brand new (!!!) frankenstein girls will seem strangely sexy by mindless self indulgence, so excuse the quality. it's so brand-spankin'-new that you can see my reflection in the packaging. this album was recorded in the 2000s, and you can tell just by the art by jamie hewlett (who i adore) and the sound they were going for. as much as mindless self indulgence's reputation isn't great because of jimmy urine's crimes, you can't deny that this album is pretty flawless... not in terms of topics, but in terms of visuals and sound. i've always wanted this in my collection so i'm over the moon i finally have it.

If one listened close to the scene in which the Inspector and Emerald first meet the pixies,

one can hear the song ‘Gigantic’ by the American band The Pixies.

blood // sugar // secs // traffic by the gotobeds from 2016, found this in earworm records in york. this is the sort of record that i needed at the time, i remember i was going through a messy breakup when i first listened to this record and it was the sort of thing i needed; screamy indie. the third and fourth tune on side a make me feel bittersweet about that time now.

Lyrics

Levitate the Pentagon, burn the witches from your eyes. You said you swore you saw it rise. Levitate the Pentagon, let the losers tell their side. You said you swore you saw it rise. Pain’s a secret no one keeps. You’re the lie that I believe. Hanging out outside church basements, waiting for meetings to end. Half our friends are in recovery, half our friends are dead. Well, smoking won’t get you sober, and the drugs no longer work. We’ve got coke, but no keys, no car, no home. Levitate the Pentagon, burn the witches from your eyes. You said you swore you saw it rise. Levitate the Pentagon, let the losers tell their side. You said you swore you saw it rise. Now you’re in a strip club in DC at 3 in the afternoon, trying to convince some sad refugee you’re different. But like a self-help book at the STD clinic, that ship has sailed that ship sailed, all the ships have sailed. You’ve always had a Clintonian grasp of truth and beauty. You were born to die in a better world than this one. Your tombstone will read, “I tried, I failed; only God and everyone else can and should judge me.” Levitate the Pentagon, burn the witches from your eyes. You said you swore you saw it rise. Levitate the Pentagon, let the losers tell their side. You said you swore you saw it rise.

I know this happened last year, but Illinois has its first reservation! The Department of the Interior placed 130 acres of land in DeKalb County near Shabbona State Park into trust for the Prairie Band Potawatomi.

!!! That's huge! I had no idea!! Congratulations to be Prairie Band Potawatomi!!!

"Nearly 200 years after Native Americans were forced out of Illinois, the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation has become the first federally recognized tribal nation in the state after a decision from the U.S. Department of the Interior last week.

The move represents the first victory in the tribe’s larger effort to regain the approximately 1,280 acres of its ancestral land in Illinois via legislation in both the General Assembly and Congress.

But the tribe first had to spend $10 million over the last 20 years to repurchase the first 130 acres of the Shab-eh-nay Reservation, located in what is now DeKalb County, that the federal government illegally sold out from under Chief Shab-eh-nay around 1850.

Nearly two centuries later, Prairie Band Chairman Joseph “Zeke” Rupnick – a fourth-great grandson of Chief Shab-eh-nay – signed paperwork on Friday that allows the Department of the Interior to place those 130 acres into a trust, which gives the tribe sovereignty over the land.

Rupnick said he’d heard the story of his ancestral land in Illinois “ever since I was a child” from his grandparents, and said his mother started the push to reclaim the Prairie Band’s land three decades ago when she was the tribe’s chairperson.

“For me to actually get it accomplished and signed, honestly, words couldn't describe the feeling that I had that, you know, when I actually completed that task,” he told Capitol News Illinois on Monday, adding that the credit should be shared with his entire counsel and tribal membership more broadly. “And now the real work begins.”"
