The Angry Stripper Outed (?)
Today the Houston Press published a blog post by Richard Connelly about stripper blogger/tweeter @AngryStripper (Sarahtress), with what they seem to think is the bombshell revelation that a stripper is also a journalist working for the local daily. But really. How closeted is a stripper who posts face photos and whose Twitter profile lists something close to her real full name? Read the rest at...

A Stripper's Guide to the Sweet Sixteen; or, Who...
Major sporting events have an unquestionable impact on local businesses, and the sex industry is right up there with hotels and restaurants when it comes to cashing in on sports tourism. Witness the annual “100,000 Prostitutes Expected in (insert host city) For Super Bowl” articles, pictures of athletes making it rain in strip clubs, and the resulting arrest reports. And when it comes to college...

One of the male staff just told me that on their email backchannel (I know) I was on their list of most bangable dancers in the club.

What do you think my life is *like*?”* *not like anything where having the staff of the titty bar wanting to bang you is...

So last night some guy slapped me on the ass when I was walking back from The Men. I grabbed his badge lanyard to yell at him (I have poor impulse control and anger problems. Also, he was skinny and drunk) and it came off in my hand, so instead I just took it home with me. lo and behold he works for [organization where I know people]. Saw his boss today at the Convention Center, told him the...

THE EATBEAT: Long-awaited Olive Garden receives a... →
After a lengthy wait for Olive Garden to open in Grand Forks, the lines were long in February. The novelty is slowly wearing off, but the steady following attests the warm welcome. My first visit to Olive Garden was during midafternoon, so I could be sure to get in. After a late breakfast, I figured a late lunch would be fashionable. The place is impressive. It’s fashioned in Tuscan farmhouse...

Also it's probably a little esoteric.
The Ransom Center is part of the same institution that brings you this: Also, such an acquisition would help with the gender imbalance. alexbalk: I want to make a “Ransom Center acquires Tavi Gevinson papers” joke, but I can’t find a way to make it not sound mean-spirited. Which it is not. Against Tavi, at least.
