Portland Travelogue Part 2: Phantasmagorical Food Awesometown & Don’t drink the mouthwash

By Giania • Oct 1st, 2009 • Category: Potent Potables

Hot: So here it is, Thursday morning. I’d like to talk to you for a moment about food, and some crappy absinthe, but first, food. There may have already been some food (and general trip) related photos, so make sure you’re keeping tabs on my flickr, which I didn’t even know that ping.fm posted to [...]



Love at First Listen: Beautiful Small Machines – Counting Back to 1

By Giania • Sep 17th, 2009 • Category: Audio

Hot: Edited to remove imeem embed, since it only played 30 seconds. This poppy, energetic, tightly executed ditty grabbed me in the first few seconds the way few songs have in a while (since the Fleet Foxes’ White Winter Hymnal, I reckon). It’s a super catchy balance of techno precision and warm pop sensibilities, wrapped [...]



Ghetto Dinner Numero Trace

By Guest Author • Nov 14th, 2008 • Category: Potent Potables

Hot: Yes, you read it right folks. Another Ghetto Dinner Party is upon us, they only come but once a year. When the last leaf of the great Maple tree falls and when it becomes too cold to play whiffle ball, the Great Ghetto Dinner comes forth like a mighty steed. When you get out [...]



Cigarette Burns – A Tear Into weirdHolly

By Sketch E Whiteface • Sep 10th, 2008 • Category: Film

Hot: If someone reliable could tell me when in the future films would become solely based on finances it’d certainly save me the hassle of looking up articles on the Internet. If someone told me it would be next week I wouldn’t be shocked in the least since in it’s current state it’s just about [...]



Holiday-shmoliday: V-Day Wallpaper

By Giania • Feb 4th, 2008 • Category: Art, History

Hot: Let it never be said that I throw complete disfavor upon arbitrary, stupid holidays based around the martyrdom of one of three possible guys in order to overwrite pagan tradition. Far from it, any excuse to get more color in my dreary winter, and of course free candy, is a good excuse. That said [...]



Hope, strength, and patience to all who lost something today

By Giania • Apr 17th, 2007 • Category: Philosophy, Politics

Hot: The trumpet of a prophecy! O Wind, If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind? ~ Percy Bysshe Shelley: Ode to the West Wind Because everyone else will be espousing their philosophical and political agendas, I feel it appropriate to bring up a philosophical and political standpoint that has been on my mind a [...]



Winter Depression

By Giania • Jan 22nd, 2007 • Category: Fnord

Hot: I’ve heard of at least a few people who are finding themselves more and more depressed lately. There are times where I’m tempted to lump myself in with that group as well, although for the most part I’m doing my damnedest to keep a relatively positive disposition despite mounting fears about my irresponsibility catching [...]



I love stupid internet toys

By Giania • May 2nd, 2006 • Category: Fnord

Hot: Your chinese element is the water! Water personalities are dreamers and believe in love and good fortune. On the other hand they can be illusionary and unrealistic! Direction: North Season: Winter Time of day: Night Moon Tendency: New Moon Planet: Mercury Form: wavy, irregular Colour: Black, Dark Blue Taste: salty Organs: Cidneys and Bladder [...]
