Another PSA For the Young Women

First of all, this is not advice for all young women. If the title were more accurate it would read something like: “advice for those young women who seek a sexual encounter or a more long-term relationship with a male.” That's not the pithiest title, however, so, as is usual in all things, accuracy and … Continue reading Another PSA For the Young Women →

Complaining Stoically

“Without complaint” is not an expression one can self-apply without it becoming oxymoronic. “I bear this without complaint because of my love for you.” No you don’t. You just complained! That you chose to do it in a cunty, passive-aggressive way doesn’t mean you get to complain while simultaneously taking credit for the virtue of … Continue reading Complaining Stoically →

A Career in the Liberal Arts

I have a liberal arts BA myself: in History. I got it from an excellent department in a first rate Canadian university. I was privileged to receive that education. I am a better, more intelligent person for it. The real purpose of a liberal arts education is not to give you some piece of paper … Continue reading A Career in the Liberal Arts →

Exceptional

Back in elementary school when I first heard the expression, “we all put our pants on one leg at a time,” I resolved to put mine on both legs simultaneously from then on. It only took a couple of days of doing that before I realized that being exceptional was not worth the effort. It’s … Continue reading Exceptional →

On the Patriarchy

This is a petty gripe here, I know: but what the fuck is with the “the” certain people insist on putting in front of the word patriarchy?Society, the company you work for, and your family may all be patriarchal. I am not saying this does not exist. But it has been taken one step further … Continue reading On the Patriarchy →

Male Genital Mutilation: “It Just Looks Nicer”

Today I’d like to do a quick shout out for the practice of male genital mutilation, or, as it is more commonly known under its tidy little euphemism, circumcision. WTF, people? I get that the practice is nowhere near as brutal or heinous as the female version, but let’s be clear: it is intensely painful … Continue reading Male Genital Mutilation: “It Just Looks Nicer” →

Depressed

There are those people who are suffering from the debilitating mental illness of depression. They are trying their best and telling them to cheer up and get on with life is not going to work. They are doing the best they can. Then there are people who are selfish, sullen assholes who are too lazy … Continue reading Depressed →

Artist

Late teens or early twenties. Out with a few people. Wind up at the apartment of a hot girl en route to somewhere else with a number of other people. Want to fuck her. She’s got her art all over the place. Really terrible acrylics. Close-ups of eyes; mystical crystal light refraction; and various other … Continue reading Artist →

The Power of the Written Word

I want you to picture Hitler. Now think about Eva Braun. Now imagine him eating her pussy. Look real close: he's getting right in there, sliding his tongue up into her, his mustache mingling with her wicked bush.I don't have any reason to ask you to imagine this thing. I just felt like putting the … Continue reading The Power of the Written Word →
