As the American west continues to dry out, science fiction about climate change is beginning take hold. Books from authors such as J.G. Ballard, Margaret Atwood and Paolo Bacigalupi are creating a new subgenre: Climate Fiction, stories about Earth and how its changes are impacting humanity.

I’m just saying, it’s very déclassé. The cool kids are wearing otters. Not even pelts, just live otters. It’s very now.

That quote is actually an excerpt from Couderc’s new book, ‘What Lesbians Want.’ It’s comprised of 50 blank pages with the words “BUTCH” and “LEISURE” randomly inserted at the end.

I will NOT be orphan-kitty-pelt-suit shamed by you or ANYONE

I heartily endorse big-hipped women wearing bodycon dresses, in that the last time I wore a bodycon dress, literally every comment from my friends was ‘OMG YOUR CURVES’. Aw yeah. Also, I heartily endorse everyone wearing whatever the fuck they want at all times (unless you are wearing a pelt made from the skins of…

‘“If you’re a committed lesbian and you are wearing trousers all your life, you won’t want to buy a Leger dress. Lesbians would want to be rather butch and leisurely,” Couderc said.’

Or he could have put several boxes out at a time and posted a Craigslist free stuff ad. I believe in the power of Craigslist.

That FEMA trailer will be just darling once she takes a long weekend and Martha Stewarts the shit out of it.

Ok, so, story time, ‘cause I’m not sure how else I can really build the background of why this article disgusts me so much without telling my New Orleans story first. Sorry that it’s practically an op-ed but there is a lot of background to it and I’m not sure my anger makes as much sense without it because to me this…

I really enjoy the theory that Kanye West is a modern Cassandra speaking truths no one else will to the great discomfort of those in power.

He still hasn’t topped this moment, this most Kanye of all Kanye moments, but I feel like we’re ripe for a sequel here.

Ahahaha, jesus this is so true. I do not miss having 3-4 boil water advisories every year!!! And then NOLA has the audacity to brag about having the oldest water treatment plant in the country!! Yes, we know!

It’s like thoughtcatalog in print form.

It’s the “it’s about ethics in gaming journalism” level of dissonance that really insults me. I can read just fine, I don’t need them lying to me about it.

I’m assuming this lady is volunteering to have all of her own sentimental treasures and accrued wealth to go in the moldy dunk tank first. I hope she has already decided which of her suburban relatives she and her entire extended family will move in with, while trying to sort out who still has jobs and health…

THE FUCK?!? The population growth since Katrina is disproportionately white. The city has actually had a net loss of black residents, most of whom could not afford to come back and rebuild (or as she says, “reset.”) Because of what house stock was rehabbed (err...reset) and because of tourism to the city fueling Air…

So you can’t really SAY “I wish a giant flood would come and kill all the poor and the brown,” but you can say it without saying it and an editor will give you a pat on the back and the green light. Good to know.

proving, once again, regular Op Ed columnists in major newspapers are completely worthless.

Keith Allman might just be my new hero because a remarkable number of people died and the survivors seemed so helpless for so many days. The news crews could get in but somehow the government could not? It was terrible. I remember reading about the people in hospitals and nursing homes that drowned because no one got…
