Rhymenocerous v. Hiphopopotamus (feat Rhymenocerous and Hiphopopotamus) Lyrics

[Brett:]I'm the mother flippin' Rhymenocerous My beats are fat and the birds are on my back And I'm horny (I'm horny! ) If you choose to proceed you will indeed concede Cos I hit you with my flow The Wild Rhymo Stampede. I'm not just wild, I'm trained, domesticated I was raised by a rapper and rhino that dated And subsequently procreated That's how it goes Here's the Hiphopopotamus The hip hop hippo [Jermaine:]They call me the Hiphopopotamus My lyrics are bottomless... (Clear throat)... [B:]Some times my rhymes are polite like 'Thanks you for dinner Mrs. Right, that was very delicious, good night'. Some times they're obscene like a ponographic dream NC17 with ladies in as stream of margarine. (Mmmm) Ha Ha Ha Ha Yeah, some margarine. [J:]They call me the Hiphopopotamus Flows that glow like phosphorous Poppin' off the top of this esophagus Rockin' this metropolis I'm not a large water-dwelling mammal Where did you get that preposterous hypothesis? Did Steve tell you that, perchance? Hmm, Steve. [B:]My rhymes and records they don't get played Because my records and rhymes they don't get made And if you rap like me you don't get paid And if you roll like me you don't get laid. [J:]My rhymes are so potent that in this small segment I made all of the ladies in the area pregnant Yes, sometimes my lyrics are sexist But you lovely bitches and hoes should know I'm trying to correct this. [B:]Other rappers dis me (dis me). Say my rhymes are sissy (sissy). Why? [J:]Why? [J&B:]Why? [B:]What? [J:]Why exactly? [B:]What? Why? [J:]Be more constructive with your feedback, please. Why? [B:]Why? [B:]Why, because I rap about reality? Like me and my grandma drinking a cup of tea? There ain't no party like my nanna's tea party. Hey! Ho! [B:]I'm the motherflippin' [J:]I'm the motherflippin' [B:]I'm the motherflippin' [J:]Who's the motherflippin? [B:]I'm the motherflippin' [J:]I'm the motherflippin' [B:]I'm the motherflippin' [J&B:]Motherflippin'

TED: Mohamed Hijri: A simple solution to the coming phosphorus crisis - Mohamed Hijri (2013)

Biologist Mohamed Hijri brings to light a farming crisis no one is talking about: We are running out of phosphorus, an essential element that's a key component of DNA and the basis of cellular communication. All roads of this crisis lead back to how we farm -- with chemical fertilizers chock-full of the element, which plants are not efficient at absorbing. One solution? Perhaps … a microscopic mushroom. (Filmed at TEDxUdeM.)

Challenge: Find your invisible corner

Find your invisible corner. The pile of shit that’s been there so long that it’s become part of the furnishings. It’s invisible to us because it’s been untouched for ages, but it doesn’t belong. It’s full of stuff that should be elsewhere. Find that space. And spend 20 minutes fucking dealing with it.

#145 – recording his log IYKWIM

Well that got weird. I’ve been thinking about having Riker do a self-cybering “Bill Striker: Erotic Frontiersman” monologue for a long time now and might find my way there still at some point because I find the idea of him narrating his own saucy author-insert adventures sort of hilarious and fodder for some unrestrained Randy Rikerism stuff. But this sort of went the lonely pathos uncomfortableness route instead, because apparently I wanted to crawl around for a while inside Riker’s dysfunctional coif? I don’t know, this project takes me in unexpected directions. I asked twitter for Riker-in-sleepclothes episode suggestions and got a bunch of good pointers, but in the interest of time I actually ended up in the mean time pulling these from The Host , the episode that in Larp Trek terms hasn’t happened yet and presumably never will where Bev macks on a Trill negotiator who then gets horribly wounded and so has to have his trill symbiote implanted in Riker, who Bev then also macks on bit before further things happen. So these aren’t really pajamas or bathrobe, it’s just a civilian outfit, but that plunging neckline was good enough for me for these purposes. In related Riker news, I am, along with apparently the rest of the internet, delighted this morning by a little site called Scroll Down To Riker , which does exactly what it says it does if you do what it says to do. I feel like it could use a lot more Rikerisms, but it’s not like I did the work so I should really just be thankful it’s there. And I am!

Such a fertile imagination, that kid. You gotta wonder where he comes up with these ideas. BTW, you know what they call scifi in the future? Fantasy.

So this is a thing that I’m working on right now. It’s still in very early stages of development, but I thought I’d do an experiment where I open up the dev copy to anyone who’s interested, in the hopes of getting feedback! When it’s done I’d like to put it on phones, since it obviously makes more sense there. Please take a look!

Real Life Instagram by Bruno Ribeiro

Traditional photography with actual cameras has gone way of the handy camera we all have on our smartphones. It also seems we can’t avoid slapping a filter on it via some photo app and sharing it on every social network out there. Instagram is the leader of the pack when it comes to photos, filters, and sharing and London-based Bruno Ribeiro decided to take the idea into the real world with his series of photos called Real Life Instagram . Because we all know how difficult it is to disconnect the digital world from the every day, mundane analog one.

TED: Jeff Speck: The walkable city - Jeff Speck (2013)

How do we solve the problem of the suburbs? Urbanist Jeff Speck shows how we can free ourselves from dependence on the car -- which he calls "a gas-belching, time-wasting, life-threatening prosthetic device" -- by making our cities more walkable and more pleasant for more people.

Why is it so hard to find a job? - Construction Worker

Université de Nanterre, Paris, France I've just got back from Paris where I was helping to promote ReAct Paris, a conference organised by the European Parliament to tackle the problems of unemployment in Europe, particularly youth unemployment, which in some parts of Europe stand close to a miserable 30%. I was leaving miniature workers hidden around the streets of Paris and asking the question "Why is it so hard to find a job?" The following installations were all shot in Paris for the event. Find out more about the conference at www.facebook.com/events/526583490753603 / and join in the debate through the live stream on 15th October at www.youtube.com/user/EuropeanParliament

Hooked Lighting Range by Buster + Punch

Buster + Punch explores the world of rock ‘n’ roll and motorcycles with a collection of lighting that takes it to the darker side of life. Named after the hand-machined brass Hook that they make and that the pendants are suspended from, the Hooked lighting range hangs at the perfect height with brass, rubber, and bronzed shade components. The fixtures were inspired by the knurled volume knobs on a Gibson and they also bring a bit of a Harley’s tires with the matte rubber details. The collection is made up of simple brass pendants and fixtures with bronzed gunmetal shades, all of which can be suspended from the ceiling or a wall mount. The ceiling rose holds the signature Hook, allowing you to modify the height that the pendants hang from. The Hook comes on the wall mounted versions as well so you can also adjust the height.
