I love how i always learn more about Eve every time i read an article about her… And how i’m a member of the “Vagina Army.” Wait until the V-Party really exists.. oh boy oh boy.
eve & jane in holy land
identity control
It always makes me smile when i run across other folks with similar views on identity control and the loss of privacy. And i do love the powerful thought of disinformation.. Maybe i should start normalizing my own site?
village voice horoscope
I’m quite humored by this week’s Village Voice horoscope:
SAGITARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Happy Holy Daze, Sagittarius! I’ve been meditating on the perfect holiday gifts for you. What might inspire you to make best use of the astrological opportunities in the coming months? Here’s one idea: the entire costume collection of a defunct theater company. With your closet full of exotic and dramatic new choices, you could dress up in a variety of roles without becoming attached to any of them. And that, in my opinion, would be just what the soul doctor ordered for you to achieve prime psychological health during the Great Experiment that will unfold in 2003.
happy winter solstice
Happy winter solstice!!
Just think: the days start getting longer now…
girl culture
Don’t you just love the culture into which girls are forced to assimilate?
evolution of schooling
Meritocracy has taken over the higher education system, and with little time, sex has become has a social transaction (even for the girls). Or so says David Brooks in discussing love & success at America’s finest universities.
googling
Although i’ve read notes on Googling potential dates before, i really like this latest by the Ethicist at the New York Times (even though i don’t completely agree). It’s a tough conundrum, and the technology has certainly changed our expectations of privacy and awareness of one another. Then again, should this information be so readily available? How does it change our lives when we have to always operate as though we could be Googled by dates, by potential employers, etc.? How do we stand up to inaccuracies that do not go away because someone else owns the site that throws libel against us? Interesting ethical questions… [Of course, Google realizes they’re in a tough place too.]
psy mosh pits
Ok.. that was odd. Last night, i went to see S.U.N. Project at the DNA and found myself needing to brace against one of the poles so as to not be a part of the first psytrance mosh pit i’ve ever witnessed. All the same, my bouncing took on a whole new form and i was quite amazed that my knees lasted until 5:30 (at which point they screamed murder and i limped home). Very weird i must say…
propaganda toys
Does anyone else think it’s odd that JCPenney is selling a Christmas toy (ages 5 & up) with a soldier standing above a bombed out home?
sometimes boyfriends
Men come, they go… a new trend: sometimes-boyfriends.
