I enjoy bathing in the glory of days of futures past. Check out this broadband ad from 1963.
50 New Exoplanets Found, Including Possibly Inhabitable Super-Earth. Space Geek Swoon.
We can now purvey deep into the cosmos, gobbling up planetary findings like it isn’t any thang. The scientists found these planets using a fancy spectrograph thing far beyond my fat-brained comprehension. Oh yeah, and 16 of these planets are super-Earths. One within its star inhabitable zone. ‘Possibly inhabitable’. Have to love the hyperbole. Whatever though, brah and brahettes, begin your fantasizing.

‘Top Gun’ Being Converted To 3D. Homoerotic Tension You Can Almost FEEL.
If there’s one thing I love about ‘Top Gun’, it’s the film’s ability to get a bunch of sweaty bro-dudes fisting pumping and partaking in what is some of the gayest shit in existence. It’s so sly in its introduction of what is some beautifull defused homoerotic tension that every homophobe in the world is almost ready to rub asses with their repressed unrequited gay crush by the end of it.
Now it’s coming in three-dimensions. It’s only going to be better.
GameStop Has Its Own Tablet Coming, Runs On Android.

Yeah!
Monday Morning Commute: rocket-burns and moonshine dreams
Welcome to the MONDAY MORNING COMMUTE! This is the feature I use as an excuse to showcase the various debris that’ll be keeping my brain-bone lubricated so as to avoid jamming up at the hands of the workweek. Some Mondays, I write a little story beforehand as a creative writing exercise and preface the post with it. On other Mondays, I start the post by jotting down an amusing anecdote
And then there’re those Mondays when I’m so tired that my eyes are burning and I don’t have any goddamn coffee filters so kickstarting my creativity with a caffeine-defibrillator isn’t an option and all I want to do is pass out and wake up in 2013 so that I can laugh at all those fucking doomsayers and tell them that their apocalypse wasn’t even worth being awake for.
Guess what kind of Monday today is.
Quit’yer dinkin’ around, let’s do this.

China’s got it good. They own like 95% of America (rough estimate), and they’re going to use their cheddar to do dope stuff. Like build a museum to comics that is shaped like a comic book speech bubble and expensive as fuck. Ah, to dream.
