I think I saw someone do this on Feministing. And I dug it. You hop on your iTunes and pick 18 completely random songs. Once, a boy left his iPod at my house. I looked through it. I felt like I had read his diary, scrolling through his playlists and songs and artists and Most Recently Played. Music- How Personal. I digress…this isn’t meant to be personal, this is meant to be fun!

Ok. Done. Methinks you would never want to actually make a CD out of that. It would be quite disjointed.

this entire CD is just as amazing as her last one. and even though i’ve had it for a little while, this song keeps getting stuck in my head. not in a 70s-disco-song way, but in the way that it pops up in my mind by surprise and i’m glad every time.

the Interdisciplinary Research Center on Family Violence and Violence Against Women was looking to do a study on the effects of pornography on sexuality. for the control group, naturally the researchers needed a group of men in their 20s who had never watched or seen porn before. and, as you’ve doubtless figured out, they found that there are none. at least, not in North America. you can find a little more about the story here.
