I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Now tagless for your comfort.

Our society is so sick.

Unfortunately, Cindy, there is too much "sex is bad" and the results are supposed to be hidden away. Shame and sex have become intertwined and inescabable for some people.

Is it so surprising, with that kind of history, that people don't rejoice in the results. Look at how bastard children used to be treated. When any society seeks to shame it's membership into NOT having sex, the result is to keep it secret and to hide any resulting consequences--at any cost.

Some societies cherish all children, regardless of their legitimacy. I wish that were the case here. I think any society that purports to be pro-life should provide the support and free education for any mother who finds herself pregnant. But I don't see that happening--especially not under a republican administration.

We are supposed to get pro-life message and but then we see another cut in social services. The conservatives think they can lie and shame kids into not having sex. Those same people who want every fertilized egg to be born sure as hell don't want to foot the bill for more welfare and medicaid. That's what rubs me raw.

It's too complicated, sad and horrifying and as long as our leaders deny that biology is stronger than morality, it's going to be that way.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Something else about John Roberts:

In this photo [link] doesn't he look like a robot? And maybe some of his circuits got crossed? Or else he just bumped the "on" switch on his pocket Orgasmatron? (eta: or his Mr. Squirmy Butt Plug?)

Your tag here.

Yesterday I heard Movie Store Guy say to a female patron, "You smell like Pez, but in a good way. Pez is my favorite smell." She seemed to be torn between being horrified and flattered.

I think it would depend on what Movie Store Guy looked like.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That Balloon Hat site is stunning. I'm saving some of it for later.

I can't even.

The Gov. Gen. is not the Queen. IJS.

The Governor-General is, in fact, the Queen's representative in Canada in our political system and performs the constitutional function of the monarch. And she (the GG) sometimes needs sick days too.
