I have but one picture this time and I think it's safe to say that I will put it behind the cut!

Back in MA. Very tired and have a cold, suck but it was great seeing everyone.

So... I'm coming to Boston on Wednesday and was thinking of attending the Wednesday Stainless event at Zuzu. Come join if you're bored and stuff. Then I'll be at Heroes for New Years.

Shoutout to eschewv who was party to many of these travesties.

I have no words. Home Suicide Kit:

Some fantastic Jesii (the proper plural for Jesus) in our 2009 contest! A couple of people posted more than one entries, but what the heck, it's Christmas, I picked my favorite and ran with it. So, in no particular order, here are this year's Short Duration Personal Saviors!

(Click on images for more, sometimes regrettable, detail...or visit the original post to appreciate the full majesty of these! I usually have trouble with the poll-generator, so I may repost this in a moment with working poll...)

Aryan baby Jesus was not pleased with his offering of myrrh. Instead of angels, He gets hamburger chefs heralding his birth.

I finally uploaded my thrift horrors from August onward. ( Proceed to Magical Cut Land. )

Couplingchaos and I are take off for Los Angeles tomorrow, she meets the parents and I show her round LA a bit; there’s a clubnight on Saturday I’m interested in, man I haven’t been LA goth clubbing in like ten years. Helter Skelter and Stigmata were the basis of my experience, they’re not around anymore, it’ll be interesting to check out what it’s like now. I imagine it will be like the clubs in Boston now vs ten years ago: similar, and different.

Then we're off to Hawaii to hang with Pax Industria and family for New Years! Welcoming the next decade from the middle of the Pacific ocean. I like it.

I find this cake so bad it's insulting. WHO PUTS CORN NUTS on a CAKE? (Sandra Lee calls them Acorns because she is dumb as nails)



If you go to the actual Youtube page and look at the comments it is also pretty amusing. Below is the higher quality link to the Food Network page.

In a few different contexts, the past few days I’ve been talking with friends about what happens when you see your friends do really scummy things. It’s a shock, more than anything. Very few things are ugly enough to provoke true emotional disgust, and when one of your closest friends does something utterly slimy, it brings your world to a complete halt. Like stubbing your toe really hard on a doorjamb, you’re like “Unh! What the fuck!?!” So some people will willingly hurt their friends for their own personal gain, ok I get it, we read about it in the newspapers every day. But to actually witness a friend do it, that’s something else entirely.

But the act itself isn’t the biggest deal; I think what matters more is what you do after you do something slimy. Everybody does things they might be ashamed of, when you’re drunk on booze, drugs, desire, whatever. That’s what you did last night. Now, in the bright light of the day, what do you think about it? Is that the person you want to be? In the past, I have lied to people. There have been times when I’ve treated people badly. But every time I have lied to someone, or treated someone badly, or been unfair to someone, I have found them, sat down with them and told them face to face that I’m terribly sorry about what I did, and I have no excuses. And by god I try really, really hard to not use any of those mealy-mouthed platitudes like “I never meant to hurt you” or “I never thought things would turn out this way”. “I never meant to hurt you”? As opposed to when you mean to hurt people? We’re not psychopaths, we don’t intend to hurt people. What you do is ignore what’s going on around you because you think your pain or your deep feelings are an excuse to be a self-absorbed douchebag. “I never thought things would turn out this way”? So usually you can predict the future and you can control people and events that happen, but just this once you slipped up? Stop trying to weasel your way out of your responsibility for your actions, you insincere fuck.

I don’t really have a motive for apologizing. I don’t expect any forgiveness, I’m not trying to patch things up or make things “better”. I think it’s more about my concept of the truth. The truth of the matter is that I did something scummy, and I need to tell them that I recognize that, and I’m sorry I did it. It would be completely understandable for them to continue to think I’m slime and never want anything to do with me. So far, the people to whom I’ve needed to apologize continue to be my friends, and for that I am grateful beyond measure.

I think the two most important things are for me to be completely honest and fair with everyone. Those are the basis for everything in my life; without them, friendship and love mean very little. But I can’t guarantee that I will always be honest and fair, all I can say is that most of the time I am, and when I’m not, I will apologize and try not to do it again. Best I can do, I guess.
