Oxygen Molecules Discovered In Space For First Time! Frak Space Helmets!…Right?
Oxygen molecules have been discovered in space for the first time! This explains why the Silver Surfer has always been buzzin’ around the cosmos wearing nothing but his birthday suit. Right? That’s totally how it works. Oxygen in space means no space helmets, dongs out! No? You’re certain it’s not?

Missouri State Professor Gets Slaughterhouse-Five Banned In Local Schools.
Ah. There’d been a good amount of time since I heard the tale of some uppity dickbag or dickbagette who went and got a perfectly outstanding book banned from a school district. Perhaps it’s my liberal Northeastern upbringing, but I’m surprised this book was the latest casualty.
Slaughterhouse-Five? So it goes.
Grant Morrison Sings A Song John Lennon Gave Him. In A Magic Ritual.
There’s a moment in The Invisibles where John Lennon speaks to King Mob in some sort of magical trance. While I knew that the comic was based on Grant Morrison’s own life and experiences, apparently Morrison really did commune with the deceased musician. Who taught him this song, which he recently played for the first time at Meltdown Comics.
Hit the jump for the song. God I love Morrison.
THIS WEEK ON True Blood: I Wish I Was the Moon
Last night’s episode of True Blood was an obvious homage to Shakespearean notions of the Forest. A world filled without rules, which character depart into to exercise their darkest desires. Without the constraints of society, in the comforting sanctity of trees and creaks and shit, vampires and faeries can fuck to their heart’s content. Balls-swinging, butt-bumpin’ mossy bark grindin’ fucking.
‘Green Lantern’ Sequel To Be Edgier, Darker. Can It Also Exist…Less?
I should have known that Green Lantern would make enough money to get a sequel. The movie was raw ass. Not offensive, maddening, sickening bullshit like Transformers 3. Rather it was unforgettable. A flaccid romp through a CGI nightmare. Fuck that movie, and fuck that it is getting a sequel.
Darick Maasen Creates A Taxidermied Koopa Paratroopa. Hell Yeah.
Enlarge. | Via.
Drink deep in the wonders and horrors of taxidermy. Darick Maasen used a set of testicular fortitude and artistic skills that I do not wield to put forth this beautiful abomination. A koopa paratroopa made amazingly literal. No wonder Mario has to do mushrooms to mess with these motherfuckers. No wonder at all.
Breaking Bad: Open House
“Open House” is a perfect example of why Breaking Bad is so strong and why the writers should remain so damn confident. Bryan Cranston is barely in this one – we open with his furious reaction to the CCTV cameras in the lab, he bickers a bit with Skyler and Saul, and then finally celebrates the purchase of the car wash with a $370 bottle of champagne. All in all I think it makes up five minutes of the episode. The rest is given to Skyler, Hank, and kleptomaniac Marie.

The NASA Goddard Space Light Center put out this gorgeous time-lapse video. Behold Discovery as its docked to the International Space station, orbiting our Glorious Blue Rock. Set to some classic music, it’s pretty like woah.
