Twisty Battles Recalcitrance

Some sort of food at Mother’s, the vegetarian joint in Hyde Park, Austin
Hey group. There will be a real post soon, I do solemnly swear. Meanwhile, lest ye suspect that I’ve gone totally off the deepest of ends, the deal is this: I am having to adjust to a heinous new schedule. This heinous new […]

Patriarchy, Woo!

About 487 of you have written to advise me of the existence of this comic strip. If you are the one person who hasn’t seen it yet, by all means, do hop to it. It’s fawken hilarious.
UPDATE: By the way, you can all stop sending that Britney-Bush thing. I have already hurled up everything there […]

Sassy’s Survey

By way of dipping a trepidational toe back into the murky pool of patriarchy blaming, I’ve been meaning for a couple of days to post this link to Sassy Pants’ survey on sexual violence. She says a lot of you guys participated, so go see what thou hast wrought.
We’ve all been harrassed. What I want […]

Public Cans of Austin: Enoteca

View from the porcelain throne in the Little Muffaletta Eater’s Room, Enoteca, South Congress
As far as ancillary cafés attached to popular South Congress “wood fired pizza” joints go, Enoteca, that previously-discussed bulge off the starboard side of Vespaio, is Stingray’s favorite.
The fried oysters we had there yesterday, which were breaded in cornmeal and came with […]

Natural History, Part Two

Pipevine swallowtail larva, Blanco County TX, April 6, 2006
El Rancho Deluxe, the rural seat of the Fasters in Blanco County TX, in tres partes divisa est. There’s the hilly, woodsy part where the deer and the antelope play and where I’m building my new HQ, and there’s a big old flat pasture that should be […]

Public Cans of Austin: Jeffrey’s

Bleakness on West Lynn: the scrumpy washroom at one of Austin’s premier face-stuffing destinations.
Sometimes Jeffrey’s is the best restaurant in Austin, so the fam took me there for my birthday the other day. Despite the fact that super-weird appetite-supressant/Texas Lt. Guv David Dewhurst was sitting a throwed roll away, I ate everything.

There were fried oyster […]

If Not Now, When?

A Texas Rollergirl inhabiting multiple dimensions, April 2, 2006
How has it happened that time has gotten away from the spinster aunt? I keep it in a maximum security lockup, but recently it escaped. An inside job, no doubt. In any event, suddenly I’m on the go, I’m on the go, I’m on the go-go-go, […]

Aluminum Fever

Today, in lieu of blaming, I spent the day lurking on an Airstream list. The list is run by a woman named Hunter, who I liked immediately because she a) digs horses and b) she traded in her husband for an Airstream and c) she installed a Gaggenau range-top in her galley. She rolls full-time […]

Dewey Faulkner!

The website where I found Dewey is mesmerizing. It is called Classic Bodybuilders of the Golden Era. There isn’t a drop of estrogen anywhere near it. Except here.
