If you give a damn about the quality of the work at all, every other sentence means a pause for research. You write the word “steel” and then you have to stop, and wonder: “Is steel strong enough to do this? Wouldn’t they have something better than steel in the future? Where is the future of the steel industry heading?” Six hours later, you’re Googling...
Why Not Tumblr →
Gina Trapini explains just why I’ve never been able to fully get behind this whole Tumblr thing. I like it, but until they offer a self-hosted tumblr, it’s a big ol’ “pass’ from me.

Robots of Color (in Disguise)
So lately I’ve been watching a lot of Transformers, and was recently struck with this. When growing up, I thought of certain autobots as being black guys.. like, if they were human, they would be black dudes.
Obviously Jazz was one of these, he was voiced by genuine black person Scatman Crothers (RIP). This was somehow paid tribute to/made fun of in the 2007 movie by having Jazz sound...

countcenci:
You think they should be meaningful, you think they should be pretty, you think it’d be wise to invest your money in tattoo removal technology because in twenty years all these hipster idiots are going to come to their senses and realize that a shark wearing Ray-Bans and surfing the waves of your calf muscle is not conducive to, say, convincing your bank to let you take out a second...

This is a Walther P-38. It was the service pistol of the German Weirmacht and was originally introduced in 1939. It is still in service today.
This is Megatron. He transforms into a toy Walther P-38 and was originally released in 1984. It has been reissued several times since.
Due to vastly differing definitions of the word “safety,” one of the above items is difficult to obtain...

You need to stop. You need to stop automatically dumping your feeds from one account into another. Look, I know it’s tempting. New service, not sure how you’ll keep up with the ever...

oh, you're with CoCo now, are you?
So of course the thing that’s got everyone all a-buzz (other than that earthquake, but that’s, like, a bummer) is this business with Conan O’Brien and how much of a testament to how we- I guess as a generation?- are “about” lots of stuff, but can’t be bothered to DO much of anything, even watch TV.
Everyone on this “I’m with CoCo” bandwagon...
