Wednesday Linksitosis
1) Aaahahahaha, I made you look at a penis snake! Although, actually, according to Grist, “this thing is not a snake (or a penis) but actually a caecilian, which is a type of legless amphibian. Engineers in the Amazon discovered it while they were trying to drain a portion of the Madeira River for a hydroelectric…

James Deen’s Female Fandom Phenomenon
A few interested commentors and Tweeters have mentioned to me that what they find remarkable about James Deen isn’t, as I had hinted last week, that he’s being treated differently by the media than female stars who want to “cross over” to “mainstream” entertainment, but that he’s gotten to where he is because of his…

The Reddit Rape Thread: some thoughts from a victim
I was gonna do what I usually do and post some image I find on Google Images on the topic of silence about rape. I even Google Image searched “silence about rape” and found some powerful images. But I decided, instead, to post a picture of myself. Because guess what, world: I’ve been raped. And…

My Uterus

James Deen: The Next (or first?) Crossover Star
You all may have noticed that there’s been a lot–a LOT–of coverage of James Deen in the “mainstream” media lately. He’s apparently costarring with (but emphatically NOT SLEEPING WITH) Lindsay Lohan in an upcoming movie, The Canyons, and this (maybe it was this–he’s been a subject of fascination for a while now) seems to have…

La-La-La-Links-de-Yay
(I’m assuming you know you’re supposed to sing the title of this post to the tune of Ta-Ra-Ra-Boom-De-Yay. If not… well… do that.) Anyway, guys, lots of stuff to report and not much time for reporting it! Here goes: 1) The 8th Circuit federal appeals court just upheld a law in South Dakota requiring abortion…

Randy Reading Time
I’m in a pretty hardcore stage of rereading and editing my own work right now, guys. Revisiting old projects, finishing unfinished stories and projects, and generally not putting much energy into making new things. In this frame of mind, it’s difficult to think of things to blog about. I’m working on two articles for WHACK!…

Poetry, Poetry, Poetry
I’m going to go ahead and post a poem. Because I spent all weekend reading and listening to poetry at the Second Annual New York City Poetry Festival on Governor’s Island, and dammit, this shizzle is fo’ rizzle! (That rhymed! Ah, poetry is everywhere!!) Broad Strokes I will never rip a single bird from among…
