my deep and true love for him and his doodles. I still have the Yeti cartoon as my desktop wallpaper.

So I've been thinking about it again lately, and I went back to see what I'd missed this last year. I'm saddened to inform you all that animalshaveproblemstoo is on indefinite hiatus. He called it that. It doesn't look indefinite. From the note it seems pretty clear that we can't expect any more of the hi-jinx of those irascible hamsters and anti-semetic kittens.

I can't say I blame him. It must've been tough toward the end. The good news is that he's writing a novel! And will presumably put his time toward more productive ends.

Good-bye animalshaveproblemstoo. You were too beautiful for this world.

omg omg omg

I thought I couldn't get more excited about this but have you seen it? Have you?


Dave Eggers and Spike Jonze making a Where the Wild Things Are movie is (I hope) a sure thing. Now if we could just convince that 300 douchebag Zack Snyder to lay his hands off of Watchmen.

Monday again. Heading out to class for a bit but thought I'd first share this video saw at Idolator. It's all kinds of adorable. ABBA, Andy Gibb and Olivia Newton-John are just sitting around, all realaxed and soft focused, singing some Beach Boys songs. I've got some ABBA stories that I'll save for a later date, but things to note in this video: Andy Gibb is actually kind of cute (weird!), ON-J on the mother-fuckin snare!, and ABBA sings opera (not that surprising really).




That's today on the internets. GOOD-BYE!!!!
