Bound 2 - Kanye West

This album is definitely growing on me.

“Meanwhile the DEA
Teamed up with the CCA
They tryna lock niggas up
They tryna make new slaves
See that’s that privately owned prisons
Get your piece today
They prolly all in the Hamptons
Braggin’ ’bout what they made
Fuck you and your Hampton house
I’ll fuck your Hampton spouse
Came on her Hampton blouse
And in her Hampton mouth”

- Kanye West - New Slaves

thrash-bandicoot:

happy father’s day

YO me and Anthony were just talking today about the best types of root beer and whether it was better in cans or bottles but we completely forgot about Dad’s Root Beer. Always used to get cases of this stuff from Price Club/Costco growing up.

I liked Yeezus.

But nothing compares to the first listen of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Masterpiece.

How anyone can hate Kanye West, I will never know.

NYT: One of the things I thought when I heard the new record was, “This is the anti-'College Dropout.’ ” It feels like you’re shedding skin. Back then, you were like: “I want more sounds. I want more complicated raps. I want all the things.” At what point did that change?

Kanye West: Architecture — you know, this one Corbusier lamp was like, my greatest inspiration.

afootballreport:

This time next year, where will we be?

12 June ~~2013~~ 2014. We’re one year away from the best month, the one month that comes around every four years. The World Cup kicks off in 365 days. *Takes a deep breath, falls out of chair from excitement*

The Maracanã is built. Brazil’s other stadiums are racing to get ready. Teams like Argentina, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Uruguay, and even the United States are looking sharp, and suddenly the countdown has become a little bit more intimate. Brazil is attempting to re-establish itself as a global power, and qualifying only has a handful of matches before we find out who our final 32 sides will be. Summer is here, and we’re already dreaming of the next one.

Brilliant kicker. Can’t wait.

Guess what starts a year from now? Awww yeah. Motha...

Awww yeah. Motha fuckin’ World Cup.

"The old adage is true—writing is rewriting. But it takes a kind of courage to confront your own..."

“The old adage is true—writing is rewriting. But it takes a kind of courage to confront your own awfulness (and you will be awful) and realize that, if you sleep on it, you can come back and bang at the thing some more, and it will be less awful. And then you sleep again, and bang even more, and you have something middling. Then you sleep some more, and bang, and you get something that is actually coherent. Hopefully when you are done you have a piece that reasonably approximates the music in your head. And some day, having done that for years, perhaps you will get something that is even better than the music in your head. Becoming a better writer means becoming a re-writer. But that first phase is so awful that most people don’t want any part.”

Coffee in the mornings, Melatonin in the evenings.

Gotta stay up, Gotta get to sleep.

Sometimes I seriously wonder if the NYT Editorial Board actually reads David Brooks' columns before they run them.

Tue, 11 Jun 2013 02:04:16 -0400

Or if they ever look at him and are just like, “Dave…really? Did you even look at this more than once?”

For the first time in, I don't know, 6 years?

Big D’s Shining On is no longer my ringtone. Had to happen eventually, I guess.

“Assume for a moment that some of these measures really have helped make our persons and property safer—are they worth it? Where and when was the public debate on whether they’re worth it? Was there no such debate because we’re not capable of having or demanding one? Why not? Have we actually become so selfish and scared that we don’t even want to consider whether some things trump safety? What kind of future does that augur?”

I would like a single plum, floating in perfume, served in a man’s hat.

Can someone in California fucking Primary (verb) Dianne Feinstein?

I get sick of her shit every time there’s anything to do with intelligence or homeland security in the news. YOU’RE FUCKING CALIFORNIA - YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS, DEMOCRATS.

supersonicelectronic:

Jen Mann.

With her paintings Jen Mann seeks to explore the outer horizons of beauty and to view those places with “rose tinted glasses.” Her photorealistic, highly saturated paintings often feature figures in movement or obscured in some form or fashion, features that tie together Jen’s inspirations from existentialism, beauty and nonsense. Check out more of her gorgeous work below:

Sorry, I read “rose-tinted glasses” and this is all that came to mind.

but at least they’re pretty clearly delineated by a giant dollar sign with rays around it. Extremely appropriate.
