Harassment Post Coming Monday

I’m collecting some more data.  This has turned into quite a deep post.
Meanwhile, I am amused at the # of hits I continue to get.  And now from encyclopedia dramatica!  Keep linking to me, guys!  I’ve been trying to convince advertisers to buy space on my site.  These starts are going to guarantee it!  hee [...]

We Broke A Record

According to WordPress I’ve had over 11,000 hits today, making it my best day ever since this blog started!  I’m really surprised since the best day I had previously was in February 2007 when I put up the Barack Obama Church Post of DOOM (10,000 hits that day, but closer to 11,000 for the 24 [...]

Now Look What You’ve Done

Apropos of my post yesterday:

Yep, that’s about the shape of it.
(also, Sinister Cat an awesome comic and you should read it all the time.)

What Rachel Moss Did

This past weekend I was in Wisconsin for the WisCon convention. I have a lot of posts to write about that, including some ruminations on panels and some stuff about POC at WisCon. But this post is about something that happened during the convention that is contributing to my angry blackness and making [...]

Hillary’s behavior has left me speechless

Hillary raises RFK assasination as a defense for extended race. When I said this woman could kiss my ass? I was being too polite. It’s ugly enough that she said this shit, but to say it the week Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with a brain tumor? Is that how we’re doing things now? And her [...]

Sexism, Chivalry, and POC communities

So one of the things that’s been working my nerves this election cycle has been the rush to paint every single bit of language uttered by Obama that could be gendered as proof of his being sexist. The furor over the word periodically was wacky enough (as was the hype over him saying the claws [...]

California Love

Was going to post something morose about Edwards endoring Obama. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a good thing, especially given that this looks like the runup to an Obama/Edwards ticket. I like Edwards; he quit too soon. But I can’t help but reflect on the fact that not so long ago I [...]

The In’s and Out’s of Catcalling

Catcalling– creepy or a compliment? You know I have yet to experience catcalling that felt the least bit complimentary. In fact I generally find myself wondering what possessed the guy to think the comments would net good results, or I get annoyed enough to tell the guy off for being disgusting. On occasion (like when [...]

So…Hillary Clinton’s stopped hiding her racism

Clinton touts support from ‘white Americans’ It looks like she’s decided that if she’s going down she’s taking the party with her. I mean there’s no other reason I can come up with for her to essentially say that white votes are the only votes that really matter. Bets on how long it’ll take her [...]

On politics and why I haven’t been blogging them lately

So when ABW invited me to become a regular contributor I did so with the understanding that I would blog about the political scene that had her so disgusted. At the time I was absolutely engaged in the process and watching news coverage of the primaries and caucuses like a fiend. Now, I can barely [...]
