DISGRASIAN’s Summer Reading: We All Scream For Ice Cream

We’ll be away from our desks the month of August, carrying on with the non-bloggy aspects of our lives, watching mindless movie blockbusters, and indulging in summery drinks made with generous pours of bourbon. During this month, we’ll be linking each day to a different website that we ♥. Hopefully you’ll discover something delightful and new while we’re gone. If not, you are a serious Captain Crankypants and are probably in dire need of a summery drink made with a generous pour of bourbon.

‘Til September, lovelies.





Summer shmummer. Guys, it’s too fucking hot in Los Angeles right now to do anything. Too hot to walk, too hot to think, too hot to blog, too hot to be nice. It is literally too hot for me to like anybody else’s site enough to send you there, so I’m breaking the DISGRASIAN vacasian rules.

Instead, I am sharing a video of a Japanese robot serving ice cream. It’s the only thing that can make me smile at this particular moment because I am COOKING INSIDE MY OWN SKIN. GOD HELP LOS ANGELES.

BIRTHDAY CELEBRASIAN!

Happy Birthday to DISGRASIAN-adjacent Djimon Hounsou. Dude, if you can wake up every day to Kimora Lee’s fab face, you must be some kind of warrior. And we’re Asian–we love warriors! So in a way, we’re kinda rooting for you. Fight on Djimon, fight on.

AMAZIAN OF THE WEEK! Victorya from Project Runway

Name: Victorya from Season 4 of Project Runway

Occupation: Fashion Designer

Known for: a sophisto-sleek aesthetic and grace under pressure (she was the only contestant that didn’t lose her shit when Sarah Jessica Parker arrived to give the competitors their designers’ challenge, and remained visibly calm when she won)

Her winning dress/vest designs just went on sale for SJP’s Bitten line at Steve & Barry’s before Thanksgiving–snap ‘em up while they’re hot!

And more importantly, let’s just acknowledge… we’ve been rooting for homegirl all along.

AMAZIAN OF THE WEEK! Will Yun Lee

Name: Will Yun Lee

Occupation: Actor

Known for: being the badassest character on the bitchinest new one-hour this season, Bionic Woman, rocking a pony (usually a DISGRASIAN no-no) and looking fierce, a memorable turn as an epileptic thief and killer on the woefully short-lived series Thief, being a Bond villain and one of People‘s 50 Sexiest, blowing away television stereotypes of Asian men by not being mute, and by speaking English, having complex relationships, and boning chicks.

Oh, and Lee is an accomplished martial artist, too, so he can kick all of our asses.

AMAZIAN OF THE WEEK! Dragon Fighter David Wong

Name: David Wong

Occupation: New York City firefighter and newly-appointed fire marshal

Known for: becoming the first Asian-American fire marshal in FDNY history, serving with New York’s Finest and New York’s Bravest, holdin’ it down in Chinatown with Engine Company 9, Ladder Company 6, aka the Dragon Fighters, and, of course, fightin’ fires.

We can’t for the life of us find a picture of Fire Marshal Wong, but we’re going to assume that he is, like most firefighters, extremely hot.

Thanks Greenie!
