Of course the night before the show i mixed 4 doses and a bottle of henny and never really went to bed so...

I will go to Iran in one month's time. Getting curious.

I'm back now from the film shoot. It was exhausting but fun. Make-Up wise they had this kind of Dia De Los Muertos/skull-paint thing going on. A bit different from what I initially expected but nice overall. Had to hold up ribbons a lot and stare into the eyes of my assigned partner for a long period of time. Got a bit tedious after several minutes of doing the same take again and again. But the production design looked pretty nice and the lighting was good. They included a rather traditional rendition of the song in the film.

oh man. i'd be freaked out worrying about not doing anything that might get me arrested. i'm terrified of the ayatollahs. Quote:
yes, being an extra is exhaustingly dull work, but that's how sausages get made. still, can sometimes be a party. i listened to the song yesterday on youtube-- a small man with very short arms sang it-- it was great |
so I got tired of this guy messaging me and flat out said I was a lesbian in hopes he'd let me be... bad idea

tell him to calm the fuck down and fuck the fuck off

hey, dude, this is such a stereotypical answer. don't get me wrong, but do some reading and get some information and you'll be surprised. My brother was in Iran several times now and he told me it's definitely the safest and most welcoming country that he's ever been to. (and he's been to A LOT of countries, as well as myself). Common Iranians hate the picture of their country that the western media has been portraiting for a couple of decades, and they do their best to make it up to the tourists by being as generous as possible. Hence, it's not an uncommon thing that you're approached by a total stranger who invites you to come and have a dinner with him and his family, or just gives you a free tour of his city, just because he likes you and wants to practice his English. And as for "getting arrested", as long as you stick to some rules that are taken seriously there (no alcohol, men shouldn't wear shorts, women should wear a scarf on their head), you're totally safe. |

i'm not really talking about the hospitality of the iranian people, or their amazing culture which is thousands of years old, but rather about the theocratic police state under which they're forced to live. of course i'm aware that mine is a narrow and limited perspective, having never been there, but funny enough this is not informed by "western media" but rather by my appreciation for iranian film and to a lesser extent some literature. true, some of it is made/written by exiles, but either way--it's always the most depressing shit to see these people go around their lives under the oppression of the bearded thugs and a tortuous judicial system. yes, i'm also aware that looking at the united states through its films will give you the impression that everyone here is a serial killer. pretty close... anyway, best wishes with your trip and i'm sure there will be plenty to enjoy. i'd still be terrified to go to iran for myself, as it seems most incompatible with my person. i'm sure i wouldn't fail to get arrested for something. |

lololol stupid men thinking lesbianism is something invented for their pleasure. is he creepy/dangerous or just a pest? if he's only a pest, just tell him the truth-- "i'm not a lesbian, i just lied to make you go away, now go away"-- then block his number. if he's creepy/dangerous-- tell him you're moving to california and block his number. |
send him a copy of the scum manifesto then leave a pair of scissors under his pillow
|
I always thought Lesbianism is the product of thwarting men's pleasure?

Went to Benihana for a relative's birthday. I had not been there in many 15 years. I was such a Japanese "minstrel-show," so bad, I think out table's cook spoke in fake japanese inflected accent, as part of the farce.
Horrible. Horrible. and so fucking HOT Overpriced shit. |

just a pest. made the mistake of being nice at a party and despite my best efforts to make myself unfindable on facebook, he found me. sigh. benihana's sucks. only appropriate that steve aoki is heir to that fortune. |

ah, shit. next time tell them that your boyfriend is a hells angel and will not tolerate some little shit texting you. or maybe a colombian sicario. you're good with that stuff. Quote:
i don't wanna ask who that is because then i'll never be able to unlearn that fact. i strongly suspect it's not a fact worth knowing so please don't. okay i need to escape this loop by saying something. SOMETHING. == ps- ALWAYS pack mace. and a pocket knife (the legal kind, not some crazy dagger) |
oh, i have a pocket knife at all times and a little mini pepper spray. i'm prepared.
