the moth makes mondays okay
bleh. mondays. not fun days, but at least they're "the moth" days!
this NPR podcast reminds me of what i loved most about being a history major: relishing in the human experience through stories, slivers of life that allow us to better make sense of, appreciate, and deal with the chaos of our own lives.
here's this week's podcast - Sheri Holman: Rescue Mission.
"even then, i was so self-conscious...and i was so conscious of the picture i made...i was still living my life in third person. except now it wasn't a story anymore - i had actually caused real damage. and i was trapped."
and here's another one; hilario - Jeffery Rudell: The Undertaker's Daughter.
point of inspiration: thanks to jacqueline, my coworker, who introduced me to this lovely podcast during our 10-hour layover in the lufthansa first-class lounge in frankfurt.

temper trap
point of inspiration: my friend joey intro'ed me to "the temper trap" a few days ago, and i thought their epicness was cool sht. this morning, the most popular song on hypem was a remix of the temper trap's "love lost."
here are both versions for your listening pleasure.
dubstep remix by adventure club here.
original song here (entertaining video):

dragonette / myspace / music discovery
i dig dragonette and their electronic-ness.
no point of inspiration, just stumbled upon them while browsing musica on the web.
a fun song is posted below, but check out their myspace for more.
on a side note - although i still have scars from the trashiness that myspace has subjected me to in the past, the service is far from dead in terms of music. i don't use it all the time, but it's my go-to for exploring more music by a certain artist and figuring out which few tracks they, themselves, want to highlight.
while i have my trusty youtube+pandora+hypem+myspace thing going, i'm still looking for better tools. last.fm has been surprisingly lackluster...

energy
when i start thinking about energy and the world becoming a huge greenhouse and all of the terrible things we're doing to our environment, i start getting panic attacks and begin feeling guilty for every single thing i do. like, omg those 45 seconds i just spent zoning out in the shower will ultimately contribute to the accelerated arrival of our impending doom. or when i step on the gas pedal of a car too hard and hear the engine go wheeeee, i just envision all the emissions farting out of the tailpipe and doomsday getting closer and closer. nooOOOOOOoooOOOoo.
anyway, i try to make myself feel better by switching to paperless billing, drinking out of a reusable water bottle, and, of course, subscribing to treehugger.com on my google reader.
here's a 1.5 year old post that i stumbled upon. it's called "powering your home by bike," and it's about this BBC show called "Bang Goes the Theory," where they demonstrate how many people on bikes it would take to power a house. it's crayyyyyyy.
