The Encouragement Project [Part 2]

•January 20, 2009 • Leave a Comment

The one I made - YAY!

“Part Two is where all of you, my dear artistic readers, come in!

You know all of these messages of encouragement floating about [you should— there are over 400!]? Pick one [yes, you!]. It doesn’t have to be your own message. Pick anyone’s message. And draw it. Paint it. Collage it. Art it. Do it. Whatever you do, however you do, just do. And you have thirty days to “do.” And then?

Then you send it to me at erin[AT]designformankind[DOT]com with the subject line “Free Encouragement.” Your entry [4×6 dimensions, please!] will be sifted through and loved and canoodled and may possibly be chosen to be part of a VERY special and inspiring postcard pack for you to send MORE encouragement into the world. See how it works? It’s one big food chain of niceness!

Be very excited. And get to work. Don’t worry if you choose the same message as others— there are plenty to go around, and duplicates are just fine! The more, the merrier. Comment below to declare your participation, tell your friends, and go forth— be inspired!

Remember: deadline is FEBRUARY 1ST. Don’t be late. 😉
[special thanks to Jeff at Boooooooom, who is basically the BEST collabo partner EVER!]”

Childbirth Orgasms: ‘Best-Kept Secret’ [Documentary]

•January 17, 2009 • Leave a Comment

Labor Orgasms Are ‘Basic Science’

To prove that it is possible to have pleasure in childbirth, Pascali-Bonaro made a documentary called “Orgasmic Birth.”

Tamra and Simon Larter of suburban New Jersey were one of the couples that allowed Pascali-Bonaro to film their most intimate moments of labor. For their second child, the Larters wanted a natural birth with midwives at their home. They spent part of Tamra Larter’s labor kissing and caressing.

Jaieemia YouTube Video Response [F]

•January 5, 2009 • Leave a Comment

One YouTube commenter brought something to my attention:

“Could you please do something about the comments from Rockerje1975? I find it very offensive him using the N word in a comment left for “Who’s Johnny” video. Thanks.”

Rockerje1975 (has a bit of a train fetish going on) Comments:

“What is this for fucking shittness? Why didn’t nobody killed those fucking nigger? All the people who love this song are real stupids!!! Go to school and learn what music is!!

So you see what for stupid criminal he is!! He could not sing he could not make good music, he could not behave in community. So let rotten him in prison, death-row is much better for him! So throw away all this stupid from this world and world will be a much better place!!

Look, someone has placed a very good ans smart remark. I couldn’t say it mucgh better. This is the chance for all the people to better his taste for music! Now, do something with it, before you will go down due your own lack of good music!”

My Response:

Dear Rockerje1975

Music is self-expressionism; in this case, I guess it’s fair to say that music can also be promotional and for its time of release [80’s], would have been completely acceptable, and popular. But by today’s standards I think what people enjoy about this song, has more to do with nostalgia than contemporary composition. [Of course there are people out there like me that would contest] [We are talking about 80’s music after all]

But whatever your tastes in music may be; to put down an artist, melody, sound; to stereotype and/or cast a negative opinion about a time/place/theme/person that you have no personal knowledge about is just ignorant and more often than not, the ugliest trait a person can express.

You either like it or don’t, but please don’t come in here dictating your views like you know what’s best for the human race. You clearly don’t know what’s best for yourself.

Say what you want and see what happens.

On behalf of my thoughtful viewers – go suck a fuck you boorish arsehole.

Eat words dick-wad. I haven’t blocked or reported him and I don’t think I will, even if he does persist. Not worth the effort. What do you think about that?

9 Year Old Girl Becomes the Youngest Microsoft Certified Professional

•December 30, 2008 • Leave a Comment

Today’s crushing blow to our self confidence comes to us from rural Tamil Nadu in India, where Lavinashree, a 9 year old girl has become the youngest person to ever pass a Microsoft Certified Professional examination.

By achieving this feat, she broke the record held by Arfa Karim, a ten-year-old Pakistani girl.

Naturally, this isn’t the first time the girl has been in the spotlight for her talents. Thanks to her extraordinary memory, she has been breaking records since she was three—an age when most of us were concerned with toys and pooping our pants:
