john hughes is a beautiful person, pass it on
Thank you, John Hughes. And to the rest of you teenaged (I assume) imbeciles, enjoy your perfunctory, pathetic, tuneless lives cowering in fear of other people’s opinions of your bodies and your sexuality.
Under the Covers: #624 QUADROPHENIA (dir. Franc Roddam) 1979
“I don’t give a monkey’s arsehole about Mods and Rockers. Underneath, we’re all the same, ‘n’t we?”
Criterion sure loves their rock odyssees (there’s this, Head, Spinal Tap, that one where Takashi Miike tortures David Bowie for 2 hours…), and they have done some serious justice to Franc Roddam’s Quadrophenia. it’s a grimy transfer for a grimy movie, but the package sure is pretty, and stuffed with a thick booklet full of great essays and iconic images. us and them, over and over again.
The Criterion Collection will release Quadrophenia on DVD & Blu-ray 8/28/12.
Probably watched this about 40 times in high school… when you had to [*GASP*] go and rent the videotape in a store. (Sometimes, depending on which friend’s house you were at, you might even have had to rent the VCR, too!)

Gifted figurative artist Dan Witz has something to say to us about human beings. His last series depict the hypnosis state of a person writing a short message on their cellphones.

I’m not sure if this has already been brought to everyone’s attention or not, but here is the deal:

Above is a video of a 68-year-old bus monitor named Karen Klein being verbally harassed by a group of middle schoolers on their way home from Athena Middle School in Greece, New York. Throughout the ten minute video, you can hear the kids verbally berate the woman, calling her a bitch, fatass, poor, ugly, and various other words of the like. At one point in the video, you can hear one of the kids yell, “You’re so fuckin poor you fat ass,” in which Karen responds, “I try to live by some of these words, I try and it’s really hard,” referring to the words on her purse. Now, I don’t know about you, but that broke my fucking heart. There’s even a point in the video where one of the kids touches Karen’s arm in an attempt to make fun of her. I’m not sure why these kids would want to bully a senior citizen to tears, but I feel we should do something, or at least try.
She doesn’t earn nearly enough ($15,506) to deal with some of the trash she is surrounded by. Lets give her something she will never forget, a vacation of a lifetime!

What a fucking disgrace. I couldn’t even make it past the 25 second mark of that appalling video. Signal boost, because Karen Klein deserves a little internet - and real world - justice.
Springtime really makes one thankful for all the little flowers in this magical garden we call life.

Remember this? I had a lot of fun writing a “serious” art critique of this kid’s chalk drawing for Hello Giggles, and I hope you enjoy it! Please comment, like and share if you do. (Attention Alexis! Relevant to your interests!)
Saw some pretty bomb-ass chalk art on the sidewalk near my cousin’s place last week.
Guys, do you want to meet my son? Isn’t he so cute?

FAVE CHILD OF EARTH RIGHT NOW. There might be a cuter one on the moon or a distant planet, but I doubt it (but if so, I hope he has enough oxygen).
