I'm taking a break
Since getting back to school after the Christmas break my life has been a total flurry of activity. I realised if I were to keep up with school work and The Journal while still finding time to make art and take pictures, something had to give. You see, I’m the classic lazy internet person. I use it to kill time, but when “killing time” became “I’ll do that later, let me just finish reading...

Ok that's it.
If you post a photo a photo of some jerk-off indie artist with a caption like “I can’t wait to see them live”, “I love these guys” or “their new album is fucking awesome!!!1!11 SPLOOGE!” without mentioning their name so us mortals who don’t spend our lives on Brooklyn Vegan can know who they are, then you are officially a DOUCHEBAG. Like I actually...

Not as cohesive as I expected from the title, but come on, this is Kanye’s “Kid A”. You can’t be this honest and polished simultaneously. 808s & Heartbreak by Kanye West tylerball liked it 1 yea, 0 nay, 0 comments

Young Conservatives Make Me Sad →
claytoncubitt: They have names like “S.E. Cupp” or “Hampton Williams” or “Tucker Carlson” or “Grover Norquist”, which sound like they were generated by some weird web WASP name generator. Bow-tie porn names. They write horribly, out of William F Buckley’s thesaurus. They “regale”, and plan “debauchery” and drink “frothy Belgian stouts”.

“BIG PUSSY” directed and written by Todd Strauss-Schulson This is a masterpiece. A slick and funny short made on a dime with ” a sound guy, producer, pa, dp” and the director on an HVX with a mini35 adapter. Shows that anybody can make a great little (or big) film with some planning, a good idea and some great editing.
