There is a whole set of words that I have hated since I was a kid, and I’m realizing that it is just because one aunt of mine said them a lot, in a certain WAY, like: Put on your PJs and I’ll make you a PB&J—want some OJ too? Ugh. It’s a wonder I can wear pajamas, eat peanut butter jell sandos, and drink orange juice at all.
There is another set of words my parents...
Patti Smith's next book
Yay! I’ve been hoping her AMAZING memoir was not a one-off.
In a Guardian interview last weekend, Smith hinted at several literary projects to follow her acclaimed memoir, Just Kids. Speaking at an Intelligence Squared event at the Royal Geographical Society on Wednesday night, NME reports, Smith confirmed she is currently working on a crime novel. “For the last two years … ...

Q&A with director of "Reel Injun" documentary →
“One of my favorites was Gary Farmer in Dead Man—that was really a different kind of portrayal than the stereotype. He was this irreverent, chubby Indian, not at all like the ones from the old John Wayne movies. And that was the first time I heard Cree being spoken on film.”
I hope this doc plays in Chicago!

Marlene Clark
“Ganja and Hess was the only American film screened during Critic’s Week at the 1973 Cannes Film Festival, where it was named one of the 10 Best American Films of the Decade … Almost every New York critic panned the film. “When I read the reviews, I thought, ‘They didn’t get it,’” Clark remembers. “Many critics believe that black people make very straightforward, literal...

10. What do you most dislike about your appearance? When I look in the mirror I am disappointed that I am not just a brain in a jar.

A nice young man named Fawzy asked me to complete something called The Proust Questionnaire for his site. It was a good opportunity for me to obsess over my various faults and shortcomings. I was also able to mention Ryan Reynolds a few times.

expendables
I’m ashamed of my own laziness. I watched The Expendables without taking notes of the shit I was thinking, feeling, realizing, learning, and vowing. Stallone looked a little bit like this
Joan Crawford is one of my favorite people ever, and I hate to say that about her, but there is a point to be made about his eyebrows and I’m not sure how else to make it. It is a strange situation...
ears in mouth
Dreampth: I was in an enormous house with many bathrooms. I’d get stuck in a bathroom, it would start to fill with water, and theme music would play, alerting me that the maniac was coming to kill me. I had to find the hidden small door or window in the room, use whatever tools were around to force it open, and crawl or climb out. I’d find myself on the outside of the house, re-enter...
very excited to see Richard Ayoade's film
From a Guardian interview:
“Today, at least, Ayoade is a little more enthusiastic about the film he’s here to promote, Submarine, which he wrote and directed, adapting the story of a teenage misfit and his pyromaniac first girlfriend from a 2008 novel by Joe Dunthorne. Or rather, he’s enthusiastic about talking about films generally—the influence on the finished product...

Love this photo of Beth. Her hair is the SHIT and I never realized she resembles young Dolly Parton. I found this photo on the website of this awesome Aussie feminist and fat activist who sells these necklaces in her site’s shop:
