• Commented on Advisor: My husband has a virtual girlfriend
  A childhood friend of mine just turned 32 this week. […] She only recently moved out of her parents' place and started her first relationship: A girlfriend she met online and who's equally obsessed with the same fandom. Who's job...
• Commented on Advisor: My husband has a virtual girlfriend
  Yurie: If there was a boy version, I think most women would be able to clearly distinguish between real life and in-game life. I have celebrities I like, too, but then I also have a husband. And they're totally separate....
• Commented on They Shoot Porn Stars, Don't They? Susannah Breslin on recession and adult biz
  The future of porn is user-to-user. I know, I'm part of it. Let me tell you about a little website called Furaffinity. It's a place full of furry art. Artists of all skill levels drawing it, writers posting stories on...
• Commented on Please release me: <em>Brutal Legend, A Boy and his Blob, Machinarium, Gridrunner Revolution</em>
  Gridrunner: Revolution is the best twenty bucks I've spent in a long time. I suspect I'm gonna be pulling that one out every so often for years after I've beaten it. Admittedly I'm a total Minter fangirl since the c64...
• Commented on Van Arno exhibition “A Change of Skin” at Corey Helford Gallery in LA
  Hooray! A gallery show of one of my favorite fantasy kinks!...
• Commented on Irate Chinese gamers block re-launch of classic game by blockading the gates to its cities
  I know that the real solution is in the economic/game design/social sphere... but I can't stop thinking that this is why being able to pass through other players in a MMORPG is a really good idea....
• Commented on Ye shall receive: <em>M.U.L.E.</em> remake in development, iPhone version to follow
  waitwaitwait, "Dan"? Admittedly Bunten's gender transition was not a major success, by her own admission, but she seemed to be using a female identity until the end of her life. This press release, and the entire site, is completely ignoring...
• Commented on Sita Sings the Blues sourcefiles online
  I am really glad to see her walking the "free culture" walk! This is where a lot of proponents of Creative Commons as an analogy to open source seem to stop, just saying "yeah it's okay for you to remix...
• Commented on Rome in a Day Project: 3D reconstruction from Flickr-found photos
  This is awesome....
• Commented on HOWTO use physics to beat "how many candies in the jar" games
  @4, his t-shirt is Hunter S. Thompson merchandise.: http://gonzostore.com/...
• Commented on 2009 Gathering Of The Juggalos Infomercial
  God damn most of you people are sour. You're looking at an entire subculture having a major shindig and pissing all over it. This is their Burning Man, their Worldcon, their Jazz Fest, their Woodstock. Weird goth circus rap ain't...
• Commented on Homemade AT-AT loft bed
  The photos at the end of the kid in a Darth Vader costume in front of it are awesome. Next step: painting the kid's room the steely blue of Hoth skies. *grin*...
• Commented on What your dad had instead of email scammers
  I guess you never went to a science fiction con in the seventies or eighties. You could always count on seeing the one guy in the dealer's room with two or three tables full of buttons with clever sayings. Probably...
• Commented on Beautiful, sustainable, *glowing* Penny Arcade conference table
  Damn, that is lovely....
• Commented on World's Greatest Internet Freakout Contest (win a microwave)
  That poor kid has way too much testosterone in his system. Puberty sucks....
• Commented on Crudely streamlined Honda Civic reduces drag
  Initially I built the aero mods in aluminum bar, Coroplast, and clear vinyl and then as they proved themselves, rebuilt them in the stronger and more permanent aluminum monocoque and Lexan, using construction techniques common on homebuilt aircraft. [...] So...
• Commented on Video Gallery: The Humanimal Kingdom
  Not to knock furries, but there's a big difference between putting on a fuzzy suit and adding prosthetics and silicone to alter the bone structure of your face. While there is a predominance of big cartoony "mascot"-style costumes in the...
• Commented on One-of-a-kind Star Wars vinyl toys for kids' charity
  "Mighty Muggs (donated by Hasbro)" Is this a sign of the impending uncoolness of "urban vinyl?"...
• Commented on Abandon all ware: Bethesda release <em>Elder Scrolls II</em> as free download
  Oh, wow, I hadn't heard about Boxer. Maybe now I can actually try some of the things my friends say are the classic games I missed by never having a DOS machine without trying random DOSBox configurations....
• Commented on The genius of Disney Imagineer Rolly Crump
  Those are pretty awesome! He's definitely part of the same vibe that was going around the studio's designers at the time, but leaning more towards scratchy lines (I wanna say this makes him more VIP-like than, say, Blair or Kimball,...
• Commented on Does the 13" Mac Laptop deserve its Pro designation?
  I consider myself a "pro" - I make my living with art, and I use my laptop to do most of that art. I have never used any of the ports on my machine except USB. And the headphone jack...
• Commented on The Whistling Island of La Gomera
  I watched this yesterday and it showed up in my dreams last night. Cool....
• Commented on Make a Frabjous
  Oh, man, I just spent all damn day making one of these out of paper and tape. Gah. Well, it was a gloomy overcast day that would've made it hard to get anything useful done anyway. Also, I should warn...
• Commented on Jabba the fursuit
  Or you could skip the "Jabba" part and use this as part of a cock transformation scene....
• Commented on Khaan! The Greatest Syllable Ever Told

• Commented on Flamed Cars
  Oh, man, I just spent like an hour looking through Hot Rods & Custom Stuff's build logs. I never would have imagined myself being fascinated by this but all the process involved...!...
• Commented on Offworld PSA: Nintendo's <em>Rhythm Heaven</em> iTunes visualizer is amazing
  Runs on my five-month-old Macbook Pro... when I turn off Little Snitch. If Little Snitch is on then I get a fraction of a second of it asking what to do about the connection this thing wants to make (what...
• Commented on Danger Mouse's EMI-killed CD will be released as a blank CD-R, just add download
  So why does nothing turn up when I search for "dark night of the soul" on Pirate Bay, NowTorrents, or gPirate? Put up or shut up, mister alternative distribution method mashupper - get that "leak" out before you release your...
• Commented on Books about (or at least by) weird but interesting people
  Damn, that essay by Kirn was depressing. Everyone depicted in it seemed like such a shallow asshole. Narrator included. College is such a blur; I can't remember who I was during that time in my life. I'd like to think...
• Commented on Was 1971 the best year to be born a geek?
  I was born in 1971 and I do not think it was the best year to be born a geek. Because every year is pretty cool to be born an obsessive neophile. If there isn't rapid technological change going on...
