With the SOPA and PIPA blackouts I won’t post all the awesome Snowpocalypse pictures today.

-If I was geeky enough to actually black out my site, I would.

A new friend sent me a link to this beautiful painting by Holly Friesen:

The blog he found it on, unabashedly female, is also chockful of inspiring things.

Enjoy!

My heartsister Sharon’s new blog!

Go swim in her lovely, clear stream of nourishment and refresh your tired ol’ life.

I promise.

My ‘new’ computer is glitchy as all hell and it’s been a bit of a rough ol’ life lately. Hopefully this latest fix is the charm and it’s all happy again.

Thanks for the fan love, ’specially Colin and Rita-you guys rock!
xOxOxOx,
Zan

Thank you Vickie! I can blog again!(happy blogger dance)

Phewph-I’ve been unable to access my blog for the last three weeks or so, ever since my ‘puter and I got hit by a nasty virus.

What a relief!

Expect lots of posts, soon! Along with all the pretty pictures I couldn’t upload because my camera got run over while sledding-what’s with the rotten technokarma lately anyway?

My friend Snybod wrote this awesome article on our tanking credit-happy economy.

My favorite quote:

‘Because when we ignore future consequences, we can make lots of money with the lie that giving money to the rich will improve everyone’s life. My little perpetual motion machine works great as long as you guys turn the handle, and you guys drop money in it, and you guys pour in natural resources, and you guys clean up the trail of sludge it leaves behind, and you guys bend the rules to allow it to get bigger, and you guys pocket some blood money, and I take the profits and run. Who in this scenario is guilty of short-term thinking? Every person participating who cares more about money than about the future. We are all guilty.’

Amen, Snybod!

And speaking of amen, did you happen to see his post on Christians worshipping the Golden Bull of Mammon?

Snort!!!

XKCD cracks me up-when I’m not in over my not-so-geeky head.

On nihilism, on making the world a weirder place, on google maps, on overanthropomorphizing machinery and of course, for today, the election:

I am so pathetically devoid of geek skilz-sorry for all the futzing around tonight.

I finally decided to update Wordpress after 2 years of Breakingsod and even with my friend Jeff running the show, we still managed to break it a few times-Thanks Jeff, for hanging in there and getting the header back!

Now if only there was something I could do about the butt-ugly textbox background colors.

DOH! Sam just pointed out that my ‘Love wields a shovel’ tagline disappeared too!

Sigh. At least it’s working!

Azra’s resurfaced!

I love this woman. Her gorgeous paintings, ambling sketches, goddess chasing… Love it when she vents her goofiness in cartoon form, or tells her curious, capricious tales.

Ah, Azra. It would so be worth the trip to the woebegone wildlands of Tennessee, just to get chased off her Bertgarten Sage by her wicked sharp tongue, fierce gaze and slavering tiger-sized grimalkins.

Welcome back to the virtual world.

Finally, my flickr account is working again!(thanks D, I owe you… well, YOU know what I owe you)

Go see pretty girls dancing and all the other cool photo sets I’ve been waiting ever so long to upload.
