Noise du Jour: “Beautiful” by Yura Yura Teikoku
Posted by Ross Rosenberg
I do not understand Japanese, so I really have no idea what the lyrics to this song are, however the video for it is interesting. It tells the story about what appears to be an old midget who lives in a bathroom painting pictures with, and concerning, feces. He then meets a magical transgendered person and they fall in love. There’s more to it than that of course, and it’s worth watching to its stunning conclusion.

I’m speechless.
Japan deserves to be the first eaten when the Elders wake up. We, the rest of humanity, are not worthy.

I will preempt our glorious wonderhosten and correct your usage more gently than would Florian: “its,” not “it’s,” grok? ^_~
Ye don’t want another beatin’, do ye?
