Animals...Seriously, It's All About How Cute They...
The recent tragedy in Sea World brings to light the issue of animal cuteness.  If you think about it objectively, animal conservation/activism/attention seriously boils down to how cute an animal is.  A couple of weeks ago, I posted my somewhat failed attempt at buying discount caviar, and I uploaded a picture of a lumpfish (see below).  Now after looking at this fish, even the most PETA-minded...

The Unexamined Life is Not Worth Living

Wind Farms in England Generate Power and Their Own...
England’s not just forward thinking in nation-conquering and tea-drinking, but they’re pretty ahead of their time when it comes to green technologies.  Being a miserably cold and wind-blown island nation, England recently decided to put experimental wind farms near its shores early last year.

When she’s not on TV or playing video games, she’s deep in her next favorite hobby: putting her cats’ heads in her mouth and smelling their butts. Careful what you wish for fellas…all...

Are you serious?
What the hell could be more important than looking at your baby after you give birth to it?  Facebook, Twitter…good lord, it better not be as vapid as PerezHilton.com.  Doesn’t this go against basic biology? This picture makes me sad and tired.

A Modular Concept Kitchen that Seriously Reduces...
This is still just a concept from a French design agency, and it will probably be prohibitively expensive if/when it does come out, but I do serious want this. It’s annoyingly well thought-out, and I say annoying because the cost/benefit will never stack up against the want/need.  To sum up, I really want this thing. EKOKOOK by faltazi Here’s an instructional video in French...
