Janelle Monae

I’ve been kinda missing Ms. Monae lately so imagine how excited I was to find video of her performing at the 2011 Nobel Peace Prize Concert AND this quote from her:

Archer Hairline!!!

So, you may not know this about me, your not so humble blogger, but I am a huge font nerd. I have been know to spend hours on font sites looking for the perfect font for whatever project I was working on at the time. Until Archer Hairline. That fragment probably made no sense to you, so let me explain.

Song of the Day

It’s Feist remixed by Beck. You just can’t go wrong.

Fucked Up Shit: November-December Edition

1. Florence + The Machine, “No Light, No Light” Video

Yo, Florence, girl, you know I love your music, but this shit is pretty fucked up. I mean you start with blackface, then he’s a voodoo priest? AND THEN he’s the scary black man chasing the white woman down the street. You really could’ve put the song behind a trailer of Birth of a Nation and saved everyone time and money. AND you are saved at the end by a bunch of white people? Jesus.
