Women writers like Neal Stephenson, are there any? (1)
permalinkWomen writers like Neal Stephenson, are there any? I love the way his books seem to be such a reflection of what he is interested in and wants to write about, and how he is perfectly willing to take 900 pages to explore whatever he feels like. Like, a lot of other writers would take out that section in Anathem about the folding chairs, or in Cryptonomicon about the cereal, etc. but those are some ...Shared by Polina (24)

Hungry Cat makes me INSANE (1)
permalinkWhy is my cat always hungry? I have an 11 year old indoor Maine Coon cat who is currently driving me to drink. He has always been a needy cat who begs for food and attention, but the last few months have ratcheted his behavior up to insanity. I can't cook food in the house without him climbing onto the counters, meowing incessantly. I can't open the fridge without him trying to climb in and ...Shared by Polina (24)

LP Cover Lover: Music to Sell Valves By (2)

Here, a woman is presented as a valve of some kind, and adorned with buttons emblazoned with double entendres, such as "I LIKE ACID!"

Where can I go to watch Thursday's VP debate in Austin, TX? Normally I loathe debates. However, with Palin involved, Thursday's VP debate will be, how shall I say, different. And I want to be around other people as I watch. Who in Austin is having a VP debate watching event? Bonus points if everyone is there for the same reasons I am.Shared by Polina (24)Contribute comment -

- Simon said: Stallman is always interesting.
- JDAL. said: Cloud computing (or, cloud storage, which is the most obvious cloud computing app) is attractive only when you don't have enough storage space on one of your computers, or if you have piss-poor synchronization utilities. Sync is pretty close to being solved, and storage is already there for 99% of use cases.
