I really have no idea what to think of this. However, I’m pretty sure whoever made it enjoyed Iron Jawed Angels.If you don’t do anything else on International Women’s Day, watch this absolutely fantastic video! Best “Bad Romance” parody I’ve ever seen & a surprisingly powerful homage to the women who fought for our right to vote. Lyrics here.
TW for depictions of involuntary commitment & related violence.
Oh god, I love this very much.
Fuck You, Cee Lo Green
Rachel Stark sent this to me a couple weeks ago and informed me it was the best music video ever. So, y’know, that’s a pretty serious endorsement….

House by the Sea, Iron & Wine
♥♥♥
there is a house by the sea
two jealous sisters, they’re waiting for me
and one is laid on the floor
and one is changing the locks on the doors
and I’ve been buying the time on my knees
and I’ve been selling their blankets to bleed (on)
around the house by the sea
the scent of roses and raspberry leaves
and there is smoke in my clothes
too much time with just smoke in my nose
and I’ve been making the meaning they lack
and I’ve been burning that book they come back to
there is a house by the sea
and an ocean between it and me
and like the shape of a wave
the jealous sisters will sing on my grave
and I’ve been living to run where they led
and I’ve been dying to rise from their bed
and I’ve been sparing my neck from their chain
and they’ve been changing the sound of my name
and I’ve been swimming to them in my sleep
and I’ve been dreaming our love and our freedom
