It's the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of The Phantom Tollbooth. Man, I do need to reread that.
The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction has gone online. Cool!
Warren Ellis on the changing business model of comics (paper, digital download, web-based).

I suspect that "Please stand by for a demonstration of relevancy" is going to be the next All Your Base Are Belong to Us. To wit.

Vanity Fair has a long profile of Elizabeth Warren.
Oh, good god. The guy who played Tooms on The X-files recently married a 17-year-old. Legal, but seriously skeevy.
Grantland also has an overview of the DC Comics reboot. So call it a retrenchment move disguised as a reimagining. A company doubling down on the kind of stuff that has, historically, brought surly 16-year-olds and grown-ass men with the taste of surly 16-year-olds in the door.
Lovely photos of autumn in the northern hemisphere.

s.e. smith at Tiger Beatdown on the endless abuse taken by openly feminist bloggers. Very few people openly discuss it because they feel like it's feeding the trolls, giving them the attention they want.
Bookmarked for later reading: Secrets of the Deep, a long New Yorker piece about undersea salvage.
