Bjork


So sometimes I listen to music. Today I found something that should interest everybody, like myself, who was alive in the 90s...a Bjork tribute album! This was put together by Stereogum and includes covers by the Dirty Projectors, El Guincho and No Age, to name a few. It also includes comments by all the bands about Bjork's work and, regrettably, most of them are worthless. Some of them, though, are kind of insightful. Visit the site and download the tracks and remember how much of a crush you inexplicably had on Bjork. 

UT is a Serious Research Institution.

Everyone has to have a line beyond which things cannot be tolerated. For me, this is Ayn Rand. I hate Ayn Rand's writing, I hate everyone who likes Ayn Rand's writing (usually this is coextensive with being a shmarmy Ron-Paul, supporting, palm sweating douche bag) and I especially hate anyone that considers her "philosophy" to be other than a bunch of half-baked horseshit. That said, the UT Philosophy department decided that it would be a good idea to have an ENDOWED CHAIR TO STUDY THIS SHIT. This is a department for whom Nietzsche is beyond the pale, Hegel is batshit crazy and Deleuze probably had syphilis. John Rawls, however, is the mack. Fuck this. 

Sorry for the rant. here is a song called "Mo Gut Than Butt." Yay DJ Assault.

Fiesta

Those that know me know that I love me my trips to Fiesta supermarket. Every time I go there there is some crazy, next level shit going on; random children's parties (in a supermarket?), picture cakes made on the spot, new, gross meats at the carneceria. This, however, takes the cake.

Dudes Cooler Than Me

There comes a time in all dudes' lives when it is necessary to sit down and admit that there are a few dudes that can outdude you any day of the week. Today I realized that one of those dudes is David Harvey. Usually I call British Marxists "Marxists Without the Mess," but this dude has a beard and is thus exempt. I love you David Harvey, call me sometime.
