The Angstageddon! It's coming!

Once upon a time there were no tampons in three out of the four girls' bathrooms. We complained to the front office. Now there are magical tampon bowls. We are the tampon heroes of our elitist prep school. And how fine it is!

Dear Writers Of This Blog,


No, not THIS one, this one.

You've gotten confused. This is a drag queen, not a Lady Gaga imitator. Lady Gaga is influenced by Drag Queen style. Don't hate on the Drag Queens for looking like Lady Gaga. They are the original flavor. That's like telling Big Mama Thornton to quit singing Elvis' tunes. If you don't know what I'm talking about Big Mama sang Hound Dog long before Elvis, and it made HELL of a lot more sense when she sang it.

Taste The Blood!!!!!

Ok. I promised blood, and it made me think of a post I can make while waiting for the availability of my camera cord.
Step 1: Watch True Blood
Step 2: Watch BloodWork
There is an episode for every season. Seasons 1 and 2 can be found here.
Season 3 is on their blog.

Our fine gentleman friends (and by friends I mean the managers of a blog who don't know I exist) run CampBlood, a "Homo Horror" site linked to on the sidebar.
Homo Horror is in quotation marks because a) it's their phrase and b) I don't really know what Homo Horror is. It appears to be gay people reviewing horror movies, but what do I know?

NewsFlash!


For the nobody who reads this blog.
We've been experiencing a dearth of posts.
Two of our lovely Tamponettes are Out of Office, aka in the Northeast, home of the Bro and my soul sista Amanda Palmer.
I brought my camera. There will be posts. There will be pictures. This time, ones I take and not ones I download from the internet. There will be music. The kind made with handmade, found-object instruments. There will be hair. There will be women in their underwear. And most of all, THERE WILL BE BLOOD!

I dunno. Maybe there will be blood. But I really have always wanted to say that. Preferably directly before MAIMING someone in a fight.

But for now, there will be this picture of my hotel lobby, which is super cool and super swank and I keep expecting Don Draper to come into the lounge for a drink and a smoke.

Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab,
I am fascinated by your scents.
Click Me for a chance at Olfactory Greatness
And be sure to visit the Trading Post as well!

They have scents named for Neil Gaiman books and Rappaccini's Garden. I'm down with any company that names it's scents after Gothic short stories, that's for damn sure!

I need to order some samples, but they won't get here by the time I leave.

This Fangirl Life

Ira Glass
How has he not made it onto this blog before?
He's the cutest dork ever. I love him. I would take my shirt off and throw it at his limo.

and maybe even Watch

Also, I really hope this is real. I am in the market for a tattoo, you know.

If I had this, I'd probably make out with it. A lot.

Salute To Alan Turing

Alan Turing [June 23, 1912-June 7 1954]

"Founder of computer science, mathematician, philosopher,
codebreaker, strange visionary and a gay man before his time"

His life was fascinating and horrifying. [click]

Somewhere On Planet Gaga


This sort of thing happens.

So much to chat about, but I'll try not to get too wordy. This isn't a word blog.
Okay. So I thought this song was about conducting trysts with multiple (?) Mexicans, or at least latin persons who are hot like Mexico. Possibly just one individual named Alejandro Fernando Roberto. Or something like that.

But this music video is some sort of Steampunk-esque Cabaret-influenced WWII debacle starring Lady Gaga. I think if I ever saw her anywhere, I wouldn't recognize her, because she looks so different in every music video. It's the wigs and makeup. You can do a lot with contouring.

Also, someone had better call Thombeau. I think he might have lost some of his Houseboys to Lady Gaga's version of WWII. I was a bit uncomfortable with the dancing Nazis. I recognize she is drawing from WWII movies, but the Holocaust isn't entertaining. Not ever.

This is why I like Lady Gaga. In her performances and videos, she gives us this view into some strange reality that I identify with and prefer. Nobody dies like they do in real life. They just dance around. Or turn into light. And even sadness is beautiful. I think Planet Gaga is near my home planet. Some day I will return. I don't want to die here on Planet Richbitch.

Also, at the end, when she dies, THAT is what it looks like when you Return to Fabulon, which is, of course, what happens when fabulous people die. I hope it will happen to me.

In other news, Madonna's cone bra has been trumped by Lady Gaga's gun bra.

I Miss When This Was MTV


Not for the faint of heart.

David Lynch's "A Goofy Movie"


A gripping masterpiece of neo-noir psychological suspense. A mesmerizing meditation on the mysterious nature of identity. An inscrutable, profoundly unsettling fever dream, issued from deep within the director’s anguished psyche. A phantasmagorical family saga that ends in murder and betrayal.

More Cakes and More Happiness.

Like, Whoa.

Back From The Dead!

For a third time around!

Oh. You better believe it's coming back.
June 13th.

Back From The Disney Vault!

And looking a little worse for wear, if we do say so ourselves.

Looks like Snow White didn't survive the massacre. Belle is my favorite here. She's a beast.
