I am sometimes happy to see all the political stuff on my friends' fb pages--even repeated over and over and over with teh same links, or the same "post this if you..." stuff. Most all my friends are of the same political persuasion as I am, so it makes me smile to know other people out there support the same things I do. OTOH, I mostly read it to be all up in people's lives, and don't post all that much political stuff myself. So, yeah.
That said, I was amused(?) after seeing all the planned parenthood links all day...and then I walked over to Trader Joe's to buy some food, and there was a person trying to get...donations? signatures? for PP. (And for once I was actually able to say "I gave at the office"! And used the company matching funds! Woot!)
My homeschooling animus is entirely free from the political spectrum.
I think it's wrong on the left and wrong on the right. If you're Jaycee Dugard it's fucking heroic. But generally speaking, I do believe kids benefit from having less parental involvement. Or, rather, they need a place to develop away from their parents as well.
I don't know how to speak to people in bad school districts, because...move, I guess, is my answer.
(Yikes, I just posted in an Archer-esque rhythm. Weird how certain comedy has certain rhythms, whether it's Cary Grant/Rosalind Russell in His Girl Friday, or Gary Trudeau's third-panel joke; fourth-panel ironic-riposte, anti-joke thingie.)
OMG, I should not be watching 30 Rock at home alone on a Friday night. With my cat.

You really shouldn't. No one should have a cat.
Stick a chip clip in your hair and your good, Jesse.
Possibly I got the wrong message from that episode.
I sentence you, megan walker, to a session with Mister Kitty and Loki.
Chez Zmayhem has responded to a cold, wet February night with: mulled wine, popcorn and a Harry Potter movie.
I must say I kicked ass on the mulled wine and popcorn.
I sentence you, megan walker, to a session with Mister Kitty and Loki.
I sentence megan walker to a cat-free night at our house...with her bag of lemons from javachik.
Then the cocktails.

I don't think my hair is long enough! I need to go to an odeon.
They are chock full of malarkey, odeons.
Ack, I used the wrong "your"! Oh, the shame.
