Eight Reasons.

Taken from CrimethInc. Collective. I should let you know that I am in no way opposed to wearing deoderant WHATSOEVER. I think this gives an interesting perspective. I'm not necessarily sure about the "deoderant wearers are insecure" part, I mean, I DO wear deoderant but that's because I'm Arab and if I don't wear deodorant then... Yeah. Also, I should point that people should wear deodorant instead of anti-persperant because anti-persperant fucks you up! It's got parabens in it and that basically promotes cancer (even for guys). So yeah, here it is, love, n.

Eight Reasons Why Capitalists Want To Sell You Deodorant.

1) Body smells are erotic and sensual. Capitalists don't like that because they are impotent and opposed to all manifestations of sensuality and sexuality. Sexually-awakened people are potentially dangerous to capitalists and their rigid, asexual system.

2) Body smells remind us that we are animals. Capitalists don't want to be reminded of that. Animals are dirty. They eat things off the ground. They are openly sexual. They don't wear tuxedos or corsets or have their hair done.

3) Body smells are unique. Everyone has her own body smell. Capitalists don't like individuality. There are millions of body smells but only a few deodorant smells. Capitalists like that.

4) Deodorants are harmful. Many capitalists like that because they are always looking for new illnesses to cure. Capitalists love to invent new medicines. Medicines make money for them and win them prizes. They also cause new illnesses so that they can invent even more medicines.

5) Deodorants cost you money. Capitalists are especially pleased about that.

6) Deodorants hide the damage that capitalists' products cause to your body. Eating meat and other body pollutants sold by capitalists makes you smell. Wearing pantyhose makes you smell.
Capitalists don't want you to stop wearing pantyhose or eating body pollutants.

7) Deodorant-users are insecure. Capitalists like insecure people. Insecure people don't start trouble. Insecure people also buy room freshners, hair conditioners, and makeup.

8) Deodorants are unnecessary. Capitalists are very proud of that and they win marketing awards for it.

Black and white.


These are my new shoes. I love the print, the design, and most of all, the COLOUR. I am obsessed with black and white; the print on this is what it looks like inside my mind the majority of the time. I'm glad I graduated to these slips, from my previous black and white shoes:


These boots here are from when I went through my OI!/punk rock phase. I still do love them, I guess the only reason I really stopped wearing them was because the sole SUCKED and was made of the worst rubber possible, which just led to me overshooting my quota for public humiliation (and trust me, it is already quite high as it is). Either way, I like them.

Next we have the checkered flats. Now, THESE are from my rudegirl/ska phase. I guess it's really just a continuation of my oi/punk rock phase. I love checkers. Rudie can't fail!



These are my second most recent ones, polka-dot and lace printed sneakers! Although I am ashamed that these are post-Nike Converse (shhhhh), it doesn't change the fact that I love polka-dots AND lace AND black and white, especially when they're all combined flawlessly like this!


In my bio lab today I also saw the most amazing thing. The lab was based on sexual reproduction and development.. Out of all the other sweet things we got to see the most incredible one was the chick eggs. There were two fertilized chicken eggs, one was three days after fertilization and the other was four days after fertilization. A small square about 2 cm all around was cut in the top of each one and they were put under an observation microscope. When I looked in, I could NOT believe what I saw: the yellow yolk had tiny red veins hugging it, and on the yellow yolk you could see a tiny, TINY heart (seriously, it was about 3 mm long 2 mm wide) pumping blood throughout the veins. It was really exciting, I'm not sure what I'm trying to say, I just thought about it all day and it was really neat and made me smile. I hope everyone that reads this smiles too!

300 (the movie)


So I went and watched 300 the last weekend, twice. It was simply amazing! Before I got to go I had a chance to read some reviews. Most of them were positive, but they all touched on a specific point, where they said that the setting of the movie (i.e. the background and stuff) doesn't look realistic, and it certainly doesn't look like Ancient Greece. I didn't even notice that, the setting and the environment of the movie did look like it was set in a fairy tale movie (like Pan's Labyrinth, which by the way is not that bad), but is that the only thing that threw you off? What about the goat the plays the instruments? or the HUGE Persians? and the immortals? That's why I HATE CRITICS. They suck.
