“But in many ways, when I’m at a gas station in Allen County, Ohio and my attendant has most of their teeth pulled I have to remember I’m not living in ‘THE US-Fucking-A,’ but Allen County, which according to the research done above has an average lifespan of 71.9 years, putting it almost 10 years on average BELOW the US average, and which means I roughly am living in a part of the US with the equivalence of, according to Wikipedia, a place like El Salvador or Armenia.”

I always found it astounding how uniform America is in some aspects (think about popular culture, Walmart, daily life and customs), and at the same time be so completely diverse.

All on Tumblr now.

Wed, 02 May 2012 10:50:00 +0100

I moved my main blog over to Tumblr - it’s just nicer to use. I contemplated for a few months, but as with all things, I am super happy now.

The Feedburner feed is moved, so no worries if you were just reading through RSS anyways. The old posts will stay up for archiving reasons, but I will probably strip the rest down to the essentials.

I chose (and paid for - gasp) a really nice theme, you should give these guys a go. I also hax0red the sidebar a little to include angellist and vox.io.

Also: the domain is a lot shorter.
