my ideal version of a new york city mayor is a dr. robotnik type figure who sort of hovers over the city in a flying orb type vehicle. he never actually lands, he just flies around and yells and points at you menacingly. maybe he could occasionally throw some obstacles that you have to avoid

Our loathsome president has started an illegal and amoral war in support of a genocidal madman's political ambitions. This is the madness of Bush's Iraq war in fast forward, which resulted in hundreds of thousands of violent civilian deaths and incalculable suffering.

Here's a rare chance to see Matthew Barney's Secondary in a new single-screen version. Featuring me as a football line judge. I also supply lots of screams and noisies for the soundtrack. The first showing is sold out, but Metrograph just added one for Monday May 5. See you there?

Apropos of nothing here's one of my favorite documentaries. Aside from the incredible art, I love that the detail that these people changed gods because it seemed like their old god wasn't doing enough for them. Fair.

Winter Wren - eBird
Tiny, short-tailed, plain-brown wren with a huge voice. Subtly patterned, with indistinct pale eyebrow and diffuse dark barring on flanks and wings. Constantly keeps tail cocked at an angle. Found in a variety of forested habitats, but always prefers wetter areas with thick tangles, often around treefalls and moss. Darker, smaller, and shorter-tailed than House Wren. Incredibly beautiful song is a long series of musical whistles and trills; an unmistakable and common sound in northern forests. Call is a dry, low
