Now Listening: M.I.A. – Bad Girls

One of the more ridiculous videos I’ve seen in a while, set to one of the more catchy tunes I’ve heard lately. I’m not usually a huge M.I.A. fan, and I’ve never been struck by an entire album of hers, but I’ve listened to this song something like twenty times today.

EVA Unit-01 Biker Jacket Is Total Dork Couture. I Want.

What’s good in life? How about a fucking EVA Unit-01 themed biker jacket? Hell yeah.

THIS WEEK ON Justified: Harlan Roulette

We start this episode with Raylan going to … wait … Where’s Raylan?   Oh well, he’ll show up.   I guess we’ll pass the time with Ava introducing Limehouse to Boyd.   Obviously these two characters are going to be interacting for the foreseeable future.   The problem for Boyd is he’s relatively weak.   What makes it worse for him is Limehouse knows it.   Boyd tries to come to Limehouse as an equal, proposing they split Mag’s money, and fails.   Perhaps he’ll have better luck next time, as of now, he needs to restructure his crew.

Behold! Winston Churchill’s Dieselpunk Life Pod He Used In Airplanes. Amazing.

A little bit of the old Retro-Future to start your week off. Winston Churchill was a beefy old bastard who wasn’t supposed to fly above 5,000 feet. Given that the motherfucker had to, you know, fly a lot, how’d they get around this little mortality bit? Boom! Life pod in action.

Scientists In California Create Star Matter. What Could Go Wrong?

Scientists in California clearly don’t care about bringing along the end of the Everything with their little experiments. They’ve done gone and replicated matter that can only be found in stars and giant planets. Oh who the fuck am I kidding, maybe it’s completely safe. And pretty rocking.

William Adama. Why? ‘Cause I Said So.

Shoot man, after a long day when I can’t make that existential leap, I ask myself. WWAdamaDo? Soldier on motherfuckers, soldier on. (Maybe also crush a skin job’s skull in and bang Roslin too.)

THIS WEEK ON Justified: Cut Ties

We rejoin Raylan as he wakes up from a slumber that I can only assume encompasses dreams of fighting giants and satisfying women by the dozen.

When last we left Boyd he was cooling in stir.   As he walks over to Dickey, Boyd is told he has a visitor.   As the spot light is put on him, Boyd pockets the shiv and leaves the lunchroom.   Its seems Raylan saw through Boyd’s plan to get locked up to extract revenge on Dickey.   I know I’ve said it before but the reason I love the conflict between these two characters is that they will forever be polite to each other right up until someone is punched or shot.   Then, after the heat of battle, the will go right back to niceties.       I’m not sure if it’s a product of the region they were raised or if its because they grew up together, or both, but for me its one of the main reasons I like the show.

Video: Neil deGrasse Tyson Lays Down America’s Science Decline

Neil is the man, and I’d happily listen to him talk about anything. Here’s him breaking down the decline in American science in the past thirty years.

THIS WEEK ON Justified – The Gunfighter

When we last left Deputy Marshal Raylan Givens he was bruised, battered, and shot.   We pick up season 3 a few weeks later.   Raylan is back with the marshals under limited capacity until he’s fully recovered.   It was painful to see him draw and shoot … and miss.   We’ll see how his injuries will limit him in the future.

Raylan is working on his investigation into what happened with the Bennett’s weed and money since the family was taken down.   Boyd is called into the marshal’s office to fill in some gaps in the aftermath.   After some classic banter between the two we are treated to a fistfight.   Good lord it feels like it’s going to be a good season
