hat it still perpetuates racist ideas, and it is, in fact, racist. While people may ardently claim that they are not racist, the people who engage in hipster racism are overwhelmingly white and middle class, and they clearly have some unaddressed racial issues which are being subverted in their attempts to be edgy. Sometimes, they are actually explicitly racist, and they are using hipster racism as a way of presenting their racism in a way which will be acceptable within their social groups.

— "Hipster Racism" via this ain't livin'


I just read this quote on a friend's tumblr, and it seemed particularly timely what with this new Amanda Palmer ridiculousness going on.  You can read about what I me
an here (warning: That post contains graphic pictures of Violence and murder. You Can Read about what's going on at the top AND NOT scroll down to the images if you'd prefer.)
And Also this quote from The Same post:

The very hipster lifestyle is, in Some Ways, racist, and definitely not very introspective when it comes to race. Hipsters Are a driving force behind gentrification, driving out low Income people and people of color. Consistently They co-opt and Other Appropriate elements of cultures, piecemeal, and Often Without Any Respect or cultural sensitivity. Regularly They draw upon the work and legacy of people of color, crediting Usually Without Them, and MOST of Their contact with people of color eat in the form of the service personnel Them Their serving food, cleaning Their wine bars, and picking Their organic produce. Personally I'd take product placement over hipster racism any day of the fucking week. AND IT'S NOT LIKE EITHER ONE OF THEM ARE NEW.

Tiffany Granath Pregnant learn ... Those events from're Smarter Than You Think

In marketing there is the common concept of “know your customer”, it´s the bottom line to like… everything. I´ve been thinking about this recently when thinking about what the “right” in Nicaragua does wrong, and what the “left”/ Sandinistas do right. It amazes me really that there is so much that the “derecha” hasn’t figured out. Nicaraguans in general have one big problem – they are mentally squared. Nica´s of all ages, races, SES, etc have a really hard time getting out of their own brains. WHAT A PROBLEM. I´ve sometimes thought “well that’s what you learn when you leave Nica” but the truth is I\u0026amp;rsquo;ve met several ppl who have left Nica for years but still suffer from Nica squareism.

The more that I have spent time in poor neighborhoods and towns, the more I’ve realized the reach of the sandi´s. Like I mentioned in my ad campaign post , they are idiots, yet have a substantial level of genius. And why? Cause they know their customers – “el pueblo”. The Sandinistas are full of marketing geniuses.

I spent a while this morning on the website: http://www.elpueblopresidente.com/

First let’s think about what the Sandinistas call themselves - Gobierno de Reconciliacion y Unidad Nacional…

Soulsilver List For Poketex book rec: the death and resurrection traveling show

The Traveling Death and Resurrection Show by Ariel Gore

The story of a troupe of seven performance artists, narrative by a lapsed Catholic Whose "trick" is manifesting stigmata, and What Happens To Them When They get a little too Attention half much. Gore's father is an excommunicated Catholic priest, and her bio says she Grew up rebel historical Attending Catholic church in San Francisco. It shows. The book is interwoven with irreverent Takes on the lives of the saints . (Representative quote: "Thérèse [of Lisieux], You Were Little, pero bad-ass. Teach Me To Be Such an awesome failure.") The Structuring Mythologies Are Equally Catholicism punk performance and the Aesthetic: other performers include a bearded woman with the singing voice of an angel and a drag queen Who Can levitate. It's Firmly rooted in the multicultural, diverse and kind of hippy-dippy world of the West Coast.

Have Been Some books on my radar for years, But I do not get around to reading Them Until later. Some books come along at the perfect time in my life. This book is in Both of Those categories. At this literal, exact moment, I Need To Remember That Catholicism and the joyous, feminist anarchy of punk aesthetics dog mix. Catholics Can Have tattoos too! (So stop looking at me weird DURING mass.)

While I'm not denying that orientalists were "smitten" with Eastern cultures, I am saying That Are Their feelings irrelevant.

How To Trade Pokemon Deluge dw is love

se of which I am a part (fandom).  As such, they make boneheaded business-based decisions.  They hurt users.  They care about our money, and our potential to bring in advertisers, and not about the things we are making or the relationships we are forging.  It's possible that you don't care about those things.  I do.  I'm still way too much of an anarchist to accept what LJ stands for.

+ Even still (anarchist tendencies totally put aside), DW makes it easy to not have to leave LJ.  They want you to be happy! 

 

That's a nice segue into the next thing, which is how I use Dreamwidth (without giving up LJ completely, yet), and how you can too: Cood way to let people know you have a DW, in case they want to find you over there. 

+ If you add people who also crosspost to LJ, you can maintain your relationship over there without having to read the same posts twice.  By setting up a default view friends group at LJ, you can choose not to have certain users appear on your flist, though you are still friends with them.  This FAQ details how to set it up.  If that's confusing, you can also ask me and I will run you through the process.

+ These days, here is what my posting and reading process look like: I post at DW, and usually use the crosspost feature so that the entries also show up at LJ.  I read my DW circlefirst (I like to call it my "droll" Because it's funny. Maybe only to me). Then I read my LJ flist, if i have time. Generally I do not miss anything, and I ; still interact with lots of people at LJ. I have not lost touch with Any of my friends, and I have a crapton of new ones as well.

+ Layouts! LJ layout has all the coolest

1. Stop what you're doing. Print Screen.
2. Print screen your current desktop.
3. If you have Photoshop open, print screen.
4. If you have a music player open, print screen.
5. Pick a folder, open it, print screen.

Not a lot up in this browser, though if you look at the dock, you can see all the other windows I've had up and have had to minimize in order to clear the clutter. Also, it is currently 4:56 pm, and I haven't showered or left my couch all day.

Best Buy Battery Trickle Charger Managing your privilege

and good in the world. It's kind of like Taking Advantage of your inheritance. I UNDERSTAND the feelings of Wanting to build your own empire, make your own money, build your own house. But if by default You are going to inherit a property, a house, etc. Do not turn down this inheritance INSTEAD But use it as a Means to grow your empire even more. And by growing your empire I mean doing good with it, Not Necessarily empire building to money only. A volunteer friend of mine, Joe, told me ever eleven That He Does not Want to Be Rich. That He Wants to live humbly just always, work for social justice and just always Be poor. I think that's really cool and Takes courage. Not Many people will choose a life Like That. The thing is I do not think choosing ayourself to believe a dog utopia Actually exists.

How Soon Should You Wax Before Holiday after the breakdown, we where standing back up

days I'm under contract at the theatre.  Bahhh, anyway. I feel like it's a race to see who can get something done and out there first — you know Ryan Ross is a competitive little bitch — and The Young Veins are kind of taking the lead.  New Panic had a new single out first, true, but
TYV

Fall Out Boy
Patrick Stump:   SOLO ALBUM OH FUCK YEAH.  
PStump is clearly letting his time-traveling 15 year old self housesit and play around in the music room. 

He also made a
short film which they are trying to get into festivals, and which you know spawned a million cute moments like this one
.  Also then they took the movie and cut it into a
trailer in which Patrick is essentially slashing himself with a dude I know from high school. My life is fucking weird, y'all.  The Damned Things:
Joe Troh and Andy Hurley and Keith from ETID and a bunch of other dudes.  It's not really my thing but I'm glad they're getting a chance to do what they love.

Fuck City, Burning Empires:   Andy Hurley has a millir, I am impressed because I totally didn't know Greta's voice could sound like that.  I think it will grow on me.  Hell, I know it will grow on me because Greta is like a little virus of cute and you thought you were immune but you totally weren't.
