The New Song by W.S. Merwin
Winter thoughts perfectly composed by W.S. Merwin. For some time I thought there was time and that there would always be time for what I had a mind to do and what I could imagine going back to and finding it as I had found it the first time but by this time I do not know what I thought when I thought back then there is not time yet it grows less there is the sound of rain at night arriving...

– “Stumptown Girl.” Very well might have a forthcoming academic article in me about the myriad and obvious connections between humor and the consistent self-reflexive cred-checks we place on a countercultural sensibility in the 21st century, including Portlandia and Henry Owings’ insanely...

Recipe: Kasha Varnishkes
According to wikipedia, the kasha varnishkes dish was brought over to America from eastern Europe by Ashkenzazi Jews. This makes sense, seeing how a) my Dad gave me this recipe and b) my family escaped the pogroms against Jews in the late 1800s and moved to the LES of New York. So the moral of this story is: enjoy this delicious winter dish! My family certainly has since the days when they were...

Let’s See What’s Inside That Pretty Head via NYT →
“A Dangerous Method,” directed by David Cronenberg, is the latest film from Hollywood about mental illness. The patient, as usual in such films, is female. This is how to write about film…a delicate blend of critical film theory with historical context.
