This is a safe space to say nice things about punk rock dads with doctorates. 

My “Thirtyish” column in The Grid (a Toronto weekly magazine that in formulation is like halfway between the Village Voice and New York mag) is about obsessing over Twitter followers, featuring Twitter class president Alec Sulkin, and what to do when your boyfriend likes you more than you like him (answer: appreciate.)

Read it here.

I like it the best when you can’t tell if someone is married or has kids because their home life is not an incessant part of their daily talking-to-me narrative.

-- Me

Monday/Tuesday: What do you want from me? Nothingggg.

Wednesday: 1+1 column in the National Post is about my dual obsessions with my hair-cutter (who is a beautiful famous but who I will not name for “stay away from my man” reasons) and my future, perfect (future-perfect!) hair colorist.

Thursday: Thirtyish column in The Grid is about how to accomplish something by failing over and over, featuring Chris Gethard from The Chris Gethard Show, and Jonah Lehrer.

Friday: Girl News column in VICE is about Girl Rules, rules for girls, rules of girls, etc. Just not “The Rules.” Don’t be retarded.

Saturday: feature in the Globe and Mail is about why ebooks are marketed so shittily. It features interviews with Emily Gould, David Balzer, Evan Munday (look all of them up) and a few Official Publishing people.

Is this new? And if so why is it a direct rip of those Missoni ads from the early ’00s?

Here’s my newest VICE column, about Girls and Hair. Currently I am doing a ponytail with a red ribbon in a bow, and shut the shut-up about it.

did she text this article to vice while driving to the tanning booth?

--A comment on the Vice site that my friend emailed me. 1) I WISHHHHH 2) Stop the fuck emailing me about the comments on websites! I don’t give a quarter of a fucking shit! Except when they’re hilarious, then I do, definitely.

You know what a “Brazilian” is, I bet. Let’s congratulate ourselves for popularizing a vulvic hairstyle while your nation still doesn’t know the difference between Mitt Romney and that other guy.

-- I’m smart.

Only reblogging this because I follow so many model-y fashion Tumblrs that sometimes I forget what a body I am sexually attracted to looks like.

Probs can’t read this but it says that when I grow up I want to be a “free-lance writer” (or “a judge” or “take over my dad’s business.” Since I have no legal or economist-ing-skills I think I chose right).

Also sometimes “boys are nice and cute.” Sure, Lil Kate.
