The friends that eat each other stay together. For eternity.

So this is obviously a thing that happens between good friends.

Totally normal. Nothing strange or unusual about this friendship.

Watch all the videos these guys make - two fast-talking brothers share hilarious insights on science, history, modern issues, video games, politics, and more.

Oh, geez.

Yeah.

Welp.

I.

Well, shit (as my philosophy professor used to say).  Sorry for the total blogging fuckup, guys.  I am, in fact, alive and not - as the duration of the last post's status as the most recent post would suggest - mopey and depressed.

So what exactly have I been doing with all the time I haven't spent blogging? you ask.

I went to the Denver County Fair, where I won a t-shirt and ate a delicious quesadilla and saw a cream-colored donkey with whom I felt a deep inexplicable kinship.

I picked up a terrible part time job that nonetheless pays the bills as it sucks away my patience and goodwill toward my fellow humankind.

I read Mary Roach's hilarious Packing for Mars, Bonk, and Spook, all of which caused me to literally lol as I learned interesting facts about spaceflight, sex research, and the afterlife, respectively. I reread Ender's Game in a single insomniac night. I borrowed Nick's copy of 2001: A Space Odyssey (the book) and devoured that - the movie makes SO MUCH MORE SENSE now.

Most recently, I've been working on opening up an Etsy shop, which contains items like this:

Yes, that's a mug of Nikola Tesla, the electric Jesus.  Yes, that's a reference to a certain drunken video.

Pretty much my shop is just an excuse for me to be as deeply crafty and nerdy as I want.

So now that I've got you all caught up on my life, expect more posts soon.

Love & ... Aliens?

"And I watched those constellations shift, hoping that they would part and I would see her face.  It was at that moment, in that very small town of 30,000 or so, that I truly appreciated the vastness of the universe and the searching we might do in it."  - John Hodgman

I don't have anything to add to this. It's funny and touching and weird. Just watch it.
