YOUR MOTHER'S GOT A PENIS!

YOUR MOTHER'S GOT A PENIS! 01/06/2005 02:45 PM
Goldie Lookin' Chain Not useful to Brits or American hipsters, but most of us might remain ignorant of this fantastic act. The GLC are a hiphop collective from Newport, Wales. Playing up their welsh ethnicity and offering selections like Your Mother's Got A Penis, they're definitely a novelty act. But they use great beats and hilarious themes, and most reviews have been positive. The Guardian, citing the anti-chav parody nature of the act, pans them partially for being classist.

But I find it hard to dislike a group that can release a single about a cyborg sent on a mission the corner store to buy ten cigarettes. Some of the material is NSFW. Some videos are available at the main link.

Mother's Day card text contest

Mother's Day card text contest 04/13/2005 11:03 AM
To help celebrate Mother's Day, the latest Spymac contest asks members to come up with text for the inside of a Mother's Day card. Examples: My mother is special. My mother is kind. Without guidance from her, I'd go out of my mind. She taught me wisdom and courage. She gave me strength to go on. She's brought the best out of me. She is my mother. The entries don't have to rhyme and there is no specific theme to follow. There is no limit to the length either - it can be one line or one hundred lines. There are only a few guidelines to follow, but they are important: 1. The entry must be uploaded to the Spymac Gallery as a JPEG. The easiest way to do this is to either take a screenshot of your text and then export as JPEG in Preview (if using a Mac), or else choose "Print" from your text application and then "Save As PDF" and then convert the PDF to JPEG in Preview or any other application of your choice. 2. There should be no formatting, though the font should be Verdana Regular 11.0 pt. Line breaks are permitted but the text should all be aligned to the left and no changes in colour or size of the text. 3. Have fun! Maximum one entry per member (any multiple entries by members will be deleted leaving only the first entry). Contest closes April 27th when voting will be opened to the community. Any questions regarding the contest can be directed to contest@spymac.com. The lucky winner will receive a one year Wheel account. Entries can be uploaded to the Mother's Day card text section of the Spymac Gallery.

'When I was Garbage' - One Teen Mother's
Story

'When I was Garbage' - One Teen Mother's
Story 06/22/2005 02:58 AM
When I was Garbage by Allison Crews at age 17, teen mother advocate and activist. "I had become garbage, worthy only to sit in my isolated desk and cry to myself and throw up in a dirty bathroom stall. I was a pregnant teenage girl."
Allison died recently aged 22. She was active in girl-mom.co m, an online and in life support and education network for young mothers.
"To radically accept and defend a woman's right to choose, we must acknowledge the multiple ways that women come to make reproductive choices. By marginalizing teenage mothers, even within the feminist community, we are failing to recognize the realities of countless women and their children."
There's a report of her funeral and a website has been set up to collect memories for Allison's 7 year old son. {Allison's LJ} All of this comes via BitchPhD - her entry is also worth reading. (previous semi-related MeFi)

MOTHER'S
DAY: TRAMPOLINING WITH GRANDMA

MOTHER'S
DAY: TRAMPOLINING WITH GRANDMA 05/11/2004 10:47 AM

The new trampolines for kids come with a high safety net that completely surrounds the sides of the trampoline, so that you don't need a 'spotter' to safeguard against falling off. When you photograph through the net, you get a slight softening, a grainy filtering of your subject's image. Combined with the sense of motion, the effect to me was reminiscent of my happiest days of childhood: non-stop, gentle, carefree, uninhibited joy.
