#25: you are correct.

#23: "a strategy that made worlds more sense."

You are incorrect. Or correct. I don't know. I'd never trust any motherfucker that makes sense. Remember, tis an ill wind that blows no minds.

Maps: Norway vs. Sweden (Learning America Smarter)

February 8, 2008 12:17pm

They left out my favorite Swedish export - crustcore. Sweden, Japan, and Minneapolis are numbers 1, 2, and 3 for greatest crust. To be fair, though, Norwegian metalheads fucking burn down churches. So that's pretty badass.

Taxonomy of regional pizza styles

January 25, 2008 1:02pm

there's a pizza place called ha ha's in yellow springs, OH, home of the notorious antioch college. rumor has it that long ago, you could order a pizza with mushrooms and receive a pizza with [i]special[/i] mushrooms for an extra fee. it doesn't seem too unlikely a story. couldn't find anything on google about it, but i'll keep looking.

Didn't expect to see any comments about Columbus, OH, let alone several. Someone is making a documentary about Columbus pizza, and there's an amusing discussion on the punk/diy forums about it.

Mathematics of waiting for the bus

January 23, 2008 1:01pm

i ride the bus all the time, and this is all very true. however, there's also the "fuck it, i'm just walking" factor. this tends to play out when cold, restless, or drunk.

Podcast of Bruce Sterling's HACKER CRACKDOWN has concluded

January 14, 2008 2:58am

audioanarchy has a great collection of various anarchist books, essays, and pamphlets. great for driving. it'd be nice to compile a bunch of free readings of kooky kinda stuff and link out to all the various sites. i might get on that.

Topless woman in park used as bait in police arrest

January 2, 2008 3:17pm

Why would you say rotten things about Ohio?
Arawak City
(formerly Columbus, OH), is awesome. ComFest and the abundance of toplessness are just two of the wonderful things about it. Cops always ruin fun, though. Hate 'em. A few years back, one of the undercovers that was assigned to watch the anarchists got busted for selling confiscated weapons and drugs.

Anyway, total entrapment. Fuck clothes. More public nudity plz.

this is definitely the best episode yet. but what's up with taketv? even that tiny tiny commercial annoys me. better than sliced bread? i need food every day, but i'd live fine if tv and internet access died tomorrow(ow).

RU Sirius's two proposals

November 29, 2007 12:06am

I posted a comment on the last article about this, but it didn't really say anything interesting.

Anyway, my thoughts about this are that I'm pretty skeptical of any kind of call to action that contains outdated ideas like political parties, or petitioning one's master for more rights. "Democracy" always makes me cringe when it's not thoroughly explored and dissected. The idea of an alternative currency has always seemed really unimaginative and fraught with peril. The juxtaposition of these ideas next to calls to organize anti-authoritarians doesn't sit right with me.

It's not just these words, but the overall tone of the calls. It just seems like the same kind of thing I've seen over and over. I like RU, but I don't see any of this going anywhere.

One thing that I think is interested is the increasing influence of anarchist thought on liberals, as opposed to Marxist-Leninist thought that ruled thirty years ago. You can see this all over - I think the best example is the whole Horizontalism thing. I haven't read the book, but it's been summed up to me as being heavily influenced by anarchist thought, but more interested in building counter-institutions than smashing hierarchy. It's still better than Lenin, and I'm definitely glad that things are progressing towards challenging the very idea of authority.

Miro 1.0: the free and open future of video on the net

November 14, 2007 11:23am

yeah, it's a resource hog for me, especially because i'm a scrub and got an old ass machine. i can't even watch videos in the player; i have to wait until the download's finished and open it in VLC independently.
