Over there on teh Twitters, I post on a pretty wide range of subjects. I instigate #geekfights, link to stuff I like, taunt friends, pimp my work, pimp other people’s work, and generally have fun. Oh, and I also tweet about politics. Stuff like this: The problem for the hardcore GOP voter is that they know [...]

Yeah. Ok. I’ve got a British Police Telephone booth (Mackenzie Design) in my living room. And before you ask – yeah, it’s bigger on the inside. What can I say? It looked good next to the bookcases. Booth constructed by Israel Skelton. Pictures by Shane Leonard:   OhmiGod it’s full of stars… !   And this [...]

A lot of people wax sarcastic about social networks (me too sometimes), but there’s a lot to admire about the hivemind; it is a community of thought, where [...]

Everyone needs a compulsion hobby; mine is Satanism keeping journals. I have 8 of them going at the moment. How did this happen to a nice normal guy like me? How did I wind up with a litter of diaries to feed, nourish, groom, and otherwise look after? Wouldn’t one be enough? Here’s what got [...]

Obviously this could be huge. I plan to scrap everything and begin work on this immediately.   “Squidnatius Perrish spent the night underwater and doing terrible things. He woke the next morning with a headache, put his hands to his temples, and felt something unfamiliar, a pair of wiggly protuberances. He was so ill – [...]

“‘I speak only for myself, mind – it is my own truth alone – but man as part of a movement or a crowd is indifferent to me. He is inhuman. And I have nothing to do with nations, or nationalism. The only feelings I have – for what they are – are for men [...]
