You are undernourished and your diet for days has been barbeque sauce, sodium and meat. You are constantly hungover or half drunk on Lone Star, which of all the beers in the world is the beer that tastes most like beer. You rush from bar to bar to bar to band to band to band. All of your friends…
Follow my friend Kate for occasional poetry like this that is good and true.
For Tony Stark’s big assembly with The Avengers last year, Robert Downey Jr. revealed he insisted on having actress Gwyneth Paltrow reprise her Iron Man role as well. “I was like, ‘You can’t just pretend that I got in a fight with Rhodey and Pepper’s out of town,’” Downey Jr. said during an Iron Man 3 press event. “They said, ‘You can’t have both of them,’ so I said, ‘All right, I need Pepper.’” Now withIron Man 3 fleshing out Tony and Pepper’s relationship, furthermore, “I thought, ‘OK, what do we want Gwyneth to be able to do this time?’. And how do we not have it so that she’s not just going (screamy voice), ‘Tony!’ And he’s not just going, ‘Where’s Pepper?’”
Though much speculated and fabricated by LEGO tie-in sets, Downey Jr. confirmed that during the Malibu attack sequence, Pepper [SPOILER] dons the Iron Man suit. “That’s the other thing that I have been pushing for,” added Downey. “She’s in great shape. She’s really game. That was the other thing, too: You have all these genre movies and you have these capable women. And they’re kind of like, ‘Oh my God. Some action is happening. I better step away or get caught in something over here.’ And I was kind of like, ‘Really? Is that where we’re at in the 21st century?’”Oh man! Pepper puts on the Iron Man? That’s awesome.
Way more interested in Iron Pepper.

Raekwon on Natalie Merchant’s “Carnival”
Raekwon: Who the fuck is this?
Bobbito: Natalie Merchant.
R: Who is she, an old man?
B: You don’t like this?
R: Hell no, this is for them suit-and-tie niggas. That’s what they rock on Wall Street.
B: You don’t like the beat, the bass line, nothing?
R: It ain’t me. I respect her style, that’s her chamber.
B: What if one of your butter pecans asked you to play that for her?
R: I’d tell her to get the fuck out of here. It’s almost like she’s in the Sade chamber, but she ain’t killing it like her.(via)
Photographer Dina Goldstein’s series “Fallen Princesses“ has actually been around since 2009 but I had never posted the photographs as a complete set before. The project looks at Disney fairy tale princesses and their harshly realistic modern day lifestyles. Seems not everybody lives happily ever after. This project has won several awards, been published internationally in magazines, analyzed by experts in the field of Fairytale literature and studied in High schools and Universities.
Holy crap this is good/horrific
Marina Abramovic meets Ulay
“Marina Abramovic and Ulay started an intense love story in the 70s, performing art out of the van they lived in. When they felt the relationship had run its course, they decided to walk the Great Wall of China, each from one end, meeting for one last big hug in the middle and never seeing each other again. at her 2010 MoMa retrospective Marina performed ‘The Artist Is Present’ as part of the show, a minute of silence with each stranger who sat in front of her. Ulay arrived without her knowing it and this is what happened.”
“En los años 70, Marina Abramovic mantuvo una intensa historia de amor con Ulay. Pasaron 5 años viviendo en una furgoneta realizando toda clase de performances. En 1988, cuando su relación ya no daba para más, decidieron recorrer la Gran Muralla China, empezando cada uno de un lado, para encontrarse en el medio, abrazarse y no volver a verse nunca más. En 2010 el MoMa de Nueva York dedicó una retrospectiva a su obra. Dentro de la misma, Marina compartía un minuto en silencio con cada extraño que se sentaba frente a ella. Ulay llegó sin que ella lo supiera, y esto fue lo que pasó”And I am destroyed.

Kinda weak trailer but SO excited for S3.

Ring Clock is a mechanical ring, which displays the current time. It has three rings for displaying the hour, minutes and seconds.The current time is highlighted, and there is an indicator so the wearer can know which way to put it on.
Not very practical - chasing the seconds and all - but I’d wear it.
I have a degree from UCLA. I’m an amateur historian who has written books about World War II, the Harlem Renaissance, and African-American inventors. I read a lot of fiction as well as non-fiction. I watch TV and movies. I have acted in both. I have been a political activist and an advocate for children’s education. How should an aging, black jock like myself know anything about pop culture? Man, I am a living part of pop culture and have been for nearly 50 years. Beyond that, I think pop culture expresses our needs, fears, hopes and whole zeitgeist better than some of the more esoteric and obscure forms of art.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar responds to the response to his response to ‘Girls’ | Huff Post Ent (via popculturebrain)
“Some questioned why a man my age would watch a show about girls in their twenties, as if they’d just discovered me hanging around a school playground with a shopping bag full of candy in one hand a fluffy puppy in the other. Of course, these critics are right. When I read Moby Dick I first had to convince the bookseller that I was a former whaler named Queequeg. When I read the poetry of Sylvia Plath, I had to pretend I was a depressed white woman with daddy issues. Don’t worry, I used a fake ID.”

I can’t hear “Party & Bullshit” in any form without wishing I was listening to Ratatat’s remix anymore. I firmly believe that no arrangement of “Party & Bullshit” will ever top it.

gabemcg: This is the theme song for TWiF (This Week in Fun) That I recorded on a whim. Sarah and Marty, if you feel like Pimping my twitter and/or following me, I’m @GabeMcG and would appreciate it! Please note: 1. I am not a musician 2. I am an awful singer 3. The musical acompanyment is courtesy Microsoft Songsmith, and is accordingly cheesy. 4. Hopefully this will be bad enough to inspire someone to do something better! My hope is that some or all of the lyrics might make it into an actual theme song for the show recorded by an actual musician. Lyrics: You’re week’s finally over/But the fun has just begun/ If you’re still getting ready/You had better run/ It’s This Week in Fun… Sarah’s always on the ball/Marty’s bouncin’ off the wall/ Only slightly Scatological/TWiF is un-Tweet-Beat-able/ You’re week’s finally over/But the fun has just begun/ If you’re still getting ready/You had better run/ It’s This Week in Fun… This week was fun… This Week in Fun… That is all, enjoy. GabeMcG - Out This is adorable. Bonus points for incorporating the word “scatological”. Bravo, sir.1200 plays
