David Lynch is Fishing!



Battle of the Natsu-yasumi - Fumio Nabata



While I do believe in meditation, I take issue with Lynch on this push towards the Maharishi guru thing. There are many routes and I prefer focusing on fish, compost piles, shit, farts and pig ears - with an occasional tea ceremony.

Paul Lewin’s original art sale

Hydra with Horn
Actually the title was mine to the Untitled.
I want the original.
It would work so well in the bedroom.

Unexpected hipster #4 is Carolyn Jones in "A Hole In The Head" by Frank Capra. Jones plays Frank Sinatra's wacky tenant and fun time girl, Shirl.

Salmonella Men on Planet Porno

Over brunch I came across a review of Salmonella Men on Planet Porno and I could not believe I was unaware of Tsutsui – especially if the stories were written in the 1970’s!
K, maybe the fact that he has just recently been translated to English has something to do with.

In the Kafkaesque "Rumours About Me," an ordinary office worker finds himself the subject of 24/7 media coverage, his face on every screen and in every morning paper, his every act streamed on the airwaves. Is someone playing a practical joke? Is it a conspiracy to drive him mad? Is he mad? As the protagonist's sedative-gulping doctor explains, "If your environment is abnormal, then you must be abnormal too. ... If you persist in asserting your own sanity, it proves, conversely, that your environment is in fact normal but that you alone are abnormal. If you consider your environment to be abnormal, then by all means lose your mind!"

Oh, BTW, I may have a sweet porn opportunity (connection), but can't imagine leaving my Kafkaesque life behind.

And what on earth is

Sara Goldfarb spotted at the Democratic Party’s RBC meeting!




Is she not Sara Goldfarb from Requiem for a Dream? It would seem she took a few too many of the purple pills before the Rules and Bylaws Committee meeting.

“
Purple in the morning, blue in the afternoon, orange in the evening, and green at night. Just like that: one, two, three, four.”– Sara Goldfarb
(You have to see the movie in order to really feel the intensity of the reality of dreams. It's morbid and harsh, but 100% true.)
