LadyGaga is a genius
I can elaborate later but just consider this: every pop star you’ve ever loved is fake. And she looks like she’s doing it right, though she’s clearly just playing to the hipster crowd and not the larger audience. But whatever - she’s right on point. Hipsters like their music stars accent-stuttered and glammed up. And it sounds like she plays great strip club music, which...
Deez nuts will make you sick
I’m not talking pistachio

I’m in a deli getting a pastrami sandwich and over the radio they mention something about the Unemployed Olympics… So this shit is for real. 1:30p at Tompkins Sq Pk. I’m bringing the camera…

Sunday morning, I was roused from my bedchamber by an insistent knock on my door. “Brian Van?” I called. Because really, who else could it be? (Also, I had previously been IMing with him in complaint for moving and taking his wireless signal with him.) I didn’t let him in because my apartment is an unholy mess which no one except Glynnis or boys I’m dating or making foolish decisions...
I just took a shit.

Should I wipe my ass? Internet, help meeeee!
Hey, anything that gets her off photo-picking duty for a while…
(That link is a substitute for all the times she or her close peers participated in “interesting” photo selections or exhibition contests over the last five years, and went with inspirational calendar-style horseshit or painfully awful HDR images or worse....

Bummer dudes.
Blargh. NYTimes, u r ded to me.

This is why we never should have meddled with bailouts in the first place. The mess this has made is not worth giving up all our power to government for some money to keep bad businseses afloat. It makes me sick. This is not what I want my government doing.
The solid counterargument to this is: GM never had to take the bailout money in the first place. They asked for it! If you...

Today, Around 5:45 am, my boyfriend woke me up and we starting having sex. About 7 seconds after we were done, he was on his laptop, going on tumblr. FML
Back in business. Home computer is hooked up. Still have some things to carry upstairs, unpack, put away, or even just organize and arrange. All in due time.
BTW why do I have an intense headache today? I want to crawl under my not-yet-unpacked bed sheets and hide for the day. Though that won’t happen because I’m now up and about. Just need some aspirin, I guess…
This evening has been exceptionally bizarre. DEVELOPING.
Sklar, watch your language!

Today, I accidentally clicked the link to SoupSoup’s Tumblr. FML
Never thought I’d say it, but I have a pretty legit need for a fanny pack right now. Need it to hold keys while moving. (dressing light and grungy, hence no pockets) If anyone has a dad I can borrow one from, that’d be sweet.
On that note, posting and reading will be light this weekend. Don’t burn the place down while I’m gone.

Just for BVan. Kisses.

Awwwww shucks.
Broadcasting from the new apartment. Cable just got hooked up.
Unfortunately I had little control over the incident that caused this following dilemma (other than, well, not being where I was and maybe standing in the back with all the normal people), but it is still remarkably bad form to lose a sneaker during a huge topple-over in the mosh pit at a concert, and end up wearing some girl’s pink-laced left-foot Sketchers for the rest of the show.
I have...
