Birthday Fundraiser Day Three -- Boys and Girls and a Bouquet of Dead Links

 

Every now and then (more then than now and more's the pity) I wander off the political dog track and write about other stuff.  Such as this minor post from October of 2007, which is notable for a few things.

First, not (much) about politics.

Second, there's a link to Blue Gal's blog from before we were even dating!

Third, there are a lot of dead links.  Cannablog.  James Wolcott's Vanity Fair blog.  The Midwest Teen Sex Show.  Susie Bright is still blogging, but has moved on to Substack.  Most of my older blog posts carry deadlinks to blogs which are no more: each a small reminder of how depopulated the once-robust Liberal blogosphere has become.

Anyway, from before the Before Time I bring you:

Boys and Girls

and Stuff.

There is no subject more fundamental, complex, or sticky with naughty possibilities, so why not ease out of your weekend with some yummy-good writing on the subject;

From Drunken Boxing Master, James Wolcott explaining how the dark lord of Fox shake-shake-shakes up a cocktail of tits and disinformation to sell it's brand of Star Spangled Wang Spanking Fascism to the droolers:

"This week Fox News launched its new business channel, a bunny hutch for babewatchers with the lovable, hapless Neil Cavuto serving as the Charlie's Angels Bosley figure. The stock market greeted the arrival of Fox Business News with an elegant swan dive climaxing with Friday's 360-point splat.
..."

To that Blue Gal's exquisite tone poetic meditation on "It's a woman/man thing. We wouldn't understand."

Which begins:

"Seeing as I'm probably already on double-secret probation from certain concerned feminist blogger's collectives... for my panties, references to titty-fucking, not to mention my occasional admiration for things George Will has said, I might as well come clean and admit the rest..

1. I love the blog Hot Chicks with Douchebags, the sole purpose of which is to deride scenes like this:
..."

and doesn't stop until you're sore in all the good places.


To the drop-forged, steel-honed edge of cool that is the "Midwest Teen Sex Show" (another h/t to Susie Bright for finding and sharing this treasure)...

...where the fearless wisdom comes episodically and hidden deep inside Teh Funny

...where you will learn all about Important Subjects like The Older Boyfriend and Gym Class (where, yes, towel-snapping will make you gay)

...and where you will find all of your War On Christmas shopping needs have been pre-fulfilled with an ample selection of "Thanks Masturbation!"


family fun-wear.

And all of this you can explore while enjoying this mesmerizing Jane Siberry video


which, if you labor in the vineyards of the blue-nosed or the tight-assed, is sadly not entirely work-safe, and which I never woulda found if whig over at Cannablog hadn't pointed the way.
