Man. Genuinely sad to hear about Corey Haim. I wanted to be him in DREAM A LITTLE DREAM so bad. I wish things had turned out better for him. #

It's melting as it hits, but it's snowing slightly outside. #

Picked up the new BT album, THESE HOPEFUL MACHINES. Really digging it so far. He's a bright dude. #

This mushroom meatloaf don't taste much like meatloaf. But it is tasty. #

Mushrooms + red wine + breadcrumbs + oatmeal + egg + ketchup glaze = magic! #

Um…I just got an email asking if RSS is available to play Coachella. I'm not sure if it's a joke. If not…holyfuckingshit. #

I'm going on the assumption, until I find out otherwise, that the Coachella thing is a prank. If not…as I said, holyfuckingshit. #

Announcement: @warrenellis does not rape hobos. They begged for it, each and every filthy one. #

(This is also why @warrenellis's urologist lights his cigars with twenty pound notes and has a Nobel Prize in Genitourinary Magick.) #

Dear @warrenellis: Is it possible to sexually transmit a candiru fish? Accidentally, I mean. #

Red State Soundsystem is playing at Yayo Tacos at 8pm Thurs as part of Neon Reverb. Be there! #

@thegurrier Anti-gay Repub from California gets arrested drunk driving leaving a gay nightclub. Confirmed today he's a friend of Dorothy. in reply to thegurrier #

@thegurrier Because they're bad people. Not differently opinioned than myself; they are evil fucknuts and bad humans who hurt other people. in reply to thegurrier #

@thegurrier I'll debate economics all day, but anyone who's anti-gay is a bad human being or just stone fucking ignorant, no exceptions. in reply to thegurrier #

It's complicated, but I'm extremely happy and so is she. If you really want more info, call me. But this is the super awesome. #

So glad I don't have cable. You guys watch the Oscars for me. #

Kinda cool that Jim Cameron and Kathryn Bigelow are both up for Oscars. I assume their relationship is amicable. (They used to be married.) #

Dr. Girlfriend is singing in the shower. Sam Cooke, "Bring It On Home To Me". Did I mention Dr. Girlfriend is adorable? #

Looking at Urban Outfitters' clothes section made me feel bad about myself. They don't carry men's pants over waist size 36. #

Would you find me? / Would you kiss my eyes / And lay me down in silence, easy / To be born again? #

That wasn't emo, kids. That was Van fucking Morrison. #

Dr. Mrs. The Monarch is judging an acting competition at a local high school and I'm tagging along. Pray for my tormented soul. #

(I never realized that she actually does look like Dr. Girlfriend. Which means Halloween is gonna be rad.) #

God, high schools are terrifying. Never thought I'd walk into one again unless I was sporting a trenchcoat and shotgun. :-p #

@skywaterblue ??? QuickTime is a wrapper, not a format. What problems are you having? in reply to skywaterblue #

@skywaterblue How are you encoding the audio? in reply to skywaterblue #

@skywaterblue Mac or PC? If it's Mac, install Perian. It's the Big Codec Pack Of Love. in reply to skywaterblue #

@uloop_jobs Thank you. That would be wonderful, were I in fact a CSN student. As it is, I doubt student jobs pay my rather high salary. in reply to uloop_jobs #

Does anyone who can pass an IQ test watch MTV anymore? Really? #

@atavistian Last time I watched MTV, Kennedy was still hosting ALTERNATIVE NATION. For I am ancient. (I still fondly remember Martha Quinn.) in reply to atavistian #

Where have you gone, Martha Quinn? A nation turns its lonely eyes to you. #

I need to stop reading music websites. If I see one more post gushing about some hipster band's "dense harmonies" I'm gonna stab someone. #

THE BEACH BOYS WERE NOT THE BEST BAND IN THE 60S, GODDAMNIT. #

All these Brian Wilsonabees are musical Prozac — artificial emotion for people devoid of the real thing. Real emotions ain't that pretty. #

Also? Stop dressing like a special needs kid from 1981. Your future self will thank you when the photo album comes out in 2025. #

@warrenellis Strangely, those were also your mother's first words to me. :-p in reply to warrenellis #

@warrenellis Also? Too hot for pants today here. We are all lounging nude in the park drinking hurricanes and basking in the desert heat. #

@mattsorvillo I think I found your future ex-wife. http://bit.ly/cRraED #

My thoughts on the "retard" controversy: most of our epithets for calling someone stupid are or were actual clinical terms. #

"Idiot", "imbecile" and "moron" used to be medical descriptions. So what do you call a stupid person without offending someone? #

Funnily enough, I would never refer to someone with legitimate mental challenges as a "retard". I reserve that for people like Karl Rove. #

A mini-lecture on Twitter, for your enjoyment, about the waves of Web development. (Development of the Web itself, I mean.) #

Web 1.0 (around 1967 – 2002) Building the infrastructure of the network itself and the tech/bandwidth needed for rich experience. #

Web 2.0 (2003-2009) Enabling every person to become a publisher of "content" and building soft infrastructure to share it (social networks). #

Web 3.0 (2010-???) Building tools to filter out all the horrible crap people put up thanks to Web 2.0. Curatorship of "good" content. #

Web 4.0 (no timeline) Giving every goddamn thing in the universe an IP address. #

Our current stage – 3.0 – is about not only connecting content nodes, but the RIGHT nodes — the media YOU want to see. #

@claytoncubitt happy 21st birthday, dogg. Werd. #
