Just Don’t Call It Slut-Shaming: A Feminist Guide to Silencing Sex Workers
by Nine @ Feminist Ire
The feminist movement really is in a pickle these days. It used to be a given that things like prostitution, pornography and stripping were bad, but nowadays there’s some resistance to these time-honoured notions. Women are increasingly coming out as sex workers and demanding rights. As feminists seek to shut down strip bars and criminalise clients, those women are complaining not just that they’ll lose their livelihood, but that they’ll be at increased risk of abuse and violence if their industries go underground! You can’t let such trivial concerns get in the way of your crusade, so below are some handy tips for discrediting these pesky meddlers. Remember: being an actual sex worker doesn’t entitle her to speak about sex work!

Billie Joe Armstrong, Green Day Singer, Loses It On Stage
Sept 22, 2012 | (Excerpt from) HuffPost:
“I’m not fucking Justin Bieber, you motherfuckers,” Billie Joe Armstrong says in the video above. “You’ve gotta be fucking joking. This is a fucking joke. I got one minute — one minute left. Oh, now I got nothing left.”
In the profanity-laced tirade, Armstrong points out that he’s been around since 1988 and implies he deserves more than what the band received.
Armstrong ends his tirade by smashing his guitar and promising to the audience that the band will be back… [ FULL HuffPost article HERE ]

Lambchop has been described as being like “a 6-year-old girl, very intuitive and very feisty, a combination of obstinacy and vulnerability. A soft-spoken fleecy little lamb with a penchant for mischief and wisecracks”.
PROS: Intuitive and fleecy, qualities lacking in both U.S. major-party presidential candidates; television pioneer and actress (1957-1998); the strength and resolve she displayed while living through a life-changing experience like over four decades’ worth of somebody’s fist constantly up her ass.
CONS: soft-spoken; rumors of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) mostly caused by over four decades’ worth of somebody’s fist constantly up her ass.
Little Bo-Peep is a famous shepherdess who takes a laissez faire attitude toward her sheep, and lets them come home to her rather than trying to find them.
PROS: has traveled extensively overseas (primarily England); inspires the flock like no vice presidential candidate has… since 2008.
CONS: her laissez faire attitude viewed as being “too libertarian” for the 2012 political climate.

SUPER 8 CINEMA
“The Punk Rock Movie was assembled from Super 8 camera footage shot by Don Letts, the disc jockey at The Roxy club during the early days of the UK punk rock movement, principally during the 100 days in 1977 in which punk acts were featured at The Roxy club in London…
The film features live footage of The Clash, the Sex Pistols, Wayne County & the Electric Chairs, Generation X, Slaughter and the Dogs, The Slits, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Eater, Subway Sect, X-Ray Spex, Alternative TV and Johnny Thunders and The Heartbreakers. Backstage footage of certain bands, such as Generation X, The Slits and Siouxsie and the Banshees, is also included…
All live footage was shot at the Roxy, except that of the Sex Pistols, who were filmed at The Screen On The Green cinema in London on 3 April 1977. The performance was Sid Vicious’ first public concert with the band…” - WikiQuote

In Today’s Primary, Write-In Candidate Tim Coomer Seeks Votes
“The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office is bleeding money. Since assuming the reigns of the MCSO in 1992 the current Sheriff has cost county tax payers not millions, not tens of millions but hundreds of millions of dollars. Starting with a public relations department that acts as a self serving media machine. Not merely providing photo opportunities for the Sheriff but gradually, over the years, meeting out a long procession of media stunts designed to capture headlines.
First tent city, pink underwear, green bologna and of course the posses. Then chain gangs were all the rage. Then female chain gangs. Then female chain gangs burying the indigent deceased. Anything to stir up some “controversy.” When the debate over illegal immigration heated up more performances would ensue. Setting up a perimeter and targeting random “suspects” when over 40,000 felony warrants remain unserved is not efficient police work. None of it has worked.
We are no safer as a result and that only accounts for a portion of the 99.5 million dollars of mis-appropriated funds. The rest used on operations not only targeting political opponents contending for the office but members of the county board of supervisers, judges and journalists. In addition to the nearly hundred million of misused resources, there is the lawsuits, mostly for wrongfull injury and death occuring inside the jails.”
- Tim Coomer, Write-In Candidate for Sheriff
With the August 28th Democratic primary well underway today, political activist and Phoenix punk scenester Coomer has officially written his hat into the ring as a candidate for Maricopa County Sheriff.
You can too, when voting for Sheriff, by writing his name in as your vote of choice.
Readers of AZ Kaos may remember Coomer, who also ran against Arpaio as a write-in candidate in 1996, being arrested shortly after shouting “$100 Million Dollars” during the Maricopa County Sheriff’s speech in April 2011, as that incident was covered in this blog (with video of the arrest itself included).
So, as the saying goes: Vote Early. Vote Often. Vote Coomer.
Mission Chinese by Cole Schreiber & David Parker - Drama that surrounds a local chinese restaurant. (via asianamericanfilm).
Eater.com calls it “super intense”, adding, “this film has everything: mystical chef tattoos that move, tons of fake blood, a cameo by owner Anthony Myint’s 60-foot Chinese dragon, and some serious whole roast pork porn.” [running time: 07m08s]

LET PATSY REST IN PEACE petition wants to keep The Dead buried
James Davis doesn’t want any trouble, and he’s as flummoxed as the rest of us when it comes to Stevenson Alabama City Officials objecting to his late wife being buried a stone’s throw from the Davis homestead front porch.
“While state health officials say family burial plots aren’t uncommon in Alabama, city officials worry about the precedent set by allowing a grave on a residential lot on one of the main streets through town.”
In other words, Stevenson city officials are clearly worrywarts who hate a fine tradition…
