'Safe'


Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Yay for GC and DW's seafood-eating honeymoon!

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

What Windsparrow said.

Also, amusing anecdote from school today (well, I think it's funny):

UnfortunatelyNamed(9yearold)Child: He just called me BlackShit*!

Teacher: Who did?

UnfortunatelyNamedChild: Him! (points at Atman, a feisty five year old boy with long braid hanging down his back, a very pretty wee face and a snotty nose - who, incidentally, really has no room to mock other kids' names, with a brother called Arpit, but that's beside the point)

Teacher: Atman, Akshit says you were rude about his name! We don't do that here.

Akshit (who, it must be said, IS a bit of a little shit at times) nods emphatically.

Atman looks thoughtful.

Atman: Okay. Sorry.

five minutes pass by.

Akshit: Teacher! Teacher!

Teacher: Yes?

Akshit: Now he called me a fucker!

( *in another context I might have read this as racist, but given that both kids are the same ethnicity, I just read it as fairly impressive - albeit highly inappropriate and offensive - wordplay and an incisive assessment of Akshit's character.)

Mostly lurking...

Mom and I were talking about the gifts after and she said it was because people don't think I'm ''like that'' whatever that means.

This is my take--that was entirely NOT the place. That was a really classy shower. It would have never occurred to me to give you lingerie in that setting--more because of who I knew would be there rather than you.

And it gets its own post.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NORA!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Happy birthday, Nora!
