| Perhaps you want to vent about your first world problems, unless you're in a Communist country, in which case you vent about your second world problems. Unless you're in an unaligned developing country, in which case you bitch about your third world problems. Unless you're a hunter-gatherer nomad outside the realm of nation-states, in which case you bitch about your fourth world problems. Or perhaps you are a Lovecraftian cosmic entity from a sci-fi alternate dimension; then, you complain about your fifth world problems. But that's only if you're from the future -- monsters from the past complain about their fantasy world problems.. Humans from the past complain about ancient world problems. Unless you're really from the past, then you just talk about your prehistoric first world problems or your mesozoic world problems. And if none of the above is a problem for you, you're probably the type of fellow to suffer from time travel problems. to Culture by isosceles |

| Friday Jun 11, 2004 | Andrew Clay Silverstein called himself the "Diceman", but he wasn't the original. That honor belongs to George Cockcroft who, under the pseudonym Luke Rhinehart, wrote the 1970 novel The Dice Man. It's a fictional account of the life of a New York psychiatrist, also named Luke Rhinehart, who suddenly chooses to shake up his staid, prosaic life by giving over all his decisions to the literal roll of the die. The book was based on the author's real experiences of living randomly beginning in his teenage years, and it sparked a movement that continues today in various serious and not-so-serious forms. to Culture by yoyology |

to take something that's normally the domain of heavy industry and build a smaller version
in their basement or backyard. They normally end up learning
something, but more importantly, by homebuilding something industrial,
they seem to grab just a little bit of that heavy industry power for
themselves. The web is full of stories of home
