I confess all about my brief but colorful foray into the world of petty larceny. It seemed reasonable at the time. open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

One of my old New York Times fashion pieces, in which I learn to embrace large square blouses and shearling clog boots. A kicky look at hipster evolution. open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

THRILL! As I discuss Oakland’s almost metaphysical trash problem. Also, I find amazingly f-ed up things on the street. A la Substacks! open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

Read me geek out all over myself over the woman I consider to be the most magical and brilliant jewelry maker alive. On the glorious Substacks, for free! Oh, and there’s an audio version as well. substack.com/home/post/p-...

A fun new piece about my decade long strike against men. Needless to say, they never caved in to my demands. open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

A new post from an old article about the massively expensive French shoes and foreboding store atmosphere at Pierre Hardy. Who says shoppers need light? open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

Here’s a fun New York Times throwback to the Tom Binns boutique, where punk jewelry once ran amok. I heckle a shopgirl for being worthless. open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

This Zizek Substack is OUT OF THIS WORLD. All the Lacanian views on mimetic desire, Peter Theil, technocracy....Oh Slavoj, you big slob. Come give me a big sloppy kiss. slavoj.substack.com/p/conclusion...

The richest 0.1 percent of the global population are hiding nearly $3 trillion in offshore accounts to evade taxes — more than the wealth held by the entire bottom half of humanity. It would take about $93 billion per year to eradicate extreme hunger by 2030. Taxing the rich is a global necessity.

I believe Tiger Woods may be categorized under @cintra.bsky.social Cintra Wilson’s term “ultra fame scorch victim.”

Locusts! Frogs! Theft! And the sad death of an interesting collaboration. Turns out you CAN kill art. cintra.substack.com/p/shocked-an...

It’s the first leg of the Michelle Shocked tour, and I am launched rocketlike into some weird parts of Florida! Read it and feel the mirth. On the Substacks! open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

I’m embarking on my tour with Michelle Shocked today! But first, a love letter to the tattoo shows that sustain me spiritually. Selah. open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

A golden oldie from my seemingly endless repository of snarky fashion shite that the NYT miraculously published. French fun! open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

Here’s a zippy piece of writing that got me in huge trouble with the British aristocrat that owned the franchise, when it came out. Peerage schmeerage. open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

"The characters he plays are generally weak, immoral, murderous, slimy or insane. Yet to gaze upon John Hurt, in almost any role, is to feel a drooly adoration; he is irresistible." – @cintra.bsky.social [via @dean.bsky.social] Hurt #botd in 1940.

A new essay in which I make a stunning artistic announcement. I’m going to be all up in your face! open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

Another blast from my stint as Critical Shopper at the New York Times, containing many bon mots and yuks. On the Substacks! open.substack.com/pub/cintra/p...

Played by Daniel Kaluuya (very good and suitably charismatic, if a bit old) in Shaka King's excellent JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH (2021), worth a watch if you haven't seen it. Also features LaKeith Stanfield and Jesse Plemons.

Hahaha. I so hate Fucker Carlson and his 12 pound nougat head.

I thought people would be less assholic on here because they're liberals, but guess again.

I have found the Excalibur of magnetic chalkboard manufacturers.

You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

I am teaching a new essay workshop starting THIS MONDAY, NOV. 24. This class is magic. Your words will glow with power. Contact me quick, only 2 slots left!

You could call an AK spraydown an heuristic approach to murder.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

I wonder why that could be. Oh, old white men want to be in control of their vaginas.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Looking east near the summit of Parkfield Grade. Hardly a road or building in sight.

Until we have replicators, we will need wealth redistribution.
