To the left of Nick Cave’s left foot, at the lip of the stage, looking up in reverent, fevered wonder, right cheekbone partially obscured by a power supply: it’s John Darnielle, 16 years old, loving his life for at least the next 35 minutes and probably until at least 2 a.m.

I am a street photographer in New York City. Several months ago, I was approached by a representative of DKNY who asked to purchase 300 of my photos to hang in their store windows “around the world.” They offered me $15,000. A friend in the industry told me that $50 per photo was not nearly enough to receive from a company with hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue. So I asked for more money. They said “no.”Today, a fan sent me a photo from a DKNY store in Bangkok. The window is full of my photos. These photos were used without my knowledge, and without compensation.I don’t want any money. But please REBLOG this post if you think that DKNY should donate $100,000 on my behalf to the YMCA in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. That donation would sure help a lot of deserving kids go to summer camp. I’ll let you guys know if it happens.

The recent unprecedented video footage of a giant squid filmed in its deep ocean habitat has renewed interest in the enormous — and yet still mysterious — species. It’s believed that giant squid (genus Architeuthis) can grow up to 55 feet long. The individual captured on video via a small submarine located in the North Pacific Ocean was about 30 feet long and silver and gold in color, marine biologist Edie Widder, who helped to shoot the footage, said. Her colleague Tsunemi Kubodera added that the squid was missing its two longest tentacles. Cephalopod experts are intrigued by the world record footage.

You can’t tell me the one on the right isn’t Stephen Fry in a wig.
(Oh look, and David Mitchell on the left.)

Now Playing: Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark

Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark (2010)

A young girl sent to live with her father and his new girlfriend discovers creatures in her new home who want to claim her as one of their own.

By-the-numbers haunted house/little monsters movie, though one spoilery thought:

Now Playing: The Adventures of Robin Hood

The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938)

When Prince John and the Norman Lords begin oppressing the Saxon masses in King Richard’s absence, a Saxon lord fights back as the outlaw leader of a rebel guerrilla army.

I now need to watch more swashbucklers. Swashbuckler films, that’s the ticket!

Now Playing: 21 Jump Street

21 Jump Street (2012

A pair of underachieving cops are sent back to a local high school to blend in and bring down a synthetic drug ring.

What I appreciated most about it is its unending commitment to genre and a charming self-awareness. Obviously made by and for cop movie fans, blended with a modern sensibility to the high school genre, and never not cognizant of the fact that this is a remake of that Johnny Depp show. On top of that: a lovely turn about adult life and friendships defining one’s self more than the formative educational years.

Of course, it doesn’t hurt that I’m a complete Lord/Miller fan and I’m a sucker for John Woo doves. And limo chases. Best night of our lives? Best night of our lives.

if by ‘nerds’ you mean ‘most awesome people on the planet’

Wouldn’t say ‘nerds’ if I didn’t mean that.
Wouldn’t go to Vulcan if there wasn’t an area in the visitors’ centre where you could sit at a replica of the bridge and dress up in uniform.
