How dare you say that Aimee! He ran the Underground Railroad, invented the peanut and wrote the Emancipation Proclaimation!
Wesley: And how does your kind define love? Demon: Same as all bodies. Same as everywheres. Love is sacrifice.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Again with the time travel. It seems to be a lot more widespread than I thought.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Well, I do wander around pantsless, yes.
I'm having a hell of a time keeping clothes on Owen at the moment. He loves to strip down and take his diaper off. I've tried convincing him that it's too cold but he just runs around yelling, "NAKED!" and laughing hysterically.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Well fuck. I've been reading the wrong god damned websites.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Aimee, certainly not in the literal sense. Though I might not quarrel with a classmate who made a sound argument that Jim Crow was the functional equivalent of slavery.

I would not quarrel with that. I would make the same argument. I made the same argument that apartheid was a funtional equivalent of slavery.
But Dr King didn't end slavery in the United States which is what we're discussing right now. The ending of slavery.
Also? Same classmate. Used the word "horrities".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sure, not if it were sound. But I'd be really interested in seeing how it was made sound.
Aimée, my phone is now desperately cheesy. Rings will include Soap, Benson, Golden Girls, Miami Vice, Hawaii 5-0 and Magnum.

"horrities"
I know not what it means (Accessories for whores? Manners for whores?). But I like it.

I adore your cheesy phone.
The argument I used with apartheid when I was called on it as not being slavery because the non-white pople weren't removed from their country was,
The direct definition of slavery from Merriam-Webster is: submission to a dominating influence. While the non-white population weren't physically removed from their country, they most certainly emotionally and psychologically removed from their country when they were denied the right to live in it as any other citizen regardless of race."
If anyone was interested.
I love this class. I had to find 7 - 10 people and or acts of legislation important to the Civil Rights and Black Power movements. It was awesome. I tried really hard to stay away from the "mainstream" people because I wanted to find the more obscure but as equally important people. I just wish my prof wasn't the Rear Admiral Asshat that he is.

There's a very funny Dana Carvey stand up special where he talks about how his kids liked being naked so much that they had to institute a "Naked Time" where they could run around au naturale (shouting "Naked Time!", natch), and how it freaked people who weren't used to it when they visited.
