xkcd on The Pace of Modern Life →

jtotheizzoe:

We are good at worrying about the future.

Today’s xkcd (which is too long to share here, so click up top) is a superb reminder that people have long been concerned about the degradation of society thanks to our sprint toward tomorrow. the concerns of technology and social progress have been making ostriches out of worrywarts for centuries.

This dovetails nicely with my latest YouTube episode, which takes a look at how our brains deal with attention. We’re surrounded by worriers, telling us that our brains can’t handle the digital age. I think it’s a challenge, but in my video I try to paint a little more of an optimistic picture. 

Because our brains are pretty awesome.

Besides, the future is an inevitable result of the passage of time. Where else are we supposed to go? We have no choice but progress.

AHAHAHA
Perpetually laughing over the fact that “real gamer/comic book nerd” males keep insulting women for cosplaying things they’ve never even heard of 
who’s the “fake geek” now, fuckers?

BULLYING IS BULLYING NO MATTER WHO IT COMES FROM.

IT JUST HURTS A FUCKLOAD A LOT MORE WHEN ITS COMING FROM PEOPLE YOU TRUST

FUCK OFF.

Microsoft's chief of interactive entertainment, Don Mattrick admits the xbox one was a "flop" →

OH SHIT

IT HAPPENED

omg! he really admits it, about time.

There are times when, as a businessman, you’ve gotta admit to your mistakes and failures. The next step after that is learning from your mistakes and planning to do better in the future. Just like anything else in life, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.

I’m sure Microsoft will bounce back in about 3 or 4 years with a bigger and better video game console, just as long as they realize exactly what went wrong. (*cough*tv*cough*, *cough*superduperpiracyparanoia*cough*) I’d happily buy it.

Until then, let’s see what the gaming market does with a cable box equipped with mandatory (possible) spyware, lol. I’m excited to see what the hacking culture does with it.

I was bored so I went through the Oglaf archives and assembled a collection of all the Grier comics that were most like me.

Fun is a Filthy Parasite.
