When I woke up this morning, I didn’t think I could possibly hate Ralph Nader any more.
This article proved me wrong.
I haven’t made a precise, completely wrong prediction in a while, so I thought I’d go out on a limb here. Al Gore will be Obama’s VP candidate. He’s the only person that makes sense. Here are some reasons why.
- Obama needs to appease Hillary’s supporters. This means having a very good reason not to choose Clinton. Gore is the only Democrat who isn’t named Clinton with a profile anywhere near Hillary’s.
- Nobody really dislikes Gore. At worst people are unexcited. A VP Gore wouldn’t really upset anybody.
- Obama doesn’t need to grab a new swath of voters with the VP choice. He just needs to avoid isolating those he already has.
- Gore has been outside Washington for long enough that he won’t muck up the change mandate.
- Gore actually has relevant experience. This could assuage some people’s concerns.
- For what it’s worth, he’s a Southerner.
This would be good. Very good, indeed.

After holding back on joining Hulu, ABC signed a deal with Veoh to make full episodes of prime time shows available on veoh.com… Users who discover a show on Veoh will actually pull up ABC’s own player to watch the video with pre-sold ads.
Dipshit old media move, ABC. Way to think that through. Instead of using an extrememly popular, successful, proven service to distribute your content online, you opt to go with a relatively unpopular video service to link to the content that you’re already failing to showcase on your website.
How well do you think that strategy works out for the shows that link out of Hulu (see Psych, or older episodes of TBS shows, for examples) do? They fucking don’t. Networks have had video players in their own websites for years. Nobody used them because they were poorly executed. Linking to your pre-existing bullshit player is not going to do a damn thing for online viewership of Ugly Betty.
ABC, pull your head out of your proprietary ass and get with the times. This is a halfhearted move, and you’re not going to have anything to show for it.
Except the ABC player is actually pretty good. Great quality.
I strongly agree with Adam.
The ABC Player works just fine, and it gives great quality. Oh, and guess what? They also play the episodes of the shows you want to see, the day after they’re on tv.
Anyone who thinks that this is a bad idea is apperently not familiar with television or television being shown on the internet. CBS and NBC have shitty players… so if they did something like this, it would be a dick move.
I think this is awesome, and is a smooth move by ABC.
I’m interested in how people are using Tumblr
- how many people they follow
- how many people follow them
- why they use it
So I put together a quick unofficial survey.
If you’re interested, too, please take it. You can be anonymous and most fields are optional.
All the data will be public in a week or so.

Please reblog so we get more responses!
Sure, why not.
I am reblogging this purely so I can check the “You bet!” box.
You bet!
Ringfinger - Nine Inch Nails
There are a bunch of songs, that if I can get a band who’d agree to it, that I would LOVE to cover.
This is one of them. Here’s a list, because I like that sort of thing:
There are maybe about a million others… Elanor Rigby by the Bealtes, White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane, Christmas Tree on Fire by Holly Golightly, I Kissed A Girl by Katy Perry and Love Potion Number 9 by the Clovers, Break on Through by the Doors and Oh Darlin by the Beatles… and a lot more, lol.
So I guess Heroes is channeling Grease next season?
I guess I’m finally growing up, because I saw this picture, and totally felt like this was none of my business to see.
My boyfriend (That word is weird) works really early in the day… from like 4:30 in the morning until 12:30 in the afternon.
I work a mid-day shift, from 10:00am until 7:00pm. I have all kinds of internet access here, so I can chat online with everyone (everywhere except freaking stickam, gah).
Anyway, the point is, that around 12:25 or so every weekday I keep eyeballing my AIM to see if he is online yet (he’s normally not online until about 1:00 though), because I’m always really excited to talk to him, lol. Sometimes I’ll be busy and not be thinking about it and get a pleasant suprise when he IMs me first. And that’s always pretty awesome.
