A friend of mine sent me a link to Rielle Hunter’s GQ interview, and I wound up being more fascinated by the comments than I was by the interview itself. I mean, “Hunter is definitely a bad person and I don’t know if I would fully consider her human.” I always knew that American societyContinue reading “Rielle Hunter in GQ; wow, someone actually said that they “don’t know if [they] would fully consider her human”?”

For Kathryn Bigelow: Happy International Women’s Day
Bit of meta irony – but heaps of of praise as well. Seriously, I LOVE Kathryn Bigelow. She’s the only reason I even gave a crap about the Oscar this year.

Because I have writer’s block: this one’s for you, Julio Cespedes of Mississippi State
Yeah, douchey columns in college newspapers are a dime a dozen. ONTD, however, highlighted one that is so good, even this man-hater had to put down the gun and check that shit.

There was violence and graphicContinue reading “Because I have writer’s block: this one’s for you, Julio Cespedes of Mississippi State”
