– Obama and the left : The New Yorker
Some of my lefty loved ones have been so frustrated with Obama and the Democratic leadership of late. I’ve been having a hard time articulating that I when I don’t exactly agree with them it’s not because I am satisfied with the current...

– Greece fights to rein in debt
LOLzing. Okay, Greece, good luck with that. Brussels aside, everyone who has been to Greece knows it is a (fun, adorable) hot lazy mess.
Also this article is amazing. It might as well not be about Greece, it’s so full of sweeping archetypes. In related news, I...

I’ve been neglecting Guerrilla Curatorship a little, in part because I’ve been writing about pumpkins and social responsibility and shit over at my friends’ blog, Vegansaurus. They have totally arrived, which is in no part my doing.

Personally, I sort of liked Rep Joe Wilson’s idea of introducing British-style heckling to the halls of congress; totally disrespectful and out of step with American tradition, true, but their tradition is better.
