- Not impressive: The “chola” look has made it onto the runways, supposedly. The first image in this profile looks like the model has a granddad’s greasy combover. [BlackBook]
- Soon Twitter will be for shopping. Today, the company announced a “buy” button for its mobile users. [TechCrunch]
- Ball point pen drawings of the Speaker of the House, John Boehner. [Speaker of the House]
- Political debate continues to be moronic. Last week, the hosts of a web show called “PolitiChicks” appeared on Fox and Friends to encourage women to free themselves from the shackles of old feminism. Old feminism did little more than sexualize women, whereas this new feminism, they claim, allows women to be feminine. As God intended. Apparently that means “less government in their lives” and the love of “real men.” Most of what gets said makes little to no sense. [Talking Points Memo]
- Another critic praises the Carl Andre show at DIA: Beacon. This happens to be exceptional because Andre has been “relatively undersung” and his entire output has been “repressed in American museums.” Compared to Donald Judd, maybe, but most other artists? Nah. [Artforum]
- In 1988 German musician Holger Hiller produced different sounds from every item in a room, and collaged them together to make the song Ohi Ho Bang Bang. This is the video. [YouTube]
- Cao Fei’s latest film “La Town” channels film noir, Mattel toys, Tim Burton, and features a Santa Claus with a full set of reindeer. Watch the trailer: it looks bizarrely splendid. [Lombard Freid]
- Lady Gaga and Jeff Koons are friends. [Page Six]
- Martine Rothblatt is the highest paid female CEO in America. She is the 59-year-old founder of United Therapeutics, a transexual, and the subject of a New York Magazine profile. [New York Magazine]
