Thanks for the link, Shrift! That was absolutely wonderful.

WE ARE NOT IN AMERICA
Well, yes. And there's also the fact that the right to free speech applies to the government, not private entities. Which is why a newspaper in Oregon could fire a columnist for calling George W. a baboon's bottom.
FFN is, by any stretch of the imagination, a private entity, and since Xing has always retained the right to control its content, there's no real way to claim it's become a "public forum" for the purposes of First Amendment law. Just because the stories are available to anyone who wants to read them and has access to the internet doesn't make the site itself a public forum, where the right of free expression attaches to speech of social, political, or artistic value.
This is why, by the way, many malls don't allow people to hand out flyers on their property.

I just wanted to say that I'm actively encouraging someone to write Harvey songfic, since I wrote Harvey mpreg.
You had him singing Paul Anka; doesn't that count?
Suddenly remembering Lani Tupu talking about how well Wayne Pygram played drums...

Trying to use more than one pseud makes my brain hurt. I don't know how people do it.

Well, I'm not smart enough to make them all very much different, am I?
I think I would have been up shit creek if I'd tried to find a town in New Jersey that starts with Vee.
