Courtney love is getting back together you say....

Whoops! Sorry for doubling up. Hope all goes well!

I don’t know about freelance writers, but I might suggest, if there is a local college or university, inquiring after the ethnography department. One of my favorite professors in undergrad was an ethnographer who did just amazing work on trial lawyers. Someone with that kind of background may be able to guide you in…

There’s a reason God left Jesus up there on that cross: to teach him to pull himself up by his bootstraps.

For anyone interested, here’s a really great interview with Rebecca Kukla that explores a lot of the moral or political ramifications of the kind of informal policing of pregnant women’s actions this is meant to address.

FIrst of all, when I finish the philosophy PhD I’m about to embark on, can you (with your much more remunerative degree) teach me finance? Second, GREs are easy if you bone up on your math a bit.

The thing to remember, if you do start getting rejections, is 1) the school may be taking into account factors besides your obvious awesomeness to determine good fit and 2) that your application is at best a partial record of what you’re capable of.

Congratulation! The application is the hardest part, though the interminable waiting is almost as bad. I assume, based on deadlines, it’s a professional degree? Good luck!

Obviously availability and one’s own moral point of view are factors, but after years of suffering with horrible anxiety related sleeplessness, I started occasionally smoking pot to go to sleep. It works better than melatonin or sleep aids for me, without the hangover. I bought a nice little vape pen with Indica, and…

I’m unsure this is specific to you. The only thing I search for on Amazon are slightly obscure academic texts and penny loafers (don’t judge) and my ads are at least fifty percent asses.

Grammar/semantics folks help me out! I can’t figure out why this style of writing—specifically the “keeper of secrets” bit—irks me so much. It’s bathos? But that doesn’t cover it.

Can we have some sort of ballot initiative on smacking Ted Cruz with a shovel? I feel like it’s just the thing to heal the scars in the American political culture. It’s something everyone can agree on!

I’m starring this because I so want it to be true. But then I think, Americans are voting for the next president. Have you met Americans?

“A disoriented man in a bubble off the coast of Miami who was asking for directions to Bermuda.”

Still kinda jealous.

I'm sorry, are you married to Dumbledore?! Jealous!

I just ordered on on Amazon for not much money to clean my vintage fountain pens (no I’m not a nerd, go away.) I’m soooooo excited to get an especially wonderful old Pelikan up and writing.

Everyone, call your Republican grandmother. She’s about to go through a Really. Confusing. Time.

Yes Donald Trump loves the man who proclaimed: “white, black, Puerto Rican, everyone’s just a freak in Uptown.” Or, you know, would like to cravenly insert himself into a moment of public grief.
