Could it be butter?

COULD IT?

I didn’t realise butter could have existential angst, too.

We call the corn/sunflower/etc oil paste “margarina” 

Is this it? English is weird…..

Schrondinger’s Butter is cracking me up…

I love H-E-B’s You’d Think It’s Butter! It cracks me up every time I buy it. It also reminds me of back in college the Student Art Guild sold breakfast every Thursday morning to raise money. We had a tub of I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!, but we made a new label for it: “Holy Shit, This Ain’t Butter!

Student Art Guild is also where I met a girl who I am convinced is the only person in the world who does not like music (besides those with melophobia). We once sold some toast to the live nude model who was working in the drawing class that day. Good times.

“Tired. View.” by Girling from Songs About Friends (Good and Bad), 2012

Lately you don’t seem the same
And I want everything the same
I wanna still turn you on
I could just stare at you for days
But when I get too close
I can hear a slight sigh
I can sense a malfunction
And I feel sad

Five years ago today, Voxtrot released their first and only LP. It wasn’t what many people were expecting or hoping for, but I liked it. I still like it, and I feel I appreciate the lyrics and the themes of the songs more now than I did when it was first released (or maybe I appreciate them in different ways: “Easy” now reminds me of a totally different person and set of situations than it did when I first heard it).

I really think that people need to go back and re-listen to this album by itself because it’s a good album. Don’t listen to it with the expatiation of something just like their three EPs in mind. Just listen to it and enjoy it for what it is.

John Vanderslice & the Magik*Magik Orchestra - “Promising Actress” (live)

Happy 45th birthday to John Vanderslice (born May 22, 1967)! He’s one of the nicest musicians I’ve met. If you ever have a chance to see him live, do it. The shows are awesome.

Britt Daniel is now in a super-group of sorts called Divine Fits with Dan Boeckner (Handsome Furs/Wolf Parade) and Sam Brown (Bomb Turks).

The reason I’m making this post is not to inform you about said group (you probably have already heard of it elsewhere), but to point out that their website is like a freaking fever dream. I have yet to find any information about the band (save one picture of all three guys) or their music on it, but I did find a recipe for flan and 1/1 apartment listings in Temple, TX. I’ve had dreams pretty much just like this… I’m trying to find one thing, and while looking in the logical place I find many seemingly random and unrelated things instead. I keep spiraling farther down into the pit of unrelatedness, and then I awake in a sweat. I get up, pace around, but one or two things from my dream stick in my brain. Before I know what I’m doing, I’m off to find something I saw. (Then misadventures ensue.)

Pheromone now featured on Fab.Fab.comOf the millions of diverse arthropod species, only a microscopic percentage merits inclusion in Christopher Marley’s exquisite artwork, Pheromone. Displayed in hermetically-sealed shadow boxes are the most stunning arrangements of butterflies, exotic moths, damselflies and ornate beetles found on our planet. 

I wish I had enough money to buy all (or even just one!) of these pieces.
