Look and listen.
I’ve been at SXSW for the last few days, absolutely refusing to blog about any of it, but now that I’m home I have a few things for you to see and hear, and only one is SXSW-related. I had an absolutely amazing time there, too amazing to really even get into, but there were great times had, and great food eaten, and weird encounters, and amazing shows, and stumbling upon a practical effects demonstration, and etc and so on. Suffice to say, Austin was kept weird. Plus Jon Hamm offered me his jacket when he saw that I was cold, and you can never take that away from me. (I politely declined)
But I digress.
First, this is a shot of a Japanese man being reunited with his dog, post earthquake and tsunami. It makes me cry every time I see it. Donate, and come to The Meltdown this Wednesday, because we’re donating all proceeds to the Red Cross.
Then, please listen to this Iron & Wine cover of George Michael’s “One More Try” off of his Faith album. It’s gorgeous.
Finally, please look at this picture of John Oliver, Kumail, and Dave Foley holding up their green cards. They love this country, and they’ve worked hard to prove it.
