It's officially time for a sundries post, because I have several billion windows open with interesting things to share, and I should fix that.
*J. Cannibal's Feast of Flesh is This Saturday night, in Davis Square. It's gonna be horror burlesque, and an alien themed rock band, and generally a really wonderful time of things.
*The UN has appointed a contact for aliens. This is...kinda rad, really!
*Here is a pretty crazy example of the fact that we are living in the future now. It's a bluetooth-esque headset that can record up to five hours of video/audio, and plausibly live-stream it to the web. Crazy stuff, for a lot of reasons, but possibly the thing that gets me most (and I recognize I am hardly the one to comment on this) is the idea of just...reliving moments, over and over and over again. We need to not do that, so that we can go out and have more moments, yeah?
*Rach linked a pretty well written introduction to privilege. Good for people who have no idea what I'm talking about when I start babbling about the kyriarchy.
*So...Cracked.com did an article on something, and they linked to this site that will sync audio and video from two different YouTube links, and the specific example was remixing the video of a Japanese McDonalds ad with the audio of an anti-Ground Zero Mosque1 ad. The result is truly bizarre, and somewhat mesmerizing.
*Mek found a collection of gorgeous photographs starring a model and a skeleton. Go look, they're lovely!
*And last link for today, Shakesville would like to offer instructions on How to fuck. In case that somehow wasn't clear.
Last but not least, Dog restarted the saying nice things about people meme, and so Comment here and I will reply with something good about you. Yay!

MOOP!
1: Which is, say it with me, not at ground zero, and not a mosque. Thank you.
ETA: OHMAN! So, 11points.com, which I've been following for ages now, just released the newest list --11 Incarnations of Doctor Who, Ranked by Handsomeness. I disagree mightily with the fact that Tenny is not number one, (and indeed, with several other thoughts) but I'm amused that it exists.
