5 MINUTES

Poems, doodles, short stories, reflections, rants, and anything else that comes to mind, each done in about five minutes. Also some other things.

Don't mind the insanity.

The Art of Miss Takes (http://artofmisstakes.tumblr.com/),
which contains more serious work but may
occasionally overlap with this one.


Any Questions?

More Facts on Psychofacts :)

I’m sure they remember people who mistreated them too.
Oh well. Psychofactz has said stupider things.
sigh.

The American public feels most comfortable with the mythical Indians of stereotype-land who were always THERE. These Indians are fierce, they wear feathers and grunt. Most of us don’t fit this idealized figure since we grunt only when overeating, which is seldom. Custer Died For Your Sins, Vine Deloria, Jr.

So I was peer editing some essays today and I kept getting distracted by the letter forms of Times New Roman. Particularly the “t”. The things typography has done to me, now whenever I read a book it’s just me sitting and wondering, “I wonder what font that this? It’s not Baskerville ─ it might be Garamond. Oh lordy it is not Times New Roman; that lowercase “a” screams Garamond.” This was happening as I was reading Middlesex and my lord did it bother me. The art world meets the English world ─ a horrible affair.
The bottom meme is the Art Student Owl.

This… this is so true.

Fun guy chillin’ in South American rainforest finds plastic-eating fungi
Seriously, though this is kind of a big deal. Know that big problem we have? You know, the one involving a crapload of used plastic hanging around in landfills with nowhere to biodegrade for a couple million years? Well, Jonathan Russell might’ve solved that problem. See, Russell and his fellow Yale students went to Ecuador, where they found a new kind of fungus they’re calling Pestalotiopsis microspora. Big deal, you’re thinking. Anyone can find fungus anywhere! Well, something his fellow students found out after the fact is that this fungus can live on a diet of polyurethane alone — and even crazier, it doesn’t even need air to do so! In other words, we could potentially put it at the bottom of a landfill and cover it with plastic, and it would do the rest of the work. This might be game-changing if it works as advertised.

quitequiteblue asked: When do you return to me, my darling?

Threefold two days and another cycle of the sun will see me returned to the Land of Mary and dreary weather. I will have flown upon the metallic wings of a great machine, roaring and tearing through the sky, traveling through space and time to bring me home to you and my dearest hound.

Returning promptly, yours most sincerely,
