My latest "Attack of the 5'2' Woman" column, O Big Brother, Where Art Thou?, is now available at Pop Thought.
For the quote of the day, a little dystopian Rousseau, Zamyatin-style:
A thousand years ago your heroic forebears subjugated the whole of planet Earth to the power of OneState. It is for you to accomplish an even more glorious feat: by means of the glass, the electric, the fire-breathing INTEGRAL to integrate the indefinite equation of the universe. It is for you to place the beneficial yoke of reason round the necks of the unknown beings who inhabit other planets – still living, it may be, in the primitive state known as freedom. If they will not understand that we are bringing them a mathematically infallible happiness, we shall be obliged to force them to be happy.
from We by Yevgeny Zamyatin
