My friend Bennett had a birthday party with a collage station to make a custom cards. Consequently, I discovered I like collaging yesterday! Also, all parties should have a collage station.

The front of my collaged card features Bennett’s photographic head decoupaged on top of the body of a child’s torso. The torso has a shirt that reads “Handle with care.” Behind Bennett are two white blood cells derived from an elementary school book of illustrated science lessons. The word “Swag!” appears in honor of Justin Bieber’s new album. Behind all of this are pink radiating lines. The interior of the card features several elements: an advertisement for skin care; a woman performing CPR on a dummy, turquoise geometric tiles, seaweed, an illustrated woman with a severe black bob and her tongue out, the same illustrated woman’s chin extending our impossibly from a different location, two more white blood cells, one of which has the face of a boy attached to it and an arm extending out, holding a pretzel, and the headline “We offer the skills you need.”

An interesting study, especially for its speculation on why lesbians don’t see the same outperformance as gays. Re: the latter, this line struck a chord with my own experience: “stressors possibly unnerve gay males into compensating for homophobia through academic striving.”

This is an Intro to Film course, so I’m just using a textbook, but it’s one I like quite a bit (The Film Experience). That said, ancillary markets are just a blip in this chapter, tucked under Distribution in the second chapter.

Anas Al-Sharif @AnasAlSharifO To Whom It May Concern, The occupation is now openly threatening a full-scale invasion of Gaza. For 22 months, the city has been bleeding under relentless bombardment from land, sea, and air. Tens of thousands have been killed, and hundreds of thousands wounded. If this madness does not end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people's voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.

Me, realizing my friends were singing happy birthday with a donut that had a “zero” candle in it: “I get to start over?!”

A cutie in a Cookout cutoff shirt presents a birthday donut to John, with lit candles. John wears a black crown and jean vest. A cutie in a Cookout cutoff shirt kneels before John, presenting him with with a birthday donut. John realizes the main candle in the donut is a “zero” and cackles.

Birthday was cute! Basking in the glow of friends.

The birthday boy sits on a sofa at Club Era, where it was amateur gogo dancer night. He’s wearing a jean vest and black crown. He smiles while crossing his legs and holding a drink.
