Awesome analysis on how looks, message length, exact words used, race, and religion affect response rates on their dating site.

I haven’t done the online dating thing (yet), but this is pretty interesting.

You’re right, Erina!  Saturday the 12th!

It has been changed.  Thanks for calling to attention my idiocy.

Heh, no problem, I was just confused!

"[I]f you have a peg leg or hooks for hands then maybe it’s enough to simply keep on living. You know, bravely facing life with your disability. But without these things you’re actually meant to make something of your life, achieve something earn a raise, wear a necktie."

Agent Fox Mulder, X-Files, “Quagmire” episode

I heard this in the background while sitting at my desk, winding down from work. In context, the quote includes a few allusions to Moby Dick that are lost on me. This portion is the pertinent part to me.

I’ve often had the same thought: that things would be nicer if my standards were automatically lowered by virtue of a disability. That line of thought is similar to “I wish I was a cat. Then all day I would either be eating or sleeping.”

Certainly it would be nice, but ultimately unfulfilling. (Except that, maybe, if you were a cat, you wouldn’t care about fulfillment in the way that we typically mean it.) I’m not exactly sure what I mean by “unfulfilling.”

X-Files gets an auto reblog. It was my favorite show in middle/high school and this was one of my favorite episodes.

BTW

Dang, tumblrs and bikes. Wish I could make it, but I’m heading down to san antonio for a half marathon. If I survive, I’ll try to make the next one.

Bring your bikes to the Tumblr meet-up if you have ‘em.  Maybe we can go on a bikeventure through downtown afterward.
