Netroots Nation doneness

So we’re not going to the blogger brunch today, but instead taking time for a real redneck pleasure of tubing with beer down one of our outlying rivers. One the whole, the conference was, as expected, amazing. I’m amused to see that the mere idea that liberals are getting together…

Come to my panels!

I figured I’d be up front about my desires for this Netroots Nation. I have one on reproductive rights called “Breaking the Frame” at 3PM, and if you see me wandering around with a cameraman, please come over and get your lovely mug on video talking about feminism and reproductive…

Al Gore Is Up In This Piece

Al Gore just stepped onstage at Netroots Nation, meaning that I am compelled by my contractual liberalism to post on the environment. The Wall Street Journal surprisingly opines against carbon-based environmental regulations yesterday. I am also surprisingly wearing shorts and sandals in Austin.

Pathetic

Now this is some serious smackdown, blogger style. No it’s not. Ever since I heard that they’re having this right wing convention in town as a sort of shadow “fuck you for being better than us” convention, I’ve been telling everyone I meet at Netroots Nation. Not one has heard…

We Want Happy Cars

En route to Netroots Nation as we speak, I’m currently sitting in Detroit’s airport. Layover in Charlotte, then I’ll arrive tonight in Austin. The big news around Motor City way is, of course, GM’s massive woes, and the realization that entire types of vehicles may be on their way out.…

How To Enjoy Austin, TX During Netroots Nation

Ack, I meant to get this up yesterday. There’s a lot of joys in moving (new place, new paint, chance to clean behind the couch), but one of the big drawbacks is packing takes over your life and you can’t blog anymore. I promise, once Netroots Nation is over and…

I promise, a real post later

I have much work to do today, because Marc and I are moving right before Netroots Nation, and work is just piling up. But I have a post for later today about how to have maximum amounts of super fucking fun in Austin while you’re here for Netroots Nation (or…
