If you missed the absolutely spectacular Blazers victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday, we can’t blame you. It was sunny outside and you were probably barbecuing while floating down the Sandy River or something. Thankfully the keen video editing skills of one “MaxaMillion711” has compressed the entire game into one convenient 5:12 clip. There […]

Pap Smears at Walgreens
If you haven’t watched this clip from Monday night’s Colbert Report about Planned Parenthood, watch it now. Seriously. It will be excellent fodder for this weekend’s Right to Life conference in Portland.

Manchester Orchestra – “Simple Math” Video
We have a soft spot of Jesus-ish/emo-ish (which is worse?) rock act Manchester Orchestra—here is what I wrote about their last album—and the Georgia band is prepping full-length number three for release on May 10th. But regardless of your take on the band, you REALLY need to watch this video. Directed by the duo of […]

The Legislature Gets Rick Roll’d
Someone, somewhere has spliced footage of Oregon state legislators debating bills on the House and Senate floor into a recreation of Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up.” Yes, yes, and yes!

In Which I Discuss The Topic of Web Series With My Head On My Desk
So judgy. Geez. I have spent the past four days watching a variety of web series for this post and oh boy…the majority of them are really, really bad. As someone with friends in the web series community, I have a vested interest in this genre. And even though feelings might get hurt, I am […]

Menomena – “TAOS” Video
Behold! It’s the latest cinematic creation from director Alicia Rose and the madcap men of Menomena. This video for “TAOS,” from last year’s Mines, finds Joe Haege as a lothario with a fantasy for women and the turnbuckles and Justin Harris as his wrasslin’ alter ego that engages in some no holds barred coed grappling […]

Fuse TV on Portland Music
“Welcome to Portland Oregon, where people come to enjoy the great outdoors and the sound of nature. SCREW THAT, LET’S ROCK!” Gulp. To be honest, that introduction from photographer Ray Gordon had me a little concerned about the quality of this Fuse segment on Portland music that premiered last week on their Hoppus on Music […]

New Lady Gaga Video- “Born This Way”
Oh, look; it’s the video for Lady Gaga’s new single, “Born This Way.” I made the mistake of watching this while eating breakfast; apparently, kaleidoscopic vulva and Lady Gaga’s head covered in gooey afterbirth don’t go well with scrambled eggs. Consider that your warning. That’s just the beginning, though. Once the “Manifesto of Mother Monster”—the […]
