SEX AND THE CITY PISSED ME OFF SO I WROTE A SONG ABOUT IT
It’s my own fault: Carrie Bradshaw was minding her own high-heeled business in the episode with the McDonald’s. You know, the one where she throws the hamburger at Mr. Big? Carrie was the same, lovely and steaming so hard she made the melting cheesy quarter pounder pound harder when launched through the air past her…
Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life
By now, almost everyone who loves Stars Hollow and its eccentric cast of characters has watched Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life.

The Trans Literacy Project
Last year, I got in an argument with a family member about Transgender people, why it’s important to honor who they are, and how soon is “acceptable” for them to decide whether or not they are Transgender. It wasn’t a pretty discussion, and I let a lot of anger get in the way of helping…

Life has never been what we see on television. Life off the screen is messy and tricky and beautiful and horrible and painful and sweet and hard and good. Life has never been what we seen on television – until This Is Us. And now, we see the mess of life in all it’s sweet…

KIMMY SCHMIDT. The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, that is. Goodness gracious, if you haven’t seen this Netflix wonder, to yourself a favor, and set aside some time to watch it, asap. It’s absolutely delightful. It’s absolutely ridiculous. It’s absolutely delightful and ridiculous and still somehow manages to be poignant and thoughtful. For those of you who…

When I was in fifth grade I wrote a letter to the creators of Full House…BEGGING them not to take it off the air. I have no idea what happened to that letter, but oh goodness it broke my heart to have that show leave my life… TWENTY YEARS LATER MY LETTER WAS ANSWERED. Fuller…
