Keep diggin'; next stop Albuquerque5!

My username has never been more relevant than today.

In a perfect world, I'd like to think this band will be playing a concert in front of this majesty.

I think she must have at some level thought about "Cullen" even if it was sub-consciously. It's one of the only clever things in the book.

I spent an hour in a float tank for my birthday this year. I wanted it to be an cosmic lifechanging experience ala a Kathe Koja novel but it was hot, slightly claustrophobic and I fell asleep and woke up with more shoulder pain than I went in with.

I wish we had one of the original io9 ladyface but I'll live.

One for each editor/author would be swell.

I stand by the following as the best Dalek song.

Thank *you* for making a music channel!

You had me at "Fan Fiction Fridays." Welcome aboard.

I miss you already but I look forward to seeing your name on the masthead at Cracked. Please take the Zardoz with you; spread him far and wide.

There was been a huge O-deck shaped hole in my heart all week. I'm very glad we're back together guys!

Gah. Why did I go read that film synopsis? The pull quotes induced some serious nausea over here.

Salo isn't that bad. I watched it in a grad film class. If you've read the Marquis de Sade at all, you know what you're in for.

And the Amanda Knox trial. The articles I read on that case were stunning in how the system is run.

I can understand not wanting to ruin the mystique but having read an awesomely insane and intense breakdown of the film (linked out from Cracked originally: http://collativelearning.com/the%20shining.html) I feel like I like and enjoy the film even more by trying to tease out whether I believe there are layers on…

I think she'd prefer a magnum of Diet Dr. Pepper :)

I love that the banned list is basically a slice of the contemporary canon of great literature. I wonder if there is a list of banned books somewhere online that you can check off ala those lists of 100 Foods to eat before you die.

I don't think region has much to do with it. I live in a small town in the South. Two weeks ago, I took a long walk on a Sunday afternoon. Not that it matters because anyone can be harassed but I was wearing a zip up hoodie, sunglasses and yoga culottes in 95 degree weather. I think I'm pretty but I'm at least 100…

Ahem. As someone with mild rosacea, I can answer this as NO.
