Kandii Update
August 23rd, 2010We did it! We made all these kandii cuffs! Go to kandipatterns.com or youtube (duh :p ) for tutorials if you’re down to make some. Tip: tighten the elastic string every time you put a bead on. You don’t have to keep it super tightened the whole time, just make sure to tug at it. If you don’t it can get real crooked and fat and the string will show through. Not so cool.

Kandi!!!
August 19th, 2010Omg. Margot has gotten me into making Kandi bracelets. We found the most awesome website, kandipatterns.com, probably the most awesome website ever besides this one
They have so many patterns and tutorials.


Check out all these amazing bracelets!
Don’t mind her cat. That’s just her cat. So we’re going to watch Veronica Mars right now and make PC Land cuffs with windows logos or something gay like that. Yes! So many addictions now.

Minerals, Gems and Butterflies @ the Natural History Museum
August 3rd, 2010Every first Tuesday of the month is free at the Natural History Museum. We decided to go after hearing about Pavilion of Wings, a live butterfly exhibit that runs until September 6th. Romance was definitely in the air – we saw butterflies 69′ing on a leaf and another pair doing it in midair! In front of children!

Seo Taiji & Boys
July 12th, 2010In the late 80s, it was every god-fearing, mall-going, korean girl’s fantasy to experience her first romance with this man:

vbs (vacation bible school) was only tolerable because i got to watch my friends fight over every circle-glasses-wearing boy they could find. who is this man whose beautiful music inspired a generation of women to be attracted to circle glasses? the answer is seo taiji aka korea “culture leader”.
watch this video and experience for yourself a strange, sudden desire to date stylish, circle-glasses-wearing korean man. you may recognize the song from a little movie called “3 Ninjas”.

Alpha Centauri Alien Models
July 4th, 2010Pegasus Hobbies made this really amazing model kit of a pair of Alpha Centauri Alien models. These models can be built different ways i chose both the open hatch and closed hatch way of building.
I’m a little confused because these aliens I think areĀ representing the Red Dwarf star that the binary star system Alpha Centauri is often confused with. So these aliens are red and very very small. However, Alpha Centaurians are according to Babylon 5, a very reputable source, are humanoids they looking nothing at all like anything from the gray family. But whatever! the important thing is that I kicked ass making these it took about 2 hours to get it together and fully painted.

Drag!
June 22nd, 2010RuPaul’s Drag Race is one of the best tv shows I’ve ever seen. If you haven’t seen it yet, you can watch all the episodes online at Logo. I’d start with season 2. If you’re from Riverside, you might recognize some of the show’s stars, Tammie Brown, Raven and Morgan McMichaels. Our very own Senior Editor, Margot, grew up watching Raven’s amazing Drag Show “Snatch” at Club Menagerie, which you can still catch every Thursday night at 11pm. It’s the perfect double-date night! We went with Bobby and Erik, who took all the photos below. Thanks Erik!!
An amazing Whitney impersonation by Mayhem! One of my most cherished memories of all time.

Stock Photography Art Project
June 8th, 2010By Naomi Elizabeth
May 25 2010
One day last week I was reading about stock photographs and I became suddenly obsessed with the idea of taking them myself. Prior to that day I had never thought even once about the subject. Primarily because, as we all know, stock photos are disturbing, oppressive, and slightly nauseating. It was this element of filth itself that drew me to the idea.
