Liaisons, or sites you
must read
Any one of these sites always provides me with enough energy to keep
my self-righteous and admittedly arrogant perspective. They're all
fine pieces of work, all updated often, and all sufficiently bitter to
allow me the belief that perhaps everything isn't going to Disney after
all...
Journaling things with an off-straight tone
Planet Soma
This is probably the only website I will actually call up multiple
times in one day. Dave, the site's owner, has enough angry invective
to make any yuppie crawl in shame, enough decency to appreciate Chick-fil-a,
and a wonderfully healthy desire to bring down gay America from its A&F
high.
Stapled or Bound
Sis started writing. Very personal, self-exposing thoughts. I love my sister more than ever.
Bringdown
I pass as someone angry and bitter. This fellow doesn't pass--he embodies.
I'm particularly fond of his Artistic Prison and his Moron of the Month
feature. This is, as he puts it, "your online resource for relentless negativity."
Blithe House Quarterly
Smart lesbian and gay fiction and poetry. Still haven't found
any stories that annoy me... That is a good thing.
Ron's Log
So he rides bikes, likes big engineering projects, has a thing for Macs and toys,
appreciates handsome men, travels, and has opinions. What else could you look for?
District of Calumny
Crossing
the River: Race, Geography and the Federal Government in Anacostia
I became even more fascinated with the turbulent history of the District
of Columbia after reading this thoroughly researched exposition of the
history of one of DC's most lambasted areas. I must admit that after
biking through Anacostia I couldn't help but notice that a crime-ridden
area can still be beautiful in a whole new way...
DC Darkside
It has finally been revived. My friend Adam had a book in his living room called Washington
Undercover, a 1950s pulp fiction
exposé of DC's seamy underbelly. It made for great comic relief. DC
Darkside does just the opposite: in exposing the ugly side of DC it brings
out the sense of ominous reality that the marble-faced monuments hide
from the omnipresent tourists.
