Random Wikipedia facts: Cephalopod ink →
“Two distinct behaviours have been observed in inking cephalopods. The first is the release of large amounts of ink into the water by the cephalopod, in order to create a dark, diffuse cloud (much like a smokescreen) which can obscure the predator’s view, allowing the cephalopod in question to make a rapid retreat by jetting away.
The second response to a predator is to release...

Fuck my life →
“Today, I wanted to have a good lunch with my wife before fasting for my surgery which I may not survive, she decided getting her hair cut was more important. I ate alone.”

Children + monsters + Spike Jonze + Arcade Fire + no cgi. Mark my words: I predict “no cgi” is going to be the new cgi.

The straw that breaks the camel's back
Well done, Last.fm.

In all other countries, listening to Last.fm Radio will soon require a subscription of €3.00 per month. There will be a 30 track free trial, and we hope this will convince people to subscribe and keep...

What happens when a town loses its newspaper? →
sparo:
From Time:
What effect do newspaper closings really have on a town? Or a nation? Depending on a person’s reading habits, the answers to these questions range from “It’s the death of democracy!” to “Newspapers? What newspapers?” But with the demise of two major metropolitan dailies, the 149-year-old Rocky Mountain News and the almost equally venerable 145-year-old Seattle...

South by Southwest 2009 MP3 archive →
An obsessive-compulsive music lover’s wet dream. 1300+ fresh, legal, downloadable MP3 filtered by artist, song, album, genre and origin, haiku-esquely reviewed in six words each, 1/5 rating included. Lots of non-indie stuff: jazz, experimental, ambient, electronica, metal. If only for the sake of convenience, you may feel tempting to cherry-pick the 4s and 5s, which is perfectly reasonable....

egoismo:
Hemos hablado con la autora Carmen Pacheco, símbolo de constancia. El año pasado ya se presentó a uno de los premios y fue finalista. Este año, para tentar a la suerte más aún, se ha vuelto a presentar, pero esta vez a los dos, y en ambos ha sido finalista.

February no longer a month →
“Emboldened by their success in declaring Pluto not a planet, the International Astronomical Union determined this week by a close vote that February is too short to be considered a true month. It has, however, been granted the newly created status of “dwarf month.” It shares this dubious distinction with several other calendar time spans, including Labor Day Weekend, Christmas...

What the Watchmen movie could have been →
Oh. My. God. Reading this piece of disrespectful, apocryphal shit, the Watchmen movie they’ve finally come out with seems like a blessing. This was penned by Sam Hamm (Batman, Batman Returns) in 1989 and involves among other things:
a terrorist hold-up of the Statue of Liberty
cancer-free cigarettes patented by Veidt Industries
Dr. Manhattan curing Laurie’s (not tobacco-related)...
