This Wednesday is International Sex Worker Rights Day. There’s an event happening in New York and other stuff happening around the world.
The GayVN Awards are happening after all this year.
The New York Times refuses to retract errors in the continuing stupidness surrounding fake hooker Hannah Giles and fake pinp James O’Keefe, the pair that made those stupid ACORN videos. Apparently, in an article about O’Keefe’s subsequent arrest for wiretapping, the Times reported that he “made his biggest national splash last year when he dressed up as a pimp and trained his secret camera on counselors with the liberal community group Acorn.” When questioned, The Times looked at the article again and decided that a retraction wasn’t necessary: “The story says O’Keefe dressed up as a pimp and trained his hidden camera on Acorn counselors. It does not say he did those two things at the same time.”
Thinking about the popularity of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” in all its many incarnations, I can’t help wishing it were a different Cohen song that was played at every important occasion. Imagine living in a world where kd lang would sing “Dance Me To The End Of Love” at the Olympics. (Now imagine Nelly Furtado doing the girl parts.)
I’m waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay behind with catching up on fall fashions, but Tim Hamilton’s Paris show (which was, what, five weeks ago now?) is full of items I’m completely coveting.
Is that stupid and ubiquitous Like button that’s attached to everyone’s Facebook updates/Twitter statuses/Tumblr posts/Google Reader streams actually making people nicer? Maybe, but only because people want something out of you. (Or is the writer of that article just living in Happy Irrelevence World?)
Maryland eighth-grader refuses to say the pledge of allegiance and the cops are called to escort her away? Hmmm….
“This year’s Oscar nominations are a parade of propaganda and stereotypes.“ While I disagree with the idea that it’s insulting for Kathryn Bigelow to be nominated for “a typically violent all-male war movie,” I think there are probably some good points here…
Finally, why technology innovation isn’t always a good thing (which I’ve been saying my whole life…) and why Ommwriter is superior to Microsoft Word.

Entering the Danish top 40 this week at #38 is Peter Belli’s “Ulven Peter,” a Danish reworking of Sam The Sham and the Pharaohs’ classic “Little Red Riding Hood.”
Again, I don’t know why, although from the Youtube comments it seems to have something to do with that country’s version of Paradise Hotel, the reality show where people all had to stay in a hotel and act slutty together. It’s apparently still on there.

For reasons I don’t actually know, the French singles chart has been inundated by late-sixties psychedelia this week. A third of the entries on this week’s top 100 come from between 1967 and 1970. At #49 on the list is Serge Gainsbourg’s Le Pacha. That’s the name of a trippy jewel heist movie he scored in 1967; it’s also where his classic “Requiem pour un con” comes from. (I haven’t seen this film, and actually didn’t know it existed until ten minutes ago. But holy cow does it look good.)
Since the French singles charts are normally a terrible mix of boring house music and songs sung by children, I consider this an improvement, though one I don’t understand. Also, my French has deteriorated to the point where I don’t think scouring the internet will help much.
Some other new/old entries after the jump:

I’ve decided to sell out and start putting ads on Naked Pictures Of Your Dad.
It’s a fast and easy way to promote your business/website/band/other thing while also supporting your favorite dickblogger. I’ve never put ads on any of my blogs before, mainly because I don’t want my personal blogging to ever feel like a job, but desperate times call for desperate measures and this is something that I think could be mutually beneficial and maybe even sort of fun:

Because I’m not always up to date with house music, I might be a little tardy to the Azari & III party. The Canadian duo’s “Hungry For The Power” video has been making waves on the internet since around New Year’s, though I only heard of it for the first time last weekend. I’m no expert on these things, but to me the song sounds a little bit like Egyptian Lover duetting with Rockwell, with the added bonus of nice keyboard line showing up at aboutj 1:53.

The fifty to sixty of you who come here every week looking for naked pictures of Joe Rogan* will probably be excited about this video, which shows the former NewsRadio electrician/hunky slampiece hanging out all naked in a locker room. I’m in an office with other people right now (!!) so I’ve only watched this with the sound off. But Gawker says something about pig noises?
(*Seriously, I get more traffic from Joe Rogan searches than anything else these days. So sad and yet so true.)
