Silencia Suicide in The Other

• INTO: Loud Music, wearing too much black, vegan cookies, religious iconography, sarcasm, impeccable wit, used book stores, socialist feminism, spontaneity, innocence, love.
• MAKES ME HAPPY: Gay men, handwritten letters, black coffee, New York, Portland, Kubrick, Borges. Sioux, a good sense of humor, grandparents, intelligence.
• MAKES ME SAD: Conservative politics, people who force their views on others, how necessary money is sometimes, “text” typing in e-mail/online messages – scratch that – “text” typing in general (yes, even in text messages), when people refer to tattoos as “ink” or “tatts.”
• HOBBIES: Lots of things that end with “ing.”.
• 5 THINGS I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT: Paper, black ink pen, background noise, my brain, my heart (all the other organs aren’t as important).

Arnold Schwarzenegger may have moved over to the dark side when he came out as a Republican and decided to take California, but MoveOn.org is fighting back with a little help from The Terminator. In the organization’s latest interweb broadcast, Olivia Wilde (House) travels back in time Sarah Connor-style to rally resistance against the G.O.P machine and the omnipresent Faux News Network that supports it.

Let us answer life’s questions – because great advice is even better when it comes from SuicideGirls.

Q. My concern is pretty simple. There is a girl that works by the Starbucks close to where I work. In the last 3 months or so we’ve started to have random small talk and a few more personal questions here and there. Since I’ve known her I’ve also started to get to know the rest of the staff, and now every now and then they throw some freebies my way. This girl seems to be really nice, attentive and good looking. My question is, should I venture out and ask her out and possibly compromise my afternoon hangout and my kick-backs? Also, what would be the best way to ask her out? – From someone who likes coffee a lot!

Pumpkin pie is a peculiarly North American tradition. I spent my October-November in Australia once and found, in the search to soothe my homesickness by making one, that “pumpkin” there means any kind of squash, and canned pumpkin puree simply doesn’t exist. Funnily enough, Halloween (to the degree that we indulge in it) is also a peculiarly North American tradition. Coincidence?

I assumed that pumpkin pie was a Thanksgiving dish – though my family eats it at Christmas too. But the correlation between pumpkin pie and Halloween was too strange for me to ignore this year. Either that, or I wanted an excuse to make a pumpkin pie with a spiderweb on top.

“I’m probably the most paranoid man in Los Angeles.”
– Anthony E. Zuiker

In his first novel, Dark Origins, CSI creator Anthony E. Zuiker brought us a serial killer so extreme that he was the world’s first to be deemed worthy of Level 26 status. The spree of diabolical crimes perpetrated by the latex-attired – and therefore forensic-proof – Sqweegle, was ultimately halted by Steve Dark, a Special Circumstances investigator with demons of his own.
