From Courtney with LOVE

Courtney Love hat ihre besten Zeiten lange hinter sich gelassen, da sind wir uns wohl einig. Doch sie kann sich noch so viel liften lassen, unsere Liebe zu ihr ist ungebrochen, schließlich ist sie nicht nur die Witwe von Kurt (R.I.P!), sondern war in den 90ies auch DIE Strapse tragende, Bier spuckende Vorkämpferin für Girrrl-Power schlechthin. Auf Nylon TV lehrt sie uns nun das Fürchten, äh, verrät sie ihre Geheimtipps für ein wunderschön-schreckliches Party-Make-up à la Love.

All is love

One, two, ready, go
Grow some big feet, holes in history
Is where you’ll find me, is where you’ll find

All is love, is love, is love, is love

L.O.V.E, it’s a mystery
Where you’ll find me, where you’ll find
All is Love, is love, is love, is love

Hey, ooh
Hey, ooh
Ooh ooh…
All is Love

Wer keine Kekse mag, hat kein Herz...

... ist das Motto von Scott Sternberg. Der Gründer des New Yorker Modelabels Band of Outsiders hat deshalb The Cookie Blog gegründet. Da gehts um: Kekse. Und wirklich einzig und allein nur und immer um Kekse. Das klappt gut, weshalb das Blog jetzt expandierte und ein nationales Network ist.

Have a playful weekend!

"La Lagerfeld is a guru"

Filmemacher und Fotograf Bruce La Bruce hat für das Vice-Magazin anderthalb Stunden mit dem Kaiser höchstselbst geplaudert. Hier einige Auszüge aus dem wirklich amüsanten, siebenseitigen (!) Interview:

// You are against the idea of gay marriage. I totally agree with you on that.
Yes, I’m against it for a very simple reason: In the 60s they all said we had the right to the difference. And now, suddenly, they want a bourgeois life.

They want to be the type of people who have always despised them.
When I was a child I asked my mother what homosexuality was about and she said—and this was 100 years ago in Germany and she was very open-minded—“It’s like hair color. It’s nothing. Some people are blond and some people have dark hair. It’s not a subject.” This was a very healthy attitude.

// And you have no problem with porn, either.
No. I admire porn.

This is another thing that we have in common.
And I personally only like high-class escorts. I don’t like sleeping with people I really love. I don’t want to sleep with them because sex cannot last, but affection can last forever. I think this is healthy. And for the way the rich live, this is possible. But the other world, I think they need porn. I also think it’s much more difficult to perform in porn than to fake some emotion on the face as an actor.

// I think that you might have Asperger syndrome. Do you know what that is? It’s a kind of autism. It’s like an idiot savant.
That’s exactly what I am. As a child I wanted to be a grown-up. I wanted to know everything—not that I like to talk about it. I hate intellectual conversation with intellectuals because I only care about my opinion, but I like to read very abstract constructions of the mind. It’s very strange.

M-a-g-i-c-a-l

when they found your body
giant x's on your eyes
with your half of the ransom
you bought some sweet, sweet, sweet
sweet sunflowers
and gave them to the night

underneath the star of david
a hundred years behind behind my eyes
and with my half of the ransom
i bought some sweet, sweet, sweet
sweet sunflowers
and gave them to the night

Achtung, Suchtgefahr!

Fast so schön und mindestens genauso entspannend wie Luftpolsterfolie zwischen den Fingern zerplatzen zu lassen: die Kreis-Application von Cesmes.

Saved my day

outside my head i cast a shadow
im not someone whose seen this side of me
but it drifts accross the ground so down i look
and i could spend my time wondering who i was
i could count the times that i have lost or won
i could turn toward you and ask you what you saw
but what do these feelings mean?

come meet me on this path of wonder
take my hand i'd like to share with you
what can we learn when we cant understand?
we could spend our time wondering what could be
we could ask of god to show us where we stand
you could follow me back to where we met
but what have you been dreaming of?

im going to live
but im living far away

im going to die
im dying for a way out

My first summer love

Das erste Sommerkleid des Jahres ist gekauft: Die bezaubernde Diane von Wood Wood. Fehlt nur noch: der Sommer.

PS: halb geschenkt ist ganz gewonnen...

We ♥

When I come home you wont be there any more / And you will tear off your clothes and kiss the floor / When I come home, home, home

When I see land you will conjuror up a storm / And I will tie your hand to the highest mast / When I see land, land, land

And we will hustle hustle hustle to be free / Free from all the Happy thoughts and smiles under the sea

In favour of the Mean, mean, moves / And back doors to the heart from where we / Always, always fall apart

And you will slide on the back seat of my bike / And I will ride you home drunken in the rain /  And you will win again and again

Now its your turn you will tie me to the tree / And you will sing and sing forever you and me / But in the dark you wonder what I see

Be my lover
