So there's this girl i've been talking to for about a month now and i've grown interested in her. She's thoughtful and likes Aphex Twin. I don't know her too well but do you think it would be a good idea to ask her out for a Valentines Day date? Is it too soon? Would she think im desperate if im blatantly using valentines day as an excuse to ask her out? Any input is helpful

A real pimp

I was looking for photos of pimp clothing for a video game project and stumbled across this dude's myspace. I ended up looking through much of his photo album, found it interesting because - - dude is clearly a real life pimp - most of his girls are bbw - in some pics he's posed with tupac or a tupac look-alike (not sure which, but I found his weird wax museum poses to be strange). I dunno, maybe this is boring, but I found it intriguing. Some is mildly nsfwattm, but it doesn't contain any real nudity http://www.myspace.com/pimpdadddy/photos

From Feb. 13 to 15, the Romans celebrated the feast of Lupercalia. The men sacrificed a goat and a dog, then whipped women with the hides of the animals they had just slain.The Roman romantics "were drunk. They were naked," says Noel Lenski, a historian at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Young women would actually line up for the men to hit them, Lenski says. They believed this would make them fertile.The brutal fete included a matchmaking lottery, in which young men drew the names of women from a jar. The couple would then be, um, coupled up for the duration of the festival – or longer, if the match was right.The ancient Romans may also be responsible for the name…

Kind of a blog post. Whatever! OK I don't know to what degree the word "serious" in the title can be taken as a joke, "ha ha," or not, but here goes: There is a girl in one of the classes I'm taking who I am at least slightly interested in. I am aware of her. If I am honest with myself, I like her and am interested in knowing more about her, but I am also aware that I can't seem to love another. It's a fucking learning experience for everyone (love), no? Something you learn to do, that takes work? Not everything needs so much pressure at the start (acceptance, openness, etc)? No shit, right... I noticed that I think maybe she liked me, or found me interesting or w…

Rolled a spliff, got high by myself for the first time, to experience the new autechre even more intensely. Instead, I got distracted by this movie I am now watching: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114885/ ... Anyways, just found a half eaten cup of yoghurt in the fridge and mixed some instant chocolate drink powder in it. It's really good. Anyone tried this?

i'm messing about with coding graphical user interfaces for audio software, VSTs in particular, and i'm noticing that most of the programming tools for creating interfaces are geared to realism and emulation of old hardware gear: they provide you with code and templates for 3D-rendered knobs with colored caps, sliders that look like hardware sliders out of an analog mixer, clumsy big "jog wheels". basically all relics from when analog gear had no better means of control than the cheap and plentiful knob/slider/swiitch. imo, in software most of these are just a waste of space. turning a virtual knob is usually not the efficient way to change a parameter value. it'…

He made sort of conceptual information art, they would often show the links between government and organisations, they were big piece using ovals/boxes containing text with lines showing the links. He committed suicide in the early 1980's. Similar aesthetic to Lawrence Weiner. Does this ring any bells for anyone? Going mad here.

So apologies if this has already been posted, but it's been confirmed that alongside the new episodes in the Star Wars series, there' going to be standalone movies released as well. Could be pretty cool if done properly (a Boba Fett movie would be especially good). Anyway, here's the 411 from Empire: http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=36420
