Watchyeah, so i’m basically just watching nostalgia chick this evening. she’s awesome. every episode i’ve watched has been fantastic, but so far this is my favorite because she’s just going from memory and i haven’t seen the last unicorn.
i should really try winging it on a review sometime. i could probably come up with a rad outline for a movie based on marvel’s...

The Smurfette Principle by Nostalgia Chick via sociological images. This is great - I’m often thinking about how men are people and women are women and how that translates in different ways in our society (think of the WALK sign at intersections or “chick flicks” as opposed to action or horror movies).
Where it gets confusing though is that a lot of the female...

@neilhimself: I miss @amandapalmer. This YouTube video of her singing a new song last night is funny & sweet & does not help a bit: http://bit.ly/9LkhC2
@neilhimself: @insignifikunt I don't mind vegemite, and I really like marmite. She says that's worse.
@amandapalmer: @neilhimself I miss you too. and I forgive you for having 12 jars of marmite in your kitchen. #MarmiteIsAlsoFoul
@neilhimself: @amandapalmer 21 jars. I just counted. #Noitsnot
@amandapalmer: @neilhimself 21 jars of marmite. this may be the stress on our relationship that leads to its collapse. #irreconcilabledifferences
@neilhimself: Remember: if you hit Marmite with a spoon for long enough, it changes colour: http://bit.ly/bh4Y5B
@neilhimself: And I have 21 jars of Marmite because when I ordered them from Amazon (they sell them in 12s) one was smashed. So they sent me another 12.
@amandapalmer: @MollyRobison both vegemite and marmite are pasty spreads that taste like the sea threw up in your mouth after a keg party
@amandapalmer: NO YEAST SPREADS RT @faithlessfate okay, no marmite either? how about Bovril? #graspingatstraws
@neilhimself: @amandapalmer Bovril's not a yeast spread, darling. They make it by boiling down cows into spreadable form. #breakingitgently
@neilhimself: I know that makes 23 jars, not 21. But 2 jars have been spread thinly on things or used to flavour soups or stews.
@neilhimself: Have been told that Bovril is now vegan. But per Wikipedia it was only vegan 2004-2006 and is now spreadable cow again. http://bit.ly/GCXW8
@neilhimself: @boundlush if they sold #Marmite in Midwestern US supermarkets I would buy it buy the jar, one at a time...
@amandapalmer: @neilhimself it is clear that you are completely avoiding the real issue, my darling.
@neilhimself: @amandapalmer Yes dear. Er, what's the real issue?

portland chefs and their tasty tattoos via mix magazine / oregon live
when bourdain came to pdx he went to a super-foodie pizza joint and all of the dozen-ish up and coming chefs he was meeting had food-related tattoos. i’m pretty sure some of those ppl are in this article.

i feel like a complete asshole complaining about this because everyone has to do this and most people don’t have the advantages i have but still, looking for work fills me with this almost existential dread. nothing looks appealing. i can’t stop conflating settling for a good but not great job with settling for a life unexamined and unenjoyed.

didn't i say she was smarter than i am?
(reading a sesame street flap book with my three year old niece, this page shows a bookstore and you can open the little fairy tales and see a scene from each inside.)
(opens flap showing the old woman giving snow white a poisoned apple.)
zoe: she's sharing the apple!
zoe: that's nice. that's really nice.
(opens flap showing the bag bad wolf huffing and puffing in front of a brick house.)
me: who's that?
zoe: the big bad wolf!! he's huffing and puffing!
me: but he's not going to blow the brick house down, is he?
zoe: no, he IS going to blow it down.
zoe: but they'll build a NEW one.
me: oh, okay. what will the new house be built out of?
zoe: um... A CASTLE.
