<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlJdFf3hV7I">Meantime, Richard Dawkins is just sitting around reading his email out loud.</a></p>
<p><a href="http://radaronline.com/from-the-magazine/2008/08/worst_colleges_in_america_2008_part_1_01.php">This article about the worst places to go for a higher education was very amusing. I especially liked the completely incoherent defenses of Drexel University in the comments.</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBALqvp08Vk">John McCain called his wife a cunt! Isn&#8217;t that great? Use it people!</a></p>

<p>Uri Geller <a href="http://gadgets.boingboing.net/2008/08/05/psychic-spoonbender.html">got humiliated</a> in court.</p>
<p>This was Weird Al&#8217;s first ever appearance <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YQa6l3Geyo">on televison</a>.</p>
<p>I used to really like adbusters, but this article about hipsters (which I&#8217;ve been hearing all about because of where I live and probably what my profession is) just comes off as a <a href="http://www.adbusters.org/magazine/79/hipster.html">higher word-count version of a whiney missive</a> in an underground high-school newspaper.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t much care for the &#8220;people in their rooms talking to their cameras&#8221; phenomenon on YouTube, but it&#8217;s apparently <a href="http://benjoseph.org/post/44490666/from-the-video-a-version-john-gabriels-greater">important in an anthropological sense</a>.</p>
<p>Speaking of those people talking to their cameras, <a href="http://double7film.com/community/">look what Pete Chatmon did</a>!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a pretty interesting roundup of the things the nerds over at the Large Hadron Collider <a href="http://cosmicvariance.com/2008/08/04/what-will-the-lhc-find/">might find</a>&#8230;you know if they can stop <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j50ZssEojtM">rapping</a> for five minutes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://homepage.mac.com/axo1ot1/spivey.jpg">I never heard of this <a href="http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2008/06/hot-summer-fash.html">Gary Spivey</a> guy before, but I sure love his <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=tKC8d_KWk6s">swagger</a>.</p>
<p>Film distributors are <a href="http://books.guardian.co.uk/news/articles/0,,2287008,00.html">ducking the critics</a> more and more in order to have bangin&#8217; opening weekends. Boo hoo. It&#8217;s not like the people stupid enough to go see Epic Movie deserve the money they spent on their tickets, is it?</p>
<p>Dawkins <a href="http://www.videosift.com/video/Richard-Dawkins-On-Al-Jazeera-English">went on Al Jazeera</a> and it was actually a somewhat intelligent affair, at least compared to when he went <a href="http://onegoodmove.org/1gm/1gmarchive/2007/04/richard_dawkins_9.html">on The Factor</a>. You know what, though? I just don&#8217;t get why anyone goes on O&#8217;Reilly anymore. Dawkins goes on to argue his point with sincerity and the shit O&#8217;Reilly throws at him is just so absurd as to be self-canceling. What&#8217;s the point of talking to him? Don&#8217;t you just lend him credibility by appearing on his show? Someone please explain.</p>
<p>DO NOT WATCH <a href="http://www.videosift.com/video/Maggots-Inside-the-head-of-a-boy">THIS HORRIBLE MOVIE</a> OF MAGGOTS EATING A LITTLE BOY&#8217;S HEAD. IT WILL MAKE YOU THROW UP.</p>
<p>I sure like Seed&#8217;s <a href="http://www.seedmagazine.com/news/2008/07/seeds_daily_zeitgeist_7212008_2.php">Daily Zeitgeist</a> feature.</p>
<p>Double 7 World has this hilarious <a href="http://double7film.com/community/?p=139">roof sex video</a>, which is by the same director/animator that did <a href="http://www.badcharacter.com/pasta/">this thing</a> I posted the other day as well as one of my <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qv5-m9Yy9rA">all time favorite music videos</a>.</p>
<p>And finally, this is apparently what it would be like <a href="http://benjoseph.org/post/43137825/streeter-dan-and-i-worked-this-idea-up-with-help">if fonts were people</a>. (Pro tip: if you install the font Gotham HTF, which costs a mere $400, you can see my post titles in their true glory.</p>

<p>I am excited about hip-hop right now. <a href="http://www.vibe.com/news/news_headlines/2008/07/internet_superstars/">This article</a> describes a big part of why that is. In short, &#8220;today’s rapper doesn’t need a major label system to get attention.&#8221; Maybe rap video director too?</p>
<p>If you get a job at NASA, they&#8217;re gonna want <a href="http://gizmodo.com/5025790/nasa-collecting-8-gallons-of-employees-urine-daily-for-space-toilet-research">your pee pee</a>.</p>
<p>Double 7 World is loving the new <a href="http://double7film.com/community/?p=124">Fonzworth Bentley, Andre 3k and Yeezy jam</a>, and I am too. Also, you can take a look at <a href="http://double7film.com/community/?p=101">more and more footage</a> from Pete&#8217;s trip to South Africa where he&#8217;s been working on a documentary that you ought to be excited about.</p>
<p>Mars used to be <a href="http://blog.wired.com/wiredscience/2008/07/water-water-eve.html">drenched with water</a>. Can&#8217;t wait &#8217;til they start digging up alien plesiosaur fossils.</p>
<p><a href="http://videos.nola.com/times-picayune/2008/07/sticker_cars_part_two.html">Weird video</a> about people who put stickers on their cars in New Orleans. &#8220;Everybody knows Superman looks better than ugly Cheetos car.&#8221;</p>
