...When the red shirts announced plans to stage a massive rally in Bangkok in mid-March, taking supporters in by bus, tractor, boat and pickup truck, the Bangkok-based press warned of the havoc the rural hordes might wreak. City governor Sukhumbhand Paribatra advised residents to "please stay home," lest the demos degenerate into rioting as did a red protest last year.

...Gaga’s male genitalia are post-modernity’s most glamorous public manifestation in their use of the discourse around the text being part of the end product. And like the prevalence of Urban Outfitters and American Apparel as purveyors of the Hipster v-neck t-shirt, the video and celebrity are the beneficiaries of corporate acceptance.
