‘Dykes to Watch Out For,’ Now Holding Forth in Your Headphones
Over the past few weeks, Mallory Pearson, a 26-year-old writer and graphic designer living in Brooklyn, and her roommate, a tattoo artist, have been reading through Alison Bechdel’s beloved comic “Dykes to Watch Out For .” The series, which ran from 1983 to 2008, rings true as ever to the pair. “We read something together, literally the other day, and were laughing about how accurate it is,” Ms. Pearson said. They read jokes about feeling unprepared for a date, and story lines about the insularity of lesbian friend groups. “Seeing how that hasn’t changed at all is hilarious to me,” she added. On Thursday, “Dykes to Watch Out For” was reborn in a surprising medium: an audio series from Audible , adapted by the playwright Madeleine George. Carrie Brownstein plays the verbose polemicist Mo, and Roberta Colindrez voices Lois, a full-time flirt. They’re joined by others, including Roxane Gay, as Jezanna, and Jane Lynch, who narrates the series. This month marks 40 years since Ms. … [Read more...] about ‘Dykes to Watch Out For,’ Now Holding Forth in Your Headphones

At first, the owner of Tasty Thai in Fresno temporarily closed the restaurant on May 16 due to an outpouring of negative reviews, but he claimed the hate messages got so intense that there was no way his business had a chance of recovering. “It quickly got to the point where there was almost no return,” David Rasavong told The Daily Beast. In the video that went viral across social media, a woman films a panting dog tied up outside a house, with a short leash and no access to water in the heat. “Look at this poor dog, guys,” she says after walking onto the premises. “Fucking ridiculous.” An older man of Asian descent answers the door after the woman knocks to yell at him about why the dog is in the heat with no water. However, there appears to be a communication barrier between the two. … [Read more...] about How Racism and a Viral Mob Destroyed a California Restaurant
