Who needs a red room of pain anyway?
This week it's Amsterdam Dance Event. No matter how much I love music, I'd
rather be in Japan. That says something. Even if I were to hop on a plane
tonight, I'd be too late to see this wonderful exhibition.
By chance I stumbled upon an article from
Tokyo Kinky. Hajime Kinoko is a famous Japanese shibari artist. This May he tied models
to the outside of a building for a shibari rope bondage installation and I
just love it.
Not everybody was happy though. The installation took place during early
evening with a number of families with young children in the area. Then again
how hard can it be? Ever noticed the universal appeal Spider-Man has to the
little ones? Just tell your children those are Spider-Woman's kids,
practicing. Anyway it's a wonderful exhibition.
Face the music
Wonderwall is about an imaginary friend who's gonna save you from yourself.
Don't believe that. Neill Gallagher wrote it for his girlfriend and future
wife. Only when they divorced, he said it was not about her. He clearly was
right when he wrote it. Only question that remains is who's gonna save him
from his own silliness now.

Somewhere in April Ukrainian forces switched to NATO caliber ammunition. Big
surprise. Talk about crossing the Rubicon. An
excellent article
in the New Yorker explains how underdog Ukraine managed to turn the tide
because of their planning. From what I read, their decision that Kyiv should
not fall, no matter what was key. The other one was trust no-one, including
the United States until they've proved their loyalty, which took some time.
The article gave me a whole new appreciation of Ukraine.
