Here I am

This grad school thing does seem to take a certain amount of time each day...

It makes sense to return to spewing fun things to look at here, though. Here's a collection of stuff that's been accumulating in my collective bookmarks for far too long:

• Looks like the Multiverse cosmology concept is possibly the best theory for everything. Yay!


• News from today: A gang of anarchist Robin Hood-style thieves, who dress as superheroes and steal expensive food from exclusive restaurants and delicatessens to give to the poor, are being hunted by police in the German city of Hamburg


• UCLA astronomers discover a nebula in the shape of a double helix. I dreamed about this once about 7 years ago, but the helix contained an entire universe...


• Behold the white fuzzy lobster!


• Dance Dance DNA Revolution (also from Boing Boing)


• A robot powered by a slime mold


• Finally (for now), John K. has a blog, in case you weren't sure how pervy Ren and Stimpy were...
