That Mai Tai made me feel like what the old pulp novels call “a rummy”. Especially the next morning.

I’m at MoMA in NYC today and I’m walking through the Collection (rotates - all new since I was last there in Feb). It’s a mix of important work along with complete and utter bullshit like this:

(Sergej Jensen, Untitled. 2008, Synthetic polymer paint on hemp, 150.2 x 90.2 cm, The Museum of Modern Art, New York. Gift of Franny Heller Zorn and Richard L. Zorn.)
Just the kind of crap that makes me mad because it’s asinine art for art’s sake. “Anyvon could haff painted a black canvas, but I gafve it angless and as a result it iss not perrrfect.” Or whatever the mysterious intent was. Don’t make ME suffer for YOUR art jerkwad! Anyway.
I walk into the next room and I hear the “hahahahahahahahahahaha”. All at once, I’m singing the song, spinning around the room to find the source and am 16 years old again. This video’s playing in a box on the floor and I’m glued to it for the entirety, thinking of people from a bygone day I haven’t thought of in years, seeing myself listening to this LP with mondo giant headphones on in my folks’ living room and alternately happy with the memories but kind of embarrassed by what a snooty kid I was. What 16 year old kid from the suburbs of Minneapolis listens to a NYC performance artist? Why couldn’t I just listen to GnR like everyone else? Because of that reason precisely. I’ve never been happy with going along to get along. It’s finding those niche little weird crowds of deviants and freaks that makes life interesting. Does it make me a deviant and freak? Yeah, but I’m good with that.

Boom.
Makes me think of Hopper in Blue Velvet. “You receive a love letter from me you’re fucked forever!”
Quote reblogged from oh hey great ! with 9 notes
As important as the product was the work flow that they created.
In an era where most magazines go through a lavish multi-month production cycle, the 48 HR team made a spectacular 60-page magazine and online site in a weekend in May 2010 with little more than Twitter, coffee, grit and more than 1,500 submissions collected in just over a day. Although the print publication is no longer available for purchase, the execution demonstrated the potential of citizen-generated news at high speed.
J-Lab | 2010 Knight-Batten Award Winners | Awards
Before we were Longshot, we were 48 HR Magazine. It seemed like a gamble (a long shot, if you will) that we’d even be able to put one issue out. We weren’t sure we’d get any contributions, or if we did, that we’d be able to put something out in time. But thanks to an amazing number of contributions, and a massive depth of talent from an all-volunteer staff, we made it. You made it.
Yesterday, we received a special distinction award from Knight-Batten for innovation in journalism. Looking at the other winners, we feel like we’re in some pretty heady company. We’re honored. Deeply honored. And we hope all of you who participated are too.
But now we’re something new. Something different. We’re going to be more ambitious, and branch out into more areas. We’ve set up an LLC. (We even have an amazing attorney who helped us out of a jam.) Our goal for the next issue—issue one of Longshot Magazine—is to blow issue zero out of the water.
We’re going to continue to roll out more and more detail in the coming days and weeks. But whatever happens, we hope you’ll join us.

Congratulations to the team formerly known as 48 HR Magazine (that means congrats to me, too!), and welcome back to the team now known as Longshot Magazine. I can’t wait to see what happens next.

Black Dynamite (2009)
Directed by Scott Sanders
There is nothing that I didn’t love about this movie.
Except the last boring 15 minutes! But in that light, it was EXACTLY like a blaxploiation film. Really spot on throughout.

I’m starting a club. It’s called the “Simple Things Done Well Society,” or STDWS, if you will. We believe that Vanilla is the best flavor of ice cream (so long as it is really good), Ringo Starr is wonderful drummer, and Hemmingway’s sentences are perfect, thank you very much.
Above, a toothbrush by MUJI, because your toothbrush doesn’t need to look like some sort of a neon-laced, ribbed dog chew toy with grips.

I had a friend who used to collect deviant Dr. Peppers. I don’t see any Dr. Enuf though.
