Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

If I only had a brain...

"It was for sale on a table next to some vegetables. I knew immediately it was something I had never seen before," said Robert Timmins of the Wildlife Conservation Society

"Tastes just like chicken", he added.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

My credit's not bad, but that Laista List's is just terrible.

Hey!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I've been trying to catch up and finally decided to threadsuck, so I am almost totally context-free! It's an odd feeling.

I had a Diet Coke® made with Splenda® day before yesterday. It tasted different from the aspartamed one, but it's been 25 years or so since I last had a real Coke, so I don't know if it tastes anything like that.

I saw an article (in People? An in-flight magazine? Who knows?) on Orlando Bloom (in part) that mentioned that as part of his buling up for KoH he gave up his vegetarian ways, and "even tried goat". I just figured that needed to be mentioned here. Even if it already has been.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A friend of mine works for a social service agency that recently started a residential program for refugee kids. They expected it would be mostly Mexican and other Latin American boys who made it across the border, but have been shocked at the fact that it's actually Eastern European girls who were brought over to be prostitutes. Little girls, like 10, 11 years old. It's horrifying.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Gah, Jesse. I wish i hadn't read that. Bless your friend. I would go mad with rage in five minutes if I had to work for such an agency.

Yeah, it's really really bad.

There was an interview with OB on ET or AH where he was talking about how they were trying to pass the goat off as lamb, but he figured it was goat because there were all kinds of goats running around but no sheep.

Was Orlando on Emma Thompson or Allyson Hannigan, because they aren't usually easily confused.
