I have as much of a problem calling forced prostitution "sexual slavery" because it is forced.
I don't see the problem -- isn't forced inherent in slavery?
Yes. It's using
sexual
that feels off, somehow.
I only used the term "white slavery" because of the Teppy thing.
Oh, I knew that sumi. It's just that the article got me thinking about the term in contexts where we're not doing the Teppy riff.
That phrase would work, except none of you FUCKOS even *tried.* I feel so rejected.
Maybe we're just inefficient, Teppy.
Hey, I just heard of somebody who made a huge fuss about her job, got her boss in trouble, was first transferred away from it and now has been promoted.
Oh, shit -- is anyone else in NYC watching the news?
100 yards of retaining wall just collapsed on the Henry Hudson parkway. Rescue workers are on the way.
It doesn't look like it's hit the internet yet, but it's right near 181st St. Police may be evacuating the area (they're not sure yet how much of the rest of that bit of land is unstable).
Nobody knows yet how many cars were under there. At least it wasn't rush hour yet.
They have pictures on wabc.com, and good lord!
Oh my god! I hope they're able to get everyone out.
NBC is saying now they don't think anyone was caught underneath. Which would be amazingly lucky, if it's true.
