Electric Six - Gay Bar 2003

Electric Six is an American rockband formed in Detroit in 1996. They are known for combining elements of rock, disco, garage rock, metal, new wave, and punk rock. Since achieving widespread recognition in 2003 with the singles "Danger! High Voltage" and "Gay Bar", they have released 20 studio albums, two rarities albums, one live album and one live DVD. "Gay Bar" was written by band member Tyler Spencer, under the pseudonym Dick Valentine, and it was released on June 2, 2003 as the second single from their debut studio album, Fire. While both the song and music video received significant airplay, lyrics mentioning war were edited due to their possibly offensive nature, since the song made its air debut at the start of the Iraq War. A radio version in Japan exists in which the same lyrics are replaced with "let's do an edit, do a radio edit".

The song was nominated for the Kerrang! Award for Best Single. It also won Video of the Year award (2003) from both Kerrang and Q magazine. The band recorded "Gay Bar Part Two", a sequel to this song, for their album Flashy. The song was less of a direct sequel, opting instead to satirise their annoyance caused by people demanding a follow-up song as well as troubles with their previous record label demanding that they record "another Gay Bar".

"Gay Bar" received a total of 81,1% yes votes!

(reply to the kroger & walmart chicken fettucine alfredo listeria outbreak)

hey holy shit. the sound I made when I read this. this is exactly why the chicken fettucine recall is so scary, it is such a huge comfort food and a bunch of folks eat it while pregnant. I am so fucking glad my post found you and that you got medical attention right away.

yours is an example of doing exactly the right thing: listeria is especially dangerous while pregnant, and there are antibiotics that can be prescribed for high-risk folks during the early stages of symptoms or even before symptoms begin. and while listeria can take up to 80 days to cause illness, it can also cause issues within hours or days of eating contaminated food.

for you and for everyone else trying to avoid the general news right now, here is a list to help keep up with recalls and foodborne illness outbreaks in the united states since I do not post all of them:

FDA recall list (food, drug, medical device, etc recalls with press announcements, usually bigger food recalls have announcements)

FDA enforcement reports (more recalls go here, but more difficult to navigate than the recall list with announcements)

USDA FSIS recall list (they cover different food than FDA, especially meat. the chicken fettucine alfredo recall was posted here)

NHTSA recall list (vehicles, car seats, tires, and equipment recalls!)

CPSC recall and safety warning list (products! there have been a LOT of recalls of baby stuff recently!)

FDA outbreak investigations (you can see the status of outbreaks as they happen and get investigated, this is often where recalls start)

CDC active investigations of foodborne illness outbreaks (outbreaks can have both an FDA page and a CDC page. they cover different information)

foodsafetynews (news about food safety ONLY! not a government source. mostly focused on the US and canada, but also news around the world. some of what they post involves commentary on the current administration, BUT they post about bigger and more relevant recalls that wind up in the ever-tricky FDA enforcement reports.)

best of luck to you and your baby, and make sure you get plenty of rest!!!!!

I'd love to hear the advice fab gave yeah! Really curious as an artist HAHAHAH

OKIE DOKIEE!! :D this is the text that he sent me ;3

"You're doing a fantastic job! These are great! :) Also, here are a couple of points I try to remember when I do any drawing: In the organic world, there are no lines, only points of contact, light and shadow. Anything you see can be drawn, it's just a matter of looking and understanding. If something doesn't feel right, don't be afraid of fixing or start over because even something done wrong is a step towards doing it right!"

haul from folsom street east fair!! all by slug baby wares

[sophaeros]

anyway i went to folsom street east fair today and everything i saw just made me think I MISS THE STROKES

[sophaeros]

what going to irl bdsm events has really taught me is that online discourse is really truly incredibly inconsequential and stupid. someone was telling me about the abdl munch happening next week there was a booth for it at the fair today, old men in skimpy leather and crossdressers and dykes with their tits out and good natured ribbing about any kink under the sun like it really does not matter how some random person online tries to moralise and grandstand about certain kinks being unacceptable or something the actual people participating in it and finding community and solidarity irl are literally just regular people getting a little silly with it
