Positively No Ball Playing Allowed (Jackson Heights, Queens)
1. Print out
2. Cut out the door sign.
3. Play BioShock (Preferably Infinite)
4. If don’t have Bioshock, pretend you have it anyway.
This is brilliant.
Patiently waiting to surprise the next person out of the bathroom. Shh.
Oh, sure, when he does it he gets 100+ notes on Tumblr, but when I do it I get slapped with a restraining order.

This book is awesome and you should buy 100 copies right now. I was reading the manuscript on the subway last night and getting great horrified looks from the passengers as they tried to peep at it. So damn funny.
My lovely followers, please follow this blog immediately!
Social Media, you’re doing it right KitKat and Oreo!

I love seeing things like this pop up on my Twitter feed - social media bookish folks working together.

Songs: Ohia, “Farewell Transmission,” off The Magnolia Electric Co.
Oh man! That’s awful. “Tigress” and “How to Be Perfect Men” are still two of my favorite songs.

Official Browncoat Cookbook
Which was apparently published on the Serenity website back in 2006 or so, and is now apparently very very hard to find on the internet. But I found it. Not in PDF, but still.
Discovery is Publishers' Problem; Readers are Doing Just Fine #book2
The book publishing conference season is in full swing and “discovery” is the buzzword du jour, driven by the curious notion that, with the decline of physical bookstores, readers supposedly can’t easily find books online. There’s even new research that claims “frequent book buyers visit sites like Pinterest and Goodreads regularly, but those visits fail to drive actual book purchases.”
Unfortunately, in the spirit of “lies, damned lies, and statistics,” that research is skewed partly by its authors’ underlying agenda (“Physical retail works if you protect it.”), but more importantly, by its flawed methodology, specifically its dependence on what’s known as last-click attribution, wherein the final interaction that led to a sale is given 100% credit for the conversion, ignoring the realities of multiple touchpoints and myriad potential influencers.
Guy covers a lot of important points as well.
Interesting read.

Pope Benedict XVI, the former Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, shocked the world Monday with a statement announcing his resignation.
This GIF is killing me.
I’ve seen my share of “fake geek girl” shaming, and just thought having a Fairy Gamer Momma to come to the rescue would be nice. I know they exist, I’ve met plenty who are amazing and could beat my ass at any version of Mario Kart. Give the Gamer Momma in your life a big hug! :D
