Would Kevin Costner be able to get famous today?

I need to start a pop punk band so I can sing a song called “I Like You Better on Adderall.”

"I want a “hack the planet” tramp stamp."

Susan Cohen (duh)

The words would be in a semi-circle in a cyberpunk font.

January is the month for honeybells, because honeybells only grow in January. Every year, my dad gifts me with a box of them, and then all I do for a month is stand over a sink and eat honeybells until I run out. You don’t peel them — you can but you shouldn’t — but you slice them and embrace them with your whole face. You should be sticky with citrus when you’re done. 

The weather has been so warm that every time I eat one I think about Sunday brunch on our patio, with the double-strained OJ my dad makes from their juice. I would make my own juice, but that would take up many honeybells, and I don’t have many. I was starting to panic about rationing (why did I haphazardly share this joy with so many of my friends?), but I can get them locally at the Vegetable Bin and I suggest everyone else in Charleston do the same. 

On another note, I had two really great interview opportunities this week. The first was with Michael Luciano, a local AIDS activist and one of the ACT UP guys you see getting arrested in How to Survive a Plague. The other was with Wade Davis, a gay man, a black man, and a former NFL free agent who now works with LGBTQ youth in New York.

My New Year’s resolution is to pet more dogs. So far in 2013 I have pet one dog. Not bad.

Japanese Poster for Sleeper (Woody Allen, 1973)

Obviously I’m not a reblogger but this is too cool.

I made two purchases this weekend that are so neat that they are easily now the most interesting things I own. 

On the left is Shiny as a Droid. It’s Pat the Bunny for Star Wars. 

On the right is a Kodak screen. It came with the Sawyers Viewmaster projector that I had initially intended to buy, all together for a grand total of $5. I found it all at an estate sale that I chanced on while tramping around my neighborhood, hoping to recover from my decision to stay up until five in the morning so I could eat at Denny’s and drive Margaret to the airport. When I say “drive,” I mean Justin drove. 

I saw the projector and brought it to the sale table and a woman said, “Aren’t you going to get the screen?” 

Of course I’m going to get the screen.

Then I wrapped the screen in the rug that I also bought and carried the hefty weight the two or three blocks back to my house. 

(It is not a carousel projector, as popularized by Mad Men. I assume it is much older than that.)
