  • existential non-crisis

    I haven’t been especially enthusiastic about blogging for a long time, now, and I’m not sure why. The best I can guess is that the urgency of other forms of social media (instagram and effbook in particular), combined with the built-in filter such media provides, sprinkled with a little my-work-demands-confidentiality and topped off with a…

  • PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT.

    Okay, so I know I may have some people in my friends list that buy into certain levels of right-wing nonsense–White Privilege deniers, anti-Affirmative Action activists, “Reverse-Racism” screamers, ish like that. When you step to my page, carbon-copying right-wing nutjobbery without proofreading it, don’t expect me to be as lazy with my arguments as you…

  • a collection of thoughts.

    At this point, I’ve been at work for sixteen hours.  With a little over six hours left to go, I’m trying as hard as I can to care about doing the rest of the things required for me on this shift and not simply just be a warm body, because the person I’m replacing was…

  • lavernecox: On May 29, 2014, the issue of timemagazine magazine which proclaimed the “Transgender Tipping Point” was revealed with me on the cover.

Since the 70′s, telescopes have been built on its summit, destroying the ecosystem and sacred sites. Right now, there are 13 telescopes, and now, certain people want to build another one. Except this one…

  • tumblr_ldrt97Z4gl1qb0io8o1 darrylzero: Neal Conan makes my words sound just a little bit more profound. I am such a nerd that having an email read on “Talk Of The Nation” is easily the coolest thing I could have done Reblogging myself because NEAL FUCKING CONAN, FOLKS

  • who’s going to take you home tonight–who’s going to take you home?

    I got a new job, if you can believe that. Hilariously, it’s another job requiring a level of discretion and confidentiality on my part, but not in the irrational, cover-your-ass-because-money-kinda way. Even more hilarious: I’m the boss. Most hilarious: integral to the job is learning the ability to sign, so I’ve been picking up sign…

  • i originally called this “not about the Grammys,” but it’s about the fucking Grammys, so there’s that.

    The pop music industry is such that the Grammys are even more a corporate industry circle-jerk than the Oscars are (which is saying something), so I can say without irony or pride or anything other than indifference that there is absolutely nothing significant about Beck winning Album of the Year over Beyoncé. Race might have…
