Ever googlewhacked? It’s an activity highly recommended for those slow Saturday nights when you’ve got no pressing chores, a pot of tea at your elbow, and a highly caffeinated imagination. And, now, a tool to hack it with!
Look what I found! From Gooogie, via the Generator Blog. Yeah, come to think of it…that IS what I meant to search for.
A totally diet safe cake heartlessly stolen from curiously crafty. One has to wonder what they get up to there, messing around with people’s cake, but then they don’t take it to any great extent, as is obvious here.
Tell me I’m not into service journalism! Puh-leeze, I’m all about the service pieces, and here’s one of the most useful I’ve come across: How to decode women’s personal ads. The world does not need “how to decode men’s personal ads” because they all translate into “if you show up, I will fuck you.” Duh.
Stolen from the manic manicurist (bonus points for cool blog name!)
1. 40-ish……………………………49 to 59.
2. Adventurous…………………..Slept with everyone.
3. Athletic…………………………. No Hooters.
4. Average looking…………….Moooo.
5. Beautiful……………………….. Pathological liar.
6. Emotionally Secure………..On medication.
etc. I expect my UK friends to have much fun with this. Just assume it was written by Edwina Currie and it will all make perfect sense. And, in an ironic way, that holds true even for those of us who exist outside that particular bubble.
No, really. Watch this astonishing video of a Gonatus Onyx Squid with its brood from Brad Seibel, via Pharyngula. It starts slow, but the wait is worth it. (title heartlessly stolen from Tlonista in Ph‘s comments section; what can I say? It was just lying there, glimmering temptingly)
The Science Pundit adds some useful info in Pharyngula‘s comments section:
When Brad Seibel‘s 2000 paper suggested squids brood, it was called “erroneous.” Years later when Seibel had the opportunity to direct a submersible he captured this footage confirming his hypothesis. Take that, cephalopod traditionalists!
Here’s another useful how-to which should be of great interest to a lot of people who spend too much time on the internet and not enough in the presence of vulvas. This one shows you how to make multiples, too, at no additional cost. Have as many as you like!
Don’t say I never did nuthin’ for ya! Stolen from Pharyngula just for you. Click through to the instructions and be sure to check out the many, many pictures.
The vulva is one of my favorite organs. Not only is it pretty and fun to manipulate, but how it responds tells us so much about its owner. And it is just amazing how much we’re learning about it now.
Don’t worry about clicking to read more…this article is full of pictures, but it is entirely work safe because it’s all about science.
