Blogging Psuedonyms

So I normally don't like to post to other blogs. Unless those blogs are particularly unheard of or just wicked cool. Yes, wicked cool. But, here a well known political blog that's name ends in the feminine "ette" suffix, yet they are amazed when people refer to it with a feminine pronoun, describes the dangers of using blogging pseudonyms and how they just might not work as well as you'd think they would.

Moral of the story? You other fools better come up with a plan B in case someone finds out who you are. It's a good thing I really am the Scarlet Pimpernel!

Stooper Heroes

Superheroes Anonymous brings superheroes into real life - taking to the streets and becoming a visible icon of community service and activism. We create the change by helping the needy, fund-raising, combating crime and inspiring others to take action.

And a video

And more amateur superheroes

Pictures too!

Though a note: if you're going to "fight crime" or go "patrolling the streets", don't carry around a fake gun. You'll get your ass shot. (Though, if you look at the cities these superheroes patrol, I'm not too worried.)

Seriously, what the fuck? It's time for some people to move out of their parents basement.
