Inside’s evocative soundtrack was recorded using a human skull. Seriously? Yes, seriously. Composer/sound designer Martin Stig Andersen has written a fascinating post-mortem for Gamasutra detailing how he gave Playdead’s game its distinctive, otherworldly sound. Give it a read.

Fortunately you don’t get to phone a friend in a presidential debate.

I haven’t been following Hillary Clinton’s campaign too closely yet, but I’m wondering if her donors have something to do with this? I mean, is it possible that she’s risking losing funding from big donors if she were to, say, readily admit her family’s part in expanding the prison population in the 1990s?

My favorite part of the protest was when they asked him to respond to their concerns and be held publicly accountable, then refused to give him the mic so he could do so.

1. You say Bernie’s not coming at this issue from the “right angle,” then you pretty much make it sound like there is no actual proper angle to come at it from. So, in that case, why pay any attention to the election at all? Why vote? Why even stay in this country when you believe we have a permanently ingrained…

Obama IS center-right.

“as well-meant as they are, they don’t address the fact that even if he wins, there’s still going to be racism and everything that comes with it”

Apparently, I'm the only one who remembers the circumstances around this sketch on account of my giant girl-crush on Page, but the month or so leading up to the show was full of rumors about how Page was a closeted lesbian. As the show drew close, people openly wondered in the media if Page would use SNL as…

Please don't do that. If they revealed that these would be the designs you wouldn't be praising them.

I imagine he's got a pretty amazing immune system, compared to the rest of us, living in our little artificially "sterile" environmental pods.

Why are we empowered when we buy a vibrator, but a man who buys a fleshlight is a 'lonely fuck'?
