Speak To Me: David Brooks' Speech to the Delegates
My fellow Americans, it is an honor to address the Democratic National Convention at this defining moment in history. We stand at a crossroads at a pivot point, near a fork in the road on the edge of a precipice in the midst of the most consequential election since last year’s “American Idol.” One path [...]

Speaking Truth To Power: The Canary In the Coalmine (Literally)
Fight the Culture of Hate! Vincent Navarro, formerly Jesse Jackson’s senior health advisor in the ’84 and ’88 Primaries, tells it like it is over at Counterpunch: HillaryCare Failed. That’s right, folks, the experienced cynical candidate might not have an advantage over the young, hopeful candidate. The experienced candidate might have been involved in a [...]

Gender Normativity, Post-Mrs.Doubtfire Doubts, & A Drive-By Fruiting
I went to a dinner party a while ago, and it was really nice. I was camoflaged in adult clothes, and standing around with adults, chatting, and this child ran through. The child hesitated on the edge of our circle of tall obstacles, and then darted into the middle and out the other side. The [...]

There Ain't No Partay Like My Nana's Tea Partay
I’ve just been given a gift of amazingly goofy and somewhat feminist hip hop. This reminds me of my amazingly talented brother. I’d like to share it with you.

You Had Me At Hello: Sex, Power, Rape.
In castellano, as residents of Buenos Aires, who call themselves porteños, call their native language, there are about a hundred ways to say hello. ¿Qué onda, buey? which translates literally as “what wave, ox?”, and more figuratively as “what’s the vibe, dude?” is the friendliest of the bunch, and a common choice among the hip [...]
