For some reason I had to watch half a dozen versions of this video: this is the only one where I thought the song was a plausible match.

Check ya when I get back from Southampton, making best friends with this lady!

Shabazz Palaces and THEESatisfaction were each incredible. Then they came together and it sounded like this. (But looked like a poorly lit bar.)

My friend got the lead singer to sign the shirt I bought, though he thought it was for her. I guess I’m shy and, yet again, reaped the benefits of having a unisex name.

Swerve: It go out fast, but it come back slow.

Reason to Hope

Thu, 18 Apr 2013 00:02:34 -0400

Listen to this, it might contradict one of your worldviews and is therefore important: http://www.npr.org/2013/04/12/175619007/is-the-world-a-less-violent-place

I’ve read a lot of reflections about violence lately, both narrow to broad:

The Boston Marathon bombing is yet another tragedy that shows how awful the world is; the events in Boston shouldn’t allow us, for example, to diminish the 11 children killed by NATO in Afghanistan last week; that even during such terrible events the good will ultimately overcome.

One perspective that I think is also valuable I haven’t seen represented: Humanity is more peaceful now than it has ever been during its entire existence.

Especially when we are viscerally aware of violence - when it happens to us, people we know, near us, or in places we’ve been - it seems pervasive and unavoidable. And media gives us access to violence of every kind, from every place, every day. But as the program I linked illustrates, despite appearances, we really are living in an increasingly less violent world.

My point is not to trivialize the grief and anger millions of people are burdened with due to violence. The opposite, in fact—there is so much reason to be hopeful that fewer and fewer will have to experience that kind of devastation. It is easier now to kill more people in a more detached manner than ever before, and we, in a long arc of history kind of way, are learning to choose not to.

Anna and I made pie again. Reuben pie.

Rye flour and caraway seeds in the crust. Corned up tempeh on the bottom floor, sour kraut, thousand island dressing, and Swiss cheese. I’d forgo the lattice if I did it again, but it was damn pretty.

The leftover crust baked into maybe the best rye crackers I’ve ever had, though being half butter often makes anything the best anything I’ve ever had.

Mike: I feel like no one should be able to get married. They lost that privilege for being dicks.

Me: mike. how would we subjugate women without a ceremony signifying the transfer of their ownership from their fathers to us?

jeeeeesus, read a book.

Mike: listen, i am all about owning people. just don’t be a dick about it.

Me: i’m going to quote us, we’re funny

Mike: hehe, there goes my chances at being president

Here's a Tip: To Prevent Unnecessary Waste, Don't Floss

Sat, 09 Mar 2013 00:47:42 -0500

In the dark hall on the way back from brushing my teeth I see feet blocking the light from under my door and I stop short.

“Oh, there you are, what are you up to?”

“Nothing- what time is it.”

“Uh, 12:30.”

“…What are you up to?”

“There’s two parties to go to, man!”

I try not to say no to fun things. Maybe it was the tooth brushing that was the final straw, but I said no.

And now I discover I haven’t finished my bedtime beer. Another thing dental hygiene ruined: this must be what batteries taste like.

artofscience01:

Hubert Duprat has taken natural art to a whole new level. The basis of his project are caddisfly larvae, who create protective tubes from objects in their freshwater environment such as pebbles, shells, sand grains, and wood. This armor increases traction, serves as camouflage, and makes them harder to swallow by predators.

Duprat placed the larvae in a tank with gold and precious stones, and watched as they constructed beautiful cases. The result? Some bedazzling insects.

Message from a guy who found what is absolutely a fossil foot in a moccasin- very important. Found it 40 years ago, call back ASAP. I’ll definitely be interested in it.

Looking forward to that conversation…

The children going hungry in America

10 year old girl in Iowa:

“I really want to be in school. If you don’t get a good education then you don’t get much money, you don’t get a good job, you end up sleeping at your mum’s. You end up being behind a lot of rent and you get kicked out. You end up being homeless and then with no food.”
