Maggie at Boing Boing explains what is going on with Japanese nuclear plant. Sounds right to me, but I could have missed something. Ginger?

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.
I think my roomie and her bf are about to have sex. That's just the extra motivation I need to go take a shower. She's awesome and considerate, but this is an old house with thin walls and I am no auditeuse (or whatever the sound equivalent of voyeuse is).
(I just want to point out that my dogs would be happy to live in a car!! You can worry about the guy in that sitch, but don't worry about the dog. Walks, food, water, love, car rides, it's all doggie needs. I'm always amazed that some of the damned happiest dogs I see are a homeless person's pets.)
Can I have some ~ma for my stepdad's family. His cousin killed himself last night. There was no warning that I know of, but he left an 8 page suicide note. We're all devestated.
Teppy I hope things work out. It sounds like Tim is willing to listen to your needs that if you talk it out, he won't doing anything you can't live with as long as you tell him what you can't live with.
Oh Goddess, SJ. All the ~ma in the world. Nothing I can think of to say beyond that, love to you and through you to the rest of your family.
Oh, sj, I am very sorry.
How horrible, sj! Much ~ma to your family.
And my default is to believe that I have no rights, my feelings don't matter, and if I don't do exactly what Tim* wants, then the relationship is over. Completely powerless.
Teppy, I am exactly like you in this regard. (OK, not about Tim, because I've never met him, but it's my default attitude towards the Other Person). The difference between you and me is that when I get caught in this way of thinking is to withdraw even further, and to not talk to anyone. Seeing you here talking about these things and trying to work through them is a huge inspiration to me. You're my hero.
xpost: I'm very sorry, sj.
