What a Fucken Creep

Posted on 24 March 2009. Filed under: Mild Mania, Music, Personal |

Amanda Palmer rumbling around a noisy bar playing creep on a Uke. There’s better audio available elsewhere, but there’s something gorgeous about the environment and the wandering. And the way people actually shut up sometimes. And then get involved.
Right.
So I’m just gonna get the subtext of this whole post out of [...]

I love that this image was my first hit for a CC Blood related image, as it happens to coincidentally include iconography relevant to today’s topic of interest. Score.
Anyway, this is essentially preparation/venting for an argument I’ve been gearing up to have with [...]

Sleuthing a Hole in the Road

Image and caption copyright de la Andrew Hussie at MS Paint Adventures. I’ve not asked permission, but I figure he wouldn’t mind as I’m advertising his totally awesome things, and I just bought a T-shirt, so that’s something. If he asks me to I’ll remove it.

I only discovered this a week or so ago, and [...]

Revealing the Beast – But not in a dirty way.

Posted on 10 March 2009. Filed under: Me |

Just got sent this by a friend, who found it on someone else’s facebook page. This was me tending bar (though not at this particular moment, obv) at the Brighton Zine Fair Workshop day, put on by my housemate and her gang of Punk message board friends.
I spent the day being eccentric behind the bar, [...]

Self and Determination – Me and my Gender

Posted on 8 March 2009. Filed under: Abnormality, Gender Identity, Genderfuck, Mild Mania, Politics, Ramble, gender |

This is gonna get complicated, and I’m not gonna get to the bottom of this right now, but I’ve been thinking about writing about this for a while, and recent events have made it more relevant so I shall have a go even if it is a bit of a false start.
Before we do start [...]

    Alabaster Crippens doesn't entirely believe in objective truth, therefore he can neither confirm or deny the accuracy of any statement, image or impression caused by, or displayed on, these pages of the so called 'internet'. He does however not want to get sued, even if the lawyers, legal system, and the concept of jurisprudence doesn't exist. Therefore if you believe the nonsense posted on here you do so entirely at your own risk. In other words: Don't sue me 'cause I might not mean it. Basically, anything you hear from anyone is unreliable, so if you want the 'truth' you need the perspectives of as many people as you can get..ideally people who are trustworthy and close to the particular 'truth' you wish to inspect. If you start trusting idiots with silly (and obviously made up) names then you're developing some kind of problem. Check your sources, examine their own politcal (or other) motivation, remember that anything people say is opinion unless you are certain that they speak the 'truth'. Even your own eyes can lie. Trust me on that one. Or don't..it doesn't bother me. Finally, everything written here is, to the best of my knowledge written by me and I reserve my right to be recognised as the author of these works. Any input from other sources should be clearly shown, if you note a mistake or anything..tell me..I'll try and sort out the problem. Please ask me if you want to use anything for commercial reasons...I probably won't mind but I need to know I'm not supporting anything I don't want to support. This is an attempt at a legal notice written without legal knowledge. Just follow the principles, I think most of you get what I mean, even if it won't stand up in a court of law. Just be polite you know...like in the good ole days.
