These are a few of my favorite things today

This amazing animated short about Courtney Love dekookifying her fashion that wordpress won’t let me embed.

Labyrinth > Inception, see below:

Soup. Here is a thing I wrote about where I like to get soup. Please comment if you have opinions on this matter. Also, here is a really amazing soup recipe, maybe my absolute favorite soup recipe of all time.

Princess Fancypants jewelery. New website up and running, just in time for Valentine’s Day gifting. There are handmade metal postcards appropriate for every one of those special someones, with messages ranging from “I would give you a kidney” to “I only want to be friends on the internet” to “I hate Valentine’s Day”. More ambiguous jewelery (ghost necklaces, shark teeth earrings, etc) available as well.

Also seasonally appropriate, this is probably my favorite music video from last year:

It kind of outdoes “Nothing Compares 2 U”. Remember back when we had real videos? Nice that we occasionally still do.

Circus Tightrope

I say Charlie Chaplin’s The Circus while it was running at Film Forum a few weeks ago and just died of happiness. By far the best summer movie I’ve seen in 2010.

I’ve also been listening to Janelle Monae‘s awesome The ArchAndroid a lot this summer, natch.

The Circus made me think of “Tightrope“, and then every time I heard “Tightrope” I revisited The Circus in my head.  So I made the following.  Because I’m a huge nerd.
