Pyr Post
I’m a pizza driver, and I deliver to this house with a Great Pyrenees who is AWESOME AS FUCK. I knew it was a Great Pyrenees because of Shebly, and now I kinda want one. What can you tell me from experience about the breed? Was a Great Pyrenees your first choice? Are they good for first time dog owners?
Pyrenees fuckin’ rule and I cannot think of a breed I would rather have. They...
Phew Nobody Registered TopatoCo.tumblr Yet
topatoco:
Now that we have a van, the next logical step was to set up a tumblr. I think maybe we’ll just post what all we just got in stock so you ain’t got to keep refreshing that thing that you want everyday, who knows.
Sobriety Check-In
As of now, it’s been a little over six months since I quit drinking. I thought it’d be a good time to check in and let you guys know how I’ve been doing.
For the most part, I’ve been successful, and it hasn’t been as hard as I was worried it would be! I’ve had a few slip-ups, but they’ve been spaced widely apart and the vast majority of the time I...
UN Hearing On AI Rights
The subject of this debate is whether AIs are “people-” whether they possess the same degree of personhood as humans, and whether that entitles them to the same rights.
You have heard all the arguments for and against the consciousness, intelligence, free will, and cognition of artificial intelligence. To rehash them here would settle nothing, and my feeble attempts at summarizing...
QA Dump #23
hey! i’m the indian kid with the TARDIS phone case who brought you coffee in austin on sunday. i’ve been rereading vol. 1 in print, and i’d just like to say that i’m SO glad that you added all of the little footnotes. reading your really in depth commentary/quasi-blogging is one of my favorite parts of early QC and it really had the same feel. thanks for being awesome!...
My Favorite Albums of 2011
#15 Mogwai- Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will
It’s rather jarring to hear Mogwai try so many new things on their latest album. “Mexican Grand Prix” is straight up krautrock, “George Square Thatcher Death Party” sounds like a Ladytron song being played with live instruments instead of keyboards, and are those HORNS on “Too Raging to Cheers?” But for...
QA Dump #22
Is the girl from panels 1 and 2 of #2031 the same girl in panel 3 of #2073? And if so, will she serve a purpose later on or is she just there as a background character?
Sssshhhhhhh
In panel three of comic 2073 (Marten and Padma’s date) was that the concrete wall across the street from Herrell’s in NoHo? Or am I just grasping at straws?
Yep!
How do you get the shadows? Is it...
QA Dump #21
So I’ll be the first to ask (hopefully): Does Momo’s “charge” start with her head and go out through her skin, or does she zap her intended target with her ponytails?
The capacitors are located in her torso, the charge is directed through whatever part of her is contacting the recipient.
As we progress to December, do you think the QC universe will move into winter...
