Shit, this government doesn't see us as anything more than incubators, and I totally believe that.

Unless you're Condi Rice. Or Harriet Myers. Or... actually, Bush is known to surround himself with single women who totally suck up to him.

well, there's some men's civil group that is trying to use Roe v. Wade as basis for equal choices to men; i.e., they can choose whether to support a baby his pregnant partner decides to keep.

I fucking hate people.

there is something desperately wrong with the brains of people who want that kind of gun.

Doesn't it depend on what the bullets are being shot into? And for what reason?

That's more of a red flag to me than the size of the bullet.

That having been said--I don't get the recreational automatic weapon thing.

Male activists want say in child support.

In a perfect world, there are no unwanted pregnancies. In an imperfect world, watch your reproductive schtuff. If you're slinging semen, step up if it actually hits something.

thanks for the link ita. I read it in the paper yesterday, and was to lazy, er, shaking with righteous indignation, to google.

I love this, ita.

Hm. I've been in the market for a new tag.

Don't get me wrong; I looooove pockets in skirts. Just not formal dresses/skirts. Because....they're *formal.*

that's what decolatage is for, isn't it?

Things are much more complex than that, Gud. Most of the science funding my group gets is from the military. The military funds some great science.

And lots of highways too. It would be nice to fund those directly but we can always seem to justify it in the name of national security. If we could fund education adequately in the name of national security that would be keen -- but we're too busy being anti-science (stem-cell research, global warming, sex education, alternate fuels, evolution, AND NOW FUCKING VACCINES ) and then whining "why are we falling behiiiiiiind" to even attempt that shit. Agh. t /rantypants

Of course, we can afford to fund studies that prove conclusively that spring break leads to drunken hook-ups...

Well, I understand that bananas don't fly 1 kilometer with any kind of accuracy (although it would be awesome if they did!), but, a banana-sized bullet is kind of the textbook definition of overkill, don't you think?

Unless there is such a thing as brachiosaur hunting, that I don't know about.

Well, not if you're not killing things.
