What Queerness Means To Me « Tranarchism
I remember playing pretend games with my brother when he was really little. For a happy ending to one epic struggle of good versus evil, he wanted all the dolls/“action figures” to “all get married together”—boys, girls, witches, dragons, demons, whatever, united in a big happy pansexual polygamous clusterfuck. I remember explaining to him that you couldn’t do that, that marriage was between two people, usually a man and a woman. Forgive me. The innocence of children with regard to love, romance, gender, friendship and relationships is truly beautiful. I lost it. But my own angsty odyssey of identity isn’t really what I want to talk about. Isn’t it weird that we’re all supposed to feel one way about friends, another about family, and another about lovers? Queerness, to me, is about far more than homosexual attraction. This is a somewhat controversial stance, but to me queer means something completely different than “gay” or “lesbian” or “bisexual.” At least, that is what it means to me.

Dokumentinis filmas apie „The Pirate Bay“ – vasario 8 dieną
Dokumentinis filmas apie „The Pirate Bay“ „TPB AFK“ pasirodys vasario 8 dieną 63-ojo tarptautinio kino festivalio Berlyne metu. Tokią žinią paskelbė filmo režisierius Simonas Klose. Jau anksčiau rašėme apie pavasarį pasirodysiantį filmą, tačiau tada dar nebuvo paskelbtos tikslios jo išleidimo datos. Įdomu, kad filmo kūrėjai tikisi, jog jų kūrinio peržiūra taps didžiausia visų laikų premjera pasaulyje. Juk kol vieni žiūrės filmą Berlyno kino teatre, kiti galės matyti jį nemokamai internete. „TPB AFK“ filmas daugiausia finansavimo sulaukė iš „Kickstarter“ sistemos narių. „Nenoriu daug pasakoti apie filmą, nes žmonės patys turi jį pažiūrėti ir suvokti.

The wet umbrella problem has been solved with a simple design tweak | News
The design of the umbrella hasn’t really changed that much since they were first invented, and that has a lot to do with the fact the design just works. You open a canopy above your head and it stops you getting wet in the rain. In recent times we’ve seen umbrellas get much more compact so they are easier to carry around when not in use. One problem remains, though, and that’s how exactly you handle a soaking wet umbrella once out of the rain. Japanese designer Hiroshi Kajimoto has come up with a clever solution to the wet umbrella problem, however. The clever bit is the placement of the metal frame on the outside of the canopy rather than inside like we have today. As is typical with new and clever designs that come to market, the Unbrella is by no means cheap. Now read: Invisible umbrella creates shield of wind, soaks innocent bystanders
