Art Crawl!!!

Jimi Hendrix isn't a real rock musician. . . .

Tom - so sorry things suck today. Let's hope it gets better.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

My boss just came in, looked out over the emptied Zuccotti Park, and said, "Nice!"

I just read some blogging about the clearing of zucotti, it sounded intense.

I'm at the airport. I hate early morning flights.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Ugh, Tom. Electronic hugs & hairpats.

Allyson, I think you won the argument. But you're fighting an unarmed person who doesn't know how irrelevant his opinions are.

I need to get my column in this morning. Half-way done. Why are 500 words so hard to write?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, Tom. I am so sorry. Be easy on yourself, and just get through the day. One task at a time.

If your point is that sometimes men bend backward to create weirdly arbitrary rules in order to discount the accomplishments of women (you can't count as a musician if you sing = you count count as a philosopher if you type your papers in Times New Roman?) then you've made an excellent point, and I agree.

Fuck that dude, Allyson wins.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"Fuck that dude" seems a pretty good place to start and end...

Happy birthday, sumi!

Good luck, Tom. I hope the day goes faster than you expect.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy Birthday Sumi!

I am so sorry, Tom. I wish your life was being even a quarter as awesome as you are, because then it wouldn't suck at all.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

But I cannot stop until he concedes!

Heh. I know. I know.

Happy happy birthday, sumi!
