Our Little Patch of Plantation
Reblogged from Kana's Chronicles: The current buzz-word for this practice is Urban Homesteading, but “urban” doesn’t quite describe us. Our little place isn’t within the city limits of any town (and if it were, even Idaho’s capital city barely qualifies as “urban”)… Perhaps in our case we should call it “backyard homesteading,” or just plain … Continue reading
My Love Affair With Cigarettes, And Women
Reblogged from Psycho Girl Self Help: A funny thing happened on the way to becoming an adult. First: I didn’t become an adult. Yes, I can vote, and drink, and even drive cars (though, not rented ones– YET!). I can also live on my own and be trusted– by the government? My mother? Whom actually … Continue reading
Thank You For Smoking – Profile of a Fetish
It started with Bugsy, or at least, it is the oldest memory I have of being moved by a woman smoking a cigarette. There was nothing overtly sexual about Annette Bening smoking, but somehow, the image haunted me, for days and weeks to come. A year later came the Guns N’ Roses’ November Rain video, … Continue reading
Fifty Shades Dumber (Fifty Shades Darker: pgs. 451-544)
Reblogged from Speaker7: This is it, gentle reader. The dark shade will be lifted and we can walk into the light together. Or at least go outside and stick a toe on a blade of grass and then run back inside and bathe in the light of the TV. What am I blathering on about? … Continue reading
FTW LOL [Insert Emoticon]
A Saturday afternoon musing, brought to you by Le Clown. Hey you, bloggers, facebookers, tweeters, poets and loudmouths… When you voice out your opinion, and you make a valid point [scratch that... even if you sound like an idiot], no matter how unpopular it might be, own it; don’t LOL it. I was drunk driving … Continue reading
Life Cracking Open
Reblogged from Black Box Warnings: 1. Here is a list of thoughts from my perspective as an adult person functioning with the diagnosis of ADD, and using Concerta to help me get through grad school, and also life. 2. Experience typing that sentence: recalled hours yesterday wearing a sweater knit from broken words because it … Continue reading
Le Clown the Magnificent Roadie – Part I
I first met Valérie Jodoin Keaton back in 2004 – I was 99 years old. Le Clown was a tad nervous… Although I was meeting Valérie for the first time, I knew who she was, and I was not going to let her know that being The Dears‘ keyboardist and backing vocalist made Le Clown gush … Continue reading
it's up to you
Reblogged from Bring Me the Head of David Dixon: David Dixon makes Sundays better. Hear that, White Baby Jesus?
My Limp Dick in a Box Has Facebook-Blue Balls
It is time to remove the cock ring from the Dick in a Box concept, and allow the flow of blood to nurture other ideas… It was good while it lasted, wasn’t it, Jen, Gemini Girl and Meizac? But Le Clown gets bored easily… Just ask Sock Monkey… On with new toys. Now that I got your attention … Continue reading
My Name is The Ringmistress and This is a Coup
So, Le Clown decided that it was time to change Lord Evil Poppy’s name to something friendlier…less demonic. I’m down with that, and may have even persuaded Le Clown under threat of death with some gentle prodding. Le Clown, being the traffic driver that he is, crowdsourced LEP’s new name and turned it into a democratic shitshow process. … Continue reading
