February 2011
Carefully weighing my options:
1) Go to bed now, and get a good night’s sleep for work tomorrow or
2) Play Dragon Age all night and hope that work is closed due to unholy amounts of snow and ice.
This entire city was covered with ice today.
I couldn’t walk ANYWHERE without slipping and sliding.

In April 2010, Joshua Hammer wrote about President Hosni Mubarak and the election process in Egypt. We have now made the piece available in full online.
Holy shit, I didn’t know about this:
One part of the system that has sustained Mubarak in power is Egypt’s Emergency Law, which has been in effect since 1981, the year he became President. The law has been used to jail...

Cairo is burning. So is Egypt. Twitter is exploding. Everyone seems to have an opinion—many who do have never even been to Egypt but feel a strong sense of solidarity with the most remarkable revolution in a generation, perhaps. A revolution which importantly is not really caused by Twitter or by Facebook—as much as the self...

I mean, really, we’d better get a shit-ton of snow up in this piece or I’m never trusting one of those fuckers ever again.

This girl’s dad is telling her stuff like “I want you to be happy and find the perfect guy, but you have to lose weight. Guys want a girl with a nice, shapely figure.”
Seriously? How is that helpful. No wonder she’s so desperate to lose weight. She’s been taught that gaining someone’s affection is contingent upon achieving an acceptable number on the scale. That’s not fair. And...
