    “In this sense, bureaucracies may be thought of as vast systems of organized irresponsibility.”

    — Robert Jackall, an American sociologist and author of the book Moral Mazes: The World of Corporate Managers, based on his field research in the early 1980s on the subject of bureaucracy and corporate organizations.

    “The rules you grow up with are what make you, as a person and as a designer. The trick is to remember, every once in a while, to fuck them up a little.”

    Herman Melville Likes Your Beard

    towirr:

    Or as he calls them, in order, in two chapters of White Jacket:

    • beards
    • the crop
    • suburbs of the chin
    • homeward-bounders
    • fly-brushes
    • long, trailing moss hanging from the bough of some aged oak
    • love-curls
    • Winnebago locks
    • carroty bunches
    • rebellious bristles
    • redundant mops
    • yellow bamboos
    • long whiskers
    • thrice-noble beards
    • plantations of hair
    • whiskerandoes
    • nodding harvests
    • viny locks
    • the fleece
    • fine tassels
    • goatees
    • imperials
    • sacred things
    • admiral’s pennant
    • manhood
    • muzzle-lashings

    “The Pentagon presently spends more in constant dollars than it did at any time during the Cold War — this despite the absence of anything remotely approximating what national security experts like to call a “peer competitor.” Evil Empire? It exists only in the fevered imaginations of those who quiver at the prospect of China adding a rust-bucket Russian aircraft carrier to its fleet or who take seriously the ravings of radical Islamists promising from deep inside their caves to unite the Umma in a new caliphate. What are Americans getting for their money? Sadly, not much. Despite extraordinary expenditures (not to mention exertions and sacrifices by U.S. forces), the return on investment is, to be generous, unimpressive. The chief lesson to emerge from the battlefields of the post-9/11 era is this: the Pentagon possesses next to no ability to translate “military supremacy” into meaningful victory.”

    The Bermuda Triangle of Productivity - where does all the time go?

    >Massive/wallpaper sized version here!<

    I drew this one day after two unrelated friends complained about how they get sucked into certain websites instead of doing work, which is exactly what I do. I think….this maybe, possibly, maybe happens to some other people as well.

    Heads of state in order of succession for the US and China, and their college majors. Notice anything? Full article here.

    (Thanks, Cayman)

    Yeah! If we want to beat the Chinese, we’re totally going to have to sue their asses…

    If we try, they might build a bridge out of us.

    This is actually fascinating. Paging The Atlantic Business Channel…
