I have this idea for a thing (probably a tumblr post, duh) where I change all the lyrics to LCD Soundsystem’s “Losing My Edge” so that they’re about blogging, or just like the internet world, and it’ll be like “I was there when Gawker had ten commenters” or whatever.

For whatever reason I’ve got a lot to get off my chest about this Gawker/Tumblr/HRO polemic, and yet I don’t really feel comfortable opening my mouth, since despite the fact that it expresses a sentiment I always find pretty disagreeable—that of a dangerously self-congratulatory elitism—it’s…

I feel like Google behind a paywall makes more sense than NYT behind a paywall. Not that anyone has floated that yet (that I know of).

The Real World Is Over Now
One of my two “final” college projects was this essay about ‘representing the self’ and Tumblr. It was written for the English department. I also wrote a reported feature about Tumblr, the company, for the Journalism department (or institute, or whatever). More on that later. Just thought I’d put this somewhere in case I ever want to link to it. A PDF is here. I...

tesslynch: She Who Will Not Be Named is a perfect example of a person who has experienced unbounded hatred and tearing-down; since I can’t name her, I hope it will suffice to say that she is a person who embodies a figure who’s aware of every single nasty thing said about her, and whose feelings obviously get demolished on the regular. The website dedicated to all of her missteps...
