Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well done, California!
unable to study because they'd be picturing gay sex acts in their mind.
People really think this?!? Because there are sometimes I don't work at my best because i am picturing gay sex acts, but I don't think anyone is seriously banning TV or Bands.
msbelle, Is there a symbol on the bottom? [link]
Tupperware seems to think it is safe, [link] though of course they would. Other people seem to agree though. [link] [link] (except for Ice Prism pitchers).
It seems like it should be okay, especially if you don't microwave them.
Huh. I was just wondering the other day what had happened to Shania Twain, since she'd sort of disappeared:
Perkins, I would guess the pitcher I have is from the 70's or early 80's, but I also have current issue rubbermade storage stuff that I dishwasher adn ocassionally microwave.
This blog says to get rid of the older stuff: [link] So does this one, if it is made with polycarbonate. [link]
The current rubbermade stuff should be marked on the bottom, and they have a list of BPA/non-BPA products here [link]
thank you! I will need a minute to come up with another task for you to do, SOMEONE ELSE - keep Perkins busy!
I'm going to go get lunch, so you have some time.
Ethan Persoff scanned a US Army rifle maintenance booklet from 1968 that instructs soldiers to treat their rifles like a woman. Art by the incomparable WIll Eisner.
Treat your rifle like a lady. With lots of illustrations.
eta: Aside from the sexism, there's some racist caricatures of North Vietnamese soldiers as well....
Happy Birthday, Megan!
Happy Anniversary, Zmayhems!!
Here is my favorite bit from today's ruling of AWESOME:
"we now similarly recognize that an individual's homosexual orientation is not a constitutionally legitimate basis for withholding or restricting the individual's legal rights."
As someone else smarter than me said:
California is now treating sexual orientation as a "suspect classification", which means you better have a damn good reason for discriminating based upon it (which equates it to gender, race, etc.)
