Gratis versus Libre March 16, 2010

Yesterday I added a tshirt page to this site, thus ending many years of guarded secrecy.

Why, you ask, after so many years?

Well, as a champion of open information, open content, open access, openness in general, free culture and all other things free (I use open here interchangeably with free — free as in freedom), it just seemed like the right and inevitable thing to do. Yes, maybe this puts my unique tshirt style at risk, and that sucks, but hey we’re talking about freedom here, right?

Besides there are so many great tshirts out there these days. It’s not like back in the day where I had to search endlessly, endlessly, for just one find, which would then show up on a crappy Gildan tee anyway. Plus, a few sites make excellent quality prints (see Tilteed) and deserve exposure for it.

Often I wonder
Just how it will all work out.
It is never clear.

I heart Alicia Keys March 10, 2010

I’m seeing Alicia Keys in concert tomorrow…err, today, and so as is the custom, I’m listening to her songs and watching videos of her.

I love love love her laugh at 4:33 as she says “I love sweet potatoes” — sooo contagious <3

Which brings me to my next point. I think I might be in love with Alicia Keys. Like, for real though.

A note to those of you who haven’t heard of iheartradio: Welcome. We call this planet “Earth”

Some updates, of the future reference variety:

- I’m still without furniture, but I *feel* settled into my new place
- I’m broke, but hopefully not for too long
- living close to work is awesome — I strongly encourage it
- havarti is my new favourite cheese to enjoy with wine, though brie is still very yummy. for some reason I like the way the wine cuts through the soft cheeses.
- I’m an excellent cook
- my sister is crazy
- I’ve recently opened up my twitter from just a small group of friends to a more extended list
- and it’s only a matter of time before I end my secretive tshirt policy
- I think I’m going to start swimming every morning. the only question is whether I’ll be disciplined enough to get up on time.
- even though I haven’t been watching the NHL this year, I’m really missing the Olympic hockey games with no tv. I’m gonna start hitting up some bars soon.
- as a side note, I hate the Olympics
- I miss my friends

This goes against my secretive tshirt policy, but whatever.

Besides, I’ve been seriously thinking about reversing this policy anyway.

RIP JD Salinger January 31, 2010

Via The Onion:

BUNCH OF PHONIES MOURN J.D. SALINGER

CORNISH, NH—In this big dramatic production that didn’t do anyone any good (and was pretty embarrassing, really, if you think about it), thousands upon thousands of phonies across the country mourned the death of author J.D. Salinger, who was 91 years old for crying out loud. “He had a real impact on the literary world and on millions of readers,” said hot-shot English professor David Clarke, who is just like the rest of them, and even works at one of those crumby schools that rich people send their kids to so they don’t have to look at them for four years. “There will never be another voice like his.” Which is exactly the lousy kind of goddamn thing that people say, because really it could mean lots of things, or nothing at all even, and it’s just a perfect example of why you should never tell anybody anything.

Things you should know about me to truly know me.

I guess I’ll add to this as it comes to me — nah probably not, I’m lazy. I mostly just wanted to make it clear that you shouldn’t talk shit to me like you know me. Who I am. Where I come from. Where I’ve been. What I’ve seen. Or all that’s gone into making me and bringing me here before you today.

Sina: I have a date

Cuqs: Hooray! Don’t get her pregnant because then you’ll have to talk about it. Okay?

Sina: Whoa Cuqui. One step at a time….!

Cuqs: No one step at a time…that suggests planning. We’re talking about UNplanned pregnancies. geez sina
