Friday Ephemera

Major crab migration. // Sunrises seen from Mount Fuji. // How to feed your hummingbird. // Sloth-facing, it’s a thing to add to the list. // Your very own Xbox gaming module. // Buzz Aldrin and Thomas Dolby need a little more rehearsal. // Bach, visualized. // Avoid that buzzing, crackling sound. // New York in colour, 1939. (h/t, MeFi) // Under construction. // Cows with luxurious coats. // The Guild of Evil’s partygoer cocaine gun still has some minor issues. // Three languages of politics. // Visualising sound with water. // Ladies sit at a table and read aloud while beneath the table an accomplice pleasures them, for art. (h/t, Peter Forsythe)

See, now I know it's autoposted, I'm not so impressed. ;-)

Malinowski ("Bach, visualized". "z"? *frown*) doesn't seem particularly fond of Mozart, which seems to me a mistake when sometimes it works so well:

The results are an intimate, sexy experience that captures a beauty rarely found in most modern pornography.

Says it all, really.

"The requirement to 'Check Your Privilege' before saying anything is one of the most obviously toss-ridden things yet, experts have confirmed."

The Guild of Evil’s partygoer cocaine gun still has some minor issues.

It's a bit all or nothing.

Morning, all.

Gah. Mortified. If I’d actually posted these things just after midnight I might have had an excuse.

Simen,

I doubt I’m the target audience and was tempted to skip ahead, but I did find myself smiling along with Teresa. You have to admire the, um, fortitude.

svh,

Yes, but on the upside her hair was left feeling invigorated.

But do you have a sushi roller with its own theme song?

Buzz Aldrin and Thomas Dolby need a little more rehearsal.

She blinded Buzz with silence.

Soviet TV exercise program, 1987.

Or, as a poster on another board, who's originally from Odessa, Ukraine, responded when I posted this, "This goes to show that no matter what country you're from, people who are perky this early in the morning are annoying."

Eighties headbands. I’d forgotten about those.

I dunno. I thought Buzz was pretty good.

The last sloth face, Neil Kinnock, was a bit too lifelike. One felt the producer could have distorted the image a bit more.

As for the fluffy cattle... The bull looking over its shoulder was clearly saying: "Go on. Say something pal. Just one word."

[David]

“Go on. Say something pal. Just one word.”

If the cows were smaller – say, the size of a shoebox – they’d be adorable pets. Children would fuss over them with combs and make little hats for them. No?

Ladies sit at a table and read aloud while beneath the table an accomplice pleasures them, for art.

Like a magic trick it would probably be more interesting if you didn't know how it was done.

I also find myself enthralled by the Soviet exercise program. I'm sure my interest in both of these is purely intellectual.

Did anyone else notice the breakdancer at 5:28 and the guy in overalls doing a robot dance at 9:40? That's the great thing about central planning : a government approved robot dance.
