"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It would be funny to see the televangelists' reaction to that announcement.

"What did you think I meant by 'love thy fellow man,' anyway?"

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

I'm totally emailing a link to that Wonderella comic to the kinderqueers. Who would love it more than gay seminarians?

Also, my iPhone autocompletes for kinderqueers now. Heh.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

You know what this day needs? A random penguin video. [link]

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Random penguins are awesome!

Batman money clip

It’s a tiny batarang that folds protectively over your precious money, keeping it from flying away. Die-cast, sheathed in a ninja-like matte black rubberized coating and with a magnetized grip, this is the stealthiest and most effective batarang money clip on the face of the planet.

Parents keep child's gender secret

While there’s nothing ambiguous about Storm’s genitalia, they aren’t telling anyone whether their third child is a boy or a girl.

The only people who know are Storm’s brothers, Jazz, 5, and Kio, 2, a close family friend and the two midwives who helped deliver the baby in a birthing pool at their Toronto home on New Year’s Day.

“When the baby comes out, even the people who love you the most and know you so intimately, the first question they ask is, ‘Is it a girl or a boy?’” says Witterick, bouncing Storm, dressed in a red-fleece jumper, on her lap at the kitchen table.

“If you really want to get to know someone, you don’t ask what’s between their legs,” says Stocker.

When Storm was born, the couple sent an email to friends and family: “We've decided not to share Storm's sex for now — a tribute to freedom and choice in place of limitation, a stand up to what the world could become in Storm's lifetime (a more progressive place? ...).”

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That seems to be a thing now- there was that couple in Sweden who were doing the same thing.

I went to the garden store today and got basil and Swiss chard seedlings to grow in my window box (well, the chard will be in the windowbox, the basil has it's own pot). So if I get Raptured later today, could someone come water my plants?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Steph, that was AWESOME.

I would welcome a Rapture that was actually Jesus taking all the gay Christians on a big gay cruise ark. Although I like having gay Christians around, so it would make me sad. But they totally deserve big high-fives from Jesus.

(I also love comic!Jesus's annoyed "It won't BE ON THE NEWS!")

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I can't justify the expense of that money clip, but I totally want it.

I'll do it! Because I think the odds of me really having to do it are vanishingly small.

IORaptureN, Camping (the Rapture guy) has taken his Facebook page down. His radio station is still on the air, and apparently they haven't mentioned the Rapture today.
