Of course, my current problem with Lana Del Rey is that I literally can no longer trust any [heterosexual??] man to give a reliable reading of the image she is portraying. (Sorry guys, maybe stick to explaining how “Born to Die” sounds like Lovage; that one seems good). …

YES. This is something I’ve had a lot of trouble with in my time.
“In a New York Review of Books article, Thomas R. Edwards describes [Raymond] Carver’s fictional world as a place where “people worry about whether their old cars will start, where unemployment or personal bankruptcy are present dangers, where a good time consists of smoking pot with the neighbors.”

Haha is that world even fictional? I’m pretty sure I live in it.

– Brandon Stosuy, “Death To Black Metal.” I was nodding vehemently as I read this. A lot of what Brandon says in the quote and elsewhere in this article relates strongly to what I wrote about in my Liturgy review from a couple days ago.

As a person who lives in a right-to-work state, I can tell you that there are so many other things that go along with right-to-work legislation, all of them generally putting workers at a big disadvantage. I hate it when people talk about right-to-work states like all they do is make it easier on workers. These laws are a net negative for working people, and I wish that was discussed or explained...

Strip club songs are
sad. They’re about paying
women to hang out.
The one time I ever went to a strip club, I had the same exact reaction. Never again.

amyrebeccaklein:
So it’s kind of weird that people are now quoting me about hating Lana Del Rey. I don’t actually hate her, although I know a lot of people who do. Actually, I can count the number of people I hate on one hand—and none of them are pop stars.
The piece that I wrote about Lana Del Rey many months…
Yes, I know—another Lana Del Rey essay? And this one’s really...

anybody else shout “I’m the lizard king I can do anything” after they do something stupid?
I can’t lie. This has happened.
I’m a fan of shouting “I’m a golden god!” under certain particularly auspicious circumstances.

So here’s a Jezebel post about an awful article that ran on the website for the magazine that I work for on Friday. Let me get this out there right now, for better or for worse—I edited and posted this article. The article was turned in for publication a few days in advance, but I didn’t read it until...

“Decapitate,” said Logan. “Then find yourselves clothing and equipment.”
“What the hell you at?” shouted Buzzard. “Ain’t this enough?”
“Tribal raid, soldier. Decapitate. They’re all right. They’re dead.”
“Go stuff yourself,” said Buzzard. “You ain’t real any more, Logan: you ain’t the Ninth. You’re screwed.”
Logan struck him under the ribs with a spear. Buzzard looked at Logan and...
important retraction / note on camp
agrammar:
The first time I wrote about Lana Del Rey, in a column, a few months back, I said I was pleased that when she invoked the name “Lolita,” she actually seemed to be talking about something like the character in the novel, and not whatever strange mincing porny thing people use that name to refer to today.
Now, having heard her song “Lolita,” I would like to apologize and mostly retract...
