I've been really into Me Like Bees lately. They are a little bit like Jack White, Modest Mouse, and a tiny bit like Cage the Elephant (or at least I think so) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqMb-CT48Yo -Ra Ra Etc. Also the Raconteurs have entered my life and I don't see them leaving it anytime soon. I love their sound. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ89GcR-gGY -Together http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkD-xIUYPq8 -Steady as she goes

I think the simplest way to say it is just to ask yourself three questions: 1. "Do I want others to see this?" 2. "Would this be helpful for other people?" 3. "Am I proud of this content?" If you answer yes to any of these questions, chances are it would be good to post. If you do not, maybe you should try to revise your work so you can say yes to one of these questions.

Think of it this way; if you feel guilty, why? If it is because you're privileged, there's no point in degrading yourself, that's not helping anyone. Instead, try and help someone who isn't as privileged. If you are rich, contribute to charity, if you are well off and have time, volunteer at a soup kitchen. Use the privileges you have to help out the less fortunate.

My favorite is the "Can the ice be a little warmer?" one. I just imagined the next picture being a polar bear drowning...
