Charlotte Gainsbourg; parfait…
Oui.

I remember just spending hours looking out my window at the grass, this little fake-ass lawn you got. Sometimes, I’ll have recurring dreams about the projects, just staring out that window. I believe the projects were a social experiment; we were laboratory rats stacked on top of each other, and people just knew, inherently, that there was something wrong. There’s not a lot of regard for the property by the residents. Everything about it is just priming you to be institutionalized as an adult — the colors on the walls, the acoustics. My window didn’t even open up; you had to pull and push it out sideways to get some bullshit circular air going.
Very early, I was like, we’re here because we don’t have any money. The racial aspect hadn’t even crossed my mind. I remember being seven years old and looking out that window, thinking, “I’m gonna make some money.” Because we were good people. It’d be different if we were creeps. But even creeps deserve to live someplace halfway decent.

Not NYE. Pretty excited about this. Maybe more so than actual NYE. Erol! Aeroplane!
Another fine party for the festive season.

This is where I’ll be on NYE (after playing records at Keston Lodge first) with milkbarnick, handsup-thumbsdown (got your ticket yet?) and a few other fine people. Yes yes y’all.

One of my favourite albums, period. I listen to this in every new city I visit.
Looks like DWADE pulled a Scottie on Varejaeo tonight. Topic of Discussion: Could this dunk possibly be the most menacing “facial” ever in the history of the NBA? (Pippen on Ewing, not Wade over Varejao)

Yo Milkbar Nick, didn’t you used to own this card back in the day? Always Upper Deck, never Fleer.
