Louis C.K. hates hecklers
First off, OMG. How much do you love Louis CK? Second off, I totally get what he means by preempting comebacks. That’s my literal bread and butter. Srsly.
WatchWhile in The Dominican Republic Eagle and I watched RT a lot. Not only was it one of the few English speaking channels but it also had magnificent coverage. There is a Russian slant (which happens to be very interesting in and of itself) but they really get to the bottom of what’s happening and report on stories that we don’t hear much about. Here’s one we ARE all watching...

HATERADE
Oh Gurl! Do you ever feel like sometimes something just happens and your hate flood gates pop open and every bit of every thing you harbor (hate wise) spills out onto the street in one felt swoop? It’s really no good and it’s something to avoid. Yesterday circa 5PM this happened to me. I used to find it was occuring more frequently but maybe it’s time to avoid it in general....
PIGS DON'T KNOW
The freshest collar I had was popped and it was mid day and the sun was shining and there were little donuts on the table resting like the bellies of fat men. Playfully rolling to and fro with the wind. Powdered sugar flaking off. I looked up at your face and you’re freckles were getting dark. And your hair was getting long and you seemed pissed off and me. I was only happy then. Later in the...
Internet Confessions (2009 Music Edition)
sexartandpolitics:
I do like Bitte Orca by Dirty Projectors and XX by The XX
I do not like Merriweather Post Paviliion by Animal Collective or Album by Girls.
I listened to Supernature by Goldfrapp more than anything else in 2009.
We’re in the literal exact same boat on Dirty Ps, XX and Merriweather (sorry suckers!).
THEY DON'T CALL HIM DOUCHEBAG CAMERON FOR NOTHING...
“PLAYBOY: How much did you get into calibrating your movie heroine’s hotness? CAMERON: Right from the beginning I said, “She’s got to have tits,” even though that makes no sense because her race, the Na’vi, aren’t placental mammals. I designed her costumes based on a taparrabo, a loincloth thing worn by Mayan Indians. We go to another planet in this...

Interview with the directors behind that awesome Yeasayer video.
(via bradc)
Ya’ll know Kevin Phillips shot that, right?
Also, Kevin, I have a present for you at my house from Dominican. See me later.
LOS RESOLUTIONZ
1. Enjoy food but don’t be addicted to it.
2. Stop being such a consumer/live with less.
3. Get rid of the clutter (read: excess clothing).
4. Make more music/movies = see your creations through.
5. Be OPEN to enlightenment in all forms.
6. Learn to cook more delicious things (read: make homemade pasta and always use it and give it as gifts to friends)
7. Learn to bake (even if just a...

Continues where it left off.
I might make a Frightened Rabbit lyric generator based on girls names.

STOOPID N' SICK →
“Beyonce performed for an hour on New Year’s Eve at a party thrown by terror-backing Libyan dictator Moammar Khadafy’s son, Hannibal, who has a long record of violence against women.”
BABYCAKES DOWNTOWN (SWEET FANGS)
Just one more reason for Eagle and I to miss the old place. Here’s something to note:
We like vegan food. We like it a lot.
We sometimes cook with TOFU (it’s baller).
Eagle’s sweet tooth would probably have appreciated this being so close to his elder home but oh well. Silver Lake, we’re looking at you kid.
“Owner Erin McKenna developed donuts, cupcakes, pies,...
Chocolate and Zucchini (Delicate/Lovin' It)
emac:
Chocolate and Zucchini is a food blog to which I subscribe. In her monthly newsletter for Janvier (yes, she’s French), she gives several french food idioms. This one made me laugh:
This week’s idiom is, “Être comme un coq en pâte.” Literally translated as, “Being like a rooster in dough,” it means feeling cosy and pampered, being in a state of absolute contentment, with one’s every...
I'LL BE BACK TOMORROW (WITH SERIOUS FUCKING TALES...
Don’t sleep on it.
I missed you.
More.
Than.
Ever.
