The Music Map to new music

I've always been looking for a website that basically introduces me to new music without having to just search for something specifically. Granted this is probably more of me being stubborn and trying to find something to define myself but the Music Map is basiclly a simple program with great potential. It works on associating and linking visitors interests with music, almost creating a floating web of suggestions of musical tastes from one single band name.

Part of the GNOD (Global Network of Dreams), you can just type in a name, and poof...a plethora of suggestions, similar bands or musical tastes comes up. This isn't too accurate seeing how the system doesn't limit itself to genres and therefore you have no way in knowing what you are about to listen to aside from a general idea. I'm sure that country will be country, but eventually it would lead to something like Kid Rock. The other flaw is that mainstream bands do make up 80%-90% of any single band web, however it's amazing enough that up to 20% of different unknown bands make it through.

Onion AV Club Interviews Brian K Vaughan

I have it on good word that Vaughan is one of this generation's finer comic writers. Mike attests that Ex Machina is one of the best comics in years, and knowing how much Mike devours comics, this is high praise indeed. As always, the AV Club interviews are always insightful. Take for example this revelation where he's asked about his previous job experience.

It was my second job after film school. I saw a posting in the NYU job bulletin—they were looking for someone in an audiovisual capacity, so I went and applied for the job. I was sort of the glorified A.V. nerd, wheeling TV trays in and out of places. But every once in a while, I would shoot video stuff where the psychiatric interns would interview patients and they'd want someone to tape it. I'd get to do that. Or I'd have really strange things, like a guy would come into the hospital with, I guess, amnesia... I don't know if there's a better term, a more scientific term, for that, but they would do sodium pentothal, the Nazi truth-serum drug you always hear about in fiction. They'd inject that in order to force memory stuff. I got to tape things like that. And I mean, talk about grist for the mill. As a writer, you want to see stuff like that.

Mistress of Doom

To all the women out there that spend their post-Doom hours rubbing themselves off, imaging what it would be like to be married to computer gaming genius, John Romero, I have bad news for you. It appears that he got married last year to a Romanian girl called Rhaluka. Her blogchronicles their road to marriage as well as showing off their wedding photos. On the wedding photos: I was stunned to find out that Romanian tradition had men wearing pseudo-Hawaiian shirts, but then again, their culture is *very* different than ours, as JoAnn Stan attested to us many times during high school. Those were the days...

Nazis created the sex doll? Seig heil! It's true!

Ever wanted to know where sex dolls came from? According to this article it seems that the Nazis created the gynoid, aka the sex doll to prevent "unecessary loses" from French hookers. More follows:.

The world’s first sexdoll – or ”gynoid” – was built in 1941 by a team of craftsmen from Germany's Hygiene Museum in Dresden. The project was supervised by a famous technician, Franz Tschakert. He was the ”father of the woman of glass,” which happened to be the sensation in the 1930’s International Hygiene Exhibition.

Psychiatrist Dr. Rudolf Chargeheimer wrote the following note as the project went forward:

”The sure thing, purpose and goal of the dolls is to relieve our soldiers. They have to fight and not be on the browl or mingle with 'foreign womenfolk.' However: no real men will prefer a doll to a real woman, until our technicians meet the following quality standards:
The synthetic flesh has to feel the same as real flesh;
The doll’s body should be as agile and moveable as the real body;
The doll’s organ should feel absolutely realistic.”

Consider this my latest effort to get MKZ noticed by the Italian porn industry again. We must deliver the mastabatorial zeigeist!

Rom and Me

Alternatingly heart warming and heart breaking, Rom and Me is one man's website dedicated to one of the finest heroes that the Marvel universe has ever known. Below is an excerpt of a story that "Ceoia", the webmaster, wrote when he found out that Rom is no longer alive. Heart shattering stuff.

For 20 years I have loved this character and now he is dead!

This character was called "ROM Spaceknight." The comic ran from 1979 to 1986. It hurt me when the series ended and it hurt me today when he was killed! He was taken from me twice and my mind reels with shock and pain! My whole being screams, "WHY!?"

Now today I just finished reading a new set of books about his sons. The story took place some time after the devastation of his world. Now it was rebuilt and he was it’s leader; it’s Prime director. He was chosen as such by the Galadorian people. He was married to Brandy Clark, a woman who fell in love with him when he came to Earth as a Space knight to fight the Dire Wraiths. (now he was a man again) The Beyonder sent her to Galador at her request. Now she stood by his side with their two sons, Balin and Tristan.

ROM was revered as a kind of Messiah, a Savior. He was revered so for all his heroic deeds as a Spaceknight, an honor that he greatly deserved! Under his rule, Galador was prosperous and united in peace.

Now I am filled with an unexpected pain. This pain was like no other, a grief that felt like drowning! I read the passage again and my eyes filled with bitter tears, tears for the One that I have loved for so long! I knew at least, that when the book was canceled, that he was still lived in the Marvel Universe but now he was ....just....gone....They had killed him. He died on his ship when it exploded due to a surprise attack by the Dire Wraiths. He was on his way to a planet called Treion, to negotiate a truce between warring factions there when his ship was attacked.

My mind just couldn't take this, it reels with shock and pain. The pain is so great that my emotions went numb. I went numb, unable to function properly. I have been through Sept 11 and being abandoned by my spouse, both I stood and felt, but this..this was just to much for my mind to bear! It hurts so bad that I couldn't even cry! My body screams, "NO!!"

The Joys of Porn Disney

There are some that have always been turned on by cartoon characters. Could it be because they represent a time where the joys of childhood were unpoluted with the sinister taint of puberty? Or could it be that there's a *lot* of really hot cartoon characters? I, being turned on by flesh and blood, am confused about it, but in my confusion I find humour. And what's *not* to humour about geeks getting their groove on to cartoons fucking? With descriptions for Jessica Rabbit porn like
"Nastiest around, wearing a huge tits, owning tight ass ans she like her Rabbit, she uses him everytime she wants cock in", it's hard not to giggle at others' unfortunate fetishes.
