The Guardian takes a look at Harper-Collins’ new deal with Sainsburys, and aren’t terribly impressed. It’s not a bad article, but it decends into snobbery at the end. And stealing insults from Capote.

Animals on the Underground tickles me. Well, what else are you going to do when your train’s late and you’re stuck in a tunnel that’s older than London’s sewer system?

I saw X-Men: First Class a couple of weeks ago, and found it problematic but hugely entertaining (like what seems like most of the internet). Even better, it’s inspired a ton of awesome x-men related posts around the internet. Like Fucking Magnetos – How Do They Work? over at Overthinking It (a new favourite blog). Geeky science! io9 proves that the X-men have the crappiest lives. Marvel.com, meanwhile, have put a ton of their old cartoons online, including The Animated Series, Evolution and Wolverine and the X-men. And a load of others, of course, but what can I say? I’ve been an x-girl since my stepdad gave me all his old comics and I got to plow through the Phoenix Saga and the Hellfire Club and Days of Future Past.
