The Different Internet K-Holes There Are

by Gaby Dunn via Thought Catalog

“Tumblr Shame Spiral

TSS — Tumblr Shame Spiral (not Toxic Shock Syndrome) — is the one Internet k-hole I’m most susceptible to. If I were Rivers Cuomo, Tumblr would be my frail Japanese cellist. I am obsessed. But I made the mistake, in the beginning when I first signed up for the site, of following back everyone who followed me — rather than just following blogs that posted about my interests. So now, my dashboard is a diverse splattering of sh-t I might not necessarily care about.

It starts off innocently enough. Maybe I’ll see a photo of a hot guy and wonder what show he’s from or someone will post a funny quote and I’ll be curious about who said it. So I click through. Once I find out, I think it wouldn’t hurt to type their name into the search sidebar and see what else I can find out about them.

In a flash, it’s six hours later and I know the words to all of One Direction’s songs and I hate Finchel and I think bowties are cool and I want Sherlock to shag the bejesus out of John Watson. I look out my window at the people having fun on the city streets and I pity them.”

Let's Run Away

Fri, 18 May 2012 16:26:19 -0400

Let's Run Away:

“We sit here now across from each other at a cramped table in a cramped coffee shop. Our Macbooks are practically tongue-kissing but you haven’t even looked up at me for the last hour. Meanwhile, my fingers have stilled on my keys. I am looking at you. Your furrowed eyebrows, your intent on your task, your dedication to working and to a lightened screen when the sun shines in from the outside through a window advertising chai lattes and I have one ringing, piercing thought: Let’s run away.”

Gaby Dunn- Can you please wish my HSLP (heterosexual life partner), Isabel Lorena, a big 25th birthday? We love you and Chelsea Fagan, you always bring the LOLz, hit our lifestyle to a t, and make us never forget why were fun 20-somethings!

Working on a post about job gripes.

Thu, 17 May 2012 10:46:21 -0400

Hey! Guys with jobs! What is one thing someone could ask you to do at your job that would drive you bonkers?

For example when I was working in web design, I’d haaaate when someone would ask me to “just make that blink-y” or “make that sparkley?”

No matter what your job is, I’m looking for the most ridiculous, annoying, outrageous requests people make of you that make your life hell. Either comment or leave them here: http://gabydunn.com/ask

One time my friend and I were talking about times we blacked out while eating a sandwich because it was so good. The people we were with did not believe this could have happened to two different people. We were also surprised.

And it turned out we were both talking about the same sandwich: the coconut tiger shrimp at Num Pang on 12th st.

Run don’t walk.

I'm gonna be on Keith and The Girl today!

The Unfuckables by Anna Breslaw

The Unfuckables by Anna Breslaw:

This is a really interesting article about Tina Fey, Liz Lemon and how women treat other women they don’t deem “good enough.” For example, is feminism “we’re better than that” or is it “all women, no matter what?”

While I respect Tina Fey and love 30 Rock, I gotta say that Rachel Dratch’s treatment has always rubbed me the wrong way. I saw Dratch perform live when we were both part of the Women in Comedy Festival a year ago and she was tremendous. So so funny — and she was always one of my favorite SNL performers. (Sheldon, Zazu, the girl with the arm coming out of her head, The Lovers, her character work is stellar.) It’s a crying shame she’s been cast aside solely because of her looks.

All the people claiming Fey as their feminist icon need to re-evaluate Fey’s actual positions on women and then bow down before Queen Dratch.

Maybe In Another Universe, I Deserve You

Mon, 14 May 2012 19:04:08 -0400

Maybe In Another Universe, I Deserve You:

You just found me in the wrong universe. That’s all. This is, as they say, the darkest timeline. Everywhere else, nay, “everywhen” else — us in the Civil War, us in Ancient Egypt, us in the swinging ’60s — we are happy.

If this theory holds, well, by the law of averages, there had to be one universe — just this one — where we don’t end up together. Here and now just happens to be it. If you think of it this way, nothing is our fault.

So see, that explains everything. We’re not together anymore because of the multiverse.
