A friend of mine directed me to this website, where a couple of women called The Spew post clips of their public-access television show based out of NYC. It’s not exactly sketch comedy, though it is comedy, and pretty sketchy too. This is real downhome DIY good times, people. While it’s not always funny per se, I love watching these two gals totally crack each other up while dressing like a sexy Shreddies box or pretending to be British rappers. Is this what the democratization of the media looks like? I could live with that.

Shameless prides itself on the diversity of opinions expressed by our writers, and we encourage and appreciate different points of view. Our intention at Shameless is to foster community and to maintain a safe and positive blogging environment; we do not consider it our duty to give a voice to anybody with an opinion.
Discussion on this site is moderated. We will delete comments that:
- use discriminatory language
- use hate speech
- attack our bloggers or other commenters
- are inflammatory.
(We get to decide what's discriminatory, hateful, attacking, or inflammatory).
In some cases, we will cap off comments on a discussion when we feel they are spiralling out of control and fostering an unwelcoming space for bloggers and readers. Comments will be closed by the Web Editor, unless the post is by the Web Editor, in which case the Editor in Chief will close them.
If your comments repeatedly make the same point, they may be deleted. This also applies to comments made by multiple members of the same organization.
Your comments should be about the topic of the post, not its writer—although we certainly encourage praise for our writers, if you want to say something nice.
