Oh, man. This is too sweet. An Onion-type headline made real:

Actress With Down Syndrome Mocks Sarah Palin’s Outrage at Character With Down Syndrome: Actress then explains sarcasm to former VP candidate… sarcastically.

Far and away my favorite news item of 2010. Faith in humanity, temporarily restored. She works at a law firm. Does some acting gigs on the side. From the sound of it, she’s better-adjusted than, like, half of us. Good for her.

We’re so used to hearing from the PC Police as a crazy phenomenon of the left. But wingnuts do it, too.

This.

““Let me make a point,” Herr told Fast Company. “Eyeglasses — it’s a fucking sex apparatus. Often people can have contact lenses, but they choose in certain social environments to wear their glasses, because it looks hot. People put glasses on to make themselves look more intelligent. To augment their appearance, not just their performance.””

“In the aftermath of disaster, we are reminded that life can be unimaginably cruel. That pain and loss is so often meted out without any justice or mercy. That “time and chance” happen to us all. But it is also in these moments, when we are brought face to face with our own fragility, that we rediscover our common humanity. We look into the eyes of another and see ourselves.”

- Obama for Newsweek, on Haiti.

“…if Katie Roiphe is underwhelmed and unoffended by the sexually neutered males of Brooklyn fiction, she should check out this vast cultural wasteland called the internet. The best writing about sex is currently being done by the people who are smart/stupid enough to date and write about it. Dating wasn’t even really invented until the 1950s, it’s no wonder nobody knows how to do it.”

- Molly Lambert on Manhood (via tylercoates)

This.

Also, Molly references this quote, which has made my day even though it is only 10am, saying, “The best advice I have ever heard about sex, romance, and masculinity is from porn star/P.T. Anderson muse John Holmes:”

“You don’t have to be overly macho. You don’t have to be over-complimentary. Gain her respect. And that’s treating her as an equal. Don’t bullshit her. Treat her as a human being. Treat her as you would treat yourself. As soon as you have that respect from her, she’ll treat you with the same respect that you show. Then you fuck the shit out of her.”
