Every year, thousands of women move to New York hoping to find two things: love and the crystal skull.

The Silver Jews — San Francisco BC
Los Silver Jews tienen nuevo disco: Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea. Como siempre, lo mejor son las letras. El primer sencillo es una historia de amor, hipsters y crímenes. Aquí les pongo unas coplas padres:
“Romance is the douche of the bourgeoisie”
Was the very first thing she imparted to me
She said “you don’t make enough to provide for me.”
I said “what about the stuff that we quote believe?”
Little, asian, deadly, like a cobra in the shade
Sat in the midst of the smoke that he made
Gene’s talking about insignificant shit
Just like crooks in the movies when they do that bit.
He said the power of metal will never be harnessed.
I thought the wages of metal should be heavily garnished.
Then he came at me with some fist cuisine
I had to duck aside and that was bad for Gene
Listo. [Iv]

Freakanomics se pregunta '¿Quién es el pensador moderno más importante?
Yo me estoy inclinando por Gandhi, que era mucho más que un pacifista:
Creo que si la únicas opciones son cobardía o violencia, recomendaría la violencia.

Una Do Nothing Machine, Do Nothing Grinder o Bullshit Grinder. Es un juguete nada más o una tarea para aprendices de carpintería. Pero algún día todos andaremos en coches hechos de esto.
Antes, la Rueda de Ginebra ¡y próximamente MÁS! …si encuentro. [Iv] vía

Chequen esta galería de bicicletas de madera circulando de bajada por doquier, a veces con frenos, a veces sin ellos. Me recuerda a mi primo y sus amigos, quienes construían vehículos con grandes cajas de refresco unidas para aventarse por su cuadra, que está a las faldas del Cerro de la Silla. Esta foto es de Harley Palangchao. [Fe]

“Euphemisms tend to undermine themselves. The fact that you feel in need of a euphemism shows that you have a dim view of what it refers to. And soon enough, if your distate is shared by others, the euphemism will have lost its power and all the old associations will have reattached themselves. In a country as blighted by racism as America there is always the need for yet another name for blacks. And when it comes to the place we do our number twos, everybody is always looking for the next nice way of referring to it. Many Londoners have recently adopted the American expression “bathroom,”, the old French euphemisms “toilet” and “lavatory” having lost their cleansing magic.”— Jamie Whyte en su libro Crimes Against Logic.
