@littlehelper I thought it was dead?
The apocalypse is coming — is the human race even worth saving? Neal Stephenson’s “Seveneves” – http://t.co/MkcbMJ9tDf // Looks good!
@littlehelper I’ve been using Pocket for that for a while. Integrates well with web and iOS, has nice APIs and IFTTT integration.
@littlehelper I have a cron job on my blog that picks up each day’s links from Pocket, for instance.
@mobywhale @syddevops Fantastic! Best of luck… 🙂
@i386 @carlfish Should I watch this show? I watched the first ep but was underwhelmed. But is it relevant now I’m back in startup land?
Okay, Game of Thrones. That was the WORST. #brainbleach

In the cab on the way to the airport. Can’t think of anything I forgot. This is probably a terrible omen.
Standing in a queue before I’ve had coffee has gotta be a human rights violation.

Mad Max: Fury Road Is the Feminist Action Flick You’ve Been Waiting For | VICE | United States – WOW. Look, up until yesterday I was completely ambivalent about seeing the new Mad Max movie. I only watched like half of the first one before getting bored, and I don’t remember seeing either of the two sequels. But my friend Kelly worked on it (she famously once got me an autographed photo of Ewan McGregor), and I saw it was getting some really good reviews… AND THEN last night I read that some whiny MRA crybaby wants dudes to boycott it because Charlize Theron talks too much in the trailers or something, and ZOMG WHAT NOW I HAVE TO SEE THIS.
So today we went, and it was awesome. CARS CRASHING! FLAMES SPURTING! KICKASS MOTORCYCLE GRANNIES WITH GUNS. When the pole boys appeared during that final road war my brain nearly fell out, and I leaned over to the Snook and whispered “WHAT THE HELL I CAN’T EVEN GAHHHHHHH.” He was too busy pretending to be iOTA the Doof Warrior and feverishly air guitaring in his seat. If you haven’t seen it yet, you really should. And don’t just torrent it; this is the kind of thing that needs to be seen on as LARGE and LOUD a screen as possible.
And dibs on Furiosa for next Halloween. I’m calling it right now.
