The Cloud of Unknowing (link roundup)



The Cloud of Unknowing via these sites. Assuming it's the same novel, Amazon says, "Written by an anonymous English monk during the late fourteenth century, The Cloud of Unknowing is a sublime expression of what separates God from humanity and is widely regarded as a hallmark of Western literature and spirituality."

And a few more links:

1. Terminator vs. Alien. Via.

2. Good song, probably NSFW video - - The Rabbit by Mike Snow.

3. Melissa Sue Stanley's Etsy shop is once again full of strange creatures.

Emo Terminator (link roundup)



Emo Terminator by J Salvador on sale at Etsy.

And a few more links:

1. Particularly good photo of Amanda Visell's recent Primeval Love show at the Natural History Museum in LA.

2. Good commentary on tech bloggers calling for Apple to sue Gizmodo:
Apparently some of them also think it is better to call for companies or governments to sue hacks who step out of line and actually dare to print a story that is off the roadmap of PR releases and propaganda.
3. "In the middle of Bay Lake, deep within the heart of the Walt Disney World property, lies Discovery Island. It is a former wildlife attraction/sanctuary that was closed in 1999 and has been left to run wild since." So these people snuck out and took photos. Via.
