The best thing about The Social Network?

Making fun of Livejournal.
mood: quixotic music: Justin Timberlake - Cry Me a River
Reminds me of this review: “At my screening, when a character in the film mentioned the early blog platform LiveJournal (still popular in Russia), the audience laughed. I can’t imagine life without files but I can just about imagine a time when Facebook will seem as comically obsolete as...
The Democrats Who Support HR3

sadydoyle:
So, yeah: That “let’s redefine rape, and pass the Hyde Amendment into law, and also your insurance won’t cover abortion any more, and also, REDEFINE RAPE” act? The “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Even Though There Basically Wasn’t Any Already, But At Least We Can Save $50K on Rape Survivors Act?”
Some Democrats sponsored it. THIS IS A VERY PRECISE SORT OF...

When I lived in Asheville I always complained that most of the bands and stand-up comics I wanted to see only came to Charlotte and never my hometown. This is still mostly true, except it doesn’t matter because I don’t go to shows that often anymore. Sometimes a performer will announce a tour date in Asheville instead of Charlotte and that drives me crazy to the point where I think to...

GQ: The Last Temptation of Ted Haggard →
msavignon:
Remember Ted Haggard? The evangelical minister who was accused of drug use and sex with a gay escort? He’s back! The profile is meh but this was interesting:
For the first time since we’ve met, Ted isn’t looking directly at me. “Here’s where I really am on this issue,” he half whispers. “I think that probably, if I were 21 in this society, I would identify myself as a bisexual.”...

The Glass Half Empty
thecranium:
By Anna Quindlen Published: November 22, 1990
My daughter is 2 years old today. She is something like me, only better. Or at least that is what I like to think. If personalities had colors, hers would be red.
Little by little, in the 20 years between my eighteenth birthday and her second one, I had learned how to live in the world. The fact that women were now making 67 cents...

“I’ve never had a bad cupcake in my life,” says Bauer, CEO and co-founder of the 34-unit Crumbs Bake Shop, when asked about how his cupcakes stack up against those from stores like New York-based Magnolia Bakery or Beverly Hills, Calif.-based Sprinkles Cupcakes. “The more people in the category, the better it will be for the category.” Granted, Bauer has good...

My 75-year-old paternal grandfather had a mild stroke AND heart attack (at the same time?) about two weeks ago. Initially, I thought he was mostly okay because he was able to talk immediately afterward, but my grandmother said he’s still not acting like himself. My dad, who’s in Philly now to visit him at the hospital, said he’s kind of disoriented and forgetful; apparently he...
