This morning Mr. Uggs had a link to this set on Flickr. I don’t have the same Chicago roots or nostalgia levels as my fellow preroggers, but I do love a good abandoned building. According to the photographer:
Edgewater Hospital was founded in 1929 and most of the current buildings were constructions in the [...]

After months of research (the assistant kind), writing and editing, yesterday a giant project went out the door for review by an advisory committee. While my Google Reader remains massively backed up (I actually had to unsubscribe from Perez – it’s just too much), I do have a little more me time at work. At [...]

Gravy Train!!!, Bitch and Animal, Fannypack, Peaches (more pansexual than queer, but hey, whatevs) were pretty much a constant. Anyhow, I saw this post about Athens Boys Choir on Feministing a couple days ago, and the video totally gave me [...]

I was in L.A. last week and we hit up the Fairfax flea market. In addition to seeing Agynes Deyn, the new unofficial face of converse (a title previously owned by the likes of Karen O), I overheard probably the dumbest conversation of the entire week — a week that included a road trip through [...]
The Adventures of Amazing Girl and Whimpster

One of my favorite things about Gmail involves Gchat status updates. Earlier this week, two former interns from a former workplace (who I am pretty sure are friends in real life) had oddly complimentary updates, each featuring a hipster stereotype. As our good friend M3rb0t pointed out to us earlier this week, hipsters seem to [...]

What the fuck, Johnny?
I used to joke about how you were too perfect, you must have a dead mistress buried in your yard. WAY TO MAKE MY JOKE TRAGIC, DICK.
I mean, I’m typically not one to judge celebrities for their personal flaws or mistakes (unless you’re Fergie, Jared Leto, or generally some sort [...]
