yendi1. The gods have heard my prayers: Anna Faris to play Linda Lovelace.
2. ID/Creationist Bingo!
3. A former co-worker is one-half of the latest round (16!) of Henry Jenkins's ongoing Gender and Fan Culture series. Good stuff.
4. Airport screeners track what you read. Lovely.
5. As for the ongoing, "what to do with #756 debate," I voted A. Yes, really. I despise Bonds, and I don't doubt he used performance enhancers. But this is baseball history; I don't want to see Ty Cobb's cleats covered in graffiti because someone's pissed at the fact that he was a racist (definitely), murderer (rumored), or bettor on baseball (confirmed) . Likewise, the ball should be in the hall as is, not defaced.
6. The Vulture, as horrified as we all are by the notion of Tarantino making a "sex movie," suggests ten directors who might do a worse job. Alas, they're wrong about most of them, any of which I'd see before Quentin tries porn. But #1 cracks me up.
7. In search engines usage stats, dog bites man.
8. Facebook fails to learn a thing from Livejournal's attempt to ban breastfeeding pictures.
9. New Hello Kitty Vibrators (NSFW, of course). Or, as![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
feste_sylvain notes, Hello Kitty Wac-a-mole.
10. Finally, this is an interesting forum at Freakanomics on the future of the music industry.
