I don’t suppose my client will extend my deadline because I just finished a really awesome anime and can’t possibly think of anything else right now because I’m basically curled up in a ball weeping?

I’m really impressed that I recovered enough to say “Thank you, sir” while urine was running down my leg.

This is the last thing I’ll reblog on the topic. Is a lie.

It’s also really exciting because it has a HUGE impact on the ads that pop up around the web. I’ll be poking around looking for remixes of Russian pop songs (as you do) and then all of a sudden GOUT PILLS

I love my job, but it causes me to research strange things on a weekly basis. I sometimes wonder what someone looking through my search history would think of me. For the month of January, it would appear I was infertile, suffering from gout, in dire need of a new cell phone plan, and seriously considering joining the Army.

These color photographs were all taken in the Russian Empire between 1909 and 1918.

Sergei Prokudin-Gorskii was a Russian photographer born in 1863. After studying chemistry with Mendeleev and later with Adolf Miethe, Gorskii started developing his own techniques and processes of color photography, giving it a quality that impresses even today.
In 1909, he convinced the Tsar Nicolas II to send him on a trip across the Russian Empire to document its impressive diversity. It was a 10-year project, during which Gorskii took over 10,000 pictures.

The diversity of the people, and the shockingly modern colors of their portraits, make them impossible to forget. They are our contemporaries, now that they stopped hiding between the unfocused black-and-whiteness.

They are almost too present. [via]
