Marriage Or Subculture? [Or Do We Even Have That Choice?]
“I feel that gay people not being able to get married for generations, forever, meant that we came up with alternative ways of recognizing relationships[…]And I worry that if everybody has access to the same institutions that we lose the creativity of subcultures having to make it on their own. And I like gay culture.” … Continue reading
Follow Up: Occupy Wall Street
This isn’t a real post, after all it’s Thursday and I’m in college so it’s Friday to me. Cue Conan O’Brien’s mockery of Rebecca Black’s Friday. Ana Marie Cox who is now back from oblivion and writing for The Guardian. Let me just say, this makes me ridiculously happy and giggly and I immediately bookmarked … Continue reading
Occupy Wall Street and “Liberal Media”
Right now, there is a large group of young people in Zuccotti Park by Liberty St. downtown. They do not like how indistinguishably linked capitalist Wall Street and Washington DC are, they don’t like that 50 of the Forbes 400 are New Yorkers while 20.1 percent of NYC residents live below the poverty line, and … Continue reading
I swear…
…I’m not ignoring you, or purposefully not posting. I just got busy writing a paper for school and realized that I hadn’t posted. In the interim between now and next post I give you a guilty pleasure of mine… Maddow Gifs =] [courtesy of morelles on tumblr]
Done with DADT
Because I’ve tried in vain to get the widget to work and it just won’t, I suggest you click this link… http://www.sldn.org/content/pages/days-since-dadt This seems old, doesn’t it? Deja vu, anyone?

GOP/DNC Jr.
I have a question. A question I’m not really sure is going to have a good answer, or any answer for that matter – For an age group like 18-24 who consumes more media that I can even fathom, how come we don’t seem to care about the issues in our city/state/country/world? How come we … Continue reading
Fancy blog revamp.
I have decided to get real about this guys. I like to write. I like the blogosphere because I control it. I’m not getting paid, nor am I paying (yet) to run this thing, and it makes me so fucking happy it’s getting ridiculous. So the blog is just my name now, and it will … Continue reading
help me? maybe?
Wanna be my editor? I’ve decided that since I want this to moderately legit on a scale of ‘bullshit’ to ‘legitimate’ that I NEED an editor. You would edit for me in all ways, argue with me, etc. There would probably be christmas presents and coffee dates (if you’re in NYC) or skype dates (if … Continue reading
I promise I exist.
I’m writing an INTENSE blog as we speak. I’m just a little busy between school, schoolwork, finding a job and trying to keep up with my news…and occasionally we’re having a little fun in there too. Don’t worry. So, patience is key. The reward is already really long and I’m not even sure I’m half … Continue reading
how much has changed.
It’s a nice day in New York City – finally. The weather is clear and sunny and breezy, so we opened the windows to our 11th floor apartment. The noise pollution near our building really ins’t bad at all, the occasional symphony of honks and sirens. Today though, it’s a pretty constant stream of idle … Continue reading
