Hey guys! First: read this really well-done and parsed out Mashable article about SOPA (I know if you’re reading this you didn’t black out your blog, but you can still sign a petition and make your opposition known.)
Next! Let’s love Internet freedom with the next episode of ‘Why Are We Not Best Friends?,’ my UStream show. (Note: Not connected to SOPA in any way! But we’ll talk about it for sure - important issue, how could we not?)
My guest today at 5 pm EST is HelloGiggles writer and comedian Meghan O’Keefe.
Wikipedia’s down. What the hell else are you supposed to do? (Scary, right? OPPOSE SOPA.)
Super fun announcement:
A little bit ago, I wrote this piece for Thought Catalog about how I’ve never really had a long-lasting best friend. There are tons of amazing people in my life, but I always find it awkward transitioning from friendship to SUPER BEST FRIENDSHIP. How can I find a true best friend?
Along this line, I’ve partnered with UStream to do a livestream video talk show every other week! It’s called “Why Are We Not Best Friends?” and will feature me talking to a new special guest about why we’re not best friends and what friendship means to them, along with anything else that comes up. I imagine comedy, love lives, friendship queries and whatever else we’ve each got going on.

I’M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT IT! Best part is it’s live so you can all come watch it happen and ask questions/interact with the show, or watch the recording later, which I’ll link to here.
FIRST EPISODE IS TOMORROW (THURS, JAN 5.) AT 7 PM EST. MY GUEST IS COMEDIAN MYQ KAPLAN (LAST COMIC STANDING, THE LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN).
