Muy Fabuloso!

Today is Fabuloso Friday courtesy of Ze Frank, normally a liberal comentating New York performance blog artist (performance … art … blogger … comment … hell, just watch it). This Friday, he harnessed the power of Wiki to let his general watching audience to write his script for him. Is this truly Fabuloso? I don’t know, but it’s a great distraction during half-time.

Yeah, It Freaks Me Out, Too.

I was reminded that today is 06/06/06, a phenomenon that won’t happen for another thousand years, by which time we’ll have progressed on to using symbols instead of numbers, if you believe the neo-historical travelogues of Doctor Who. Lacking basic training in Christian-based numerological superstition, I wasn’t aware that today was different than any other day, although I still grin like a five-year-old when my digital clock says “12:34”.

And then I tripped across this site which sells soft-sculpted full-head masks. Their purpose? “PhotogenicMasks have been created for anyone who desires to become a girl quickly and easily.”

I kid you not. This is the wearable equivalent of RealDolls.

For anyone who is fortunate enough not to know what a RealDoll is, I’m going to ruin it for you: It’s a full-sized female doll designed to have the look and proper fleshy feel that humans have - oh, yes, and be anatomically correct. I’m not sure which is worse: That people are buying these dolls, or that men are dressing up like them.

Everyone has their kinks, but for me it’s Furries and Plushies, all over again.

Happy Satan-Day, everybody!
