Wikipedia doesn't love me
A while ago, somebody put up a Wikipedia entry for my “Grim Meathook Future” essay.

Talib Kweli – Ear Drum
In direct counterpoint to Kanye’s humdrum Graduation, Talib Kweli’s newest album, Ear Drum, is intelligent and way groovier. Better flow, better beats, better everything. Go buy it.
On A Diet
I’m at the end of the second day of a 14 day diet. All raw vegetables, with sushi allowed (for protein). Tonight I broke down and ate three very small cheese enchiladas. Fuck, I had to — I feel like hell. After two weeks of this, it’s two weeks of juice fasting. Meaning just juice. […]
