I can really relate to the Are You Afraid of the Dark “I’m… cold” little boy ghost right about now.

Damn. This is the episode where Melissa Joan Hart played the baby-sitter. There were gold coins in the furnace.

OMG I totally remember this one, and I always say “I’m cold…” and no one knows what I’m talking about.

Blah Blah Blah by Ke$ha (feat. 3OH!3)

I feel so dirty for liking this….

I hate that she’s so fantastic too. Because it’s not ironic like Gaga, it’s legit - but damn it sounds so good.

Please note: I like “tik tok” so much more.

Also, note: She’ll be at Lilith. You know I’ll be dancing.

First place: “One night after a long day of campaigning, when the haters had made my spirits reach a nadir, I looked into Todd’s eyes, which were as blue as the stripes on Old Glory, and too representing truth and loyalty, and he looked back at me with a twinkle of determination which I hadn’t seen since I told him my goal of having another baby in my fifties and naming it Tron, then did I know for sure that I could carry on, like he, and we, have done together all of these years on this long, Iron Dog race of a marriage that is at once grueling and celestial, onerous and majestic.”

The Pogues feat. Kristy MacColl - “Fairytale of New York”

Everyone’s favorite ironic Christmas song to use the word “faggot” as a lyric has been covered a few times! I hope more musicians get over the taboo of using the f-word in a holiday song and record their own versions. (I’m looking at you, Sufjan Stevens.)

Pilate - “Fairytale of New York” (My favorite version!)

Stars - “Fairytale of New York” (Snooze.)

The Scotland Yard Gospel Choir - “Fairytale of New York” (Another fairly straight-forward cover.)

Third Eye Blind - “Fairytale of New York” (hahahaha lol)

OMG THIS SO TOTALLY IS A FAVORITE I CANNOT WAIT TO LISTEN TO EVERY VERSION!

Caps seem to imply sarcasm, but I assure you, they are not meant to.

Strange spiral of light in the skies above Norway.

Now I don’t give this a shred of credibility, but I’m reblogging it solely to point you at this comment:

Stephen Hawking predicted that due to Hawking Radiation, black holes below a certain size must feed or evaporate. What you have just witnessed is the aborted birth of a black hole. Blazar and all.

The LHC broke a new record just hours before this appeared, i would theorize that it spawned a black hole, which traveled through the earth, feeding, before it emerged into our atmosphere, still feeding, and evaporated when it reached the void of space and no longer had matter within the radius of it event horizon to feed upon.

Shut the thing down and bury it, NOW.

Crazy people are why I read the internet. (No one would care if there was a black hole spawned by the LHC. No one would be able to.)

My boyfriend is convinced I need something like this for my ceiling. He might be right. We spend a lot of time in bed with my laptop propped up on our laps or stomaches.

Uganda Considers Anti-Gay Bill

Wed, 09 Dec 2009 10:57:19 -0500

Uganda Considers Anti-Gay Bill:

According to CNN, the bill in question would impose a lifetime prison sentence on anyone caught having gay sex. It would impose the death penalty on homosexuals who have sex with minors, or who have gay sex more than once (because obviously, those things are morally equivalent). It would effectively ban HIV/AIDS prevention education, would imprison those who fail to report homosexual behavior, and, perhaps most disturbing of all, would allow people to be executed for having HIV. The bill even mandates that Ugandans who engage in homosexual sex abroad be returned to Uganda for prosecution.

This has to stop.
