Oh, my god, this is the randomest piece of political art

I've ever seen! It's AWESOME. And it's CANADIAN. And it's my own dearly beloved COMRADES (I guess), the New Socialist Group -- at least, I found it on their website.

Watch on YouTube

To those who might know (and sabotabby, I'm looking at you!) is that a real group? Who the hell are they? Afghanada, Canuckistan... it all comes together. Also, hockey is fucking nuts. As a sport. I'm just saying.

I wish there were a cricket version of this song/protest.

PS -- this is even more random, but, thanks to springheel_jack, I now have an icon he stole from the internets, of Stephanie Meyers's heavily-powdered Mormon vampire teen. Voila:

I haven't read Charles de Lint, but from everything I've heard about him, I'd like to see more of his kind of writing. From what I've heard (again, haven't read him) he would fit under my definition of urban fantasy. But most of what comes out these days is either mystery, or paranormal romance, or both. I admit I don't like mysteries much and probably never will. I do like paranormal romance sometimes, but not when it seems to be taking over the whole subgenre. I'd also stick things like Neil Gaiman's American Gods (which, unfortunately, I hated, but I'd love to see something like that from an author I do like) under the category of "things I'd like to see more of in urban fantasy." I guess really I'd just like more of a selection in urban fantasy because it really is one of my favorite subgenres, but most of what comes out these days seems to be much too similar to what's already out there.
