The Retweeting of Barbara Walters

It’s been over a year since we last checked in with my best girlfriend Barbara Walters and her fascinating Twitter account, so I’ve decided to pop by and say hello.

As soon as I logged back onto Barbara’s twitter account, I could tell she’d been busy getting reacquainted with some gal pals of her own.

Met yesterday in Maryland with my old friend, great woman, Mrs. Anwar Sadat. It bought back so much history.

Babs shows no sign of retiring, but the workload does her get down just like any other girl.

Big mtg today with the team to talk about the Royal Wedding. Too much homework to do this weekend.

But she still enjoys her recreational time.

Going to the Ralph Lauren store for private shopping. Will spend too much money.

That is, when she’s not saving your life.

I will save your life. Watch my special tonight "A Matter of Life and Death" 10:00pm on ABC.

Yup, she’s still doing those specials. And her teasers for them can be downright enigmatic at times.

What do Letterman, Pres. Clinton, Robin Williams and I have in common? Watch my special Friday at 10pm on ABC.

Sometimes her life is to important for us mere mortals to understand. But don’t worry, she’ll break it down for you.

Am going to a dinner for the Pres.of Georgia.not our Georgia Serious stuff.

Even her to-do lists sound like beautiful haikus.

Just left GMA. On Bill O Reilly tonight. Sun. The real thing. Then I can sleep.

Her moods can turn on a dime.

My holiday special did great. Thank u for watching. Out holiday shopping bah humbug

She sure does have a lot of adventures.

Off to Wash. For the 'ennedy Center honors. Sitting on train behind Sting. Nice man

But at the end of the day, she’s still the same humble woman she always was--

Lunched with Prime Minister of Australia. The View is big there. Really big.

Oh Babs, you'll never change.

A List of People Who Can Go to Hell Now That I Can't Have Elizabeth Warren

So today was a rough day for everybody who isn't a @#$%-ing #$%hole. Let's just start there. If that upsets you, by all means, go straight to hell. This entire rant is going to be exactly what it sounds like. I am mad and I am going to exercise my right to BLOG ABOUT IT LIKE IT'S 1995, SO BUCKLE UP, BUTTERCUP. I really don't even know where to start, so let's just jump right in with the first person who comes to mind. Bloomberg, go to hell.  You really didn't have anything specific to do with today, but you can just go to hell for spending an ungodly amount of money on literally nothing.  I mean, you could have lit millions of dollars on fire and at least warmed the hands of the homeless, but instead, you made tv stations across the country that are already owned by Conservatives rich, so kudos to you and go to hell. Amy Klobuchar, I STUCK UP FOR YOU AMY.  I got into FIGHTS on SOCIAL MEDIA while DEFENDING your sorry, self-interested ass.  You know ...

Theater and the Outbreak

After last week's interview, a representative from a theater that recently experienced the results of opening too soon reached out to speak with me. I want to thank this person for coming forward in the hopes that it'll change some minds about what's safe and what isn't when it comes to the performing arts. Here's the interview: ME:  So this wasn't a full production or-- THEM:  No. It was us trying to do a little something for friends and donors. ME:  Who is 'us?' THEM:  The board of _____. ME:  And how long have you been on the board? THEM:  Three years. ME:  What was this going to be? THEM:  There's a, uh, beautiful park here in town, and we wanted to do an outdoor performance of a Shakespeare as a benefit, because, as you know, theaters are having a hard time right now paying the bills. We checked with the local government and the health department for the state to make sure we were doing everything the way we needed to in order to keep everyon...

People You Know Are More Important Than People You Don't Know

This post is in response to arguing with people--straight and gay alike--about a certain celebrity, whether or not she's an ally, if she's pandering, if pandering matters, and whether or not I'm an asshole. The last part is probably an enthusiastic "Yes" but let's reflect on this for a bit anyway without actually giving more time to an argument about a person none of us know, which is a crucial part of what I want to talk about. People you know are more important than people you don't know. I realize it's tricky in an age where we've never been closer or more engaged to our celebrities to keep in mind that we do not know them, they are not our friends, and while we may love them and stan and feel like we're attacked when they're attacked-- That is not true. That is not real. They are in no tangible way connected to us. Now, as someone who is obsessed with pop culture, I get that it's a little hypocritical for me to be making...
