Critix Redux — Art guru James Gurney on art criticism (again), which he compares to music criticism. How does this apply to literary criticism? It would seem that SF/F is to literary criticism as comics are to art criticism, but still.
SMBC on sex with nerds — Though this could be sex with writers. Binding, bondage: is there a difference?
Big Bend National Park — One of my favorite places on Earth, from orbit, natch.
Robot vs. Lobster — When a hexapod robot challenges a decapod crustacean, who wins? A million years of human evolution. Fifty thousand years of cultural development. Over two centuries of industrialization. And now, this.
