Best bouncy castle ever!
This is my solution to seeing in the dark.

And it's not even secret!

This needs to be the last image...
I'm glad I'm not alone in thinking this show is going from bad to worse.

The characters are so unbelievably dumb I'm surprised they can survive being bit by an ant, let alone survive a zombie horde.

In fact, the most believable part of the entire show is that there are zombies running about.

Otherwise I can't suspend my disbelief about anything that happens in the show.

Ok, this isn't really about milk but about cats, and they're linked...

There's this crazy scientist Jaroslav Flegr who's been working in seclusion on researching Toxoplasma gondii which is a parasite found in cat shit and how it makes you crazy.

For years, he's been ignored, but recently more and more people are looking into his research!

I find my age, income, and occupation works incredibly well to kill a woman's sexual desire.
Here's the thing that gets me about this continuing story...

If this was an actual breach, like the Sony hack, like the Gawker hack, like any major hack in the last few years, why haven't the hackers been actively gloating about it?

I'm noticing the same thing. Slightly different because I'm in a different country, but the effect is the same.

Mostly because it costs money to text or phone.

You can facebook from work or school or home for "free".

This is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen.

Thank you Annalee, and thank you Charlie Brooker!

(spoilers ahead)
I thought the second one was certainly the most auto-biographical for Brooker. The speech about the vapidness of those "find a star!" shows is lifted almost word to word from his columns and TV specials.

Even the outcome of the episode is true to Brooker's life. Like the main character, Brooker has "sold out to the man", as it were, appearing on the BBC and Ch4, and in the Guardian. But of course, that allows him the money and freedom to make shows like this.

Absolutely brilliant!

Having grown up in Australia, a phobia of spiders and snakes IS definitely a survival mechanism and not irrational.

Even the smallest ones can kill you within a few hours of being bit, and that's if you notice it...

I'm not scared of spiders, but I will kill any I don't immediately recognise as non-dangerous.

Why do people have phobias? Because shit is scary!
I'm paraphrasing my last comment to someone who said this:

To join kotaku (or IGN, or RPS, or io9, or any other website)

Read.

Read everything you can - and not just about games, but culture in general. Absorb everything you can, develop positions on the topics you care about...

Then write.

Start a blog. Post to twitter and facebook. And keep writing your fucking ass off, even when you're so sick of writing you never want to sit at a type writer again.

Maybe not in the USA, but you can bet your ass places in Europe and Australia will take the suggestions seriously.
I'm assuming because it's the UQ they're all Australians, so of course they're better at sport!
Sadly, it's not original but sourced from new scientist magazine.

Weird storm in the UK huh?
You would be creating a person specifically to be studied.

What is wrong with this?

We've created nearly everything else in an effort to study it - from lab rats to virus to the temperature of the sun... If creating these other things are not unethical, why are humans treated differently?

Ok, cool studies.

Now do it with toy trucks and PLUSH toy trucks.

Let's see if the difference is with form as opposed to function.
