Also, Satan himself was manifesting in my bathroom, and I needed to do something about that.

Diabolic manifestations are so disruptive to proper domestic life.

OMG, I hope I've done everything I was supposed to do, because I can't work anymore. I'm falling asleep at my laptop. It's midnight-thirty; that's enough dedication for one day. I'm going to bed.

Erin's link is NSF anybody! Who looks at Sloth from Goonies and is inspired to make a sex toy!?!?

I'd rather just get paid to yell at dudes about their grammar. It's like editing, but pays better!

Teppy, I think you need, NEED, to become a pro Domme specializing in grammar. The world cries out for such a thing.

I just want to point out that tomorrow is Friday (for those who clicked on Erin(?)s link)

I'm a little uncomfortable discussing prostitution so blithely. It is a social ill. Not because of the sex, but because it's selling people. The vast majority are not high priced call girls. We're talking about women being bought by a man who wants to own them.

Fandango doesn't have the ArcLight theaters. Major Fail!

I missed most of the porn discussion, but... OK, maybe I'll get shot down for this, but I am not a fan of porn. I am a fan of consenting activities between two (or three, or four, or ten!) consenting adults. I'm bisexual, and an admirer of BDSM (from varying distances - that has depended on who I've with!). I'm *very* big on inclusion in the feminist movement (very much including men and trans women) - inclusion being my role in the feminist org I volunteer for. I like reading erotic literature, and I think hentai is awesome (not my thing personally, but a fab concept). AND I am fairly anti-porn. Not as much as many members of my org, but I am. I have plenty of time for people's opinions who are pro porn, or who are sex workers, but I've heard too many personal stories and statistics that show what the sex industry can do to women (Kat Banyard's 'The Equality Illusion' is *full* of them, and I was recently at a conference with two women who have appalling PTSD from their years as prostitutes, and their stories really shook me up and led me to look further into the effects of the sex industry). And I do believe that much porn objectifies women. Call me conservative or a prude if you want. But I'm entitled to my opinion. All I wanted to say was - don't lump anti-porn feminists in with anti-trans, anti-gay, anti-bisexual or anti-sex types. I am very pro sex indeed (mmm, sex). I am still against the porn industry.

By the way, the org I work for is called UK Feminista and is truly awesome. As a footnote.

My boss actually said this morning, and I quote, "I'm going to break you. I'm going to break you like a horse."

Where's WindSparrow? We need some good poetic justic.

I am not good with numbers.

What a shame, because my first thought was that it would be fun to drop Hil's ex-advisor into your job - and of course if you were mathy enough you could simply have Professor Ass-Chappeau's job.

That was just one of her many She Said What? statements.

Not that you need any advice, but have you considered taking careful notes of those little moments? You know, in case you ever need to prove that the environment was toxic and over-and-above stressful for, say, a lawyer and/or unemployment office?

Seska, no reason for you to hide, that I can see.
