Tuesday Newsdays!

I don’t much like Tuesdays. I have to get up extra early for work on Tuesdays, I’ve usually run out of clean laundry by Tuesday, and Tuesday means that the week isn’t even half over yet. The saving grace of Tuesdays was the fact that Tuesday night was comic creating night, but as of tonight, we’re meeting on Sundays from now on, so Tuesdays are just kind of lame again.

So to save us all from the dreariness of the third day of the week, I am henceforth going to share with you a handful of the past week’s internet treasures, lovingly dug up late at night by yours truly. Let’s get started!

- A fun little article on how your favorite sci-fi shows correspond to your outlook on the future of humanity (by this author’s reasoning, I’m very much a Robert Heinlein gal, though I do hope for the Star Trek future that will never ever happen).
- In further evidence that bacteria totally rocks, scientists have discovered that bacteria are necessary in making rain.
- A chart comparing the Body Mass Index of male superheroes and that of female superheroes. Take notes, Billy Tan.
- This clever gent has given the three top presidential candidates the Monster Manual treatment.
- And a clever lady has made devilishly gorgeous steampunk animal skulls.
- Finally, though usually celebrity gossip isn’t even a blip on my radar, apparently Eliza Dushku and Seth McFarlane are dating. Words cannot express the pure geek perfection of this. In related news, omg Eliza Dushku omg.

  1. I’m really surprized you didn’t come across this

    What is it? no one knows we can only speculate that it’s going to be a new MMO. I got dibs on Jordi.

  2. Ahh, Chimp, my friend, you are behind the times. STO was announced a couple years ago (2004, I believe) but it’s been held up in development hell, and recently, it was pulled from the software company heading the project, Perpetual Entertainment, based here in SF. Hence why the website has nothing, though it used to, because it’s in limbo right now.

    HOWEVER. When it does finally come out, you can bet your ass that yours truly is going to be the best damn Bajoran command officer you’ve ever seen.

  3. Ye of little faith to believe that “I” would not do my homework before posting.

    [QUOTE]Mostly when the game’s official site was mysteriously updated with a new logo and the words “Coming Soon.”

    Attempts to trace the site’s current owner have been unsuccessful, leading many to wonder who exactly is updating the site and presumably continuing work on the game itself.

    Despite a complete lack of solid information, many believe Cryptic Studios, developers of City of Heroes and the upcoming Champions Online, to be the most likely new developer.[/QUOTE]

    So yes the site has been around since 2004. But was updated late last night ^^
