I logged in this morning to find my dash absolutely assaulted by pictures of Emily Ratajkowski.  Mainly in her underwear.  Or lingerie.  Whatever.  I should point out I am not complaining.  I would hope no one following me imagines me shaking my fist at the sky and cursing God because pictures of Emily Ratajkowski showed up.  But it’s the internet, you have to be careful, I just literally saw a guy implying women were throwing a temper tantrum because they would look to see a superhero movie staring a female hero.  And you’d think that sort of thing had to be a joke cause no one could say with a straight face that women are being greedy cause they aren’t satisfied with one that is planned far off in the future but it turns out this guy really did seem to believe that.  So I feel like I should express in very clear words that I am not complaining about picture of Emily Ratajkowski on my dash.  It is a good thing.  It is just also why I posted her because at that point I certainly couldn’t even remember anyone else’s name, She had to be posted.  Today I want to fuck Emily Ratajkowski.

Today is Record Store Day and I am pretty excited cause I have been waiting forever and it’s finally here. It feels fitting to have a musician up here as a result, though unless I am blind she has nothing out there today.  She actually isn’t here because it’s Record Store Day, she is here because her Maxim pics started showing up yesterday afternoon and my god did she look good.  Which is honestly my reaction every time I seem to see new pictures of her.  It has been less than a year since i first posted her and this is her 15th time showing up.  That’s a really rapid rate but it’s because she has so much going for her.  I really enjoy her personality when I hear her talk or read stuff about her.  I am currently converting people to her music as well, which I enjoy.  It’s amazing the purchase she is finding in my social group given we’re pretentious indie douche bags. But she can write a really good pop song.  But today might be, honestly, more just about how good she looks.  She is one of those people, something about her look just clicks with me and… wow she is gorgeous.  Anyway, I have to run cause you know, I am going to go stand in line in front of a record store so I can get in there, buy records and later hold them up and go, “Neener neener I have this and you don’t”.  Today I want to fuck Charli XCX.

So yesterday Internet Taste Maker yourhotlist reblogged an old post of Katy Perry of mine.  The result was alerts all day about people liking or reblogging an old post of Katy Perry.  Seeing it pop up and occasionally glancing at the post caused me to realize that Katy Perry is pretty hot.  If you didn’t know.  You may not know that.  This will be the 51st time I post her so I feel like this is a lesson I already had learned but it’s nice ot have a reminder.  Interestingly I have no real reason to post Katy Perry.  No like, oh she showed up here or did this thing or anything like that.  It is simply my mind remembering she exists and that being enough for my brain to become obsessed with her as it is want to do sometimes.  So today I want to fuck Katy Perry. 

I am finding iZombie to be good, lightweight fun so far.  It’s only a few episodes in and it’s hardly Earth shattering at the moment but I like it.  I’d be lying if I said i couldn’t’ see the Veronica Mars DNA in it but they aren’t really that similar.  Other than tiny blonde girls who have a quick wit.  There is that similarity.  I am slightly uncomfortable with finding a zombie so attractive but I will find a way to live with it.  Somehow.  Anyway, I enjoy it, I am enjoying Rose McIver’s work even if it turns out she was mean to someone in high school.  Today I want to fuck Rose McIver.

Perhaps the singular question of most Western Philosophy is if free will exists or not.  Is there Providence in the fall of a sparrow?  On a more personal level this often manifests itself in if we can ever truly escape our parent’s influence.  Are we what they made us?  Did they ruin us?  Did they shape us?  Do we want to be different?  Can you ever truly be your own person or is even your desire to do so based on how they raised you?  Is everything you do either how your father programed you or a rebellion to what he tried to do?  I feel like these are the heady questions that Bioshock Infinite: Burial at Sea asks and tries to answer.  There be spoilers ahead just so you know.  I finally played this DLC, I don’t know why I waited so long given Bioshock is one of my video game loves.  The real true star of it, and frankly the true star of all of Bioshock Infinite is Elizabeth.  The ending can be seen as very depressing but ti does come across the questions of free will.  Or at least can we escape our upbringing.  What makes Elizabeth such a wonderful character is she is a very human person but she ends up with the powers of a God.  Omniscience and Omnipotence are not really a thing she wants but it seems to be her only option.  The game gave a lot to think about but with a day away from finishing it I am finding the most interesting questions have little to do with alternate reality, instead the it is the same fascinating question of the first game, is Free Will an illusion.  Is Elizabeth doomed to repeat her father’s mistakes?  Will she use people to achieve her ends?  Even with all her power, or maybe because of it, will she fail to see the humanity in the least among us and simply make them pawns?  As she died at the end of the game I felt great sadness.  It was a death she knew was going to happen and yet she still walked forward towards it but with some distance my sadness is lessened.  She chose this because she knew while the outcome for her was death it meant a brighter future for another.  More importantly it meant she broke the cycle of violence that plagued her family.  Her trip to Rapture was never about escaping Rapture.  She could see the future, she knew the consequences going in.  Her trip to rapture was about breaking a cycle of violence and asserting that she could be the person she wanted.  She was not a puppet to how she was raised or the blood that moves through her veins.  She was her own woman.  It is still sad but it was also beautiful.  It is what makes her one of the better video game characters in recent memory and why I adore her.  Why I adore the game.  Today I want to fuck Elizabeth from Bioshock.

