trainwrecks: soupsoup: nudawn: tylercoates: <cut> i dont know.  its a very fine line, and its all about intent, in my opinion.  i think recognizing a woman is beautiful is not sexist.  i think recognizing that you are moved in a very visceral way is not sexist.  sex is natural, and amazing, and i dont think there’s anything wrong with admiring the human form and verbalizing those...

–  E.M. Forster, A Room With A View. At some point I am going to have to write a long piece on Forster: his feminism, his writing on sexuality, the way he gets his female characters so exactly right without making them into feminist superheroes or fragile martyrs. Maybe this says more about my lowered...

My afternoon.
People who quote Green Day songs in the songs they write had better be quoting pre-1997 Green Day. People who paint houses had better use masking tape or else risk getting paint on the wrong surfaces. People who order books from the library had better pay off their late fees before they expect to pick them up. People who drink lots of water tend to pee frequently. People who are writing a...

katiepalooza: Holy crap. I want to internet slap some folk. I understand it’s a learning experience, but shouldn’t you at least try Facebook before you go to the seminar? I hope the advanced track at the online marketing summit tomorrow is a lot more informative. Look, I don’t know what the act of living really entails for this moi, but I know that it will never, ever, ever, never,...

I’ll be the first to admit that I have no perspective when it comes to Radiohead, since I loved them, then I hated them, then I loved them, then I hated them, and now it’s like we’ve been married for fifty years. FWIW, I have three pages of “content” related to “Radiohead.”

I like radiohead. What are you saying?
(via jaimeleighfairbrother) But do you like like them or just like them? It could be more apt to say, well nevermind. I’m going to go read Tiger Beatdown or something to atone for my sexual essentialismness.

The new ProCo RAT pedals sound horrible horrible horrible like garbage. I’m not a vintage gear guy, but they sound like shit. I bought one off eBay when I was in college, and it was from the late-80s. It sounded awesome. I could be wrong, but these new ones sound like little digital elves jumping around making a ruckus. Flatwound guitar strings are the best.

– Did you know that Cardinals manager Tony La Russa is suing Twitter? Well, he is. The offending “parody” site impersonating La Russa listed his location as “tossing Pujols’ salad” and La Russa’s home page as “madd.org.” (via leitch) I just couldn’t think of a nicer man.
