It’s not often that you see funny pregnant ladies on TV. The SnL ladies have boasted a few bumps over the years, but most actresses have to conceal their pregnancies to stay in character. Not so with Samantha Bee. Her belly has been all over The…

One of my mama friends posted this video on facebook today. It made me laugh several times, and I had not even been drinking.
artlantis 2010
Last weekend, the family and I hit the Artlantis festival in Atlanta. This is the second year for Artlantis, a showcase of local artists and musicians put together by The Beep Beep Gallery.

I have never owned china, but if Gloria came out with a china pattern that incorporated Vanderbilt blue jeans, I would definitely buy as set. Coupled with some mugs of Anderson Cooper’s face, and I would have myself one hellava Vanderbilt dinner party.
positively pornocraftic!
There is art. There is pornography. And then there is Regresty. And the combination of these elements is positively pornocraftic.
lena horne 1917-2010
She sings the kind of songs I love to sing around the house. The kind that inspire my children to ask me to stop singing.
motherhood sucks, the movie, i mean
It’s not that the theme is not interesting. Motherhood is ripe for storytelling, the way love is the endless wellspring of great pop songs. The content isn’t the problem; it’s the writing and the delivery of the story that failed here.
be a dancer, not a bullfighter
If she was pretty but a piss-poor guitarist, she wouldn’t have had such a lengthy career. Talent gives you stamina.
top that, aka, total blackmail material
During my latest trip to Brooklyn and northern New Jersey, my best friends and I recorded ourselves performing the infamous Top That rap from the classic 80s film Teen Witch. What follows is that rap plus a montage of shenanigans that most people would consider embarrassing.
lookingglass alice at the alliance theater
Lookingglass Alice is every bit as magical as the Lewis Carroll stories that inspired the play. It is a musical, but also a circus. It is childlike, but also philosophical.

welcome back, corin tucker
Corin Tucker of the bands Heavens to Betsy and Sleater Kinney is releasing a solo album on Kill Rock Stars. The mama of two told The Portland Mercury these new songs are more grown up and sentimental but still in the same neighborhood as Sleater Kinney.
sarah haskins is in love with her mop
Sarah Haskins is a funny bitch. She’s pretty much mastered the art of making fun of gender stereotyping, in particular, the media’s portrayal of women.
francesca lia block writes baby magic
It’s a wonderful surprise to find your children to be the biggest dare devils you’ve ever met. And it’s an even greater surprise to find yourself taking on the dares, one by one, to be the example you want them to follow.
regretsy: you are magni-cifent!
Go ahead. Laugh at the expense of others. They kind of asked for it when they attached monetary value to their “art.”
kristin hersh plus 4 muses
What happens to the punk rock kid when she grows up and becomes a mother? Does she put that part of her to sleep with a lullaby? Apparently not. Kristin Hersh is now the mother of four sons, and she’s still throwing muses like a punk rock girl.
