This post by Jocelyne Allen plus the part two made me really excited to read this book. The prospect of using “the sexual to interrogate the spiritual, and the spiritual to explore capitalism” is just too enticing…😲 brainvsbook.wordpress.com/2019/03/22/a...

Fascinating interview with artist Marie Lorenz by Brian Nicholson for TCJ 🛶🛟 Definitely going to check out her sculptures when I visit Nyc next week. Wonder if I can finagle a tide taxi ride as well… www.tcj.com/marie-lorenz...

Reading a lot of Gabrielle Bell to prepare for an upcoming Nyc trip
Panel from Gabrielle Bell’s “The Voyeurs” depicting Gabrielle at the Genius bar; the man behind the desk says, “It looks like there’s a smudge in your disk drive. We can fix it.” Gabrielle says, “Oh, good.” He follows up with, “I heard they’re putting a Starbucks on Manhattan Avenue.” She responds, “No!” Lol 😭

It’s driving me crazy that I can’t watch the follow up episodes to this series. They don’t seem to be on iplayer with the rest of the show…You would think with true crime being so popular I could find them somewhere, but no, the trackers are empty, my fields are barren, no harvest to speak of 😫

I don’t like tomato soup so here is my variation using cherry tomatoes from my backyard garden; the tomatoes are stewed in mirin with some garlic & whatever pepper is harvestable (shishito or thai chile), add red curry paste & coconut milk, cook for ten min then blend with tomato water & serve 👨‍🌾

I can’t believe for once in my life I agree with this crank. I watched these 3 films consecutively last week, and the first thing I thought of was that they all move at a snail’s pace with nothing to show for it in the end…Although I would replace “internet” with short form videos specifically

I never thought anything would annoy me more than the egregious misuse of the term “trope” (the defamiliarization of which I blame entirely on the website Tv tropes), and yet, the constant refrain of “breaking kayfabe” coming from only the unfunniest among us has really taken the cake.

Funny to cite these two american directors in particular, both of whom I think we all know way too much about for there to be any mystery as to what’s real & what’s fictional in their cinematic depictions of themselves…But I do get the comparison. Lol 🥴

Really enjoying these scuzzy goresex videos from Damon Barr & Marie-Anne Ferral. I wish I could find more, although I’m surprised how easily accessible these two are considering their films were only released on tapes that now sell for like +$250 on ebay.

It sucks that the phrase “torture porn” was latched upon by losers unwilling to take up formal arguments of extreme violence in fictional films, or think about how we might engage with that violence, cuz it really diminished the ontologically real category of porn in which someone is tortured. ☹️
