This is profoundly retarded. And you know how I feel about calling things retarded. (hint: generally don’t do it.)
Rapper Coolio is set to perform the “flight of the angel” at this year’s Carnival of Venice - breaking a tradition which has usually involved a beautiful woman swooping down onto Venice’s St Mark’s Square from the basilica’s bell tower. “It (the choice of Coolio) is a blow of diversity, because it will involve a black man with a turbulent past,” the Carnival’s artistic director Marco Balich was quoted as saying by the ANSA news agency on Wednesday.
There is absolutely nowhere to go with this.
My mind has been blown.
I’m going to go die now.

So every day AU sends out AU TODAY newsletters to update the campus on shit. Today’s included this:
“Say Never Again to Genocide” Rally Info Meeting. Darfur Action (a chapter of STAND: The Student Anti-Genocide Coalition) is planning a “Never Again” rally to take place this Holocaust Remembrance weekend at the Capitol, and we need your help. Come today, January 24, at 8:00 p.m. to the Clark Conference Room (the building behind the library) to get involved. Do you have activist, art, Web site, business, set up, outreach, or any other skills? We need you. Help us spread the message that we need to make genocide a thing of memory by standing up and stopping atrocities in Sudan. [insert email here] for more information.
Respectable cause. But look again.

Activist skills. Which just translates to a sense of superiority, right?
Set up skills. Doesn’t that just mean manual labor? (in that case, no I don’t have set up skills. I’m lazy).
Outreach skills. Meaning you know how to whore your cause? I don’t get it.
I don’t now. I guess he or she tacked on “skills” to a bunch of things that aren’t really skills and thought that would be OK. But it’s not. Abusing the english language like that isn’t going to help prevent genocide when it makes me want to kill the entire activist race. Fuck.

I should be writing a paper on German Expressionism and how it is reflected in Cam’ron’s most recent mixtape, Public Enemy #1, but whatever this is more important.
THE STORY: One target. Two creeps. Only one will survive. Starring Phil with Mad Game as the Referee.
THE RULES:
- You do not talk about the mack-off.
- You do not talk about the mack-off.
- Getting the target drunk and going to work is not only allowed, it is encouraged.
- Sabotaging the other’s game is allowed (includes but is not limited to: destroying clothes, poisoning, baby eating)
Actually. That’s pretty much it.
I’m totally gonna take this shit I KNOW IT.
updates to follow…

In my quest to never have to eat again, I’ve discovered “meal replacement” drinks. I’m surprised it’s taken me this long.
They’re proteiny and chocolately and grainy (is it supposed to be?) and whatever- but I just looked over at tonight’s dinner (YEAH HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT, SOLID FOODS?) and it actually made a noise. I can’t really describe it, but it’s making me uncomfortable.
Yeah. Weeks of checking your livebookmarks and this is what you get. Is it really worth it?

Playlist time. Once again, fantastic show. Last week’s was still better, but I’m sayin- we’re improving so much it’s crazytalk. We were on our a-game for the full 2 hours; much thanks to caffeine for coming through to help out.
We mixed it up, screwed it up, babbled for hours, discovered the wonders of coffee, staged epic battles, DEALT NO ADVICE. But whatever. We’re not gonna hand our philosophical gems we call “life lessons” out to bitches who don’t want it.
It was good times. Listen again in 2 weeks!

The winner is:
You. Assuming you are the dude with an afro and a purse carrying around Chomsky and Foucault On Human Nature, but not actually reading it. Seen at the Against Me! show at the 9.30 Club, Washington, DC.
Runner up: girl with green, orange, black, white and red hair. One half of which was pig-tailed, the other in a buzzcut. Maybe you should’ve gone with the purple Hitler bangs. There’s always next week!
Thanks to all contestants and congratulations!
