What do you want to wake up every morning and BE?
– An insightful friend of mine, recounting some advice she offered a young model/actor who was seeking advice as to whether to get into the biz. It struck me as a good reminder of why creative people do what we do — that there’s something in us that unequivocably wants to BE a...

I feel like in the months after the 2008 Presidential election, young Blacks were ready to take a stand, and tell non-mainstream, largely white audiences that they too enjoyed “indie music.” Our mass numbers not only indicated that we were ready for a change, but that we would make it by proudly…

Rachael Gray: I Miss Film →
Every time I watch an outtakes reel or behind-the-scenes feature on a film, I am reminded of how much I miss working on film. I miss the incredibly hard work, the long hours, early mornings, and the amazing people I end up meeting. A tiny part of me wishes I had acting talent, but I realized after…

Day 143: Reflection: Settling.
365meghanarchy:
Why are we all settling? Taking jobs and marrying people we never really wanted. And then thinking we have the right to complain. Maybe I’m not a realist. Maybe I’m not logical, but I don’t see why we can’t hold out for the best. Why we can’t wait for something better. Sure, that might never come along. There is always that possibility. But wouldn’t it be better to try and wait,...
Rachael Gray: My Sandbox. Or, Sex Party Etiquette... →
Most of you know I help organise a sex party called Kinky Salon London. Today I had a run-in with a guy in the KSL group who really needed a smack upside the head about the rules of human interaction. The world of orgies is probably something that seems a bit unreal to most people, so I though…
Interesting how rules of etiquette at sex parties transition seamlessly into all life...

Machiavelli and the Privatization of the Military “The mercenaries and auxiliaries are useless and dangerous, and if anyone supports his state by the arms of mercenaries, he will never stand firm or sure, as they are disunited, ambitious, without discipline, faithless, bold amongst friends, cowardly amongst enemies, they have no fear of God, and keep no faith with men.” Machiavelli, The Prince...

My first real heart ache was at a school dance. I’m pretty sure school dances are designed to at least make someone miserable that night. There was a boy I was convinced sort of liked me. And at any age, girls’ friends are always assuring each other that men like them…. even if it’s clear they…
Impulse Power.
Running on Tumblr today while I take care of some business with my web hosting company. Reaching the home stretch on spring semester, hoping to get back into some proper work this Thursday on Daunting. Dave’s piece of the script is sitting on my email account, and I haven’t got a chance to give it the time it requires to add my piece of it. That’s the way it’s been between...
White Order
It was roach shit that kept me out of the bed. The little bastard went across while I was sleeping and all I could think about was one little turd landing in my eye, blinding me or infecting me with AIDS or something. I sat at the food of the bed, watching sun come in through gaps in the black tape while the bedspring gouged at my bare ass. Cold showers, overcooked breakfasts, and bad porn...
