godDAMN, there is nothing I love more than petulant absurdity. But I didn’t love THIS: Last month, believe it or not, a grown woman wrote an OpEd to the formerly-respected publication The Washington Post to beg — okay, sit down, take a deep breath, drink a glass of water,[…]

Sorry Not Sorry, it’s another blog about Aziz Ansari
Everybody’s weighing in on Aziz Ansari with their opinions! So I’m going to weigh in on Aziz Ansari and say that MY OPINION is that everyone should stop fucking weighing in on Aziz Ansari with their fucking opinions. Let’s clarify: IMHO, the rush to declare that Aziz[…]
No Pictures, Please
It happened after therapy. It happened with my friend. It happened during one of my tours. And it almost happened while running a work errand, but I put my hand up and said “No.” When I was a kid, somebody told me that “ancient cultures” believed that taking[…]
Catcalls in 2017
I’m not going to bore you by explaining what you already know: summer = catcalls, catcalls = the worst. But it’s twenty seventeen! We can’t just ignore this anymore! We gotta fight back! Don’t worry, I already thought this through. The next time someone hits you with one of these classic[…]
Paradise Lost
You know I’m #TeamCorn. Corinne Olympios was the “villain” of Nick’s season of The Bachelor. Although, in my opinion, NICK was the villain of Nick’s season of The Bachelor, but, you know, bygones. Just had a near death experience in the paper goods isle at target. It was very dramatic — Corinne olympios[…]
I Was Wrong About QALO Rings, And I Can Say So
I’m willing to admit when I’m wrong, but only when I’ve convinced me that I’m wrong. So when I first heard about these QALO rings, I did a spit-take. This commercial ran as one of my ads on Hulu and my gut reaction to it was, well, not very generous of my spirit. “What[…]
WHISTLEBLOWING *tweet tweet* a.k.a. My New Favorite Petty Hobby
Let me tell you about my new favorite hobby: So you know how the world is shit, right? Largely because of racist, sexist, transphobic, islamophobic, homophobic assholes? Well after the election I was REALLY MAD about them. I felt like they had stolen my American Dream from me! I went[…]
How To End A Conversation: Two Right Ways And One Wrong Way That Works, Too, If You’re Desperate
Ok, I love spending the day alone. I love going for walks, enjoying the parks, taking in the museums, photographing local landmarks, and taking myself out to lunch. It’s fun. I’m great company! The only down side to this is that I’ve had to learn How To End[…]
I Have To Admit, It’s Getting Better…
… the spam comments I receive on this blog, that is. Some days, it feels like the only people who even bother reading this are my mother (hello, MOM) and the spam commenters who leave stuff on my blog like : and like : […]
Damn, Am I Glad I Went To The #WomensMarchNYC
Ok, so I didn’t go enthusiastically. Not at first. My fear and distrust of the general public has increased 1000% after the election. I know that My Liberal Bubble is a relatively safe and progressive place to live, but since November 9th, I can’t help but eye every cis white[…]
Send No Penis, Please
You guys, I had a whole other post written up. I was all set to tell you about awesome stuff on the Internet and my cool new nails and then somebody. Somebody sent me a penis. In theory, I like penises! Penusi? What is the plural of penis, when it regards the[…]
