[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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Thus weekend's been at the business end of parenting. Ryan spent most of it with a 103 degree fever, poor little boo. Such a relief when it finally broke. He was still very good-natured for the most part (except when trying to give him the medicine, and he was still at least not drastically uncooperative), and very affectionate. He has received many cuddles, this boy.

Wallybee's parents will be back in two weeks' time. I know my sweetie is looking forward to it very much. (I hope it doesn't take long for Ryan to warm up to them again, he's developed a very cautious streak around strangers.)

I am also in the airport, Laura! But my flight connecting to the Peru flight has just been delayed an hour. Grr. And eek.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Wow. I have mixed feelings about Anonymous, but in this case I can't think of a better target. Give 'em hell, A.

Have fun in Peru, meara!

I hope Ryan feels better soon.

What smonster said.

We have left PA. Whoooo-hoooo.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Wow. I have mixed feelings about Anonymous, but in this case I can't think of a better target.

Both of these things sooooo much. It's a form of terrorism. And yet, somehow, I just can't seem to care.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I kinda do care. Anonymous are asses. The enemy of my enemy isn't always my friend. There's no high moral reason they're not going after someone I don't dislike.

It's like 4chan going after the girl that threw the puppies. I still think they're a horrible mass of slime.

It gives you the feeling you're using them as a tool to do something useful, but really they're rabid animals that are just biting conveniently at the moment.

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.

WindSparrow, glad you were able to laugh at that. You kind of have to, I think.

Ohhh, yeah. And I'd rather have day that is crappy from one end to another, than one that involves trips to the emergency room for anyone.

meara, I hope your travels don't suffer too much from the delay.

Poor Ryan. And poor Ryan's parents. That's a high fever, and so worrying.

'biting conveniently at the moment' is an amazingly good way to put it.

Compassionately intolerant

I'm with ita. I wish Westboro would suddenly get wise and clean their own house.

Much as I have to confess to a glimmer of 'heh' when I read that piece, at the same time, I began reciting Martin Niemoller's quote...First they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist. Then, they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me, there was no one left to speak out for me.

I don't want to speak out for those hateful people. At the same time, tyranny is tyranny, no matter how it is dressed up. And the problem with the kind of power Anonymous wields is that it never seems to be satisfied and is never bounded by morality.

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

Already remembering why I don't like closed shoes. Boo. Toes wanna be free.

Penny loafers, no socks! The toesies look around sayin', "Hey, its DARK... but we can still moooooveeee... hmmm."

It's my favorite way to fly. Just kick 'em off, slip 'em on.

AND YEA VERILY I SHALL WEAR PENNY LOAFERS AGAIN!

re: ANONYMOUS

People are being stupid in the letters. (Shocking, I know) Freedom of speech isn't in a question of just anyone impinging expression, its a question of the government doing so. Duh.

From what I can see, I don't think I have a problem with ANONYMOUS and their past campaigns. So far it looks like straight-up civil disobedience to me. Unlike 4chan where there was the potential for the puppy girl to get hurt because of their actions (iirc, they released the information publicall, right? as opposed to just taking it to the authorities) this seems like it might actually be, you know, civil, in its disruption.
