Keep Calm and Pretend it’s Not Monday

So it’s not Wednesday. It feels like it: I’ve already blown through half my work hours allowed for the week at the Daily Dot and a fat lot of good it did me so it’s time for a little break.

Welcome to Honorary Hump Day.

Here’s a great video from our old friend Mark Day, who made a lightning visit to Burning Man (not that we’re jellus) and is now looking more Californian than we’ve ever seen him. Congratulations, you’ve made a nearly full recovery from your Hebridean upbringing. Stay till the end for bonus AWWWWWW.

Why the nose? Well, we’re glad you asked.

Well, it had to happen. Everybody’s favorite/least favorite Anon/talking head/fameball Barrett Brown once again drew the attention of law enforcement. Being a very 21st Century character, he was half-naked, seemingly baked, and on video when it all went down.

Here is that video.

Full report will be up tomorrow on the Daily Dot. You’re welcome.

EDIT: it’s up now. Barrett Brown Anonymous hacker, arested.

Friday WORK THROUGH THE PAIN Playlist

TGIF motherfuckers

You know those times when it’s the last day of a long week and you stay up all night to get your work done for the editor who told you to have it done and then he isn’t even at work today and you’re still awake from yesterday but it’s fine, really, it’s fine.

Because you have this music to keep you going.

Gwen Stefani, Queen, Beastie Boys, New Kids on the Block, Joan Jett, Run DMC, Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, Nirvana and Offspring.
Of course.

Adeleney!

Suave, sophisticated, surgically preserved Gloria Trevi

Young, crazy Gloria Trevi, headbutting the camera, knocking the set over, and humping her way across the floor with a hand in her “pocket”.

Christina Aguilera, who may be an obnoxious person but who can sing like an angel, specifically Michael, because Michael fucking kicks ass.

P!nk, of course. God, I’ve got to get back into boxing.

House of Pain, the Beatles, Joan Jett, Cypress Hill, Rage Against the Machine

Soul Side In covering Pat Benatar. The video is tawdry, the cover is awesome.

If this playlist doesn’t get or keep you going, I’m afraid there’s some bad news: you’re clinically dead.

TGIF Duet: Kate Bush and Rowan Atkinson

Ladies and gentlemen, this is possibly Kate Bush‘s finest performance. As for Atkinson, he gives Bobby Bittman a run for his money, and Tom Jones better hang on to those panties while he can. This man is a clear contender for the tawdry crown of lounge lizardom.

There’s only one appropriate reaction to this, and Hillary Clinton knows what it is.
