Loo$e Change, Tight Flick

I enjoyed this so thoroughly yesterday that I need to post it here. Thanks to Frank Roberts for the tip. Becca called this 15 minute film “pitch perfect,” and I think she’s right. Hope you dig this as much as we. Someone needs to give Mykwain Gainey the resources to produce a series or something, […]

YAapNTb B Ha6aT

Google says ^that^ = “Ring the alarm” in Cyrillic. It didn’t do so well with my other query: “Soundbwoy a go dead.” Anywaaaaaayyyyy, here’s some vintage Russian soundclash action —

BabyTune

Why didn’t I think of this? A little realtime autotune would go a long way toward making Nico’s recent adventures in parent-manipulation (i.e., whining, screaming, crying) a LOT easier to listen to — h/t @timeblind

Balls of Steele

how u like me now off the hook in the facebook with the twittering in urban/suburban hip-hop settings? GQ: do you have a favorite [rap act]? Steele: P. Diddy I enjoy quite a bit. GQ: Do you want to rethink that? Steele: [laughs] I guess I’m sorta old-school that way. Remember, I came of age […]

Draft Charlie

In the wake of the Obama administration’s nomination of Elena Kagan, Dean of Harvard Law School, for solicitor general, a movement is afoot to draft my dear dad-in-law, Charlie Nesson, for the deanship. A blogger describing himself as “HLS’s least wealthy and influential alumnus” makes the case: He’s good at building organizations (and getting money […]

Sunday Videyoga Double Feature (Holidaze Special)

You may have seen these here before, but I’m reposting b/c — oddly enough — they’re among my favorite YouTubes of the year (and in lieu of year-end lists, which I just don’t do, a little revisiting seems ok). The first one is even appropriately seasonal. Whattayu think the greatest gift of the holidays izzzzzzz? […]

Delayed Linkdump #2429

Changed my wordpress password over the weekend, which threw off my semi-automatic delicious blogging (aka, linkthink). So here’s a semi-manual collection of yesterday’s links — LRB · Slavoj Žižek: Use Your Illusions looks like zizek caught the hope (kinda); here is a sneeze: “Nothing was decided with Obama’s victory, but it widens our freedom and […]

spam prescience

caught my eye this morning that just last night the homie kingdom left a comment on an old spam poem which i added to the collection back on 30 july 2007. spam poems aren’t what they once were. i guess the great spam poets of yore have, by this point, been roundly routed by akismet […]

Trustafari !

Think SNL has been spot-on in their election08 satire? Their send up of shanty-dorm trustafarians is just as hilarious, at least to someone like I&I — (thx to joe schloss for making sure i saw this)

lolthusser

I still can’t get over this jpg I saw over @ Topical Ointment — Some seriously niche humor going on there, no? Am I vastly underestimating the number of people fluent both in continental Marxist philosophy and 4changuage?
