I shot pictures last night but I have a meeting and then plans and I am not going out tonight so I can get that stuff to you tomorrow AOK No Problem. I figured I would spend today catching up on some things that I have sitting around. This is going to be a two part update. The first one, this one, I have fun stuff for you like videos and links and good content like that.  In part two I just want to get some feedback about random stuff going on about my site. Sound like a good time? Let’s begin.

First off, let’s talk about this fucking cat.  I know after my bout with kittens you are probably sick of me talking about cats. I would be too. I kinda fucking hate cats. I am allergic and they are gross and have weird bugs and sores and all sorts of gross shit.  Also most of them are mean and the his and bite and scratch. Either that or they just lay around all day totally indifferent to the life that is happening around them. Now my vote for worst cat ever might be my friend Darenzia’s cat. I went over to her apartment for less than ten minutes because we were going to a party together and I met here there.  While she was getting dressed I was left with her cat who is fucking clearly possessed by Satan.  This Devil cat speaks in tongues and would not stop hissing at me and trying to murder my fucking family. Seriously, watch this quick video I shot and tell me he is not trying to plot a way to kill my parents.

Nextly, I mentioned this on my Tumblr but I wanted to mention it again. My friend Cortne Lanier is an amazing painter and she has a show in Brooklyn right now that you should check out.  Three of her paintings are based on photos I took so clearly they have to be awesome.  The gallery is near like 10 different trains so you have no excuse.  For more info and to see the paintings based on my photos click here.

Also, you should be following my Tumblr because I post all sorts of amazing stuff on it that you are missing out on by just reading Driven By Boredom. Twitter works too, as I post everything from both sites on there.

Lastly, we have my friend Kayvon Zand’s new video. I wanted to blog about this with some other videos but it seems right now none of my friends have new videos out so he gets bunched in with this odd update. Kayvon is clearly a total weirdo, but he said he would make me a giant hat if I posted this video. It also has all sorts of people I love in it and it is a very cool looking video even if it’s a little bit overexposed. Plus if you are into like goth industrial stuff or whatever the kids are calling it these days, the song is probably pretty awesome. So watch this madness video and I will be back later with a really boring update.

Also some old stuff: Look at this, this and this. Bye!

I just wanted to give you guys a quick update today. I am shooting Ryan Keely’s How To Have Sex Like A Porn Star sex seminar all day today. We are actually on a break as we speak. So I am not really going to have time to edit or upload any of the pictures from last night. But I have been meaning to post this video for a few days now so this is a perfect time.

Three friends of mine have come together in an unholy force of nature to create one of the funniest videos I have seen in ages.  My brother edited a video shot by the ridiculous Nick Gallo starring the notorious Fat Jew.  It’s called the SkinNY and is about two babes from Orlando that move to NYC to take on the big city.  Actually I should just stop talking about it and you should just watch it. It’s fucking hilarious.

In what is now becoming a reoccurring feature on this site we are going to take a look a three new music videos made by friends of mine.  We open with Trouble & Bass’ own Drop The Lime’s new video Sex Sax.  It is clearly the most professional of the three, it’s shot all over my hood in South Williamsburg,  and it kinda happens to be hilarious.  It might not be quite as hilarious as “Voodoozela” the first video from the Cobra Krames & Dactel collab, The New York Dutch Masters. The song is an ode to the 2010 World Cup ruining Vuvuzela. Lastly one of my best friends, Michael Kristoph sent me the first video he has ever edited, which is a make shift video of his band Shells playing live in a dive bar in Texas. The song is called Tulsa and while pretty far away from the DTL and NYDM songs above it will have you jamming the fuck out to their roots rock.  Enjoy these videos….

Marlon Brando. Robert De Niro. Denzel Washington. Johnny Depp.

What do I have in common with these men?  Absolutely nothing. Those bastards don’t hand a candle compared to my acting chops.  As one of the worlds greatest, if not THE greatest living actor you that I have never really acted on film before .  I did play Bambi in “Bambi” in my first grade play, my stirring cameo as Prince Charming in “Sleeping Beauty” and of course I was King Arthur in the third grade… and who could forget my performance as the Mad Hatter in “Alice In Wonderland” nearly 20 years before Depp tackled the role? But after the 6th grade plays were no longer mandatory in school and I stepped off the stage for the last time.

But as far as film goes my work has been fairly limited. I have never really found a starring role that stretched me enough as an actor.  I did take a completely silent part in a music video, as I wanted to know what it was like to convey all that emotion with just a look or a glance, without being able to rely on the power and emotion of my famous voice. Plus I did play an extra in two different porn features, but we will just ignore those for the time being…

But today I return to acting and I am giving out the goods for free.  I bet  you never thought you would be able to watch me act any time you wanted from your very bedrooms! The treat for you is almost too much to imagine. I almost envy you. TreV from The New Pop asked me to be in a short film. I instantly refused the part because the internet is clearly beneath me and he could not afford my $40,000,000 fee.  But when I found out he was looking for an actor to play a nightlife photographer from Brooklyn I had to reconsider. Could this be the challenge of a life time?  When would I ever get to push myself this far.  I wanted to know if I was up to it.

