Year in transition
About this time a year ago, I watched Chaz Bono on Late Night with David Letterman try to explain to America what it meant to be transgender. Letterman's hammy reaction made me clammy with fear. Oh god, I thought, terrified.
State of the Union
I don't know why I'm transgender. I just am.

Everybody gets a bike

Run For Your Lives participants braved a 5K obstacle course while being chased by zombies through Amesbury Sports Park on May 5-6, 2012.
Down with the memes
There's a jovial shit-mouthed wise-ass standing in an outdoor foyer at MIT, chain-smoking Newports and hitting on every girl who walks by.
The revolution will not be televised — but it will be turned into an animated .gif
Zawinski's law of software envelopment holds that all programs continue to expand until they can read email.
He’s not there to make friends
I'm not here to make friends. This pithy phrase tidily encapsulates all the bluster, the stiltedness, the underwhelming drama and overinflated breasts of reality TV.
