Another twenty like that, plus some lintels and maybe a couple of dozen nice bluestones from Wales, and we can party!' Whoever was the person behind Stonehenge was one dickens of a motivator, I'll tell you that."

Author: Jo Brand

The Furby with its expressions of fear and the gendered Nexi with her blindfold are the new uncanny in the culture of computing."

Author: Sianne Ngai

I already…yeah, I already know that, okay?"
Author: Stacia Kane

Author: Vijay Singh
