Oily Saturday
- Shifting Sands, Edward Burtynsky’s photographs of oil operations in Alberta, Canada. Presented in interesting zoom&pan style, some with voice explanations.
- The Rules. Somebody tell Peggy about this, she’d love it.
- Former sanitizer of rental movies is accused of paying teens for sex — the hypocrisy at the center of social conservatism continues its march into the open.
- Some hippie thing: Jesus Dress-up.
- How to eat sushi at a bar (YouTube).
- Crazy photos from a nuclear explosion.
- Let’s have some music, yes? Caravans, To Whom Shall I Turn, Jens Lekman, A Postcard to Nina (solo live on ukulele, and note that this song as a few of the best lines ever in a song, e.g. “I send back out-of-office auto-replies,” and so what the heck, one more bonust Jens: The Opposite of Hallelujah ), 80s cheese, Michael and Adrienne sing Who’s got the Crack?, Sinéad O’Connor, Troy (no fun at all with a green screen), Parliament Funkadelic, Mothership Connection, The Sea and Cake play Jacking The Ball, live in Japan 2003, and 10 years earlier, at their first gig, and Animal Collective, The Purple Bottle.
- Finally, here’s everything on the internet you never want to see. You may go to the post and read the descriptions, but do NOT click any of the links. You have been warned.
