Serious:
From deusinnomen and lanikei, both passing on information from trusted reliable sources:
kittybecca's house burned down recently, and her family lost -everything- but themselves and their pets.
You can read aiobheil's post about it here, shadesong's here, and the page with PayPal donation link here. Please help, and please pass this on.

Nifty:
From lisa in lj_support: LJ using spamhaus.org lists to block anonymous comments from known spammers.

Petty, but still nifty:
From subbes, for all those folks who seem to care about who "friend"ed them, they're pretty lame, but something may be done to ameliorate their heartbreaking situation soon anyway.

Amusing:
Also from subbes, House of Commons seeks to enter "Silliest Motion" competition. Apparently.

Also amusing:
Courtesy Neil Gaiman's blog, passed on by antikate, The March of the Sinister Ducks. They smirk at your hairstyle and sleep with your wife... DUCKS! DUCKS!
