Chile con queso: one of the few gloppy pleasures left to me.
There’s such a great, reeking snotglob of misogyny writhing and pulsating in my inbox right now I’m not sure I can contain it; it could blow any second.

Sunday blame-up: the week in woman-hating
Published February 11th, 2007 in Men Hate You, Mass Media and Morsel Institute. 55 CommentsNew spamulator alert
Published February 5th, 2007 in Announcements and Morsel Institute. 23 CommentsI baked this macaroni & cheese while not watching The Big Game.
Afer complaints piled up about the mathulator and, more recently, about the secret passwordulator, I’m testing out a yet another question-response anti-spam plugin. It appeals to me because, in addition to foiling spambots, it is designed to ensure that the commenter has at least […]
The Sarah Silverman Program isn’t funny
Published February 2nd, 2007 in Mass Media, Morsel Institute and Easy Persiflage. 65 CommentsThis post about TV is really just an excuse to publish a picture of cake. Coconut cake.
The older I get, the lower the altitude at which are flying the fucks I give about pop culture. It’s true! I don’t listen to The Shins. I haven’t seen “Borat,” and have made no plans to do so. […]
Tuna on wheat: a fixed and unalterable point in the space-time continuum

Public Cans of Austin: Blue Star Cafeteria
Published January 11th, 2007 in Public Cans of Austin, Morsel Institute and Austin. 19 CommentsIt is a comfort to know that, in the event of a sudden torrent, the can designated for use at Blue Star Cafeteria by people who identify or are identified as women is equipped with a handy drain.
Although it is a restaurant, the Blue Star Cafeteria isn’t a cafeteria. Naturally this is both distressing and […]
Blamer brain trust alert 2
Published January 9th, 2007 in Morsel Institute and Patriarchy-blaming. 38 CommentsI wanted grouper, but the Fish Man stuck the fillet under my nose and said, “You don’t want this whiffy piece of crap. Have the halibut.” So I did, and glazed it with red wine, ginger, and Major Grey chutney.
Blaming pedagogue M writes in with this request:
“I’m trying to track down a good reading, article-length, […]
Remember a couple of days ago when I said I’d be splitting for a couple of days but I never left? Well, this time I’m off to Scramsville for sure. Here’s a thanksgiving dinner to tide you over the weekend. See ya Monday. Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.

Plus ça change

Public Cans of Austin: El Gringo
Published December 15th, 2006 in Public Cans of Austin, Morsel Institute and Austin. 21 CommentsStingray calls this “western kitsch,” but I fail to see what’s so kitschy about a gold spray-painted horseshoe.
I-35 runs down the middle of Austin, a cee-ment ribbon of apartheid segregating the populace according to caste. On the west side, which is never called “the West Side,” is the university, the Whole Foods, the horrid […]
