The fucking AA shit. The sobriety shit. It was always for other people. I just wanted to get a job back and get enough money to tell everybody to go fuck themselves and then roll like Errol Flynn and Frank Sinatra—the good parts of those guys.

the cherokees vs. andrew jackson →
i just found a really good article on a RI section that i’m working on for john ross:
At the same time, what historians would call the Cherokee Renaissance was bringing the tribe more fully into the 19th century. Sequoyah, a mixed-blood Cherokee, distilled the Cherokee oral language into a set of 86 symbols; soon, the tribe enjoyed a higher rate of literacy than the settlers who called...
after a brief chat with my brother, i went on a full-on nirvana the band the show renaissance binge. holy fuck. if you haven’t watched all the episodes and shorts and deleted scenes yet, we aren’t the friends you think we are.

pleasant. via av club:
Max Tannone—remix artist behind the Jay-Z/Radiohead mash-up Jaydiohead, the more recent Mos Def/Talib Kweli-meets-reggae mixes Mos Dub and Dub Kweli, and the Beastie Boys-meets-Beastie Boys Doublecheck Your Head—saw the Sam Rockwell movie Moon and, like a lot of right-thinking people, really dug it. So he’s put together Selene, a five-track concept EP that samples Clint...
it really irritates me when movies or tv shows employ the gag where one person walks out of the scene through a door then bursts back in a second later. the camera sort of hangs there a beat to long, and the entire audience anticipates the punchline before it actually happens. its like intentionally setting up a ‘that’s what she said’ joke. [but other than that sixteen candles...

also, you should listen to stephen fry’s hour-long radio special, in the beginning was the nerd. it’s a post-op of the y2k scare and is pretty engaging. i found it on a torrent but i imagine you can find it elsewhere.

on her essay, can the subaltern speak:
She could not speak because she did speak but was not heard. That was the meaning of ‘cannot speak’. I got a lot of nonsense as a result of my saying this to the extent that finally Dipesh Chakraborty told me that our friend Megan Morris had said a very wonderful thing to him saying , ‘those people who question Gayatri and say that you take away the ...

my dear friend sara rafsky gives a guided tour of b.a.’s finest religious theme park over at viceland:
Highlights include a giant narrated nativity scene, a reenactment of the Last Supper accompanied by classical music, a statue of Jesus pardoning “the woman taken in adultery,” and a re-creation of the streets of Jerusalem that looks like it was dragged off a B-movie back lot. But ...

nowhere man / george walden for the new statesman →
fantastic:
A reason that Anglo-American acolytes of Jean Baudrillard inspired mockery is that they never quite saw the playful side of the brilliantly mischievous French theorist. His forte was the simulacrum, or imperfect imitation of reality, and its gradual dissolution into a nihilistic state, towards which he was convinced society as a whole was heading. If that is the case - and we are...
