I’m trying to force myself to be more engaged with the world, which can be difficult to do when you’ve got the imaginary pressure of “must write something brilliant” when really you just aren’t feeling brilliant at all.

As the self-appointed art and film nerd of FtB, it is my sad duty to inform you that Celeste Holm died today at the age of 95. She is best known for her performances in All About Eve and Gentleman’s Agreement and originating the stage role of Ado Annie in Oklahoma! But she has a …

NSFW. Super Catchy. I want the lyrics and the MP3. UPDATE: Lyrics, censored. Because they’re funnier looking that way.

Poor Roger Ebert has created some sort of Internet Firestorm by claiming that Video Games aren’t art. Everyone is pissed off at him, which is really quite silly. But it’s interesting. PZ Myers posted in agreement with Ebert, and now there’s extreme craziness over there as well. Seriously, 3000 Comments at Ebert’s page and over …
Ashley's co-blogger is a third year student at Northwestern University who runs on coffee and snark. . At some point, she'd like to make people sit on couches and tell her about their feelings, but right now she writes in different places around the internet and makes silly faces when she doesn't know what to say. She's the president of her local Secular Student Alliance affiliate, and she is on the Secular Woman speakers bureau. Opinions do not necessarily reflect those of the Secular Student Alliance
