So I didn't actually find these guys. My friend did, and then sent me the link, and they are friggin hilarious. So check out livealavalive's channel on YouTube. Here is my favorite video because this is what I do in my car, on the street, and in the shower when no one's looking and they have the balls to do it with everyone looking:
It's probably not new. In fact, I'm pretty sure I'm just late on this but you'll forgive right? Because I'm still a fledgling SLer.
Anywhoozle, check out this 'dirty neko couch' from Urban Spirit and my little bonsai tree! Yes, both are free. The couch is the coolest because it comes with a can of pop, a box for a footstool, AND AND AND your very own lice! Haha jk about the lice. But I'm really into this dirty Victorian look going on. So divorc-ay...
So I'll paint the scene. Burt was having some issues. He couldn't get high enough on a plane. So I invited him over to my apartment. Snuck him real gangsta like because I was listening to Geto Boys and didn't want to wake the neighbors. So we sat down on my flea infested couch, got some pop and smoked this shit right quick.

[5:30] Burt Burnstein: i look high?
[5:30] leah Pleides: Idk I'm the one with a joint in my mouth
[5:30] Burt Burnstein: is that why it hasnt left your mouth
[5:31] Burt Burnstein: you should pass to your guest
[5:31] leah Pleides passes it
[5:31] leah Pleides: Jeez

When I wake up, and I see the darkness around me, I look at my closed blinds and think, is it really morning? Maybe it's just the apocalypse. And then I roll over.
I haven't been very active on here lately. I haven't really been on SL too much as of late but hopefully that will change. I want it to. I like my friends and I like doing things. I just have things in RL that are wearing me down. I'm a Whitney Houston...only without Bobby Brown and crack (which is really her only two problems according to the media).
So I promise to be more active, to write more, and to do more, to post all the crazy things I find and to be a better SL friend and citizen. Without further ado, here is something I found on the Internets (well I've been going to www.asofterworld.com for a while):

Lately, I have been hanging out at some different clubs. The Rooftop (Club and gallery!) with Savascha Navarita and Red Verwood is always my favorite, but lately I've been exploring Seven Ultra Lounge (check out their blog here). I really like their Underground with Mandra Moody and the club's owner, Bianca Darling. She is very nice and hot, of course!
This Sunday, there was a charity auction for the fires in Australia, Date for Down Under, put on by Winter Jefferson. It was pretty amazing. Of course, it was packed!! There were plenty of well known stars about who were up for auction. I won two! Catero Revolution and Newdoll Nikolaidis! Hopefully we raised a lot of funds for the cause. I like to think I put in a good *bit* haha. Anyway, so here are some pictures from The Underground andddd of course, the date with Catero Revolution!
Cat is super nice. We went for a drive. I crashed a few times and then managed to shoot us over a water canal and teetering over the ledge of an island. He was a good sport about it though. Then we went to Straylight Run, did some fishing, and I clumsily fell in the water a total of not less than 6 times, and caught a couple fish. I named one Catty Darling. Anyway, then it was time for dancing (meanwhile me and Cat are discussing art and romantical stuff in im), anddd so we went to Bogart's Jazz Club. I wore a dress made for buttsecks! (his words not mine!) Then we had some real fun with a couple monkeys. We ended the night with a sperm fight at his friends place! No literally we had sperm guns and everything. *STOMPS* I should have taken a picture!
So here are the pictures from all the going's on. Definitely check out Seven Ultra's blog to learn about their events. They're really fun and you get to hang out with some spectacular folks!

So I was looking around some place. I don't even know where I was looking and I found this interesting link to a gallery called Arthole (SLURL: HERE). It's pretty interesting. It's run by Nekka Raymaker, Arahan Claveau and Nebulosus Severine. Mostly the art is just making light of subliminal messaging. There are two exhibits: XXX Private Show and Church of Whoami. You can fly around and mess with light settings and it's just a fun little spot to explore and also take pictures. These are from the first exhibit, XXX Private Show by Arahan Claveau and Nebulosus Severine:


Church of Whoami by Nekka Raymaker:





What I really liked about this place was that it's just really interesting and creative. The sound can get a bit creepy but I think that's the point. It got less creepy when I was wandering around with friends, but going by yourself is also a treat. For me, I like the idea of a photoshoot in the padded sex room. I think like many artists, Arahan and Nebulosus really want you to think through the funniness of the creepiness. The fucking bunnies for instance are really insane and when paired with the grunting, hoarse sounds of a man and chickens, it's kind of hard not be like, is this really serious? But you think about it, and you find your own meanings to place onto the builds. In that way, it was just really cool to walk around and think about things, have fun with the different elements that each artist is putting into the builds.
Check out Arahan Claveau's blog at arahanclaveau.blogspot.com and make sure to LM Arthole and check out the gallery's blog at artholeblog.blogspot.com.

This magazine sort of inspired this blog, and when I mean sort of, I actually mean totally inspired this blog. I found this magazine during my experimental filmmaking class, when we had to buy a copy and seek out some notes that we found to be really essential to our projects, and because it was all about found footage, working with 16 millimeter and splicing together old films to create something new and different. Anyway, so FOUND MAG...
you can find Found Mag at http://www.foundmagazine.com
Here is a list of stores where you can buy a paper copy of the magazine: http://www.foundmagazine.com/stores
It's really worth it. You'll spend weeks looking at it and just going back to reread some of the notes. Some are funny, some are inspirational, and some are just strange. Here are a few from the website that I personally enjoy (kicks scanner or else I would have posted from my own collection):



(this last one is really cool because it was actually a part of children's handwritten poetry booklet, found in Brooklyn Heights)
Found Magazine is all about just finding stuff on the street, people send things in, things are found in library books, in the trash, on windshield wipers, on receipts, on money, anything really. It just has to be FOUND.
All right. So it is time to continue with the Foundness. No explanation necessary. Let's just get to the posting. This is just going to be a general "My Found Faves" post.
