Only one thing can make me laugh this morning. And that thing is… ludicrous speed!

Great little clip from Carl Sagan about our origins and the universe. I hadn’t seen this one before, thanks for digging it up Mr. MShades!

This is the official video for “Home,” by Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros. It’s a touching song and a crazy mix of genres and I’m completely in love with it. I was turned onto these guys by the amazing and beautiful (not to mention future president of the United States) Kelly Ramundo. Thanks babe, the Spain crew misses you already!

This is an amazing video discussing the crisis of capitalism and the internal contradictions of capital accumulation. Is it time to look beyond capitalism towards a new social order that would allow us to live within a system that really could be responsible, just, and humane? I think so. - Thanks to Poetzscher for tuning me into this and the other interesting discussions via the RSA.

OH MY GOD IT’S A DOUBLE RAINBOW!!!

Math is beautiful! Gotta learn me some Processing someday.

Man sometimes I really miss Chicago. I’ve always loved a good thunderstorm.

Yes yes yes yes yes!

Great band, great album, great song. Go pick up “Frightened Rabbit - The Winter of Mixed Drinks” when you get the chance, you won’t regret it.
