dear samwise + mandy,
i took your advice and finally gave true blood a second chance. i still don't particularly like it, but i'm halfway through the first season and i can't stop watching.

Jimmy Fallon said something funny and intelligent

BP wants Twitter to shut down a fake BP account that is mocking the oil company. In response, Twitter wants BP to shut down the oil leak that’s ruining the ocean.

This might have been a better ending

How are you all not talking about Lost right now.

P.s. it sucked.

this needs to happen like....yesterday.

Scientists are beginning tests to see if ultrasound can be used as a reversible contraceptive for men.
Based on early work, University of North Carolina experts believe a blast of ultrasound to the testes can safely stop sperm production for six months.
With a grant of $100,000 from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation they will push ahead with more clinical trials.
The researchers ultimately hope it could offer a new birth control option to couples throughout the world.
Lead researcher Dr James Tsuruta said: "We think this could provide men with up to six months of reliable, low-cost, non-hormonal contraception from a single round of treatment.
"Our long-term goal is to use ultrasound from therapeutic instruments that are commonly found in sports medicine or physical therapy clinics as an inexpensive, long-term, reversible male contraceptive suitable for use in developing to first world countries."
Once the testis has stopped producing sperm and all "sperm reserves" have been depleted, explain the researchers, the man will be temporarily infertile.
Their Grand Challenges Exploration Grant project aims at fine-tuning this technique for maximum effect and safety.

well its about damn time. holler at bill and melinda gates for funding such important, progressive research.
though i can't help but wonder if it would be just as/more difficult to get covered by your insurance company as hormonal birth control is for women.

Why I really hated Lost last night

Why do television and movies constantly demonize the concept of "moving out" or "choosing your own way?" Because that's all Bizarro Locke wanted: to figure out shit for himself.

The only way we know that Bizarro Locke is bad is because Jacob's mom basically said so. So not only is Jacob kind of a dick, but he's also pretty gullible. Hmmmm....

Team Bizarro Locke!

I'm pretty much like this all the time

justin bieber's got nothing on this kid

13 year old sings the shit out of "paparazzi".
the faces of the girls in the background may be the best part about this.
but really, this kid is ridiculous.

Looking back at the age of 80, Ms. Horne said: “My identity is very clear to me now. I am a black woman. I’m free. I no longer have to be a ‘credit.’ I don’t have to be a symbol to anybody; I don’t have to be a first to anybody. I don’t have to be an imitation of a white woman that Hollywood sort of hoped I’d become. I’m me, and I’m like nobody else.”

LOST YOU ARE BREAKING MY HEART!!!!

i can deal with this though:


The producers of ABC's hit drama have shot so much crucial material for the show's hugely anticipated finale that the network has agreed to extend the last episode by an extra half hour.

When the "Lost" finale airs on Sunday, May 23rd, the episode will run from 9 to 11:30 p.m. The overrun will air instead of the local news, with the "Jimmy Kimmel Live: Aloha to Lost" post-finale special remaining at 11:30 p.m. ABC is expected to announce the plan on tonight's episode of Kimmel.

ok so i saw this axe commercial with my mom last night.
first of all, i don't understand the intention of the commercial to begin with. it's not funny, and it doesn't really make sense.
more importantly, i don't really understand how this could be seen as anything but racist.
an attractive black waitress is bussing a table and invites the camera (aka the white male gaze personified) to a party at her apartment. right after she says her address, he notices a white blonde woman on the phone in the booth across from him. she's ending a phone conversation with something along the lines of "yea, i'm fine with seeing other people too", and smiles at the camera.
the screen flashes "what was the address"? and then "wake up and stay alert".

Well if that isn't a convincing argument, I don't know what is.
