"your girlfriend is really beautiful, did you notice she's a bird?"
- by admin
Finally got around to watching the 35min 'movie' Runaway by Kanye West.
It makes basically no sense.
But did you expect it to?
Between bird chicks
fireworks
a marching band
the KKK
lambs & fawns
a giant Michael Jackson head
ballet dancers
(which have a distinctive Black Swan vibe, if I may say so)
and
phoenixes
it's quite the... eclectic mix.
The jump between the tracks off of My Dark Twisted Fantasy is generally pretty jarring and most don't seem to really fit, but that's sort of like trying to make a musical out of old ABBA songs. It doesn't have the same flow.
However, the video portion
the Runaway video itself
is beautiful
absolutely gorgeous
I can't stress it enough
and even though you could do without the last 10min (and maybe the first 15) I can't help but like the whole thing
content be damned
it's bloody beautiful to look at
and I think that was the point
really
but if you don't have 35 mins to kill
definitely check out the vid for Runaway
then go listen to the album again
cause you remembered how good it is.
That's what I'm gonna do.

My profs at the University of Winnipeg will probably be striking at of 12:01am tomorrow morningand
while most other students I know are freaking out,
me,
I'm hoping for a day off.
Between being bombarded with info from both my profs and the administration
(where I work)
stressing about assignments
programs
plans for next year
and so many other things that seem to be suspended in middair
I just need a break.
Even if it's only for a day or two.
Eat Jello for Lucidending

This was posted on Reddit a couple of days ago:On Tuesday I'll finally end my battle with cancer thanks to Oregon's Death with dignity act. As part of my preparations I've ended my pain medication and am trying to regain what little dignity and clarity I can.
Who I was doesn't matter. I'm in pain, I'm tired and I'm finally being granted a small shred of respect. Feel free to AMA if you're so inclined
Since then there's been an outpouring of sentiment over the post; it's all been kind and thoughtful, sensitive.
People have taken pictures of where they live and sent them to him so he can 'see the world' before he dies.
Since his last meal will be Jello-O, Redditors have created an Eat Jello for Lucidending event for tomorrow, March 7th.
So tomorrow I'll be having Jell-O at some point to honour someone I'll never meet who is choosing to bravely face death and to use the time they have left to touch the lives of others.
Go read the thread if you have time, it's really touching stuff.

Hey you guys ever hear of Eskimo?
Ever hear of Cyriak?
Maybe you've seen that crazy cow video, maybe you haven't.
Either way, watch what happens when these two get together.
Don't go cross-eyed.

One day I hope to be as hilar and charming as Betty White.
It probably won't happen, the only two women who can pull it off are her and my Grandma.
There's something special about those two.
If I said that they had Tiger Blood, would that be in bad taste?
Okay, I won't.

Who has two thumbs and is going to see Elton John on May 7th?
This chick.
Oh, and Ty, too.
Our tix were 86$ a pop. I think floor were like 200$?
Honestly I don't care where I bloody sit.
I'm going to be tipsy as hell and am going to dance in my seat to the Crocodile Rock.
My mom is going to be so jeals.
