Sigh.

MASTER DONG SAYS:

Thank the Great Lord Dionysus for Facebook!  You were obviously quite concerned that you might be a total lame-ass poser, and now, thanks to that wonderfully insightful and informative quiz, you can rest assured that you are a genuine person and a positive contributor to society. I for one have decided to accept all facebook quiz results as ultimate truths, and it has had a positive effect on my life. Back when I saw a shrink he would question me and study my behaviors intensely for months, and the only thing I got in exchange were meaningless words such as “Pathological” and “pre-psychotic.”  In just three minutes on facebook, I learned that I am actually a deeply caring and wonderful human being.  You see, the shrink wasted too much time asking about pointless things like my childhood at the sex farm, or my obsession with snuff porn. Facebook quizzes focus on the real important issues, like what I like for breakfast or what kind of car I think most resembles my personality.

In fact, I like these quizzes so much that I decided to stop seeing the doctor entirely.  I even get my HIV testing via Facebook quiz now.  The best part?  If you don’t like the results, you can just take the quiz again and again until you get the desired outcome.

And that’s how a Facebook Quiz eradicated AIDS!

Miles Fisher
“This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody)”

The world didn’t need another cover of this Talking Heads song, but putting it in the context of Mary Harron’s film adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis’ American Psycho is a brilliant touch. Fisher convincingly slips into the Christian Bale role, and the visual design is flawless. This is a truly great music video.

Lavender Diamond
“Like A Prayer”

Much in the way the video for Miles Fisher’s cover of “This Must Be The Place” makes a pleasant but ultimately unnecessary cover of a classic song feel fresh in a new context, this video makes an asset of our over-familiarity with the source material. This isn’t some commentary on Madonna the celebrity/artist, but instead some kind of  silly impressionistic take on being a girlish Madonna fan in the late 80s. It’s all wide-eyed innocence and cutesiness, but the sexuality and tension with religion and patriarchy in Madonna’s song is present, if buried under the surface. Just as it was when we were kids, that subtext is intuited, but not fully understood. (via Liz)

Wednesday: You have taken the land which is rightfully ours. Years from now my people will be forced to live in mobile homes on reservations. Your people will wear cardigans, and drink highballs. We will sell our bracelets by the road sides, you will play golf, and enjoy hot hors d’oeuvres. My people will have pain and degradation. Your people will have stick shifts. The gods of my tribe have spoken. They have said, “Do not trust the Pilgrims, especially Sarah Miller.”
Amanda: Gary, she’s changing the words.
Wednesday: And for all these reasons I have decided to scalp you and burn your village to the ground.

Today I went to a service for one of my mom’s co-workers. His name was Jimmy. His partner hosted it their home. Jimmy was only 42 and he died a week ago. He had adopted his sisters son because she was unfit to raise him herself. Jimmy and Drew took on the challenging task of raising a toddler with ADD who had been bounced from foster home to foster home his whole life. Drew and Jimmy had been together for 18 years. They were a beautiful couple. At the service, Drew was devestated. He could barely let out two sentences without letting out a dry sob. He would grab and hug his son at every opportunity, even though Bruce didn’t really understand what was happening. Drew was an emotional wreck. He was overwhelmed. He was devestated. He was scared. He was alone. All I could think of was how beautiful love is, no matter its form. A lot of people think gay relationships are just based on socially unacceptable sex and perverted fantasies. You don’t get that broken up over someone like Drew did just because you can’t have sex with them anymore. Even though Drew was in terrible shape, it made me so happy to know a love as strong as theirs exists in the world.

I think everyone needs to read this.

Idiot.

“Los Angeles County sheriff’s detectives are investigating an assault on a 12-year-old middle school boy in Calabasas who may have been targeted after a Facebook group urged students to beat up redheads, a sheriff’s official said today.

The boy was kicked and hit in two separate incidents on the campus of A.E. Wright Middle School in Calabasas by as many as 14 of his classmates, Lt. Richard Erickson said. The students who participated in the attack may have been motivated by a Facebook message telling them that Nov. 20 was “Kick a Ginger Day,” Erickson said, but had few other details about the message.”
