Kim Kardashian, Alanis Morissette and the Creepiest Pop Trivia Fact Ever

Kim Kardashian went to Bahrain to open a milkshake shop and police used tear gas to disperse a mob of Islamic extremists, one of whom held up a sign proclaiming “‘none of our customs and traditions allow us to receive stars of porn movies.” Meanwhile, singer Alanis Morissette arrived in Israel for a concert in Tel Aviv, […]

Capitalization and Heteronormativity?

There’s probably no connection. On the other hand, maybe my insistence on proper spelling, punctuation and grammar — even in such informal contexts as Twitter and text-messaging — is evidence of a traditionalist predisposition. And then there is the transgressive stance: met anderson cooper and his boyfriend ben at the madonna concert – they r […]

Mary-Kate Olsen’s French Boyfriend

Say hello to Olivier Sarkozy, half-brother of former French president Nicolas Sarkozy and managing director of the Carlyle Group’s global financial services division.

The Self-Dramatizing Victimhood Narrative of Lana (Neé Larry) Wachowski

There is nothing more pathological in contemporary culture than our de rigeur celebration of the hero/martyr/victim as the ambitional ideal.
