Cheap lobsters? Maybe? Hopefully?
White people do the strangest things to their kids…I mean, we beat the hell out of ours, but at least we don’t dress them up like dinner.
Anyway, this is not especially interesting, I’m just personally excited….
RECORD LOBSTER HARVEST IN MAINE Y’ALL!!!
PORTLAND, Maine – Preliminary figures show Maine fishermen caught a record 93.4 million pounds of lobster in...

Obsessed: Madonna & David Letterman
Boy Culture has a great piece of popculture history by way of NY Magazine: A handwritten note from Madonna to David Letterman a few weeks after her infamous appearance where she said “fuck” like 20something times and basically acted like an ass for half an hour (love it).
And it got me thinking about how much I generally like Madonna The Person, not just the pop star. And how...

Christian Republicans have the CLEAR monopoly on...
So let’s talk about Georgia State Representative Bobby Franklin.
JoeMyGod has a post about Franklin’s latest abortion bill, but I was curious about this wingut, so I dug a little further. Here’s a little list of things that Franklin has tried to get passed into law for the great state of Georgia:
Ban all abortions. Even cases where the pregnancy is a threat to the health of...

Teacher in Philly maybe fired over a blog?
So let’s talk about Natalie Munroe.
Munroe is a 30 year old English teacher in Pennsylvania who posted a blog about her students. According to her, the blog was only meant for her and a handful of her friends, but a student stumbled upon it and alerted school officials. In the blog, she makes a lot of comments that, I’m sure, a lot of teachers think on a day to day basis. One...

The new Madonna is actually not Brit...or...
Between Britney and Lady Gaga, I am just on Madonna RipOff Overload and I needed a break. But before that, let’s talk about the most unlikely heir to Madge’s Throne….Beth Ditto:
If you don’t know Beth Ditto…that’s not a huge shock. I mean, it’s not like she’s a huge mainstream star or anything. Plus! She’s an overweight, lesbian, punk...

Did you know about Mariah Carey's sister?
Because I didn’t.
I’m not a big enough Mariah fan to know things about her life. I like most of her albums before she started pandering to black folks and just did fun pop shit, but I can take or leave her vocal technique. She’s got range…great…but her interpretations of melody just bothers me and that whole whisper-to-fullvoicebelt thing annoys the hell outta me.

Speaking of bleached blondes with no talent...
…let’s talk about how there’s an opera about ANNA NICOLE SMITH!
That is in fact not Anna, but the Dutch soprano (Eva-Maria Westbroek) who’s playing her in the new London production.
I was SecretlySupportive of this idea when I first heard about it, but I wanted to avoid any public proclamations of excitement until I got more details. Well, the opera just premiered at...

In lame-ass gay news of the day...
…let’s talk about how Calvin Klein’s barely legal live in hooker life partner, Nick Gruber, thinks he’s famous (???) now.
(this will always be my default Nick Gruber image…because…yea…)
Obv. I’m not fond of this arrangement (see earlier post). It’s totally on some 90% hateration shit too because I will a) Never be rich enough to afford a...

White people are still doing too much.
So let’s talk about this white dude trying to climb a cliff in NYC:
***Before the PC Police get started, let me first say that Black people do too much also. But this picture amuses me way more than snapping a flash at my cousins taking up the whole sidewalk talking about NOTHING in front of the bodega while people are trying to maneuver around them.
Anyhow,
I was walking up Central...

My favorite R&B song of last year...
…is Trey Songz “Say Aah.”
I can’t help it. Whenever it comes on, I’m just magically transformed from a mildly entertaining, kind of alternative, slightly fashionable, intelligent gay black New York 20something….into ZyQu’ierria Foster, in the club with henny in one hand and my food stamps card in the other.
Get it get it get it get it get it.
