what are your feelings about lady gaga

i don’t spend too much time thinking about lady gaga. i didn’t really like her concert or her latest album. i loved her telephone music video though, i thought that was rad.

i thought this open letter was interesting. I don’t agree with every point but there were a couple of valid call outs. http://www.thevine.com.au/blog/alyxgorman/an-open-letter-to-lady-gaga20110620.aspx

I stumbled upon your autostraddle post (april-ish) about needing help making money (for AS) and looking for people to help (marketing, fundraising backgrounds), are you still looking for help in that area? or have you guys sorted that all out now?

we are in perpetual need of help! we’ve gotten a lot of help and like shit is turning around etc etc, there’s like 2-3 ppl we are working with on various initiatives (i just read this thing in harpers about the ridiculousness of the “language of work” and now i’m self-conscious), but always feel free to hit us up and by “us” i mean laneia

w/r/t the real l word, are Kelsey’s eyes ever open? is she always “buzzed” and so her eyes are more shut than not, this is something that happens to me when I’ve had one or 13 whiskeys. Were her eyes open during all the scissoring?? Important questions!

yes, kelsey’s eyes are often open. i think TRLW shows like, .005% of the waking hours in a typical person’s life. i don’t think the people who are on it even realize to what degree they’ve been eliminated and replaced by an idea because to them their entire concept of themselves is just like 5,000 times bigger than any tv show could ever be

Did you see Evan Rachel Wood Bisexual’s new alternative lifestyle haircut? First pic I saw of it she was also wearing waistcoat+suspenders.

i did, someone linked to it in a comment on autostraddle dot com. it’s cute, right? it’s cute b/c she’s just like us. she’s like “I WANT A GIRLFRIEND, I SHOULD PROBS GET A HAIRCUT.” i mean who didn’t do that. even haviland has photos where she’s wearing a wifebeater with mega-short hair and a bandana. evan rachel wood bisexual 4ever, she’s such a fucking weirdo.

what was the illegal job you had when you dumped the police man? sorry if it’s too personal but you mentioned several times and i’m just curious.

sometimes i think i’m ready to talk about it – because it was a huge part of my life, for so long, and a huge part of who i am – but i start to type the words and then i just can’t. i’ll talk about it in my book whenever i write/finish it, that’s all i know for sure as of now.

When I pointed this out to my bosses, they were annoyed by my complaints. Errors didn’t matter. Grammatical errors — be they major or minor — didn’t matter. The brainless peons who read the website simply wouldn’t notice. What mattered was getting the “product” published.


What was happening was that words were starting not to matter. The words that we wrote didn’t matter, and the words that we got in response to them definitely didn’t matter.
