More proof that bats are closer to dogs on the evolutionary scale than they are to rodents (although they are even closer to foxes).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just spent a lot of time chatting with a couple of the people left in the office, and I'm highly annoyed to see it's not even 4 yet. WTF, people.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Bush Family Planning Appointee Called Contraceptives Part Of The ‘Culture Of Death’
On Monday, President Bush appointed Susan Orr to oversee federal family planning programs at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Orr, who is currently directing HHS child welfare programs, was touted by the administration as “highly qualified.”
But a look at Orr’s record shows that her strongest qualifications appear to be her right-wing credentials and endorsement of the Bush administration’s failed abstinence-only policies. Before joining HHS, Orr served as senior director for marriage and family care at the conservative Family Research Council and was an adjunct professor at Pat Robertson’s Regent University. Some highlights:
...
– In a 2000 Weekly Standard article, Orr railed against requiring health insurance plans to cover contraceptives. “It’s not about choice,” said Orr. “It’s not about health care. It’s about making everyone collaborators with the culture of death.”

How is it not FRIDAY YET!?!?!
At least it's not fucking Tuesday.
Also, I sent some of you guys an email. My sister's boyfriend guested on a Marvel comic. There's a shout out to her and our hometown in it. If you want to see it and I didn't email you, shoot me an e and I'll show it to you.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Orr authored a paper in 2000 titled, “Real Women Stay Married.” In it she wrote that women should “think about focusing our eyes, not upon ourselves, but upon the families we form through marriage.”
I feel nauseous. (Or nauseated. Whichever one is right.)

Why do some people have to suck so very much?

Thrive to spite them
I strongly believe that the if the right wing ultraconservative stay in power at some point in the future we'll be seeing attempts to publicly funded & promote the idea that sex within marriage should be for conception only.
It's what these people believe and they want to make all of their beliefs public policy.

I think you're right, askye. Except, they don't really believe it! They believe it for "other people," but obviously half of them are whoring around and/or getting divorced and/or secretly gay, each of which would be wrong, per stated "beliefs."
Argh.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Maybe contraception is okay if you're really really ashamed of it.
