The Third Estate Sunday Review focuses on politics and culture. We're an online magazine. We don't play nice and we don't kiss butt. In the words of Tuesday Weld: "I do not ever want to be a huge star. Do you think I want a success? I refused "Bonnie and Clyde" because I was nursing at the time but also because deep down I knew that it was going to be a huge success. The same was true of "Bob and Carol and Fred and Sue" or whatever it was called. It reeked of success."

Drunk Literature
Overheard at a bar, an apparent nod to Comedy Central's Drunk History.
Woman: I never read Catcher in the Rye. Does it involve rye bread.
Man: No, it's about gay sex. Holden Caufield is a bottom -- a catcher. Interestingly, it wasn't supposed to be titled Catcher in the Rye. That was a typo. It was supposed to be called Catcher in the Raw.
Woman: Wow. I did not know that.
