I've been saving up a couple of things to post. No, that's a lie. I've been meaning to post about a couple of things but keep finding other things to do. So I'm going to do bullet points instead for the sake of brevity. I might expand upon them later.
- Flickr is playing silly buggers with Violet Blue's photo stream.
This doesn't affect me much since I use Flickr infrequently at best, but provides yet another example of social networking sites screwing up when it comes to censorship.
[Edit]: Some people complaied that Violet's site isn't Work Safe. I'm semi sorry for not warning you (be thankful this isn't warrenellis.com).
- Modern parents are wrapping their kids in cotton wool (figuratively speaking).
We knew this already, of course, because the world is Much Worse than it was in my day (i.e. around 1991). Strangely, my friends and I managed okay. But the media must be right, mustn't it? - The Bible has been attacked as "obscene" in Hong Kong (via Warren Ellis ).
I'll be honest: this one just amuses me. - Wormwood, Gentleman Corpse looks, and is generally, amazing.
More on this and Sandman and graphic novels in general to come. - Cool things are coming for django_xmlrpc, including some excellent work by Reza Mohammadi. Well, I think they're cool anyway.
- Oh, and I set a date for starting Novel-the-Second. Isn't that exciting?
