A good writer makes the reader feel less lonely. A good writer makes the reader believe in her own feelings—he assures her (through fiction, no less) that whatever it is she’s feeling is True, and not a psychic symptom of being alone.
Conley Wouters, writing on David Foster Wallace. The entire page of tributes to DFW is wonderful, and good reading for the soul.

(via evanwalsh) Seriously people, just because its on 70 times a day doesnt mean you have to watch it every time it airs. Trust me, I attempted to watch every episode of Full House one summer and my mind almost exploded with cheesy-ness. And then I found out Bob Sagat was a perv. And that one really dirty Alanis Morsett was about Uncle Joey. Pretty much ruined the show for me.

There’s something perturbing about Sarah Palin’s sauciness. Maybe it is the red heels or winking or insistent (as opposed to inborn) sexiness of her mien. But it stinks of dishonesty. She’s the Brenda Walsh of politicians.
