Erotic Falconry
This site is a little crass. Part of their bio suggests “Where’s the perversion in loving another one of God’s creatures? Where’s the deviance in wanting to pull feathers rather than blond hair? What’s abnormal about wanting to see your wife take a three-inch beak instead of a 10-inch African American phallus or a silicon, injection-molded forearm?” I love it because it’s shocking and hilarious and it’s badly photoshopped porno with birds. Weird.

New Bat for Lashes video: Daniel [@myspace]
Anybody who remembers 2007’s totally creepy, Donnie Darko-esque video for “What’s A Girl To Do?” will be equally excited about this latest offering from Natasha Khan, alias Bat for Lashes. The band’s MySpace describes their sound as “Halloween when you’re small,” and the song is in fact quite unsettling, especially when presented with awesomely sinister black-clad backup dancers. “Daniel” is def one of the strongest tracks off of the band’s new record, “Two Suns.”

Yokoo Circle Scarf [@Etsy]
I’ve found something for you on Etsy! Is it queer? No, but you are. Will this Etsy-finding nonsense be a weekly occurrence? I don’t know. Why don’t you buy a scarf for me [in baby blue, please] and we’ll see what happens. For even more Yokoo fun, read her Featured Seller article from last September.
