Courtney Love is a national treasure.

I sort of love that Peter King is retweets people who go by the name of “blumpkinfarts.”

The Trapeze Swinger by Iron and Wine

I’ve probably posted this song here previously, but I don’t care, it’s one of those rare songs that’s worthy of being posted multiple times on the internet by anyone without ever really becoming obnoxious. Perhaps oddly, I listen to it whenever I miss my mom, as I do today, probably because the lyrics sort of invoke memories of a rural Southern childhood, and listening to it always makes me miss her more, but whatever, I don’t care. Sam Beam is this generation’s Bob Dylan. A true musical poet.

Republicans Considering Ideological Purity Test for Candidates

Gotta kick all the pussy-ass moderates to the curb, you see.

They’ve cloned her. God help us all.

Nite and Day by Al B. Sure

The first concert I ever attended was a New Edition/Bobby Brown/Al B. Sure triple feature in the Superdome. Earlier tonight I found myself thinking, “I wonder what happened to Al B. Sure.” Turns out her just released his first new record in over a decade and is dating one of the broads from Real Housewives of Atlanta. Go figure.

I can’t you guys how excited I am to have snagged the “Cunt Cancer” user name tonight on Twitter. I’m not sure if I’ll ever use it for anything, but hey, it’s a good card to hold in your hand just in case, no?

Marriage is a horribly antiquated social institution, so why is Tumblr, a blogging platform synonymous with drunken, awkward, unprotected geek-sex, promoting it?

“Winter Coats” by Better Than Ezra

This one of my two favorite songs off of “Artifakt,” a barely-known collection of BTE B-sides.

Discarded, left behind
Paper-cups and sour wine
Candlewax, tablecloth
Try to wash, it won’t come off
Ticket stubs and movie scenes
Dustin hoffman has gangrene
Ferris-wheel in the park
City lights after dark
Well I’m goin’ home when I find the girl
Makes me forget what I should have done
In winter coats
