"The future is you … probably."

I was talking to somebody about this and I compared this to a lot of interactions I see in the pagan community.  (I know, my religion's flaky, you can all troll me for it as far as I'm concerned.  I think it's flaky too.)  There are a lot of people out there who will get very excited to study with thus-and-such famous

Nres!  Sij hawm rauj!

it's not about heavy from team fortress 2
and this makes me sad.

i don't know how i haven't heard of "pontypool" before
But I'm going to have to screen it for the rest of my Linguistics department, I can tell.

enjoyable and thematically incoherent
I usually just eat up parent-and-long-lost-child plots. It's part of why I dig Fringe so hard. That being said, I'm not adopted, so Todd, what you see when you watch isn't at all what I see when I watch, and I can't grok what goes through your head. (I just have the standard

Now I feel like approximately the only person on earth who didn't like this two-parter. But I don't like River Song (for the reasons someone above mentioned: she knows more about the Doctor than the Doctor does, and I find her resultant smarm completely insufferable). Somehow having someone around cheerfully

i know apple's just covering its ass, but
I wouldn't have heard of this app, ATR (sorry if I live under a rock), or these "riot-causing techniques" unless Apple had censored this app. Thanks to the reporting on the censoring, I know all the sounds I'd need. And I'm an acoustics nerd, so I could whip up these

I discovered "O Superman" by Laurie Anderson the other day. I need to file it away for my upcoming mixtape, Songs to Freak Out Stoners By.

judging by some of the comments here…
…I'm not the only person who felt that this episode was weak (I gave it a C), which is really damned validating.

i really hope
that I wasn't the only person who caught Peter's "You're gonna be fine" to Olivia.

The dancing spacemen look like they're having way, way more fun than poor Ke$ha.

It still completely blows my mind that Thomas Disch wrote The Brave Little Toaster.

I think it's, like, baby-faced, but times a million.

the more i think about this episode
the more I like it. Right now I'm particularly enamored of the time-traveling professor reneging on his godhood enough to not save his wife, but still considering himself divine enough to absolve Walter. Yow.

i have very very high hopes
For the Moffat-run show. I've seen both episodes that have come out so far, and I love them very much. The show feels slower-paced, less rushed, more quiet, more intimate—more British and less American, to be blunt about it. The humor's less broad and more dry. They seem to have asked
