Kyle Kinane produced a 20 minute pilot for a travel show. I can’t believe this isn’t a real series. (Mostly NSFW, use headphones, etc., via)
Tuesday, an edited transcript
- Andrew: http://www.buzzfeed.com/amyodell/punk-things-that-happened-on-the-met-gala-red-carpet
- Andrew: Joey Ramone rolls over in his grave
- me: wow, that's... awful
- me: I am left with questions
- me: 1) who thought a "gala" was appropriate for "punk"
- me: 2) who cares about bullshit events like this
- me: 3) who even enjoys going to bullshit events like this
- Andrew: right? I'm okay with the Met having a punk exhibit. Yeah, I know, it's pretty anti-punk to end up in a staid museum on the upper east side, but these things happen.
- Andrew: but a gala?
- Andrew: It didn't occur to anyone how ridiculous it is to celebrate punk rock by parading a bunch of movie stars in stupid outfits down a red carpet?
- Andrew: All of our celebrities are to stupid and self-centered that the irony occurred to none of them?
- me: I guess?
- Andrew: Fashion paid for this building in which I sit, but fashion must die, and must die now
- me: hahaha
- me: I kind of want to be invited to these things just to reject the invitation in some gleefully rude manner
- me: "No, I'm not coming to this punk gala. This is a terrible idea. I hope the irony suffocates all of you."
- me: MASS IRONY POISONING MARS MET GALA
- me: "We thought it was something in the food, or some kind of awful terrorist attack, but no, it was us. We did this to ourselves," said a distraught, coughing Anne Hathaway as she was treated by paramedics at the scene
- Andrew: "Madonna actually seems to be feeding on the toxin, growing stronger by the minute."
- me: "Nation's Scientists Rush to Develop Antidote to Madonna"
- me: "New York City in Ruins as Madonna Continues Rampaging, Irony-Fueled Comeback"

- Andrew: hahaha
- Andrew: genius

Adult Swim put out a compilation of new garage rock. GET ON IT.
They posted a full Soundcloud stream too.

great, now i wanna watch this whole thing.
The album version of “Whiskey Icarus” is on Spotify, just FYI.
“There’s some credit due to anybody who made it out of the suburbs because that’s a creeping oppression that you don’t realize.”
The standard psychological methods for dealing with everyday worry are pretty simple. But just because they’re simple and relatively well-known doesn’t mean we don’t need reminding to use them from time-to-time.
So here is a five-step plan called “The Peaceful Mind” that was actually developed by psychologists specifically for people with dementia (Paukert et al., 2013). Because of this it has a strong focus on the behavioural aspects of relaxation and less on the cognitive. That suits our purposes here as the cognitive stuff (what you are worrying about) can be quite individual, whereas the behavioural things, everyone can do.
