THIS CHARMING MAN, AN INTERVIEW WITH PETE WENTZ
OUT Magazine

Upon finding this article online, I was mildly repulsed by the formatting and lack of punctuation that have resulted from a 16-year stint online, so I attempted to neaten the whole thing up as a way of archiving it, especially since you never know when a site update will kill it's readability for good. Not like my site is the most reader-friendly thing in the world, but at least if you copy-paste it, it's less glaringly hard to read. Click anything in this box to see the whole thing!

AUSTIN GAY RIGHTS MARCH PHOTOS
University of North Texas Digital Libraries

Found some images of a 1989 gay rights march going down to the Texas State Capitol building in Austin, TX! Unfortunately there's no identified photo-taker... it's funny to see that straight people have been called "breeders" since the late 80s though!

A LONG TIME COMING... "DEATH TO THE GREAT HATED JAR JAR BINKS" HOARD
Multiple Sources

I was reminded recently about my duty to archive some pieces of internet history that helped spur the creation and aesthetic of this website... my dad's hate site for the Star Wars character Jar Jar Binks. I'm also going to dive into some other related sites he interacted with for any additional interesting finds.

Is it just me or does this guy in this gay pornography ad look like Cillian Murphy?

PETE WENTZ
Multiple Sources

I haven't spiraled too much about it here, but I have a very deep fondness and kinship with Pete Wentz, especially the 2005-2009, emotionally unstable, passionate, homosexual Pete Wentz. And as I was exploring the Queer Music Heritage archive, I wanted to see if there was any mention. And, indeed, there was, coming from a couple of sources!

This is one I found while hunting down something else, but it gave me a chuckle and I saved the page :P

MACHINE SLEEP BY JAMES R. BERRY
Mechanix Illustrated, Vol. 62, No. 461, October, 1966.

I actually found this tucked away in a used copy of a book titled "The Psychology of Sleep" by author David Foulkes, printed in the same year. As a psychology student I was quite intrigued, and it's even stranger that I can't find any paper trail on the outlined experiments. No research papers published, I can only find further information on a couple of the mentioned researchers. It's something you get jazzed about archiving, especially with the file drawer effect in psychology, where only the stuff that ends up being true and useful is remembered. These guys tried to electrocute sleep into people! And it's important to be able to learn from their mistakes! *cough*Elon Musk Neuralink*cough*
