The Quick and Dirty Andrew SullivanSure, we all want to keep up with the Internet's most popular hissy-fit artiste, but who has the time anymore? Well, you're in luck. Iowahawk presents his own stripped-down and streamlined Andrew Sullivan Daily Dish blog. You won't have to read Andrew Sullivan again, because, honestly, every day is pretty much just like this, only not funny. And He Makes a Good Point: You know, Sullivan really does publish a lot of "You're great/I agree with you/Hang in there, girlfriend" letters from readers as "Emails of the Day." Like, a lot. Seriously: What's up wit' dat? Who else could get away with that kind of self-serving bullshit? Email of the Hour Update: Just got this note, which I think it's very important for you all to read: Dear Ace: You rock my world. I agree with everything you said about whatever you were just talking about. You're just so fucking cool I just can't believe it. Sometimes I think you must be some sort of mental halluciantion, because surely nothing as great as you could exist in the real world. Don't let the "dittoheads" or "partisans" bring you down. We all cherish your brave, unflinching, politically-independent voice. And let me know about that offer for anal. That's still totally on the table-- or on whatever surface you'd prefer. A ha ha ha. (But I am really serious about anal.) -- OliverW. Well, thanks, Ollie. Very nice of you to say such kind things. I'm sorry that I can't publish every nice comment or email I get, but from now on, I'm sure the hell gonna try. posted by Ace at 07:29 PM
CommentsA public service. Thank you, Iowahawk! Posted by: Dave in Texas on June 29, 2004 08:33 PM
I've said it before, I'll say it again: 1. Narcissist and shameless self-promoter Are we absolutely SURE Andrew Sullivan and Wonkette aren't one and the same? Posted by: Brian B on June 29, 2004 08:53 PM
Yeah..cause I'd do Wonkette. I mean, I might do her just to see the look on her face, but still...... Posted by: Senator PhilABuster on June 29, 2004 10:01 PM
I guess I thought fisking William Raspberry, that coddled old fool, for his review of Moore had earned Sullivan a day off. By itself, it's surely more than I at least have contributed to good politics all year long. "I don't understand," as they say, why you pass by reliably inimical people like Raspberry in order to have another whack at an unreliable ally like Sullivan. You have "a target-rich environment" filled with left idiots, left demagogues, and left traitors who are begging to be well and truly fisked. Instead you poke fun at Sullivan, who is an easy but otherwise pointless target. Show us what you can really do when you make the effort. Posted by: Doug on June 29, 2004 10:57 PM
I don't understand," as they say, why you pass by reliably inimical people like Raspberry in order to have another whack at an unreliable ally like Sullivan. As Bill Clinton would say, because he can. Posted by: Nicholas Kronos on June 29, 2004 11:46 PM
Doug, I'm more annoyed by Sullivan than Raspberry because Raspberry is a old communist fool who isn't going to persuade any swing voters. On the other hand, "independent," "conservative-leaning" Andrew Sullivan can swing a few when he makes his "surprise" endorsement of John Kerry on the October 22d episode of Hardball with Chris Matthews. Plus, Raspberry does not have a blog which garners more traffic than mine. Posted by: ace on June 30, 2004 02:41 AM
Fawning e-mail #1,374: Ace, you're like a god to me. No really, I mean that literally; I have an altar set up in my spare bedroom and everything. And while I'm at it, does anybody know an effective clean-up for goat's blood? That stuff stains rugs something awful. Posted by: Mike on June 30, 2004 07:09 AM
Well, according to that annoying-as-hell guy on TV, OxiClean will do it. But I wouldn't trust him as far as I can spit. YMMV. Posted by: Smack on June 30, 2004 08:29 AM
"...does anybody know an effective clean-up for goat's blood?" Try club soda, then rearrange the furniture. Posted by: lauraw on June 30, 2004 10:50 AM

@KFILE 21m So the campaign is collapsing due to the truth of the sexual harassment allegations. That hissing sound you hear is the air going out of the Swalwell campaign. UPDATE: No it wasn't, it was just Swalwell one-cheek-sneaking out a fart on camera Eric Swalwell more like Eric Farewell amirite thanks to weft-cut loop.
This is the dumbest AI bullslop I've seen in a while: the CIA can use "quantum magnetometry" to track an individual man's heartbeat from twelve miles away
I wouldn't click on it, it's not interesting, it's just stupid clickslop. I just want to share my annoyance with you.
Oil prices plunge on bizarre realization that Eric Swalwell may actually be straight. A rapey molester, allegedly, but a straight one.

This is super-obscure and I only barely remember it. Given that, I'll give you the hint that it's by the Red Rocker. And I guess you think you've got it made Oh, but then, you never were afraid Of anything that you've left behind Oh, but it's alright with me now 'Cause I'll get back up somehow And with a little luck, yes, I'm bound to win Now twenty people will tell me it's not obscure, it was huge in their hometown and played at their prom. That's how it usually goes. When I linked Donnie Iris's "Love is Like a Rock," everyone said they knew that one and that his other song (which I didn't know at all) Ah Leah! was huge in their area.

In more marketing for Project Hail Mary, scientists say they've found the biosigns indicating life growing on an alien planet. It's not proof, just signatures of chemicals that are produced by biological metabolism, and it could be nothing, but scientists think it's a strong sign that this planet is inhabited by something.
In a paper published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, a team of scientists announced the detection of dimethyl sulfide (along with a similar detection of dimethyl disulfide) in the atmosphere of an exoplanet called K2-18b. This is actually the second detection of dimethyl sulfide made on this planet, following a tentative detection in 2023. He means they tried to prove the signal was caused by things other than dimethyl sulfide but they could not.

Great marketing arranged by Amazon to promote Project Hail Mary. Okay not really but it does work out that way.
What? Skeleton of the most famous Musketeer, D'Artagnan, possibly discovered in Dutch church closet.
Dumas picked four names of real musketeers out of a history book, D'Artagnan, Athos, Aramis, and Porthos. So there was an actual D'Artagnan, though he made most of the story up. (Or, you know, all of it.)* Charles de Batz de Castelmore, known as d'Artagnan, the famous musketeer of Kings Louis XIII and Louis XIV, spent his life in the service of the French crown. A lot of Dumas's stories are based on bits of real history. The plot of the >Three Musketeers, about trying to recover lost diamonds from the queen's necklace, was cribbed from the then-almost-contemporaneous Affair of the Queen's Necklace. And the Man in the Iron Mask is based on real accounts of a prisoner forced to wear a mask (though I think it was a velvet mask). * Oh, I should mention, Dumas says all this, about finding the names in an old book, in the prologue to his novel. But authors lie a lot. They frequently present fictions as based on historic fact. The twist is, he was actually telling the truth here. At least about these four musketeers having actually existed and served under Louis XIV. Fun fact: You know the beginning of A Fistful of Dollars where the local gunslingers make fun of Clint Eastwood's donkey and Eastwood demands they apologize to the donkey? That's lifted from The Three Musketeers. Rochefort mocks D'Artagnan's old, brokedown farm horse and D'Artagnan is incensed. Recent Comments
