New Years - 2013.

CNN must be desperate for ratings and has decided that appealing to the "Cougar with Gay Guy" fetishists is the answer to.

Shut up and sing...or bite the head off of a bat...

...or whatever it is that you do.

Sally Quinn Forced to Dine With Non-Fake Friends by Jonathan Chait

Quinn, a Washington Post writer and wife of Post editor Ben Bradlee, is the reigning queen of Washington dinner party culture. Her essay broadly belongs to a particular genre that I think of as a cargo cult of bipartisanship focused on dinner parties. Cargo cults are a phenomenon of tribal societies that came into contact with advanced societies, coveted the advanced industrial goods they shipped in (cargo), and failed to understand why the cargo stopped appearing when the Westerners left. They often attempt to summon it back by constructing crude, wood-and-straw imitations of landing strips, radios, or imitating other rituals they observed.

The bipartisanship cargo cult in Washington is a rather sad tribe of people that laments the decline of bipartisanship, fails to grasp the larger historic forces that made bipartisanship appear and then disappear, and concludes that the problem is the lack of dinner parties. This is, believe it or not, an extremely common belief in our capital city. Seriously. Hardly a week goes by without somebody blaming partisan polarization on the lack of proper dinner parties or, in an occasional twist, lunch.

Quinn’s essay follows the general contours of this genre, but she adds her own uniquely mortifying touches. Her mourning of the decline of the Georgetown dinner party sweeps together such disparate trends as the appearance of a Kardashian at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, Citizens United, hard times at newspapers, and the appearance on the scene of “25-year-old bloggers.” The result of all these baffling developments is that Quinn now has to have dinner with actual friends and not just people using each other for access to power:

In the past, we might have attended five-course dinners a couple of nights a week, with a different wine for each course, served in a power-filled room of politicians, diplomats, White House officials and well-known journalists. Those gatherings don’t exist anymore. Now, we host and go to small dinners with close friends, dinners with some meaning to them, dinners that are celebrations of something.

Poignant!

Novelist Anne Rice says that Episcopalians are not Christian!

Well, actually she announces that she is leaving Christianity - but not Christ - with this statement:

For those who care, and I understand if you don’t: Today I quit being a Christian. I’m out. I remain committed to Christ as always but not to being “Christian” or to being part of Christianity. It’s simply impossible for me to “belong” to this quarrelsome, hostile, disputatious, and deservedly infamous group. For ten …years, I’ve tried. I’ve failed. I’m an outsider. My conscience will allow nothing else.


Later she wrote:

As I said below, I quit being a Christian. I’m out. In the name of Christ, I refuse to be anti-gay. I refuse to be anti-feminist. I refuse to be anti-artificial birth control. I refuse to be anti-Democrat. I refuse to be anti-secular humanism. I refuse to be anti-science. I refuse to be anti-life. In the name of …Christ, I quit Christianity and being Christian. Amen.

Rice has been into her own version of Christianity for the last decade. 

Why Lindsay Lohan has to do "hard time."

And why the judge should send everyone around her to prison.

Big Hollywood points to this video that reveals the sycophantic manipulation that excuses Lohan from making people wait 11 hours for a videoshoot - costing the effort $100,000 - by assuring her that she is "hot" when she finally shows up under the influence of cocaine.

Big Hollywood observes:

Lindsay Lohan is an adult, responsible for her own actions, but take a glimpse into the nauseating world she inhabits; one of manipulation where the producers and photographers manipulate her with fawning compliments to get their pound of flesh, and Lohan manipulates them not only to hear those compliments but to lord her superiority over everyone. Lohan’s 11 hours late, which brought the cost of this photo shoot up an extra hundred thousand dollars. Here’s the result:

A Very High Weirdness Score

Billy Bob Thornton comes across as a real prima donna in this interview about his musical activities. The prima donna element is pretty clear from the way that the members of his band are squirming uncomfortably as the "boss" is attempting to tank their real jobs.



The Canadian interviewer really did a fantastic job of keeping the lid on, despite Thornton's jabs at Canada and his professionalism.

Also, notwithstanding the fact that Thornton was stoned and a complete dick, the fact that he remembered who Forest J. Ackerman was is pretty impressive.
