Good Luck, Guys
I wrote about TheDirty.com’s founder Nik Richie’s appearance on 20/20 for Jezebel and I wound up on his site, with his “Dirty Army” repeatedly calling me fat (first of all, real creative, secondly, they’re right—being seven months pregnant makes one a total porker). I didn’t read the comments, but my favorite part of the original post is that they’re...
This baby is very active and is constantly kicking and moving, but every once in a while she hits on some kind of nerve and it makes my asshole involuntarily contract and then I feel really weird about it afterward.
Hip Hop Blanket
Even though blankets are supposedly death traps for babies, I decided to make one anyway, mostly because I wanted to teach myself Intarsia.

I’m still waiting for the pink angora I ordered to get started on the ears, but I finished the hat pretty quickly while...
How Courtney Love Broke My Heart
I was initially upset that Courtney Love thought that I was a slut-shamer because of some post I wrote about Hugh Hefner’s engagement, and how I felt bad for Holly Madison. (It’s my personal opinion that if you get fucked in the ass by a decrepit old man—who uses baby oil for lube—for seven years, then you earned your pay day. I guess that qualifies as slut-shaming?) But that pain...
