George Washington Smoking a Fatty? OH YES.

Is this guy's art defacing THE AMERICAN MONEY?  *gasp* You know if you ever fuck with that, you're done (or blacklisted at the very least).  Either way, be it on purpose or not, still scandalous.  I think it's clever s and refreshing.  Defacing anything owned by the American government isn't a bad idea in some circumstances.


 The following is taken from EdieBaron's Etsy shop to disclaim:
 

The Artistic Coins are becoming quite popular to be worn as pendants to show of national pride or as collection item specifically fit to their hobby or interests; many people ask the question:
"Is it illegal to deface coins ( by elongating them, artificially toning them,
putting a hole in them, etc)?"
According to U.S.code Title 18, Chapter 17, Section 331:

The answer to the defacement question is: it depends.

Essentially, the key word here is 'fraudulently'. You can legally drive a nail through a coin, paint it ultramarine, melt it, or bend it into a pretzel - but the moment you try and use that coin as currency, you're breaking the law. You can sell that altered coin as a collectable, but you can't use it to buy a Snickers. You can gold-plate your cent-less V-nickel, but you can't pass it with the intention of making the clerk think it's a gold piece. You can mash your pennies in the cent squisher at the zoo, but don't even think about buying penny candy with them ever again. Get the idea?

This is good, because we the thought of a president who spends their freetime this way is a good idea in general. Smoke that fatty George.  We're not going to get political today, but we're feeling in that kind of mood. 

 You decide... I still think it's genius and quite clever.  Why not? 

But, this is only a tip of the iceberg.  They also have sweetly and sickly romantic lover his & her's pendants (yeah, I know that term is totally heterosexist, but I used the term, not the shop -- for the record!).

This is what originally taught my attention (seriously, my heart melted!).  Too cute and kind of perfect for a couple you know or newlyweds who are into cute sweet little romantic nothings.

Trans Pride 2012!

What an amazing crowd of beautiful people and a giant sexy community of gender queer and trans folk at Trans Pride LA last Saturday!!  This was our debut as a vendor!  People finally got to see our items up close and personal. 

We were selling our most totally radical stuff because of queer community can fucking rock it.  People were diggin' it and showin' us plenty of love.

Thanks who all supported!  We love you.

How to Get on Your Government's Black List

Allow me for a moment to become a bit political.  Generally, I never intended to get political on this blog… But really, who can I kid?  I am a political being.  The personal is the politic is it not?

This is a living piece.

Now, I cannot for a moment think that people do not care for what is happening in this world in front of our eyes.  

College graduates find it impossible to find a “good” job.  We were promised prosperity and a “decent living” for grinding our brains for 4 years.  We come out to a dry desert of chaos and lack.  Everyone who has a job is a slave wage lacking creative energy.  Tied to the dollar.  Strapped to the love of cash.   Cash that allows us to buy shit we don’t need.  The person of color makes less than the white collared good for nothing banker and police officer.  Black men are disproportionately locked up more than white men.  Prisons make more money than colleges.  Everyone is scared of crime and drugs.  We invest more money into prisons than higher education.  Everyone hates immigration (and Mexicans).  Everyone carries a gun.  The prison system is taking over the economy.  The economy has taken over the environment.  The environment and Mother Nature are furious and waiting for the right moment to retaliate.  The corporation has eaten politics alive.  Democracy died a long time ago.  Disease is everywhere and on everyone.  HIV kills black women.  Black babies.  Black  race.  We obsess over botoxed nobodies who work less, do less for society, and are paid more.  Meaningless rich nobodies.  Work.  School.  Work.  Die… Or push back.  Let it rise.  Let the movement rise.  Rise up.  Get angry.  Be pissed.  They can’t take away your right to be mad and angry at the current situation.
Sometimes reality sets in far too much and you have to let out a rant.

Perfect Boyfriend Manual:Tip #4

Happy Valentine's Day Cyber Freaks!  Thought we debut our new project today: PERFECT BOYFRIEND MANUAL TIPS.

 
Pull this simple little trick our of your pocket every once in a blue moon to get her swooning over the loving stud you are: 

Make her a relaxing hot bubble bath with flower petals, just because -- not just because "it's Valentine's Day".

Do it for her, just for her.  I suggest after a stressful day at work.

Go all or go home on this one. 

Rose petals help relax her and add an aroma of romance.   Some suggestions: White lilies are zen-like.  Red roses make her brain think of sex.  It'll make her feel renewed and relaxed -- ready for a romp in the sheets. 

ALSO, pay attention to this tiny little detail that can slip your mind. CANDLES = essential for the perfect lighting mood. 

You cannot make love when you're stressed.  Sometimes these extra little moment to allow her to come back to herself are better than any shoulder rub you can offer.

Well Learned Advice from Miss Mary Poppins

Vegan Snack: Roasted Chickpeas + Discovered Pale Ale! (only for those of age, of course!)

These roasted chickpeas are a delicious low-calorie and protein rich filler for a sandwich or a crunchy  salad topper! They are even better perfectly on their own (or paired with beer) for an easy-to-transport energy-packed snack. Great for those on the go! This versitale and tasty little bean can be eaten as is from the can or roasted to reach the height of flavor.  I hated garbanzos as a kid (along with lima beans) since mom would always find a way to sneak them into my dinner. My true love for them didn't come into my teens where I became a vegetarian, and was forced to try new foods. Chickpeas (also called garbanzo beans) are always in my cupboard for the obvious reason that they are packed will protein, very affordable! I love this recipe for parties and beer night snacks. However, avoid these guys if you're watching your salt intake as all canned beans have higher levels of sodium. Regardless, they offer up a whopping 12 grams of protein and only 3 grams of fat.

 Ingredients: 

-1 can chickpeas or garbanzo beans, rinsed & drained

- olive oil

- lemon

- paprika

-garlic powder

-cracked black pepper and salt

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350dgrees F. Rinse and drain the chickpeas, to remove some of the extra sodium from canned beans. Drain and let dry. In a bowl, mix a few drizzles of olive oil, lemon juice, paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Pour oil mixture over chickpeas and toss with hands until all chickpeas are coated evenly.

The longer they stay in the oven, the toastier and crunchier they get. 

Total Cost: less than $2
Calories: 280 per cup

AND,

Get ready to keep the weekend going with this out of the ordinary treasure.  I found this beer at the 99 cents only store in Hollywood.  You can't go wrong with$6 (cheap!).  This Pale Ale reminds me of fresh based Pumperknickle bread hints.  Wheaty and toasty -- yet fresh and crisp.  It's a nice pairing with these Roasted Chickpeas too! It's best enjoyed with a salty snack that is rich in carbs -- if you want to stay on your feet for the night.

con gusto, 

THE LOVE CATs.