I have watched Daredevil  All of it.  I was a little late to the party because the simple truth is I have never cared about Daredevil.  He is one of those handful of Marvel characters that try as I might I just didn’t care.  I have read so many of the classic runs and still just didn’t care.  So by Sunday everyone was asking me what I thought and acting horrified when I said I hadn’t started.  So Sunday afternoon I started it and… here I am less than two days later done.  It turns out it was really good and I cared about Daredevil.  This was impressive and speaks to just how good the show was.  Among the high points was Deborah Ann Woll who really made Karen Page very likable and loveable and just an important key to the show rather than just the girlfriend character I suppose she could be on a lesser show.  Of course, this is Daredevil so I spent the entire season in dread of what might happen to her because… well, if you don’t know, nothing ends well for anyone in Daredevil in the end.  If there is one constant it is tragedy.  And well.. I know what happened to her in the comics.  So a lot of dread all season for her and the sweeter and better Deborah Ann Woll made her the more frightened I got.  Anyway, this is the first time I have posted her even though I always knew it would happen on day.  Long before this casting was announced because she was always someone that when I saw her pop up on the internet I found very attractive.  I just have never seen a single thing with her in it before so… you know she was just some pretty face I had no real connection to.  Now I have one.  She was great.  Daredevil was great.  Go binge it.  Today I want to fuck Deborah Ann Woll.

Big weekend this weekend with lots of big entertainment options, Game of Thrones is back, Mad Men is making it’s final push, Daredevil showed up, Coachella is going on, and of course the MTV Movie Awards happened.  I could have sworn they used to happen during the summer but then I am old and forgetful so it seems really likely I just forgot and am wrong.  Lord knows I am not going to go look that up.  Anyway, I have decided Charli XCX won because I think Charli XCX is beautiful and I liked what she wore.  So all hail Charli XCX as she wins what is clearly the most important award of all, my approval.  Today I want to fuck Chali XCX.

So if you care about such things there is a very good chance you know that Game of Thrones comes back tonight.  If you don’t care about such things there is a good chance you have been unable to escape this fact.  I sorta care about these things.  For me Game of Thrones is a little like homework in that for like 15 years friends have been pestering me to read the books and then once the show started the chorus of people demanding I somehow acquaint myself only grew.  So i read the books and caught the show about 2 years ago and you know, it’s ok.  It is fun.  I don’t think I am as into it as everyone else which always makes me feel bad.  It’s almost like yawning during sex, someone else is really into this and if you show some indifference it’s a pretty big insult.  And I don’t mean that but like for me I am going to watch tonight certainly but if the world wasn’t constantly reminding me it was on I probably would have forgotten until like Tuesday or something.  That said, I am in full agreement with the legions of people who think Emilia Clarke is beautiful.  I feel like you don’t have to be a fan of the show to recognize this, as a matter of fact my dear friend whole-lies-and-half-smiles is filled with hate for anything that brings the masses joy (well, maybe not really but it’s fun to accuse her of it) but she has commented multiple times that she is always amazed by how beautiful Emilia Clarke is when someone reblogs her.  I think she’s said something about her smile and I get that, Emilia Clarke is someone who seems to smile with her whole being, it’s pretty infectious.  And she is so beautiful, that face is just extremely pretty to look at.  It was nice of them to make her one of the few decent people on the show so I wouldn’t have to sit around going, “Oh, sure she murders children and kicks puppies but… I mean, still, I could overlook that, right?” This was pretty disjointed and pointless, sorry, enjoy your rape, murder, and backstabbing tonight guys.  Today I want to fuck Emilia Clarke.

So I was watching this video Adam Green’s Scary Sleepover which is a solid enough idea for an internet show and obviously a thing I would check out, especially once I saw Danielle Harris was in the episode.  He rightly identified her as a lot of horror fan’s crush and what struck me the most watching the video is how adorable and charming she is.  I guess I kind of already knew cause I have heard her talk before and listened to long form interviews and stuff but really, just adorable and funny (and a little dirty).  And of course she is very, very pretty.  I wish pictures of her were more plentiful because I watch something like I just did and am always disappointed that I feel like the pictures don’t really capture just how pretty she is.  Because she is so pretty.  And I guess that’s about it, this is the 6th time i have posted her which is kind of impressive for someone most of you have probably never heard of.  Today I want to fuck Danielle Harris.

Some friends and I were discussing music a week or so ago and for some reason this turned into some kind of dick measuring contest via spotify that I sadly could not participate in for multiple reasons, the foremost being I don’t use Spotify. Anyway, they were all comparing most recent listened to albums as a way to discuss what we’ve been listening to but also with the soft undercurrent of, “My taste is better than yours:”.  Anyway, one friend, the one with the best tastes honestly, got to Charli XCX’s Sucker and said, “I uh… have been listening to this album a bunch.. I don’t know why”.  He was clearly doing some damage control and was embarrassed, which is stupid for lots of reasons but stems from the misconception that somehow pop music is to be avoided by those who see themselves as part of any kind of underground.  I immediately spoke up and said, “Yo, you’ve been listening to Charli XCX so much because she is a remarkably talented Pop song writer and writes amazingly catchy and good pop songs.  That’s why.  No big mystery”.  And then everyone kind of sighed a relief and everyone started talking about how much they enjoy Charli XCX.  Because you know, you can take the former record store employee music snob douche bags out of their 20′s but you can’t totally remove their bad habits.  Anyway, I hope as a group of friends we’re past that and can recognize that while a lot of pop music is bad, just like any other genre, plenty of pop music is good.  As far as problems go in the world this is a minor one but it is one I’d like to see conquered at some point.  Anyway, that was my little personal story to start this that took the entire time.  Whoops.  Well, Charli XCX is talented and she is gorgeous and she’s here because of that.  I am way into her and into her music and today I want to fuck Charli XCX.
