Because enquiring minds want to know: what is the best way to consume Fluff? Also, music and writing and stuff.

 

99% of women on OkCupid say:

“please be: funny, good looking, college educated, creative, goal oriented, have impeccable style and love dogs.”

The other 1% prefer cats.

a huge thank you to everyone who were forces in the making of this. a large thank you to my iLLmont brethren who were patient with the features and production and the final little stretches of this whole process. ESPECIALLY my manager Powl and L7one, both of them had to be the MOST patient working with me and so thank you for not pullin’ my shit back in the process. thank you to my extended family over here in East ATL, ya’ll gave a nigga shit to write about and held me down. especially Ashley. for gracing my album with your ashy ass arms. Thank you Gaelon for letting this bum nigga and your couch have an ongoing relationship. thank you Cass and Mike, both of you have taught me more about music than either of you could grow to know, R.I.P. Cocaine Adventure. alot of my ideas for music come from you all. thank you to my turtles, ya’ll were some of the few kids to hold me down before you even knew I was rapping and taking it seriously and then supporting my corny ass.special thanks to Brandon and my BKdub folk, and no I’m NOT performin at Afropunk. thanks Ian for sitting still and drinking wine for me. thank you Street Sharks, it was a humble beginning to something that’s not really that much huger hahahaha. thanks Javis, now where is that song at!? and of course every single person who ever listened to a song that I was on and enjoyed what I had to say. this LP is for you.
so pay attention.

If you’re not paying attention, you’re missing out on some inspired music. Glad I’m on the ground floor.

Esto Gaza? I’m even more excited about this Allen Thomas album now.

Tim Wakefield calls it a career
- FORT MYERS, Fla. - After 17 seasons, Tim Wakefield has decided to end his baseball career.

Nooooooooooooooo :(
(But seriously, I love Tim Wakefield. He is pretty old now I guess, but I figured he could throw a knuckleball forever and therefore pitch until he was, like, 60? Sounds reasonable to me! Oh well. I’ll always remember how he was the starting pitcher for the Red Sox pretty much every other time I would go to games with my dad when I was younger. Good luck, bud.)

Some of these pieces of conventional wisdom are easier to follow than others, but there’s hope in my mind that those will help pave the way to the tougher ones.

Oh no! Sara Crow: Never Get Tired Project Update

saracrow:

2011 was the year of a lot of e-mails, facebook messages, and anonymous Tumblr “asks” about the status of the Bomb the Music Industry documentary. I realize I haven’t been in good communication, and I apologize. Promise 2012 will have better, more thorough, and hopefully more exciting updates.

TarGetBooks Shelf - designed by Mebrure Oral, an Istanbul based industrial designer.

This special shelf is basically designed for separating the books that we have read and we will read. It shows you your target books all the time. You don’t need long books list anymore, just buy books on your target and put them on shelf and never forget and postpone your reading plans. It stimulates you, attracts your attention and encourages you to read more.

Good design will change the world, or at least our relationship with reading.

This is blowing my mind right now.

Favorites of 2011: Best way to solidify the end of a friendship

A few months went by and I realized I had no idea what was going on with one of my best friends from high school. Like so many people (probably, I don’t know that many people, just assuming) who feel out of touch with old friends, I thought, “You know, I haven’t heard from her in a while. What’s she up to? Let’s check out her Facebook page,” only to find out that the reason her updates were no longer appearing on my newsfeed was that she had defriended (unfriended? antifriended?) me.

Naturally, a bout of friendship-evaluation followed. Should I have called her more often? It’s not like she ever called me. Did I leave an inadvertently offensive comment on a status update? I thought she liked my sense of humor. Would she be happy to hear that her transgression was used for personal gain, leading to this blog post that few people will read? She’s not much of a Dave Eggers fan, so probably not.

And most importantly, could I call her again and catch up and have the whole thing be forgotten? I still haven’t decided; I’ve been left cold from the Facebook burn.
