About
restraint.org is a loose collection of writing, links, ravings, photos, news, fiction, and bad poetry by Jairus Khan. This website has been here (off and on) for ten years or so, and was around in various other forms for three or four years before that.
I spend most of my off-hours working (in Ottawa, Canada) to promote underground arts and media, and trying to keep independent music from being smothered by an anachronism popularly known as ‘the industry’. I DJ weekly, promote concerts/festivals regularly, make beep-beep noises in an industrial-metal band, and release CC-licensed albums for my industrial-slash-experimental-electronic project Ad·ver·sary, which sounds something like robots fucking to My Bloody Valentine.
When I’m not working with, promoting, listening to, or writing music, I design very angry websites, flyers, book jackets, and the sort for various arts projects. I supplement my music/design income (roughly enough to buy a pocketful of buttons a month) by developing counter-hacking courses and moonlighting as a web coordinator for the man.
I also bake very tasty cookies.

the bit about the eyes is my favorite. and by favorite i mean it gave me full body shivers of horror and delight. horrible delight, if you will.
OMG, I just got back from the mall!
That was hilarious.
that was amazing
Wait a second… “fell to my knees and wept”? That totally doesn’t compute… Because I thought you were a robot. And I don’t believe that robots have such emotional capabilities.
As a robot, I don’t have feelings. And sometimes that makes me very sad.
LAWL.
Ignore that and focus on the plan.
I’m doing the pop-lock routine. It’s RAD!
That was indeed pure unadulterated amazingness.
If I was less lazy I’d edit it to add a counter for every time she says “RAD!!”
Reminds me of this for some reason. More 80s awesomeness regardless: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=tqIki33mTgs
