Literacy’s for Losers (Kanye West)

It’s true.

It might be their lack of pictures or their over all wordiness but books just aren’t doing it for Mr. West.

Rapper Kanye West does not read books or respect them but nevertheless he has written one that he would like you to buy and read.

Whether or not this includes scratch’n’sniffs, pop-ups, or choose your own adventures has yet to be confirmed; however, his book’s called “Thank You And You’re Welcome,” and includes:

an entertaining volume of ‘Kanye-isms’–the creative, humorous, and insightful philosophies and anecdotes used in creating his path to success. It captures the same wit, playful irony, and piercing insight found abundant in his lyrics.

BTW, this is a picture of Kanye West if he was Jesus…that’s all I have to say about that.

This is Boston, We’re Bottoms (Sex-iology)

Well, well, not only does our weather fuck with us but so does everyone else.

After long days at work involving trying not to throw up on the Green Line, dodging tourists and local crazies at Park Street, and finally trying to strategically jaywalk across Mass. Ave., we come home lay on our backs, let it happen, and maybe fall asleep.

This all according to a recent Craigslist survey by Gay blog, theSword.

Boston’s rough but let’s try to be more proactive where it counts: in bed. (At least we “better” than Houston.)

Health & Black Dice in Medford!

Is anyone there? Is anyone still reading? Well, for those who have hung on, JC&L is still (sort of) going strong.

This summer going to be pretty steady in music for those in the Boston area. The next great show will be in none other than Medford, MA, with one of the greatest line-ups I’ve seen in a while–Black Dice, Health, and Awesome Color.

The show’s scheduled for Monday, June 15th, at Medford’s Outside the Lines Studio at 7pm with only a $12 donation.

Health is also releasing a new album due in September, GET COLOR. The album art’s displayed but for the full track listing read more after the jump! ZING!

NOTE: according to Brooklyn Vegan Health and Awesome Color are scheduled to make an appearance but according to OLS only Black Dice, Many Mansions, Alec K. Redfearn and the Seizures, and Eat Cloud are playing.

Either way it should be pretty boss.
