Shhhh…no one tell Fox News that the “wedding kiss” picture they’re using to accompany a piece about traditional gender roles is actually of a same sex couple. (MADE MY DAY)

When Fox News becomes unable to tell the difference, that’s when you know the difference doesn’t actually matter that much.

“Go to the fucking yard sale, buy a fucking guitar, start a band with your fucking friends, get in the garage and fucking SUCK, and work on it until you fucking make great music and become the biggest band in the world. And when you become the biggest band in the world, you’ll be like, “Goddamn, wasn’t the garage fun?”

—Dave Grohl (cf. “Little Room”)

  • How old do donkeys live to be?

Google tells me the answer, provided that the donkey is taken care of and getting regular doctor’s appointments, is around 40 years old.

  • That’s so long.
  • If I wanted a donkey and wanted to be able to care for it its whole life, I’d have to get it right now.
  • Or…

“Ain’t Dead Yet”
 Drew Conrad

Fitzroy Gallery
, 195 Chrystie St., NYC

Drew Conrad’s sculptural ruins of familiar domestic interior and exterior spaces propose a physical and mental space. Each architectural element is constructed and deconstructed with an idea of a certain moment yet without a final and fully realized plan; each decision informs the next. New and found materials such as laths, shingles, damask wallpaper, lights, and household oddities are distressed by hand with rust, debris, stain and sediment.

Whatever you did today, wherever you traveled, no matter how it went, you still had a better day than the person behind me wearing a Subway superhero sandwich costume on a snowy Chicago day, silently offering coupons to an indifferent public.

We’ve already got fire-fighters & EMTs in the family, but this is still such a punch to my already romantic heart.

How are we not gainfully employed?

  • Luke: I really like David Attenborough's new series on birds.
  • Me: Me too, especially the episode with the birds that ride capybaras.
  • Luke: Yeah, those were great. I didn't realize that capybaras were aquatic, like beavers. Do you think in South American countries they use 'capybara' as the slang term for vagina?
  • Me: Instead of 'beaver?' God I hope so.
  • Luke: Can I call your vagina 'your capybara' from now on?
  • Me: Most definitely.
