Pinko Magazine Hedonism + Activism

So we got a little caught up in Super Tuesday, a dozen posts in a row or something like that. We’ll be returning to our careful and delicate balance of politics + vegan cupcakes + hot people in their underwear. A few thoughts today:

** Closing out our election coverage, you can review our entire sad effort to chronicle hot people voting. They don’t, I guess. Our quick take is that Obama won more states and more delegates, which according to Hillary Clinton now makes him the “establishment” candidate and she the plucky DC outsider insurgent. Ummmm. Yes. This came from a memo by her pollster and lead strategist, Mark Penn, who as recently as October was doing PR work for predatory sub-prime lenders.

** Lots of retarded dedicated voters tried to vote yesterday in states where there was no primary. Ooops!

** I totally had dinner on Friday 10 feet from Sandra Bernhardt. She was surprisingly sedate and looked good and was eating the seitan stir fry at Blossom, which is a good choice. She was with several women none of whom were Madonna or batshit crazy Roseanne Barr (who she totally made out with on TV in the mid 90’s) so it was only mildly exciting.

** We’ve been so caught up in the primaries that it completely went over our heads that Britney Spears is locked up in an insane asylum.

** Also I learned this week that R.W. Knudsen makes an all natural gatorade alternative. I like it. It is good. It replenished my electrolytes after a vigorous 6 minute run.

It may be a quiet day or two here. Stirling is about to get fired  really busy at work and I have to show my parents around New York City and try to stop my mom from getting another tattoo. We’ll post as we can, although we certainly welcome contributions! Also a teaser: We have a couple nice features coming up on shopping for un-blood-splattered diamonds … the worst re-branding ever in the history of socially-responsible businesses … the Top Ten People We’d Like to Waterboard … and a report from the front lines of fashion week. We’re on it.
