HBO recently released their latest documentary, Regarding Susan Sontag. Other than the corny interstitials, the film creates a wonderful portrait of Sontag’s life using a huge assortments of interviews and clips and so on. She lived an incredible life and wrote remarkable essays, including her famed writings On Photography and Illness as Metaphor. In the clip above, she rips apart an interviewer for asking her "contentious" questions.

Spent an hour looking at my boyfriends Facebook pictures and then taking pictures of the pictures because I am still trying to wrap my head around the fact that this dude wants to look at my face all the time.

As a writer, Allan described with great clarity and passion what photography can, and must do: document the facts of social relations while opening a more metaphoric space to allow viewers the idea that things could be different. And as a photographer he set out to do just that. He laid bare the ugliness of exploitation, but showed us the beauty of the ordinary; of ordinary, working people in ordinary, unremarkable places doing ordinary, everyday things. And, like the rigorous old-style leftist that he was, he infused that beauty with a deep sense of morality.

In this installment of The Scene Report with Wendy, our hero is torn between the trappings of critical discourse, and the chance for a Fun, Flirty, Good Time! Between the political and the personal, is there space in our cultural milieu to just Let Down Your Hair?

I know he likes me but he’s afraid of it too. Whenever he looks at me, he looks at me twice.

As per a couple of anon requests I've put together a small mix of what I've been bumpin' lately. To my surprise these past few weeks LA's been experiencing some cloudy, even rainy days which only serves to settle my bones and remind me of those late summer thunderstorms Savannah is famous for. The end of the summer is creeping up on us and with that comes some fucking time for reflecting, as always these songs are for getting though the changing of the seasons and remembering how to die, which is to say, to see the other side.
