Anal Disembowelment, Chinese Opera

Gross

Everyone thinks I'm making it up, so thank God CNN covered this story about the 6-year-old girl who got her intestines sucked out through her asshole by the drain of a public kiddie pool. Yes, you read that right. Disemboweled via her rectum. And fuck you guys for thinking I would make something like that up.


Beautiful
I consider myself a fan of everything Damon Albarn does, and by that logic I now consider myself a fan of Chinese Opera. Mr. Albarn, of Blur and Gorillaz, is composing the music for Monkey: Journey to the West, an opera based on a 16th-century Chinese fable and a 70's Japanese TV show. For the show, he invented an instrument that uses a keyboard of arcade-style buttons to control a 24-note scale of car horns that he recorded in China. God damnit, I love this man.
