'Dirty Girls'
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.
The healthcare stuff is making me angry, with people hijacking town meetings and spreading such rampant disinformation.
And so many people who oppose healthcare reform strike me as selfish and racist and classist. I know, as with everything, there are plenty of people with rational objections, but it's hard to be charitable when you're angry.
What is "PUA"?
What makes those "bondage heels"?
That she's wearing them. On me, they'd just be... heels.
I just got back from a field trip with my co-workers to Chuck Schumer's office (turns out it's across the street) where we handed in some flyers and let his PR flunky know we all support public universal healthcare. I feel so involved.
That phone call I made to Durbin's office yesterday was the first time I've ever called my representative/senator's office.

Oh, yeah, I had to turn off the radio this morning. It makes me completely ragey.
Not making me ragey is working from home today. Our internet connection at work has been up and down like crazy this week and is no better today evidently. Plus I had to bring my car in for a blown radiator hose yesterday and it's going to be way more money than I thought. If one week could go by with no unexpected car or pet expenses I would be very happy. It's so frustrating.
Also, my hairdresser moved to Annapolis and I haven't figured out a good way to get my bangs trimmed regularly. Being home today means I can get to a local salon before they close at 6. (I don't get why so many close at 6 on weekdays!)
I'm developing an unhealthy obsession with this whole PUA movement thingy that I learned about after the gym shootings by the "nice guy" who was sure he was entitled to fresh young women by the boatload.
I can't stop reading about it. Which is just making me more and more angry. Ugh.
Allyson, get out of my head! I've been doing the same thing, right down to the Hulk Smash anger.

And *deliberately* and *knowingly* spreading disinformation. "Death squads"?!?! I cannot believe that anyone with 2 brain cells believes that shit.
What is "PUA"?
Pick-up artist. Not the Robert Downey Jr. movie, but a whole movement designed to "teach" men how to trick women into having sex with them.
No, really.
PUA
ugh, I googled and now I want to throw up.
I like wikiHow better:
Smile casually and say something casual. Remember, you are a stranger. There is no need to say something elaborate but at least form the words clearly - don't mumble or spit in anticipation. Here are some ideas:
"Hey."
"How's it going?"
"Hey there."
"Hey what's up?"
Awww.
