- My hair is behaving well today. I'm a hair dye from looking like a jpop star (a guy, not a girl). Most excellent hair!

- The new Gorillaz album. suavebastard recced it, is it awesome. I'm currently loving Rhinestone Eyes more than I should. Also, the video for Stylo? Sweet, sweet cars. Awesome song. Also, Bruce Willis ( Read more... )

There's an itinerant exposition opening in Madrid, in a sort of commemoration of LGTB rights and the media struggle that the debate went through before gay marriages and adoptions were made legal in Spain. It's about 150 works, with about 90 chosen for the itinerant expo, and the group that has been working on this the past few years is looking for ( Read more... )

I'm reading a bunch of Super-family titles, and I'm loving them! I started reading Power Girl this month thanks to skund's rec, and it's so much fun! I really recommend picking that one up. The art is gorgeous and it's funny and crazy and Karen is very cool ( Read more... )

...with that happy-new-year-smell. I'm listening to Julian Plenti -the solo project of Interpol's lead guy, who is not called Julian Plenti, whatever- and allowing him to slowly drag me further into bummerland ( Read more... )

From Joey Comeau I am other people, Helen DeWitt:

Part of the attraction of a different language, though, is that the mind, immersed in this new medium, finds the possibility of a different self. When people do ugly things they don't use a separate language for them - so the words we use every day, 'if', 'and', 'the', 'but', 'you', bring back ( Read more... )

I am reading 'House of Leaves'. It is so incredibly frustrating, I want to smash the book around, lol. vigilante_wake kindly gave it to me as a present, and I am actually enjoying the story a lot, but urgg arggg I also want to punch the book in the mouth for being so smug!!! 'See Appendix IV' *goes to see Appendix IV, 500 pages away from where she's reading* ' ( Read more... )

Oh man, one of the downsides of winter is that I can't stop eating. Pretty much everything sounds tasty right now -with the exception of not tasty things. I just finished my second dinner and if you were to offer me roasted chicken -I am.. very partial to roasted chicken- I would devour it as well. Mannn why is it so cooolllldddd ( Read more... )

The fabulous taro_twist recommended me Pattern Recognition (by William Gibson) after hearing me babble happily about the Sprawl trilogy. I have fallen in love with Gibson's style after a luke-warm start -Neuromancer is not exactly easy-reading given all the things you have to learn about the future/present to get it. But after Burning Chrome, I just can't ( Read more... )

I am in a really pissy mood after D decided to stood me up and then eventually showing up 6 hours late to go finish packing the office stuff. I don't really care about his excuses. I know his sleeping schedule is fucked up -I've been there myself- but the bottom line is that had I been anyone else, he wouldn't have abused my time like this. So, ( Read more... )

So.. I kind of don't have anything to post tonight. I had an extra-annoying day at work today, and I feel like I really, really ought to quit it because I'm not learning anything useful and I hate it and it's killing me inside.. but I tend to quit everything I start, so I wonder if I should stick to it a while longer, see if it goes.. anywhere ( ( Read more... )
