interesting stuff I found online (that you might find interesting too)
Google predicts movie hits; John McTiernan is wasting away in prison for no good reason; why American journalism sucks; and more…
New York Times
what food would you have to have smuggled to you if you didn’t have access to it?
Like how people are smuggling soggy, cold KFC into Gaza at inflated prices…
women’s bodies as public property (on Angelina Jolie’s medical care)
Because celebrity, women’s body issues, women’s health and health care all exist as public phenomena.
Doctor Who thing: US DVD customers get early peek at “The Name of the Doctor”
And yet I can’t seem to get advanced access to the episodes…
women: always Other
Fuck this shit, and shame on Wikipedia.
HBO isn’t dying, so they think they’re winning (on the rampant pirating of Game of Thrones)
I can’t help but recall that thing that Upton Sinclair said about people not understanding something when their salaries depend on their not understanding it…
QOTW: Do you worry that what’s happening in Cyprus could happen where you live?
It’s now clear that corporate bankers must not be impacted or impeded in their business, even if it’s criminal, so why shouldn’t we little people be afraid of being made to pay for their crimes?
bitches (on TV) be crazy
Hollywood simply doesn’t think that sane women can be interesting… because, “clearly,” ordinary sane women are shallow, narcissictic idiots concerned with nothing more than snagging a husband. What’s interesting about that?
important information for visitors to Earth (and other adventures in social networking)
Stuff my followers on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ saw today…
QOTD: What movies or TV shows do you find calming and relaxing?
I find listening to Carl Sagan intone the mysteries of the universe very relaxing, so I do enjoy a rerun of Cosmos quite a serene way to pass an hour or two.
