2010 guys! It’s been a month! Can you believe it? I’m sure you can!

I have have been sick with a horrible hacking cough so hence small hiatus from this here personal blog. Be back when I’m back on my game.

But I saw this today and ya’ll just need to know about it. I been watching this ‘like a hawk in the sky, a bird of prey’ aka on repeat.

His music has strong powers. First I was like, “hey look a goofy looking white dude” but by the end of the video I was kinda in <3. Maybe for 2010 I should get married to this guy.

Know what’s awesome? When you stumble across that totally priceless vlog that is super cool and only has a couple hundred views if that. It’s like finding that little gem of self expression catapulting all sorts of feelings into space just waiting for people to listen.

Well, here’s one and it’s worth a watch. This guy has some emoting to do about being a femme top. PREACH, SISTAH! AND DO IT IN SONG!

Femme tops want ur sex!!!!

Remember when Madonna made a video called Truth or Dare and performed “Oh Father”?

Did you know that stereotype that gay men all suffer from horrible relationships with their fathers? I didn’t think it was true. But then YouTube proved me wrong. Apparently it’s a huge deal to post your one’s own rendition of “Oh Father” online if you’re a gay man. I don’t 100% understand it. If I was going to cover a song and post it on YouTube, I would cover something more like “Banana Phone”, which is a little more my pace.

But back on topic, “Oh Father” has been trending really hard apparently, and I’ve just been oblivious. Some of the best below:

Midwestern emo goth gay version:

Weird homemade movie about child molestation and abuse:

Indie gay:

If you had to cover a song and post it to YouTube, what would it be?

So this year I am too broke to go to lazy bear. This is ok partially because of the existence of Bears I’m Jealous Of, which I already saw a picture from one of the bars in Guerneville packed with large and in charge men. Love living vicariously!

But this time off, being broke a little too broke to fly away on vacation, has given me time to think. With all this gay marriage going around, we need to remember that the purpose of gay marriage is really to legitimize families. This includes your legitimizing your adopted kids, and we need to be responsible about naming them if we’re going to have them. I’ve been doing a bit of thinking about the whole process of pairing up, whether or not I want kids, and whether or not I would ever want kids enough to be a single father if I start to get old and still am not gay married. Also, in my refusal to blog about or see Bruno (because it looks stupid and boring, not because of GLAAD’s statement), I really needed a topic for this week.

I had a conversation last night with Erin of The Steeez and The Nudes last night about all the awesome names I could give my adopted baby.

Erin: I HAVE TO TELL YOU SOMETHING

Seriously though, besides the name, did you guys notice that René Descartes HAD A FETISH FOR CROSS EYED WOMEN? These sorts of bites of trivia are what I love for.

Back on topic — What would you name your gay adopted baby?

WTF Marlon?!?!?! WTF!!!! Why did you send me this?!?!?!?!

However, the existence of this video did force me to ask a very important question. How is performance art changing with the advent of the internet? Is this just a tween crying out for attention?

OR

Could this be faked to make her look more “rolly polly” as the video titles it? I mean, somebody did make a fake, horrifying dildo video (NSFW!!!)… Is she making an important statement about body dysmorphia like Jenny Saville? Is this just the way that artists are transforming their work to keep up with current technology and social media?

Jenny Saville. Closed Contact #10, 1996.

It’s just so hard to believe in anything since the Internet started, guys.So I leave it up to you, give your response in this poll.

So me and some friends, like.. a year ago back when I had hair and hipster glasses, made a music video to “Careless Whisper.” I only sing George Michael and Elton John songs when I go to karaoke and this is one of my standards. This is what happened when we made a video inspired by my karaoke antics:

I am kind of dying… I’m so happy it finally got edited. But it’s ridiculous and I forgot what I looked like back when I had hair and no tattoos… so it’s.. bittersweet?

Hi guys. Meet my new boyfriend. He’s so dreamy and so good at… physics (if you get my drift).

Oh George Ramirez! You’re MY American idol! (Sigh)

So I was laid up most of the weekend in bed trying to get over my cold. Actually most of the evenings last week as well. So sorry if I sent any bizarre emails to anyone, I was really bored and on cough syrup. Besides that the only thing I really accomplished was watching a ton of TV online with my computer, rediscovering my love of a classic teen series The O.C. It’s become enough of an obsession where I’ve started referring to my O.C. time as “Hangin’ with Marissa Cooper” or “Hangin’ with the Coop,” not to be confused with the TGIF hit Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper. (starring Raven Symoné! Love her so much when she rides  a segway.)

And there are plenty of reasons I now love The O.C. and I think everyone should revisit 2005 or whenever this show was highly blogged about. Read More!

Happy Obama week, ya’ll. Wasn’t it so great that when Barack won? I totally cried during his speech when he mentioned the 106 year old woman. I kind of imagined what the world will look like when I am 307 years old (medication advances will have stopped us from dying) and I got to see all the great advances in the world in gay rights, such as gays and straights finally using the same legal entity to form families (what we now call marriage) and the first gay president. Should I start politically aligning as a homo-supremacist?

Point is, I was listening to Guided By Voices‘ Bee Thousand the other day and really felt like maybe Robert Pollard was predicting the future. Normally I’d abhor posting song lyrics on a site, but I’m making an exception for myself because I think Guided By Voices may be the best ever (realize when you read this that I also fetishize low-fi production), and I don’t understand why the world doesn’t agree. Normally I think that posting song lyrics is for teenagers who have livejournals and check out people on Make Out Club back when it was basically a weird message board in 1998, a time when the Internet was young and we didn’t know better. You might as well consider this entry living at gmsc.livejournal.com.

After the jump, lyrics to the song that maybe predicted our current location in history, “Echoes Myron.” Read More!

Hey, guys, stop asking this very gay fellow if he’s actually gay. It’s so not cool. This problem is so serious, he even made a vlog:

Really? In my world camo hats and beards and pretty homosexual. Who are these strangers IMing him all the time asking if he’s really gay? Because all you crazy strangers with no gaydar whatsoever need to stop this nonsense.
