Fangirl time!
I’ve written here before about how much it sucked that Kat Von D. got fired from Miami Ink. In retrospect, I’m just thrilled that she got her own show, based around her own shop in LA, because she’s amazingly talented, and cool, and a rock star her own self. And I’m even more thrilled that [...]

When I said that I would be around for about ten days, I was apparently not paying close attention to the guest-blogging schedule Jill sent out. It turns out my guest-blogging stint is up! I would like to thank Jill for inviting me to write here, and Piny and Zuzu for sharing their space. But [...]

In response to my “I really need to start dating Republicans” post, twice-banned troll Tony Palmyra writes: Jeff Fecke is definitely sexier than Republicans and condoms.

Doctors in Britain [...]

I’m catching up on a week’s worth of news and blog-reading, which is bringing me to a lot of great articles that I just don’t have the time to individually post on. And it’s actually rather frustrating because I have a whole lot to say about each and every one of these, but finals are [...]

When blowback pays off
This lovely little Halloween costume, “Sexy Anna Rexia,” has been making the rounds of the feminist blogs of late. Julia passed it along to me. What is there to say at this point? It’s in bad taste. It might have been fine as just a “Sexy Skeleton” costume (though why do we all have to [...]
