A Funkaoshi Production

About photographer JJ Levine. He’s produced a lot of interesting stuff.

Another big story about Twitter. I guess with the IPO looming all these stories are getting told.

This looks pretty swanky. It’s a node.js application you need to deploy yourself, so it’s basically only for turbo-nerds at the moment.

The TTC has probably wasted so many millions of dollars on half finished projects, money they should have spent hiring a god damn PR firm. Apparently Rob Ford doesn’t want to build the Downtown Relief Line. Maybe they should rename it the Commuter Relief Line? That seems kind of obvious, right? Where does Rob Ford think people hoping on the Yonge line are going?

For his upcoming film Nymphomaniac, Danish director Lars von Trier is using the genitals of porn actors having intercourse and superimposing them underneath the torsos of the movie’s cast during sex scenes.

Not sure what else I can say about that. The posters for the film, which you can see on the official website, are ridiculous.

The man behind Adventure Time made another cartoon that’s all on Youtube.

No, apparently.

Is there anything grosser than the pickup artist community?

This article is pretty juicy.

Super Mario Bros. in HTML5.

NSFW, but very cool. (More photos at the artist’s site.)

Of course he did.

If you ignore the M2, M3, M4, M6, M7 and MP.

Rob Ford is a champion when it comes to dodging scandal.

A pretty thorough look at the whole Silk Road shut down. This story is crazy. Why would you run a site like Silk Road in the United States of America?

By 2013, Silk Road had nearly one million user accounts. In the 2.5 years the site operated, it facilitated 1.2 million transactions worth 9.5 million Bitcoins—or about $1.2 billion in total money exchanged. (Bitcoin values varied widely over this period.) Roberts picked up a cool $80 million in commissions.

Crazy.

I guess she still has something to say. (She was in prison for 3 months for tax evasion.)

The U.S. government obtained a secret court order demanding that Edward Snowden’s e-mail provider, Lavabit, turn over its private SSL key, which would have allowed the FBI to wiretap the service’s users.

He shut down the service to avoid paying $5000 in fines. America brings the creepy-ass-creepy.

Me and my friend Rishi were carded like this a couple of times when we were in high school or university, back when we’d hangout in front of the public school in my neighbourhood at night drinking bubble tea. On the memories. The Star also has also posted online an article from a former police officer.

The government has partially shutdown because Republicans wants Democrats to further compromise on Obamacare by delaying it a year. Here’s my own healthcare compromise from the time I guest vlogged on Jay Smooth’s brilliant ILL DOCTRINE.

Congress shutdown the US government. Seriously.
