Busy So Some Links!

I'm busy compiling a glossary and starting on making an evaluation metric for the results we get from alpha testing, so I won't have much to say. And if that last bit of the sentence confused you; I have to come up with a viable way to "grade" the performance of kids that play the game in a way that shows whether or not they are actually thinking about things when they play. Since I came up with the scoring system (that was several days staring at Excel, too XD) and the parts rankings, they figured it was natural for me to develop the research instruments (technical term!) for that.

So ah, have the stuff I've been reading the past few days when my brain gets stuck and I need to unstick it:

- We just don't have the resources to make playable male characters in games! Yes, this is satire.

- Successful people are just as insecure as you are, they just learn to get over it.

- Government jobs are opening up all over the place. Like daisies!

- 101 Ways to Cheer Yourself Up I love these lists, because they are inspiring.

- On Being Victimized By a Real Life AOL Chat Perv.

- Wardrobe Refashion shoots down your excuses for not sewing. Kind of apt considering I've gotten used to my newer sewing machine and am tackling the stack of Goodwill shirts I meant to alter.

- Chicks with tattoos are not homewreckers. In fact, they're pretty awesome.

- New Hipster Slur: Fauxhemians. It's kind of clever.

- Gaga, Postmodernism, and Altermodernism. Crunchy thoughts, whose mileage will vary WILDLY depending on who you are.

- And via [personal profile] glass_icarus; The Cost of Art, or when you are being edgy and when you are being a dickweed, an essay.
