Hey guys, it’s my friend @wildflagsure birthday today and she’s had a pretty rough week leading up to it.  Her grandfather passed away and it sucks to lose a grandparent.  It’s not a fun way to spend your birthday and the truth is no one can fix it for her, it just needs time, but maybe you can send some warm wishes or sympathy or just something to remind her that she is cared for.  Because it’s her birthday and anything you can do to help it out will be good.  She is worth it. You should probably be friend with her.  She has really good taste in music, almost as good as mine, she has personally met Zeus I think, and she knows how to make drugs with her own two hands.  I mean, let’s be honest, this is a person you need at your parties.  Anyway, I know things are hard for her right now and I don’t really think of Wolf Alice as being comfort music but Ellie Rowsell is really fun to look at and listen to and I also know that @wildflagsure loves her deeply.  So she seems like a good pick for today.  Cause she’s hot and talented.  So today I want to fuck Ellie Rowsell.

I started watching GLOW Last Night/In the Early Hours of The Morning Depending on Your Perspective and I quite liked the couple of episodes I saw.  I don’t think it is a life changing TV show but I think it is fun and funny and kind of grubby and prickly while ultimately being pretty feel good cause I have the feeling these lovable losers, well, it’s all going to work out for them.  I also have the feeling I will want to post a lot of cast members but they will get overlooked cause there are only so many days in a week and the episodes feel short and… I’ll be done in a couple of days.  Anyway, I was looking up who was who and one of the ones that stood out was the woman who played Rhonda.  I clicked on her name on IMDB and it looked like she had been in 100 things.  Many things I had seen but it was all listed as uncredited.  And I was like… was the an extra until now?  Who puts that on their IMDB?  And her name was Kate Nash but my brain wasn’t clicking until I saw they were all music credits.  At which point I was like, “No way, Kate Nash Kate Nash?”  I didn’t believe it and thought maybe IMDB linked to the wrong Kate Nash or something and did some checking but, yeah, it’s Kate Nash.  In my defense, this happens to me almost once a year, I see Kate Nash and go, that’s Kate Nash?  It looks nothing like Kate Nash.  She seems to look like a completely different person every year.  It’s insane.  And given I last posted her almost 5 years ago, I am willing to believe that if someone ever clicks the Kate Nash tag on my blog they might now believe the posts are about the same person.  Or that even all pictures in this post are the same person for that matter. I am glad to see her.  I knew her label had dropped her some time back because… well, she wanted to go one way and they wanted her to keep making the same song.  SO good for her.  I am glad she has a new thing.  Apparently she lives in America now, I didn’t even know.  But then I realized the last I remember was her handing out water bottles at the London Riots and… man, that’s been a long time.  It’s been a long time.  The days just blur together.  But I was excited to see her and she frankly looks great.  Like a completely different person and she might be some sort of actual literal shapeshifter but… hey, I like it.  I went and listened to Made of Bricks again.  Today I want to fuck Kate Nash.

I am dragging today guys.  It was one of those nights where I couldn’t fall asleep whatever I did so at 4 AM I was laying in bad listening to John Prine records.  Some people might say it’s unhealthy to listen to depressing country music alone in the dark at 4 AM but those people are asleep when I am awake and I turn my ringer off when I am asleep, so I don’t really have to listen to their negativity.  Anyway, the result is I am dragging today because man, the old gray mare ain’t what she used to be.  So this morning has been me discovering I am out of coffee and the store is like… so many blocks away.  So I have just sorta sat here listening to records.  I started with Elvis Costello and then moved on to Rilo Kiley and eventually I remembered that Jenny Lewis and Elvis Costello sang together on a track on Acid Tongue, so I basically have decided that my subconscious is a musical genius for such a clever transition from artist to related artist.  Now I am listening to Jawbreaker and have no idea how that fits in but I assure you if it makes no sense to it’s because it’s probably just too advanced for you to understand.  My brain is just that smart.  Wow, I didn’t start this to talk about how great I am but we ended up there.  This is supposed to be about how great Jenny Lewis is because honestly there aren’t many ills he voice can’t cure.  Or at the very least just listening to her sing is a very pleasant way to spend a morning that decent, productive people would point out was really the afternoon.  Today I want to fuck Jenny Lewis.

Boy, I should do a better job on this post but I can’t because I am a big fat lazy American who just had some huge epic fast food meal and am ready to pass out on a couch somewhere.  Preferably my couch but you know, I’m not feeling that picky.  Anyway, Ellie Rowsell, who I find attractive but @wildflagsure does not because Ellie has never been to Wrestlemania, has shown up in some pictures for what appears to be a very expensive magazine.  Well, I guess it’s probably worth it if we get the rare photoshoot.  It is cause for celebration and I do adore Ellie so I don’t need a big push to post her.  So here she is because today I want to fuck Ellie Rowsell.

A bunch of times this week I have found myself thinking about how beautiful Taylor Swift is.  I dunno why, it hasn’t come up any time near when I was posting or anything so she hasn’t been posted.  I am sure there have been pictures of her on my dash or a mention on TV or something.  My brain is not that creative and I am very easily influenced.  Part of her actually being on the brain today is no doubt that she is posting on tumblr again and it is a reminder of how charming she can be.  I don’t know more than that really.  I just had her on the brain and she is very pleasant so… today I want to fuck Taylor Swift.

