GOOD Magazine – the LA based magazine answer to the question “why not?” – had a launch party for its latest issue on Thursday night.
The following day they let go most of the editorial staff (including Senior Editor Ann Friedman, who is very much one to watch.)
What a cheap, shitty move on GOOD’s part. They’ll never make up for all the ill-will they’ve caused here. Good riddance, I guess. Idiots.

I interviewed Sophia Knapp. Here’s a highlight.
D&T: That’s a really terrible question, I apologize, Jesus Christ.

Bob Dylan consoles the president over the disappointing May job numbers.
The part in last night’s Colbert Report where Stephen Colbert shoots Drinky (the giant drink) in a scene taken out of ‘Of Mice and Men’ was one of his best moments.

Today in the New York Times: One guy’s embarrassing Facebook ad saga hits the front page
Meet Nick Bergus. He’s a pretty cool guy who once linked to an odd product on Facebook as a bit of a joke — a 55-gallon barrel of lube from Amazon.com. Ha ha, funny, right? But the joke was on him, as Facebook’s algorithms started featuring his smiling face in personalized ads featuring the giant barrel of lube. From there, his story spread — first to his personal blog, then to Gawker, with an amazing headline. Now, Bergus’ somewhat embarrassing (but admittedly kind of awesome) tale is on the front page of the New York Times. All because he once linked to a giant barrel of lube. (photo by Stephen Mally/NYT)
