Ugh, seriously

Dear Wordpress: Please get better, more polished themes for your free accounts. Every time I try to post something, I get sidetracked seeing font choices that just don’t click, elements out of alignment.

Dear Twitter: Please stop being over-capacity all the time. It erodes what little love I still feel for you.

Dear Universe: I want a mixtape. MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Calvin: You can't just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.

Hobbes: What mood is that?

Calvin: Last-minute panic.

Yes. Yes. Oh, yes. whytheyrehot: Why He’s Hot {REDUX}: No one can epitomize the grandpa era 1960’s style better in a sharp suit and slicked hair, with a cigarette in one hand and bourbon on the other. He IS the sexiest man on primetime television… even the grannies are rockin’ their granny panties of approval. There is a tacit intrigue ensconced in those smoldering olive eyes, coupled with a calm demeanor and gentlemanly charm in or out of persona. He’s a pleasurable guy who knows your desires, hinting a little and holding the rest back, leaving you with an unquenchable thirst for more… He’s paid his dues and now reaps the rewards, but he isn’t letting the prestige muddle his head. A blend of invincibility and vulnerability, whether decked as clean-shaven cover debonair or scruffed in a down to earth casual. He inflects his candor with modesty and self-awareness, plus a manic sense of humor (and he digs math, lit & science!) which makes him all the more adorkable. He can cook! What with a decade’s worth of waiting tables wouldn’t he pick up a thing or two in gastropornic satisfaction? That must also explain the delectable meat-and-muscles package. He’s Jon Hamm. As in Jonathan Daniel Hamm — NOT John Ham or well, Sergio the Sax Symbol as you secretly lust him to be. Brusque, mysterious, brooding, romantic, dirty, funny, sexy. Heck, he can be James Bond and make mad love on my Vespa anytime. {submission}

Yes. Yes. Oh, yes.

Why He’s Hot {REDUX}:

  1. No one can epitomize the grandpa era 1960’s style better in a sharp suit and slicked hair, with a cigarette in one hand and bourbon on the other. He IS the sexiest man on primetime television… even the grannies are rockin’ their granny panties of approval.
  2. There is a tacit intrigue ensconced in those smoldering olive eyes, coupled with a calm demeanor and gentlemanly charm in or out of persona. He’s a pleasurable guy who knows your desires, hinting a little and holding the rest back, leaving you with an unquenchable thirst for more…
  3. He’s paid his dues and now reaps the rewards, but he isn’t letting the prestige muddle his head. A blend of invincibility and vulnerability, whether decked as clean-shaven cover debonair or scruffed in a down to earth casual. He inflects his candor with modesty and self-awareness, plus a manic sense of humor (and he digs math, lit & science!) which makes him all the more adorkable.
  4. He can cook! What with a decade’s worth of waiting tables wouldn’t he pick up a thing or two in gastropornic satisfaction? That must also explain the delectable meat-and-muscles package.
  5. He’s Jon Hamm. As in Jonathan Daniel Hamm — NOT John Ham or well, Sergio the Sax Symbol as you secretly lust him to be. Brusque, mysterious, brooding, romantic, dirty, funny, sexy. Heck, he can be James Bond and make mad love on my Vespa anytime.

Yes, that is Christian Bale in Mary, Mother of Jesus (1999) - certainly not the first, nor the last, in a line of smokin’ hot Sons of God.

…While couples who marry for love are less ‘in love’ with each passing year, one study found that those in arranged marriages grow steadily more in love as the years progress—because their expectations, say researchers, are a whole lot lower.

As it happened, she bumped into young DiCaprio recently, who was very keen to hear about the production of Quills. ‘He asked, ’ You didn’t love Joaquin more than me, did you? Don’t you ever love an actor more than you love me.’ I said, ‘How do you know I even liked you?’ He replied, ‘Fuck off. You loved me!’ ’ Kate Winslet loves a lot of things: blackberries, Harvey Keitels remedial joke-telling and pretzels all leap to mind. And yes, Leo DiCaprio, she loves you, too.

Thank you, Keanu

He’s not dead, in case you’re wondering. But he seems to be sad about something and the internet knows just how to cheer him up. Yay Keanu!

Parasite single (パラサイトシングル, parasaito shinguru)

A Japanese term for a single person who lives with their parents until their late twenties or early thirties in order to enjoy a carefree and comfortable life. In English, the expression “sponge” or “basement dweller” may sometimes be used. [Wikipedia]

(I think I prefer “sponge.”)
