Principia Discordia

If you feel there are any sites which update frequently and that a Discordian might like, I would like you to post a link here.

For example:

http://whoisioz.blogspot.com/ - amusing, erudite, astoundingly condescending minarchist/anarchist makes fun of everyone, usually a few times a day.

http://chaosmarxism.blogspot.com/ - Combining Critical Theory, Chaos Magick and memes for fun and profit the proletarian revolution!

http://renegadefuturist.com/ - Futurism for the counterculture

http://worldofweirdthings.com/ - according to them its "about researching big things and looking for the amazing, the unexpected and illuminating facts in a new light."

http://www.warrenellis.com/ - a favourite comic writer of many Discordians

http://cryptogon.com/ - sometimes conspiratorial but always sourced take on politics, the economy, science etc

http://ifyoulikeitsomuchwhydontyougolivethere.com/ - stupid people on the internet are always funny.

Go!

http://www.schneier.com/blog/ interesting, low-technical background information about tech and no-tech security related matters (such as how useful airport and/or terrorism security measures actually are) (they arent)

http://www.overcomingbias.com/ quite a bunch of interesting articles. some are a bit disagreeable and/or airheaded futuristic theoretical. TBH i don't follow the feed, just browsed the archive quite a lot. it does update regularly though.

Schneier is one I considered adding, but didn't for some reason.  I keep forgetting about Overcoming Bias though, so thanks for that.

http://www.greylodge.org/gpc/ - Cool art, music, films, torrents and other weird and wonderful stuff.

http://journal.neilgaiman.com/ - its Neil Gaiman, nuff said

http://thepiratesdilemma.com/ - Matt Mason's blog on internet piracy, the music industry and punk capitalism

http://www.mindhacks.com/ - Neuroscience and psychology

http://www.disinfo.com/content/index.php  Interesting news feed

http://urbanprankster.com/  Urban Prankster covers pranks, hacks, participatory art, flash mobs, and other creative endeavors that take place in public places in cities across the world.

http://www.woostercollective.com/ Fun and interesting street art

http://chaoskeptic.blogspot.com/  *cough*

I've personally found Disinfo to have a higher noise/signal ratio than they used to have, but still, some of their stuff is reasonable.

Some more political blogs, just to be contentious:

http://www.sadlyno.com/ - The undisputed Kings and Queen of centre-left political commentary and comedy.

http://www.highclearing.com/ - Unqualified Offerings: libertarianism without the wingnuttery or disdain for everyone else

http://www.stiftungleostrauss.com/bunker/ - Stop the Spirit of Zossen: "A community exploring the philosophical, historical, cultural, aesthetic and operational foundations of this regime and its associated Movements' determined assault on on our liberal democracy."

http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald - Constitutional lawyer Glenn Greenwald, sticking it to The Man and The Media

Some more

http://trueslant.com/jeffkoyen/ - Strange news from around the world

http://whiskeyfire.typepad.com/whiskey_fire/ - delicious political snark from an American English professor

http://politeaparty.blogspot.com/ - third party opposition to the two-party system

http://www.fmylife.com - proof of Eris' divine hand in every day happenings

http://unspeak.net/ - words are weapons: a blog on the political (ab)use of language

http://stopmebeforeivoteagain.org/ - "There's certainly no safety in the Democratic Party's "big tent," as the last two elections -- some would say, the last ten -- have shown clearly enough."

http://www.feministing.com/ - Because women can spread Chaos, too. Also: most whackjobs hate them, so why not source them?

http://dailygrail.com/ - Can you trust your conspiracy dealer?

http://dev.null.org/blog/ - Old-school Usenet Discordian. A constant reminder of the mediocrity most of us dare not aspire to.

Also: can we RSS-syndicate a message board? I think that would be killer.

http://vigilantcitizen.com/ - Conspiracy theories about pop culture.

I dunno bout Feministing...they do attract a nutjob hatedom, its true, but they're kinda crazy themselves (apparently, making fun of fat people is morally worse than torture, and led to Dick Cheney's election).  I prefer Pandagon.net for Feminism, and I Hate The Patriarchy for crazy, but I admit I didn't read Feministing much after the Making Fun Of Fat People Is A Crime Against Humanity incident and they might have improved.

This board has an RSS feed.

Pandagon has a history of race-fail and so they invited a token black woman to blog with them.

Hell, why not read them all? It's kind of fun to watch the cliques interlink themselves, tearing apart pop culture ten ways of Sunday.

As for the board's RSS feed: shit, who looks at the address bar anymore? (Thanks for the eye's up.)

This is true.

Also, a few more

http://unreasonable.org/ - Tom Swiss, Discordian blogger

http://mutualist.blogspot.com/ - Kevin Carson, he makes libertarianism look unstupid (no, srsly, the guy is wikkid smaht).

http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/ - er, hacking and computer security and privacy and stuff.  Is good.

http://www.spectator.co.uk/melaniephillips/ - she's, uh, well, insane.  In a bad way.  Which makes her highly enjoyable to read and mock.

I encourage people to go make comments which link to 23ae.com -- get some more readers for our pet project.

I'll be doing this later, too.

Shameless self-promotion

http://alamut.wordpress.com/

Also http://duhexenhase.blogspot.com/

If I can get more access to the back end of the Verwirrung Wordpress, and some help upgrading it to the most recent version, we can have RSS streams of all of these auto-post to the Blog. I'd also recommend Johnny Brainwash's two sites, http://dysnomia.us and http://shutupyouareanidiot.com/blog/

bad ass! THAT'S the solution to us never posting there... throw 23ae on the roll too

http://www.modemac.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl/Bulldada_Newsblog

Because its awesome.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/adamcurtis/

Adam Curtis, the documentary maker who did The Power Of Nightmares and The Century of the Self (among others), has a BBC blog.  He rarely ever updates it, but when he does, it is worth reading.

http://gralienreport.com/ A good source of high weirdness, with minimal crazy
http://rigint.blogspot.com/ A good source of high weirdness, with maximal crazy
And in the service of shameless self promotion:
http://firstchurchofspacejesus.blogspot.com A good source of Enki with maximal high weirdness
http://hypertextpoetry.blogspot.com A good source of crazy with maximal Enki

BUMP so I could recommend Masks of Eris:  http://masksoferis.wordpress.com/

Thank you all so much for posting these. These are great and shall save me many an afternoon from boredom.
:lulz:

http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/ Amusing.

http://c4ss.org/  - althought most of us here are not anarchists or libertarians, the Center For A Stateless Society has a number of good writers, who make sensible points far more frequently than, say, NYT op-ed writers (though of course this is not especially difficult).
