  • RunningBlog: Vintage Running Clothes

    Mena over at the Sew Weekly talks about Vintage Running Clothes:

    Thinking about my options, I decided to see if there were any photographs of Dita Von Teese (someone who famously maintains a vintage look at all times) doing the exericse thing. It turns out that even when Dita Von Teese is exercising, she keeps her look. But that’s at the gym. And, she’s barefoot. I want to know what she would wear going for a jog!

    I guess the answer to that is: DITA VON TEESE DOES NOT JOG!

    Heh. I bet not.

    Anyone done a training course with IRM or SoftEd? Trying to decide which’d be better. Advice from fellow BA’s most welcome… (@brown_note)


    @brown_note Thanks. Both look equivalent to me: http://bit.ly/iKl6Qy http://bit.ly/koffx3. Just trying to come up with a differentiator…


    @brown_note Just to formalise what I’ve been learning on the job for 2.5 years, identify any gaps, and do my job better, really!


    @brown_note Excellent. Thanks a lot for your advice! I appreciate it. 🙂


    @imdominating Good god, it looks like a broken ankle waiting to happen. (For this clumsy giraffe, anyway.)


    @imdominating Meet @kunaal84. I told him to follow you (since he’s watching your GoT rips). He likes all the same shit we like.


    @imdominating @kunaal84 Except for R.Pattz.

    Hey @SenatorBushby. Being “sorry that you were offended” is a classic NON-apology. I’m sorry you’re a jerk.


    @steven_noble General rudeness is at least egalitarian. #meow is sexist, and even worse, it’s dumb & unimaginative.

    @randomknits Get @gilmae to install mythtv for you! Time shifting is the shit. 🙂


    @venks79 Seems to work great! I’m in. But I thought I’d need to be on the VPN to access?


    @randomknits Ah, I thought it was unusual that you didn’t have something!

  • Queer terms you should know…

    My friend Bex has written an excellent blog post: “Queer terms you should know…” I’ve been seeing the prefix “cis-” used more and more – especially over at MeFi – so it was good to clarify exactly what it means. Thanks Bex!
