Letter by an anarchist, explaining why the Vancouver riots were clearly not the work of ‘anarchists’
"As Facebook is gradually revealing, this was more of a drunken holler from the suburbs than a scream from the margins. ... The property damage last week was random. I do not know of many pinkos coveting this season's Coach bag"

Is it legal to ‘out’ rioters or ID them as criminals, especially if they’re under 18?
Short answer: not really. Though helping to identify them is a good thing, at a certain point, the justice system has to do what it's supposed to do.

One of the Vancouver rioters has posted a public apology, and responds to the “social media mob”
camillecacnio: "I want to shed light onto the thought process that was in my head so that maybe you can all get a little bit of an understanding and sympathize for people like me, who made wrong decisions but have now become victims of this social media form of mob mentality." Uh, no. You're not a victim.

An intense collection of Dr Who Girl’s Knickers by a moderately odd man
This pleases me for several reasons, none of which has to do with the actual purpose of the site. I love that the Internet allows my friends to share things like this with me, I love that people are so wonderfully weird, I love that Doctor Who has been around for so long, and I love the human voice running through the whole site. The knickers themselves, ehh. 😊

50,000 people sued by USCG for BitTorrent downloads of ‘The Hurt Locker’ and ‘Expendables’
If 10,000 people settle for $2,000 each, 'The Hurt Locker' will earn more from suing than it did at the box office.
