io9’s analysis of the forthcoming film – just given a distribution deal – makes me far more intrigued than the initial “Mexican District 9” buzz. The movie clip above completes the excitement needed to at least get me to preemptively queue it. Which is smart, since the Chester 5 will more than likely never pick this one up. Or will for like three days, if it does.
…the fucking future is here.

Capturing the objects and moments of a normal day in a normal work week.
We had Friday off during the students’ Spring Break this past week. This was a tremendously wonderful thing.
The most amazing part of it, though, was the voicemail I had waiting for me on my phone when I returned to work this morning. To quote from memory:
This is the Alameda County sheriff’s jail with a call. Would you like to accept or decline?
I would have accepted, had I been here, but only because I’ve watched this too many times:
Telephone (ft. Beyonce) – Lady GaGa from jake on Vimeo.
This music video, directed by Chris Do, is a bit like what would happen if you computer animated me and put me in a modern update of Myst. I loved Myst, so this is alright with me. I also covet his wardrobe, even if it doesn’t, you know, exist.
Oh, and the song is pretty listenable, too.

This video gives an excellent overview of all that makes Alexander McQueen’s work for the last few years great. As originally posted on alexandermcqueen.com, which is well worth visiting.
The Museum of Modern Tweets is one of the most entertaining websites I’ve ever stumbled across. This is entirely because I make the same absurd pictures in my mind every time I read someone’s beige tweets. I wish I’d have found it sooner.
According to the artist/author, the site is updated every Tuesday “unless my hands fall off and my computer explodes.” Good work habits are hard to find.
