Tumblr just turned on their first revenue stream. Oh snap.

The keyboard line in this song absolutely kills me.

I had a nice little nap on that beach towel.

And the gold medal for most awesomest Olympic uniform goes to… the Norwegian curling team!

Spotted outside of 1 Oak.

If I ever have to fight a dragon, this’ll be my soundtrack.

Lauren Conrad publishing a book is like Stevie Wonder staging a photography exhibition.

Massive Attack always opens their albums with something epic. Wait for the drums to kick in at 3:19.

Just launched Facebook integration for CollegeHumor.

New delivery from Amazon. We’re going to need a bigger boat bookshelf.

This song is smooooooth. Mashup of Wu-Tang’s “Save Me Dear” and The Beatles’ “You Really Got a Hold on Me” from the very excellent Enter the Magical Mystery Chambers.

Still waiting for someone to make A Blaffair to Rememblack.

The video makes a good point, and then completely destroys its own argument with the closing line:

…turn your ire on a goverment that is vast and growing, and helps or hinders corperation based on politcal lobbying rather than marketplace forces.

So the best way to fight a government that is beholden to special interests is to allow those groups to spend more on behalf of candidates?

The limitations on political advertising are not unique. Other forms of advertising are currently censored in the name of the public good - when’s the last time you saw a cigarette ad on TV? Corporations and other organizations don’t have the right to vote, so it’s a stretch to frame this as a free speech/civil rights issue.

Conventional wisdom holds that money wins elections, with campaign donors essentially voting with their dollars. Until that changes, only those who actually have the right to vote should be able to vote with their dollars.

Had this done to me by a disorganized Chicago-based VC that I won’t make the mistake of naming. It was by far the lowest low on the startup roller coaster.

This song makes me want to wiggle my butt.
