Should we have some affirmative action for bloggers?

Hey, nice HTML fuck up.

My favorite blogger is Pam Spaulding, at Pam's House Blend. So there.

Zero Bids For Seattle’s automatic toilets, on eBay for $89,000.

Hold on -- I thought we were renting those.

And meanwhile, in Tennessee, a deranged gunman lets loose on a congregation during a performance of "Annie" (careful, Kiley...it may seem justified on these grounds but is not!), screaming "hateful words" (yet unidentified) about the church's support for gays and women and killing two.

Here's another one for the morning news.

Gunman opens fire in UU church in Tennessee because of it's liberal views. My folks have been to that church.

Ugh...this whole drying up of the loan market sucks, especially if you're a student in need of private loans.

the tennessee gunman hated liberals, news reports say, because he believed they prevented him from getting a job. like chris rock says, ain't nothin' more dangerous than an unemployed white man!

At the seminar “How to Take Names and Be Taken Seriously as a Political Blogger,” many women said that their male colleagues and major media groups tended to ignore them, and to link to them less often (unless they are Arianna Huffington). They pointed to the Netroots Nation gathering (formerly known as Yearly Kos) for politically progressive bloggers, occurring that same weekend in Austin, Tex.

While I understand that women face discrimination in the realm of political blogging, maybe it would have been more beneficial for them to go to the Netroots Nation conference instead of this other thing?

@9,

I think ECB is more pissed off about that article appearing in the fashion section of the NYT.

Yeah, what is up with that?

I am one dull, frumpy, unfashionable, anti-style, anti-designer kind of guy, but I continually find interesting cultural/political things to read in the NYT's "Fashion & Style" section, and never quite grasp why they were in that section of the website.

I just checked, the top article in that section is about... triathalon deaths? And environmental awareness about driving gas guzzlers?
