If you think the news should be a dispassionate list of the day's events, then you're in the right place; it's my attempt at a blog. Yes, it is sub-standard.
I am an (un)accomplished acoustician and currently loving it, despite the occasional working time.
Also, I never fully complete my to-do list for the day. Maybe someday?

People die every day - whether it’s from getting shot just for standing up for the rights, from hunger, etc… and no one really cares. But then a celebrity dies, and all of a sudden it’s a huge deal and people can’t stop talking about it. It basically shows what people care more about.

I should just buy an island and move now.

The difference is that if a celebrity dies it’s actually important.

Who cares about Iran and the deepening recession?

How come?

How come?

The Young Turks is an excellent show responding to pretty much everything in the media, including the media itself. This is probably the best video of theirs I’ve seen. I think my favourite thing about the whole show is the male anchor. Watch a few videos and you’ll see what I mean.

This is the Internet, where we screw each other over for a jolt of satisfaction. There are peons and lulz lizards; trolls and victims. There’s losers that post shit they think matters, and other losers telling them their shit does not matter. In this situation, we are both of these parties, because we’re fully aware that every single person that reached this final sentence just wasted a few moments of their time.
