What Lot’s Wife Would Have Said (If She Wasn’t A Pillar of Salt)
Do you remember when we met in Gomorrah? When you were still beardless, and I would oil my hair in the lamp light before seeing you, when we were young, and blushed with youth like bruised fruit. Did we care then what our neighbors did in the dark?
When our first daughter was born on the River Jordan, when our second cracked her...

Remember the first time you finally heard the hidden track on Jagged Little Pill in 1996 cause you were too lazy to get up and put a new CD into your boom box and then you immediately called your best friend and made her listen to it too? There are things that no matter how far away they get, you can still smell them and remember the weather that day.

If I thought January unfairly got away from me, February is on its way to being a straight up hit and run. I honestly cannot have another month like this and expect to succeed. There is exactly a week left and I’ve got to get a lot done in that week to grade February…

Dear Coke Talk: On a real man. →

On a real man.
In your last post, you mentioned men “drinking rye whiskey cocktails like they were some kind of Don Draper starter kit.” I laughed, and it reminded me of a recent conversation I had. The guy informed me that “real men only drink beer.” Coke Talk, where do people get such ideas? I told him that real men don’t give a shit what “real men” do, and drink whatever the...

The LA Times Confirms What We Already Know - The...
fuckyeahfeminists:
The LA Times has dug in and talked to 89% of Academy members and to no one’s surprise the Academy is old, white and male.
Here are the stats:
The Academy is 94% white
The Academy is 77% male.
The median age is 62.
Only 14% are under 50 years old.
Also we learned that women make up just 9% of the directing branch and 19% of the screenwriting branch.
This is why we...

whydoihaveablog:
Someone asked me my life goal the other day and the only thing I could think to say was “make eye contact with Brad Pitt.” Now that I’ve thought about it, I realized that my life goal is to someday hold a conversation with someone and not constantly divert my gaze down and away from theirs because that’s what abused pit bull puppies do, not female human beings.

On struggling with mortality.
Dear Coquette,
I struggle to accept my own morality and have become obsessed with the work of Aubrey de Grey. I am even counting on his research succeeding within my lifetime, and I think this expectation is unhealthy. I know you just recently covered mortality, and while I’m not having panic attacks, I’m still terrified. I’m in complete denial of...
What I learned today:
Lewinsky alleged that between November 1995 and March 1997, she had nine sexual encounters with then-President Bill Clinton that, according to her testimony, involved fellatio, cunnilingus, anilingus on Clinton, and other sexual acts in the Oval Office, but that none of them involved sexual intercourse.
