THIS is why I can't be efficient! Everything I've whipped through today has had big honking typoes!
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Here's a sentence I never thought I'd type: I love Leonard Nimoy.
It's weird, but my brain read all of Nimoy's quotes with his voice.
Anyway - I had no idea he was doing this. Go him!

Wasn't he an asshat in Trainspotting?
eh. if so, he was a loveable asshat. He was irresponsible, and kind of annoying, but not a bady guy.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Ewan McGregor's going to star in a new London production of "Othello" as Iago, with Chiwetel Ejiofor as Othello.
So, F2F London? Dear me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He doesn’t necessarily find them sexually attractive. “But I do think they’re beautiful.”
Interesting distinction to make. We're not beholden to find everything sexually attractive, but do you think this statement is going to undermine any of what he's done in the eyes of big women?
Looks like he approached his subjects in the Full Body Project with dignity and appreciation, not like he was taking a patronising or voyeuristic angle. And, you know, that's the core of it.
Hmm. I had this long post about bodies, mine in particular, that just seems incongruous here.

So you know how the Queen of England paid a visit to George W. Bush recently? Check out this accidentally humorous headline in a Caribbean newspaper: [link]

It hit me as hurtful initially, but after about 5 seconds, I understood it. There are male body types I don't find sexually attractive but consider beautiful.

This was the key factor for me. He's not being exploitative or patronising. He's showing art.

this accidentally humorous headline
Accident? I don't know--the main Jamaican paper is the one that accompanied a bestiality story with a cartoon of a goat being buggered. It might be an accident that it got all the way through, but the tone is different in the islands.
It's weird. I had this post about how this skinny (and v. pretty with it) woman at krav was idealising my body, and it just felt weird. Like I have no place to talk, since I'm not fat. But I'm not skinny either, and having been various kinds of bodies I knew were close to textbook (slimmer and/or more ripped), it....I don't know. Odd. Like I should shut up.
Which I'm not entirely good at, huh?
Okay, someone in a nearby cube needs to stop clipping their nails. Someone else needs to find their beeping device and kill it.
Kat? You still around?
