By way of Lucretius: “Our award-winning series transforms timeless rock songs into beautiful instrumental lullabyes.” They’ve got a huge list of albums. I’m looking at at least one of you out there with a weakness for xylophone.
…was the Tunguska explosion in Russia.
If you’re fond of tinfoil-hat/crackpot theories, there’s some fun reading to be done related to this event, most especially (in my opinion) in regards to how Tesla may have caused it.
Alternately, “ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG DIABLO 3 OMG OMG-” until I pass out from hyperventilating like a fangirl.
Gameplay videos one and two. Official site is in the link, but I haven’t been able to get it load yet.
Oh, man. Please don’t fuck this up, Blizz. We have been waiting so damn long.
By way of dG: “Without a doubt, the Lego brick storage buildings were the most impressive part of my visit to Lego. When I first saw their 65.6-foot high ceilings, with multiple giant robots going up and down retrieving boxes full of bricks, I felt like I entered the Matrix.”
Szabolcs Horváth, Tamás Diószegi, Róbert Stürzenbaum, and Norbert Zakó Norbert play Toccata and Fugue in D Minor. Trombones are one of my least favourite instruments, typically, but this makes me reconsider…at least for the duration of the video.

It would appear that the Fabulous Boymeat and I are either children or an entire family, because that’s who Boom Blox is supposed to be fun for. We picked it up a couple days ago, and have played it every evening since. It’s Jenga meets Breakout meets the simple love of throwing things at other [...]

This shouldn’t be post-worthy — I mean, that’s what seeds are supposed to do, once you’ve plant them — but my thumb is more black than green. About the only things I can’t kill are my mother’s Mystery Green Plant(tm) and my jade plant — which, upon checking Wikipedia for a link, I discover I’ve [...]
“Radiohead held an online contest to remix ‘Nude’ [...] I grouped together a collection of old redundant hardware, and placed them in a situation where they’re trying their best to do something that they’re not exactly designed to do, and not quite getting there.”
