"Who would win in a fight? Bruce Lee or Ryan Ferrera?"

i am coming to the realization that children's books are the best books. persepolis is currently my favorite. it's the tale of a young woman growing up in iran during the late 70s and early 80s, throughout the revolution and the iran-iraq war. it's fuck sweet, sad, happy, glad, etcetera, all at once.

and they made a movie too! i don't know if it's out in the u.s. yet.

The first episode of buffy the vampire slayer: the best place to start.

Quoted: In every generation there is a chosen one. She alone will stand against the vampires, the demons, and the forces of darkness. She is the slayer.

Quoted: This new series looks at contemporary American culture through the austere lens of statistics. Each image portrays a specific quantity of something: fifteen million sheets of office paper (five minutes of paper use); 106,000 aluminum cans (thirty seconds of can consumption) and so on. My hope is that images representing these quantities might have a different effect than the raw numbers alone, such as we find daily in articles and books. Statistics can feel abstract and anesthetizing, making it difficult to connect with and make meaning of 3.6 million SUV sales in one year, for example, or 2.3 million Americans in prison, or 426,000 cell phones retired every day. This project visually examines these vast and bizarre measures of our society, in large intricately detailed prints assembled from thousands of smaller photographs.

The first thing Lynch ever committed to film. There is also "The Grandmother," "The Alphabet," and the "Lumiere" piece from David Lynch's "Short Films" collection to be had on Stage6.

OKAY SCRATCH THAT. The other ones are in piss poor quality, though I haven't tried "THe Frenchman", nor "The Grandmother." But this one is good.