Fortunately for you I was.  I bring to you, for the first time, my greatest work as an actor.  Nay, I bring you the greatest work of ANY actor. I bring you a story of mystery and intrigue, love and loss, and both South and North Williamsburg.  Ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourself as best you can for… Halfway There.

Ps. Yeah, I posted a similar film before, but it got redited and reshot and now you have this. This is better.

I know, I know… you thought since I had gotten rid of my adorable kittens I would stop posting and Tumbling and Tweeting about them.  Fortunately I did find good homes for both of the kittens and they both got checked out by the vets and are super healthy except for some ear mites.  They have drops now and should be perfect asap.

People gave me so much shit for Tweeting about fucking cats non stop, and the funny thing was I completely held back on how much I wanted to talk about them.  Now I know what it feels like to be an annoying mother who won’t shut the fuck up about all the stupid bullshit her baby did.  NO ONE CARES IF IT ROLLED OVER! CALL ME WHEN IT ROBS A LIQUOR STORE!

Anyway, I took a lot of video of my kittens and I probably won’t subject you to most of it, but this one video is so fucking retarded cute that I have to post it. And I got places to be, so I can give you this adorable video and it will look like I actually accomplished something today.

So, without further ado, here is a video of the most stupid adorable kitten trying to brush his teeth.

(For the record, that is the tooth brush I use to clean my sneakers with, not my actual toothbrush.)

A few weeks ago I dropped some of my friends new music videos on you in a lovely post such as this one.  Today I got three new videos from bands that feature members that I love. I already Tumbled about some of these and I mentioned two of them on this blog, but here they are in living color.

First up is the Hussle Club video for “Good Morning Midnight”.  I have Tumbld about this and I might have linked to it when I blogged about their release party for it.  Second up was also released that at that party but it was not online yet. But the Death Set’s video for “Far Weathered Friends” is online now. And you need to love it. And lastly we have another video I Tumbld, “WTF You Doing In My Mouth?” by the lovely and hilarious Tayisha Busay.  I feel like you need to see them vomit glitter right away.

Anyway, I got things to accomplish. Go watch these videos for the rest of your night, or at least until you find something better to do…

So at about 6AM I was walking home and I saw a tiny kitten playing under a car tire by Avenue D.  After looking at him for a few minutes I realized he had a brother a few feet away under the other tire.  I sat down and sort of lured them over to me.  I am super allergic to cats but these things were so damn cute and clearly in not a real good position to be in.  I noticed that there was a box a few feet away and it appears someone had filled a box full of cat food and abandoned them in it.  They had escaped from the box and were hiding under car tires.  I calle 311 but all the shelters were closed.  I couldn’t leave them there so I picked them up and put them back into the box and we caught a cab back to Brooklyn. So I stayed up with them until my roommate got up for work so he could shower then I dried out the bath tub and put them in it and gave them some water and a towel to sleep in.  I got a couple hours of sleep and then got up to check on them.  They seem to be doing fine but the non-black cat seems to be a bit weak.  Anyway, I am going to take them to a shelter this evening if no one wants them, but they are so cute I figured I could find a good home.  So if you want to rescue some of the most adorable kittens I have ever seen in my life, please email me.  I need to deal with this soon because I am doing my 30th birthday party tonight.

So in conclusion, check out these videos I took of the kittehs when I found them, Tweet/Facebook/Share this post and see if we can get someone to adopt these cats, and then come to Webster Hall tonight for my party.  Remember, mention Driven By Boredom at the Studio door and you get in free!

Lolz…

As Ninjasonik says, all our friends are in bands… and this week three of my friends bands dropped new videos including Ninjasonik themselves. All of these bands are friends and it’s pretty great that they all came out with videos at the same time.

First up we have the Ninjasonik video for Bars which is one of my favorite track of theirs… the lyrics are sort of amazing.  It features a lot of people spitting PBR at each other which is always very significant and important.

The second video is from the new heroes of Brooklyn skate punk, Cerebral Ballzy.  It is a well shot black and white salute to the Subway and all the fine work they are doing over at the good old MTA. The track is called Insufficient Fare.

The last video is for Ready by Radical Outing. It features pretty much every person who is in the crowd at a Ninjasonik or Ballzy show.  The video shows “what it looks like and sounds like” to be at a “Rad Out rager”.  You guys should already know what it looks like considering I took about 25% of the photos in this video.

Anyway, all of this is awesome and amazing and you need to watch all three of these with a friend and then when it’s over give each other and extremely elaborate handshake. And then possibly throw up your 57s.