Sometimes when I go on a run of posting someone a lot I am at a loss of new and interesting things to say here.  It’s unfortunate but there is only so much you can say sometimes.  Still, Ellie Rowsell and Wolf Alice have popped up a bunch in the past two weeks because of the benefit concert they spearheaded to aid refugees.  Which is pretty great of them and I think makes this a Christmas post because helping refugees is a very Christmasy thing to do. That’s right, I have co-opted their effort to make it about Christmas just so I can imply some friends of mine are Grinches.  And I assume would not want to make out with Ellie Rowsell because she’s too Christmasy.  You guys know who you are.  Anyway, she keeps coming up randomly recently and each time I am like, man, she is awesome and attractive.  So here she is again because today I want to fuck Ellie Rowsell.

I got the new Sleigh Bells album and I am digging it.  It is interesting because it sounds just like Sleigh Bells but really nothing like their earlier albums.  I guess the bombast is easily identifiable and I am always grateful for some good noise pop that can get the blood flowing.  The reactions I have seen to it have been mixed but I think that’s a symptom of becoming a big deal once upon a time, it means we don’t always know how to deal with someone after that.  We get bored with the same, we get angry if you stray.  We aren’t sure what we want and that’s uncomfortable.  Also, you know, a number of us are probably unbearable hipsters who don’t want to really commit to an opinion until consensus has been reached.  I assume that isn’t actually most people.  Anyway, it made me think about Alexis Krauss and how she is pretty hot but I have never posted her.  Well, again, their biggest album was before I started this blog and I am a slave to trends.  But she is hot and pretty bad ass and so here she is because today I want to fuck Alexis Krauss.

Happy Thanksgiving guys, I hope you survive the experience.  I know family gatherings and for some reason particularly Thanksgiving can be a stressful time for a lot of people.  It can be hard to sit through your Uncle explaining why he supports neo-Nazis but isn’t a racist, he just wants a change.  Or some guilt trip involving a combination of your hair, the disappointment that is your life, or some other person decision that someone has decided is an attack on them.  I get it.  When someone is deciding to do what they can to diminish you through passive aggressive advice or using rhetorical questions to point out why you and yours are the worst generation, don’t engage.  Use headphones.  Not earbuds but headphones.  Earbuds are too easy for assholes to ignore, the only real purpose they serve is as a test for who is a big enough dick that he thinks what he has to say to you is more important than your clear wish to not be talking to people right now and let’s be honest, you don’t really need a test for that, that sort of person practically announces it.  But headphones, headphones you can just point to them and shake your head.  You can’t hear, sorry, and you’re in a big hurry.  Once you point to them just do a kick-flip and skate away or complete a rim rattling slam dunk and walk off, never looking back (note, these only work if you are skateboarding or playing basketball at the time.  if not think of your own thing.  Whatever you do don’t grab your crotch and shout suck it, this is still your family after all, if you wanted a fight you wouldn’t need headphones).  So my suggestion is when it gets to be too much don’t crack, just grab your headphones and go for a walk.  Chances are no one will even notice you’re gone unless they are looking for an audience for whatever drama they are creating (this might be my family specific, I have no idea).  My point is get out and listen to some music, music is a universal salve, it makes every situation better.  Maybe start thinking about what to listen to now though, random can be dangerous.  Anyway, all of this is why Angel Olsen is here because I think she has my favorite album of the year and there is a good chance she will be making a headphone appearance for me.  Either way I am thankful for her album and her songwriting.  And I am thankful for you guys. Well most of you.  Not you Joey.  You know what you did (I don’t know, I just chose a name at random but I kind of like the idea of making some random person paranoid) and you will get yours.  Today I want to fuck Angel Olsen.

Sometimes I hear things from people about what posts were popular and I should post that person more or like do I ever not post someone because they didn’t get a lot of notes.  No.  I am not a person in general who tends to react to the approval or disapproval of others because I am confident I am right and you are wrong.  Now, I know that sounds arrogant.  And you know, full disclosure I am so, so arrogant.  But in this case it’s just true.  The blog is called who I want to fuck today.  It doesn’t matter at all who you think I should post because you’re fucking wrong if you don’t agree with me.  Cause it’s about my libido.  So Ellie Rowsell only got a few notes last time (and let’s be honest, it’s @wildflagsure’s fault for not reblogging.  I assume because she’s straight now and is willing to let me have dibs on Ellie [side side note, her radio show is today at noon Eastern and if you like Ellie you’ll love this radio show.  Find it here]) but I don’t care.  Cause here are some cold hard facts for you.  She is magnificent.  She is beautiful and talented and plays guitar, the sexiest instrument.  Way sexier than an oboe.  Musicians are fucking hot, guys.  Now, I know that sounds like an opinion but you know, you’ve already embarrassed yourself so much by being wrong already, do you really want to correct me? Today I want to fuck Ellie Rowsell.

So this post is kind of the fault of @wildflagsure who recently reblogged a bunch of pictures of Ellie Rowsell which somehow lead to a discussion about her and Wolf Alice with @she-goes-to-eleven, which kind of lead to me thinking about her and now her being here today but let’s be honest, at the core it all stems from my dear friend @lunoboom.  This is all her fault.  So if you really, really dislike hot guitar players, Izzy is the one to be mad at, it’s her fault cause she’s the one who originally introduced me to Wolf Alice.  I mean, I am not saying you have to get mad at her but her proclivity to share both good music and mention when women are attractive to make her perhaps the greatest threat there is to being a lame-o.  So if you are a lame-o (and you must be to have a problem with Izzy) I fully understand why you are pretty mad right now.  It’s not my fault, it’s @lunoboom‘s.  Get mad t her.  I will just post these pics and get out of the way because today I want to fuck Ellie Rowsell.
