Being the ramblings of a young man of squandered talent and unfocused ambition; being a sop for his friends and a strop for his wits; being a depository for ideas which coalesced and went nowhere. I can promise only this: I will say smart things, and I will never, ever use nostalgia as a substitute for wit.
The Introverse
This is a silly blog with a silly name about things which may or may not be silly. The rhetoric is there... if you're gonna read it.
Comment, dammit.
Comment, dammit.
I'm watching... things.
About Me
Go visit people I like. In no particular order.
- Ben is a smart guy who cares about things that are sometimes strange to me. Mostly software. Code monkey make good blog.
- If you've ever liked Ben Stein, you're in for an ugly surprise. Sorry, fans of "Win Ben Stein's Money," but it turns out he's not such a bright guy after all.
- Warren Ellis is a brutal genius of words and probably anger management issues. Or maybe that's just his characters? I don't know. Anyway, he writes the best comic books. Period.
- This was my undergraduate honors thesis on teaching evolutionary biology through the history of the science. It's relatively unpolished, but I think the core notion is solid and someday soon I'd like to revisit it.
- This is my local rational organization. They're pretty cool, although many of them are older and their events are generally expensive.
- These guys have some pretty danged important things to say about environmentalism, politics, and generally why we're all going about it wrong.
- The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe. Regardless of what you think of the name, this is my favorite podcast and well worth the listen. Check out the site too!
- The Public Library of Science makes me so excited it's almost obscene. Seriously, this is really, really cool. Free reputable peer-reviewed scientific journals. I wish I could marry you, internet.
- The Encyclopedia of Life has so much potential I can hardly begin to describe it. Imagine a scientifically-reviewed Wiki for every living thing, and... well, that's actually pretty much what it is.
- This wouldn't be complete without throwing out a link to the greatest punk act in history.
- UW Oceanography. Maybe if I link to them, they'll let me in. Please? Guys? Come on. I just want to study hydrothermal vent extremophile ecosystems.
- And that means I also have to give props to my oceanographic "hometown," the UT Marine Science Institute.
- Are you excited about solar power? Me too. So's my uncle Billy Stanbery.
- I am fortunate enough to live in what has to be the absolute coolest neighborhood in the whole damn world. Our neighborhood association runs everything from a farmers' market to beer tastings to green home improvement seminars. Wicked cool.
- Have you heard about the 100-Mile Diet? No? DO IT NOW. Eating local tastes better, is better for you, and is one of the most effective ways you can contribute to bringing about a new, sustainable economy.
- Speaking of Dr. Sagan, he was a hero and you should go learn something from his legacy RIGHT NOW.
- Dr. Steven Novella's Neurologica blog - neurology and other stuff. Think about thinking!
- And Skepchick. See? You can think critically without being an old stuffy dude. No offense, Carl, but she's cuter.
