Stuff to Watch: Vexille

Published on November 30, 2009 in Science Fiction and Videos. 0 Comments

Vexille has what is easily one of the best story lines of any sci-fi recently. If you’re into science fiction movies you owe it to yourself to watch this. A bit slow at times, I’ll admit, but overall great and thought provoking. (Just try to look past the fact that it’s a CGI anime, if you’re not into either.)

It’s up on Hulu for now, but I figured if I could embed and make it easy for you, why not?

Thoughts welcome.

Hiroshima: What Was it Like?

This is a follow up to a previous post about the matter.

Probably the most studied war today, World War II still holds us in fascination over the immensity of the odds at stake, the fairy tale like themes of good versus evil, and as an example of the lengths we will go to in order to win at war, or the depths to which humans will sink to in torturing or killing one another. The war saw the rise of a tyrant bent on world domination, the extermination of millions through genocide, and the birth of the nuclear age.

The first ever use of nuclear weaponry in war occurred on August 6, 1949, in the town of Hiroshima, Japan. The following video chronicles a bit of that history, including eye witness accounts from the crew who unleashed Little Boy, and from victims who endured its wrath.

If I had one of those “mood” icons next to my post, today’s mood would be “urgh”.

Ever heard the saying “good things and bad things all come in threes”? I honestly pray the saying holds true. Yesterday, three bad things happened, all of which made the prison of my mind into a very uncomfortable place to spend what has seemed since to be like a lifetime. Three more negative wrinkles were added to my brain.

I pray that today my luck does a 180o, especially since I have to be at the dentists at noon.

Anyway, to make me feel better I usually take refuge in funny things, simply because it’s easy to push pain (like embarrassment, anger, and disappointment) from your mind when you’re laughing. I feel even better when people are laughing with me, so help me feel better by laughing at this video of cats in funny pictures captioned to be saying funny things. Srsly, ur gonna LOL.
