This post has good links, plus the LJer is trying to think productively.

Also this post.

I'm sure the comments are full of stuff too.

And in the comments to the original whistle-blowing post there are links to a facebook campaign, plus more links to useful alternatives.

ETA: It's going to be OK, guys!!

(Yahoo are filthy people. We shall speak of them no more!)

I want to think positively, but am grumpy. And I broke the handle of my Spike multi-pairings mug. :( It's fixable (if I can find the superglue), but it's not helped matters...

Changed my layout, which cheered me a little - Eleven in a Santa hat is an unfailing source of cheer. Almost.

ETA: More attempts at cheer:


And via Sullivan, an article that has to be read to be believed: The gays stole the rainbow. Really, there is not enough facepalming in the world... (Although I'm pleased that my tag is so appropriate.)

It seems to defy all laws of nature, but I think I am ok with that :D

[elisi]

Well he's a Timelord, defying the laws of nature is child's play! ;)

You can't break the laws of science, but we can be civilly disobedient with them.

[elisi]

LOL!

And old favorite from old podcasting favorite Tiki Bar TV--they liked to talk about "science" in authoritative but ridiculously vague fashion =D

New news: apparently del.icio.us has responded--Yahoo's going to try to sell, not planning to shutter the site. They've updated the TechCrunch article.

...And now you've reminded me of Brass Eye. *happy sigh* "There is no evidence for it, but it is scientific fact!"

It's too late, and I'm too tired, for finding more gifs. But that one made me smile! :)

[promethia_tenk]

Hee :-) I'm pretty sure you won any gif exchange with that first volley anyway--that's a keeper for sure, lol.

I remember watching it! 'Twas for Children in Need, and the spotty (under)pants were auctioned off afterwards. Actually, here's the clip in question - my John Barrowman love knows no bounds! :)

[promethia_tenk]

That is too much awesome =D

Isn't it just? I love, love, love the fact that he's become so famous, because he's such a fabulous, wonderful thing! :)
