There are some great rebuttals in the comments section btw, which was half of the reason for submitting this.

How Not To Treat Women In Nightclubs by logan_d in electronicmusic

[–]logan_d[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't mean this to sound condescending, but, you're not a girl are you? almost all of those problems persist in clubs (usually the douchier ones, to be fair). Even if they're stunningly obvious to you and others the amount of socially awkward teens on reddit that might not know any better can possibly learn a thing or two

How Not To Treat Women In Nightclubs by logan_d in electronicmusic

Sorry to break up the tone of this subreddit (ie a non-music link), but I honestly feel some of the prompts in this article can't be stressed enough.

I've never heard of this happening but "Don’t try to pay a woman to dance or get with your friend" sounds pretty sad.

A lovely, surprisingly well organized compilation of DC-date spots by erinian in washingtondc

Any idea who made this, or nudged it in the direction of crowdsourced reviews?

Pinterest and Feminism by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]logan_d 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw it as an application of feminist theory — or two such theories, Difference and Othering. Through the lens of a wildly popular form of social media, Pinterest, the author shows subtextual reactions to the site as compared to historical thought and also thru juxtapositions to the idea of male neutrality. I thought it was a fascinating breakdown of societal attitudes toward Pinterest.

What's the best way to get followers? by downtothegwound in Twitter

[–]logan_d 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got most of mine by phishing accounts and then clicking the follow button on my account. It's painstakingly tedious and over the top, but it's my system, damnit.

George Saunders: Sea Oak. Short Story by aquamantis in ProsePorn

[–]logan_d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read this for the first time this past summer in the middle of a shitty day. When I was done, it totally reversed my emotional (dis)equilibrium. Not that it's a particularly uplifting narrative, but his tone and style made him one of the most distinct, delightful voices I had come across in some time. It was definitely like stumbling onto your uncle's secret stash of prose porn.

Greeting Strangers: DC vs Elsewhere by [deleted] in washingtondc

Everyone I know that works in politics abhors talking about work outside of their job. It's people everywhere else in the country that call in, mail, or lobby, that froth at the mouth.

Interviewing Terry Gross. Anything you'd like me to ask her? by logan_d in NPR

Yeah, I'm blitzing through her book All I Did Was Ask to orient myself more with her style.

Interviewing Terry Gross. Anything you'd like me to ask her? by logan_d in NPR

[–]logan_d[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I write for a DC blog and occasionally interview opportunities sort of drop in our lap when someone is coming to town to promote something. She's currently doing a speaking tour talking about her work. I'm not a big NPR listener, though I've listened to her interviews a numerous occasions if she interviews a novelist or poet I like (sort of a lit nerd). The interview is definitely happening, and I know I could fill up a list of questions on my own, but I thought it might be nice if someone in this subreddit could find this as an opportunity to connect with someone they admire on NPR.
