Austin Update! Short and sweet.

Music post by Kjerstin Johnson on March 19, 2009 - 10:43am; tagged austin, music, SXSW.

The Kill Rock Stars show was great! The floor was full from noon o’clock on, when Portland locals Explode into Colors hit the stage. This three piece trio wowed the crowd outside their Pacific Northwest with Klaudia’s vocals and the awesome drumming from Lisa and Heather. The Paper Chase, Horsefeathers, Thao Nguyen and the Get Down Stay Down, Marnie Stern, and the Thermals followed!

Getting slimed, in more ways than one

DigiBitch post by Ashley Brittner on March 17, 2009 - 2:06pm; tagged bizarro world, Chris Brown, Chris Brown, Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards, Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards, Rhianna, Rihanna, Twittermoms.
A group of concerned mothers deeming themselves "Twittermoms" created a petition to remove previously decreed Douchebag Chris Brown from the list of Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards nominees. The petition also called for Rihanna's removal because "had she made the rational decision to accept the no-contact order and end the relationship, she would not be named". Brown withdrew from the competition himself last week, but Nickelodeon would not do remove his name previous to that on their own stating it was up to the kids to decide. Why was Rihanna called to remove herself in the first place? Was Nickelodeon valid in their initial reaction to keep Brown in the running? What about the morality of the other nominees?

Allien Landing Stateside

Music post by Briar Levit on March 17, 2009 - 9:45am; tagged Electronic Music, Ellen Allien, Techno.

 

I originally heard German electronic strongwoman, Ellen Allien in 2003 when her first full length album, Berlinette, arrived on the scene. Her stop/start beats and the warmth of her spoken words on top ('Need a planet without cars and wars—no wars—no cars—no wars—no cars. I wish it could be true...) got me right away. Well, she hasn't stopped since (and really she'd be going on for quite a while before that). Her newer works are perhaps less accessible—exploring sound scapes rather than dance beats, but you can always get your fill of BPMs with Allien's DJ sets.

British police lose when it comes to taking sexual assault seriously

DigiBitch post by Ashley Brittner on March 16, 2009 - 1:30pm; tagged British police, douchebags, John Worboys.
Last week, John Worboys was convicted of one count of rape and seven counts of sexual assault on women he drugged and attacked in his cab. At least 85 women accused him of assault and the number is believed to be even higher than that. Due to a practice by British police to fail to classify women's allegations of assault as crimes, Worboys and who knows how many other predators got away with their crimes, until last year when those complaints were finally taken seriously.

Adventures in Feministory: Louise Fitzhugh & Harriet the Spy

Love / Shove post by Annalee Schafranek on March 16, 2009 - 12:39pm; tagged Adventures in Feministory, books, childhood, harriet the spy, louise fitzhugh, nostalgia.

For my turn at Adventures in Feministory, I wanted to give props to the creator of a character that inspired girls to keep spy notebooks and make their own tool belts. A character that was every bit as unladylike as she was fond of gossip. A character who was unapologetically loud and rocked jeans and sneakers everyday. I am, of course, talking about Louise Fitzhugh and (my personal hero) Harriet the Spy.

The First Lady Fashion Show

Important Things w/ Demetri Martin

Even though Michelle Obama is getting the opportunity to do things like use her family's eating habits as a positive model of nutrition, in other ways, I can't help but feel like the majority of coverage about her is regarding her style icon status and her 'duties' at the White House—and those things obviously pale in comparison to what the woman is capable of offering. Check out Kristen Schaal's 'report' on The Daily Show.
