Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We were talking about that at work the other day! Because my coworker's wife is pregnant.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

There was an article in Salon about placenta eating and people freaked the fuck out.

It was awesome. They got even more idiotic than usual in the letters. Several asserted, "Why would you actually DO this? This was a joke in the 70s! It was on SNL!" Dude, why do you think they were joking about it ?

USA Cheerleading is trying to figure out a way to have competition cheer separated out from traditional cheer because of the ruling.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I totally get that from the POV of competition cheer, and think that recognition of the difference would be huge for the sport as a sport - but otoh Quinnipiac totally deserved a major smackdown, given that their position was pretty much "we don't need women's sports! They can cheer for the men's sports!" which was kind of the whole point of extending Title 9 to sports!

Oh, hello amych's predictable issues and rants vol. 23 pt. 17!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Aren't speech bubble toys for cats kind of redundant? all the cats I've ever known have been able to let you know what they think just fine.
