Sewing

Tomorrow my lovely man and I have decided to have a productive evening of making delicious food followed by eating said food, followed by sewing and fixing up some clothing. This is good because I a) need the motivation to get some of my projects going, and b) because I like feeling productive, and if I can do it alongside someone so wonderful it is a pleasurable bonus.

All together, I feel rather productive regardless. Today I printed off $60 worth of photos from 2004 until now. Mostly of traveling adventures, but also some photographic evidence of my having a university life. Printing these photos was followed by beginning (finally) my travel scrap book. I don't have too much to complete now, it's just a matter of sitting down and doing it...kinda like doing my sewing projects.

ANYWAY, my sewing goals are:

zanita

Miss D you make my heart go pitter patter.

I realize that I tend to picture post mostly naked women...and it's not that I don't appreciate the male body, because I most certainly do. But women are just so amazing. Honestly.

cameraaaa

Today I bought myself a new camera! This is exciting because a) this is a long overdue purchase, and b) it ended up being 20 bones less then what it was advertised at! WIN!

Now I will potentially be adding more pictures of life in the land of Robyn, but I suppose ultimately that depends on how busy I get.

PS: My co-op employers have asked that I stay for the summer. Imma gonna do it.

Mainstream

We are overwhelmed by sexual images in commercials, art, and pornography, and you might think that the increasing number of images would indicate that we’re moving away from puritanism and towards more positive attitudes towards sex. But in reality, the great mass of those images in all three realms tell us one thing: ‘Sex feels good, but it’s not for you. You’re too fat, too skinny, too old, too poor, your tits or cock aren’t big enough, you don’t stay hard long enough. Sex is for the elite.’

LOVE

Pretty sure I'm a fan of almost all of the alternate covers done for Love magazine. Especially Lara and Daria's:

sex-bots

Soon people will no longer have to interact with one another in order to find an intimate partner. Fuck that, why go through all the awkward interactions when you can just go out and buy a $7000 sex-bot?

Also: how many of you out there think there is a male sex-bot on the market? I suggest you read the Globe and Mail's article Romancing the Robot for an idea on the matter. And by idea, I mean one guy's suggestion that by 2050 men and women will be jumping at the idea of having sex with a robot.

When did sex with a human being become unappealing or...less appealing??

AMAZING FILM.

I would recommend everyone go see it.

The turbulent relationship between a mother and a son unfolds with a compelling combination of savage fury and melting affection in I Killed My Mother. A stunning, semi-autobiographical tour de force from writer/director/producer/performer Xavier Dolan, it is a film with the sting of shrewdly observed truth. (source)
