Waiting for Bruno

YAY! Sacha Baron Cohen is working on a film based on his Bruno character from the Ali G Show. Bruno is a fabulous queer Austrian fashionista. Here's Bruno talking with "Der Gay Converter" Should be a great movie, I can't wait. Go to YouTube for more funny clips, including Bruno and the Neo Nazis and Bruno Goes to a Christian Rock Festival...


Hmmm, "eating chocolate as part of a homosexual lifestyle?" Well, cover me in some chocolate salty balls and call me Mary!!!


P.S. I think Sacha Baron Cohen is HOT! And enjoyed the naked Borat scene because I saw a tall lanky hot nekkid man rolling around with some fat hairy-assed faux-Kazak. That's hot.

Girlie Crush: Mia Doi Todd

A couple months ago I came across a couple Mia Doi Todd tracks, mostly remixes. Her voice is beautiful and haunting and SHE is beautiful and haunting...it's the kind of music to make love, grieve, give birth, smile and cry. I fucking love her!


Here are a couple of my fave videos and songs of hers:

Deep at Sea (given my raverlicious past really love this video. her makeup is great and so is her outfit, go girl! i think this is her 'older' stuff maybe - don't quote me on that)


My Room is White (I think this is her more recent work. I LOVE this song. She is a great songwriter, Geez Louise girl!)


Okay, so this is Dntel featuring Mia Doi Todd "Rock My Boat" This video is freaking cool man, WATCH IT. This is also the song that introduced me to her :)


Man, I want to keep going, but I have to get to work and am being booted off by the ol' ball and chain

"Night of a Thousand Kisses" (a love her hair!)

Our Friendly Neighbors Up North

HAPPY CANADA DAY!

I'm not Canadian, but boy do I love our neighbors up north! Some of my fave comedians come from there, like

David Cross



Kenny Hotz (of Kenny vs. Spenny, I guess Spenny's aiiight)


Kids in the Hall!


Canadians also care for each other, as their health care for all system attests. They also have like less violence and stuff.

Softer Marijuana laws (this photo came up when I searched for photos of violent Canadians!)


Vancouver

If you haven't been to Vancouver, I highly recommend it. It's a beautiful, fun city with lots of green and good shopping.

Montreal

If Vancouver and Montreal had a battle, I can't say for sure who would win, but I LOVE Montreal! I've never been there in winter and I don't think I'd recommend that, but man, Montreal in spring is great! The food is good, people are chill, the vibe of the city is just so cool. And they have delicious bagels!!! Smaller than NYC and more light and fluffy, AY!

Canada also has beautiful wilderness. Now, I've never been camping out there, but it is WILD country up there! I want to go do this up in Canada...(sigh)




And, of course no tribute to Canada would be complete without bowing down to Canada's greatest export...


Followed closely by...


HOT DAMN!!!


I LOVE you damn Canadians! Les Canadiens, je vous aime !

Nazis for Gay Pride

Here's the Mayor of San Francisco, Gavin Newsom, and his fiancee Jennifer Siebel "saluting" the crowd at the 38th annual SF LGBT Pride Parade. Who knew he was into Nazis? And so nice to see him adopting Michelle Obama's famous "terrorist fist jab!"

Amy Winehouse: Hot Junkie Mess

Since I use my blog to listen to my cool tunes now, I couldn't stand the tits staring out from me first thing...I mean, they are cute tits, but here's the thing: Miss Lewd Lavolita is torn between being as fucking lewd as possible and fronting as a classy lady, but really I'm a Hamburger-Helper-raised, spit-on-the-streets-raised and so sometimes there is conflict (agita if you will)

Whateves. I ain't no punk-ass psychologist, but I play one on the blogosphere. Here's Amy Winehouse at the Glastonbury Fair '08...my analysis is "She's totally cracked out and I think the fan may have been some kind of freak that was into that kinda thing. I mean the girl weighs what 60 pounds?! Her face doesn't look particularly pissed off....eh, the bitch is CRAZY! Enjoy!

Summertime Boobs and Other Fun Stuff

Yesterday I went to the Dyke March in SF and lemme tell you: Dykes this year like to show their boobs more than last year! Here's a pair of SF Boobs (a la Dave Chappelle's great "NY Boobs" skit!)


There were parts that felt like Mardi Gras, seriously. With beads being thrown for boobs shown, it's cool. I'm down with women liberating their tits and all, but I am definitely more modest.

Anyway, I had fun yesterday, got lifted, hung out with some pals, marched and then ate some yummy Indian food...I had to walk home though!!! I walked like mad yesterday! The buses were all delayed and shit...for those who know SF: The march was in Dolores Park, it marched down from there to Guerrero and then back up 16th street to Market & Castro. Then, after dinner, I had to walk from the resto (nr Castro Mkt) all the way to my house near Divisadero and Sutter!!! Mad trek. I take it easy today.

So, I also want to post something for all the kiddies! Here is a list of other fun shit you can do in the summer:

1) Play Tennis!


2) Visit your local beach/lake/pond/water spot.


3) Drink Beer OUTSIDE!


This is some random ass pic I found online of one in Astoria Queen NYCers!

4) Take a fucking hike


5) Vacate.


Alternately, you can do what I'm doing...


HAVE A GREAT SUMMER FELLOW BLOG SLUTS

It's Not Easy Going Green

I'm happily reading Gorgeously Green by Sophie Uliano. It's got the Oprah seal of approval, so you know I'm all over it.


Since moving out West, I've definitely become more granola, but not in the Birkenstocks-I-wanna-look-like-Jesus kind of way, no. My body and mind led me to the decision to make a conscious effort to be more green. If our country wasn't stuck in a two-party system, I would totally join the Green Party. My ethics and morals are more aligned with what that party believes, but I got to vote for Obama!!!


Anyway, I got side-tracked: so I'm reading this book and lemme tell you! Capitalism has led to toxic chemicals being put in every fucking thing!!! Dishwashing liquid, face creams, lotions, soaps, household cleaning products, even....vinyl shower curtains!!! This bitch can make an argument for everything. I am slowly going green though.


I kind of explained above how my mind led me to this place, well here's where it gets super real:


I started getting red, irritated itchy-ass armpits!!! I had contact dermatitis, which is a fancy way for saying "skin irritation most likely called by some toxic chemicals you put on or in your body!!! (eeeewww, there's so many gross pics on google pics of different kinds of contact dermatitis, mine's looked kind of like this - mild, thank goodness!)






I saw a pattern emerge, when I wore deodorant (and I'm talking Tom's of Maine and that Crystal Stick shit, already "natural") my pits would get irritated. Also when I shaved (now I use all natch shave cream and moisty strip razor and it's better) it would get fucked....now I am a lotion and pure cornstarch girl. That's all that goes on my pits and I am liberated!!!


Now that I have slowly begun incorporating eco-friendly products and ways on living in my life, I feel like, "Uh it's not enough!" Whateves. I'm of the world-on-your-shoulders-type.

Alright, gotta head off and start my day...Go Green!!! Do it! Just be conscious of what you consume and ways you can reduce, reuse and recycle! I also really recommend her book, of course.

Oprah and her best friend Gayle
