Can't post to my blog, but this deserves a wider audience anyhow:

The JD calendar.

This special edition collector's calendar features JD Samson of Le Tigre fame hard at work on a different job for every month of the year. Photographed by Cass Bird for Girlie Press, these seasonal pix of the best loved mustachioed moll since Frida Kahlo will have your upper lip sweatin' from January till December! Don't delay - Calendar available for a limited time only

JD the stable boy, JD the hustler, JD the pool cleaner, JD the lesbian will enter your home and become a part of your daily life.

Did I mention it's my birthday soon? Did I?

How funny... that underwear bag ("Customers who bought this also bought") is made by a friend of moriarty.

oh wow, the same one that makes the w-woman knicks, by any chance?

how cool...

Persephone

I don't know, but she has her own store called Crackers and Honey.

Sort of a funny story about moriarty, her, and me... but me is late for work (again).

So which month does she work as a lesbian then, and what is she doing in that picture, or do I not want to know?

Mmmmm. All right, so it's not so small, but I wants it, my precious...

Uh. Pity Le Tigre have such a dodgy record when it comes to transgender issues. Not that anyone seems to care about that.

FWIW, Chol, I am aware of and troubled by le Tigre's stance on Ladyfest. I am aware that they were not the only band to play there, but I do believe it to be a complicating issue.

Deva once said on this board that it is possibly the role of women-only festival to continue to exclude transpeople, and the role of transpeople to continue to protest this, until a balance ids struck (forgive me if I am oversimplifying). I'm happy to concede that le Tigre are in the greater scheme of things a Good Thing (tm), but the admission rules of Ladyfest and other such events continue to trouble me enormously...

When's your birthday? I'm pathologically committed to never letting a birthday go uncelebrated. Unless you don't want to celebrate it. But then why would you draw attention to the fact?

The little thing I always need is ... my VCR. I'm a technofearful moviehound who tries to watch a movie a day and usually fails.

08:54 / 30.01.03

Thanks, Haus. I was being particularly snotty... I apologise...

ONLY NICE THINGS

09:08 / 30.01.03

Not at all, Chol; vocal advocacy for transpeople's rights is a definite good thing.

BiP - any more small objects of desire, given that it's your birthday soon and everything?

Meanwhile at the Haus small objects of desire, we have this little beauty

Utterly pointless. I already have an MP3 player. I already have a USB storage device. If I wanted to store filews on my MP3 player, I could anyway. But it's so pretty...

And I categorically don't have this. And I'm not going to, either, goddammit. I don't need it. I don't want it. I don't I don't I don't.

I never felt this way about iPods. I think because they looked too much like Matthew Barney paraphernalia given a good scrub...

I would like something I can wear to the 'wet' party tonight, despite having foolishly decided to buy food instead of clothes this week.

Why not go as a carrot? It worked for that Arcimboldo.

No star here laces

09:14 / 31.01.03

I want a pair of designer ripped and patched baggy jeans as rocked by the Boot Camp Clik and cannot find anywhere. Feh.

No star here laces

09:14 / 31.01.03

Also grey and white air jordans. And it's my birthday sooner.

What's a 'wet' party?

Some straightforward black drainpipe jeans that aren't fucking crap expensive fashion ones would be nice..

14:01 / 31.01.03

I don't think there is a single item of material culture that I presently want. Well...I did see a very cool electric dagger in an online SM shop though. And this shop has some very sexy dungeon furniture. Seeing as I'll never be able to afford it, I'm wondering if it'd be more cost-effective to train as a carpenter. And I do need a few bits and pieces for my camera, most urgently a skylight.

Ariadne

14:21 / 31.01.03

An electric dagger? What does it do, exactly? Like an electric carving knife, but it stabs in and out? Scaree.

I want ... god, too many things. A nice shiny Viao would be groovy. And a camera phone. And a Brompton bike.

Oh, and it's my birthday soon too, if there are any generous millionaires reading.

Ariadne

14:23 / 31.01.03

Oh, and a BIG obect of desire -- I want to get to Manchester tonight to see my favourite object of desire. Snow shall not thwart me. Or rather, it might. So any generous snow gods out there, please behave.

Bear

14:29 / 31.01.03

Well you could always ask Persephone -

?

I'd quite like the new shiny Gameboy Advance, probably never use it but it looks really nice.

Bear

14:30 / 31.01.03

And maybe a refreshing course in HTML.

that

14:32 / 31.01.03

No - the point is kind of to blindfold the sub...having shown hir the knife beforehand...and the electrical current, whilst not strong enough to actually cause any damage, makes the knife feel like it is cutting flesh. Add a little warm oil, and the whole thing is apparently very realistic. The whole 'ohmigod it's a real knife' thing only works once per person though, obviously.

Ariadne

14:33 / 31.01.03

'Seph, you out there? Heeeeelp. Please replace the snow with sunshine. Or at least sprinkle salt on the runway.

cheers, mate.

14:34 / 31.01.03

Bear - I had a Game Boy Advance for a month or so. Thje graphics are impressive for such a small little beast, though the un-augmented screen is a little dark (I believe you can get some sort of light thing for it though). After failing miserably at the Attack of the Clones game, and kicking arse too easily in all the fight games, I got sick of it. Luckily the shop accepted it back without question.

Ariadne

14:35 / 31.01.03

Chol -- well, gulp. Thanks for explaining that. I think.

that

14:37 / 31.01.03

It's a blunt knife, if that helps...

14:50 / 31.01.03

Actually I can't think of anything else. apart from about a million records.

For now, wellness would do me. *sniff cough hack*

Erm, unlimited credit in my favourite restaurants... not *exactly* a small thing... but very much desired...

ONLY NICE THINGS

14:51 / 31.01.03

And clearly rather a......subtle one.

Cholister - I wish you'd warned me about that link! Phew! Medical equipment and 19th century iron restraints..... And there was I, thinking there was nothing I wanted for my birthday.
