  1. Now that's a quotable answer: At the end of 2012, according to EOO, a “rich list” for Chinese literature was revealed, and 31 year old Zhang Wei (who writes using the pen name Tangjia Sanshao) was listed as the richest man in the world of Chinese online literature, with earnings of 33 million yuan over the preceding five years. Of course, to earn that much money, Zhang pumps out an average of 10,000 characters per day. And when asked what it was like to write 26.9 million words over that period, he simply replied, “My hands are sore.”
  2. Oh the memes, they keep on going...
  3. But it is kind of true...
  4. Watched the first couple of episodes of that Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Interesting and engaging so far, although I do kind of miss some of the cheesy humour. They do seem to have focused on pushing the gothic horror and weirdness aspect to the story. Plus, I'll admit, I did have a slight crush on Melissa Joan Hart when I was a teenager watching the old show, so I kind of miss that.
  5. Wilfred DeFour was an aircraft technician with the Tuskegee Airmen has passed away in New York City at the age of 100.
  6. For the technical slice of trivia today... Tumblrs porn ban is going about as badly as expected In fact for the added snigger, Tumblr's actual blog post announcing their cleanup... was flagged as explicit content by the algorithm...
  7. Crows have been documented holding "funerals" for many years. However, researchers suggest that they may not be mourning; evidence indicates that crows may be examining the body and surrounding area for potential threats to the rest of the flock. So, it's not strictly speaking a funeral, it's more of an autopsy and criminal investigation. In fact, you might even call it... a murder invesetigation.
