The Philosophical Health Check from The Philosopher’s Magazine. An interesting, short quiz that checks up on inconsistencies (or “tensions”) in one’s beliefs.

Deploying a Trojan Horse today. Those wacky Aussies!

Warner Brothers: today’s worst persons in the world.
Warner Brothers promises, then reneges on, prosthetics for amputees who agree to be extras in film. What scum sucking pigs. Typical fucking Hollywood studios. If a movie ever warranted a complete and utter boycott, this is it.
Why you should think twice before uploading anything to YouTube.
YouTube narc’ed to Paramount lawyers. The internet is not your friend (or a truck).
Funny fact of the day
There is such a thing as a proper Cleveland Steamer. Jokers and Urban Dictionary aficionados please take note.

YouTube nixes 30,000 Japanese videos in the start of what is sure to be referred to as their post-buyout “blows chunks” period.
