singling out a 14 year old for aging badly
Yikes. That's an awesome beauty standard society upholds.
Actually not needing validation right now, but thank you.

Good luck with the apartment hunt, Jesse.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My sister interrupted me with...well, it's people-being-shits too. She wrote an anthropologist's takedown of the homosexuality is wrong article in the Jamaican paper from the other day. It's long, so I'm not going to post it here, but I think it's worth reading her rebuttal editorial.
I don't know if it will get printed, but at least it's up on my tumblr. Yeah, maybe it looks weird next to posts exhorting Tony and Steve to kis....maybe it looks just fine, now that I think about it.

I vividly remember when Rush Limbaugh spent a lot of air time mocking 14 y.o. Chelsea Clinton's looks. And I vividly remember the urge to smash his face in repeatedly with a lead pipe.

Don't 14-16 year old girls want to look like they are in their 20s? At least some of the time. I know I did.

Welsh cakes: link. They're hard to describe because I really haven't had anything else like them. Sort of a denser pancake cooked on a griddle with currants in them.

The Mary Sue should exercise more control over the ads on their site, if they can. I know I've read about certain cites closely curtailing divisive or alienating ads popping up. But I clicked on the link to women-must-stay-nubile-here's-a-token-man article from there. It seems...contradictory to their articles.

Thanks, sj. I seem to recall actually making some of those recently, or maybe they were Scots griddle cakes. Something like that, though: a dense slightly-sweet biscuit with raisins, cooked on the stovetop.
ION, I seem to have failed my online computer security test. I'm going to assume that it's because I was too conservative in my answers; maybe it is acceptable to check eBay during lunch after all. (The frustrating bit is they don't tell you which questions you got wrong, which is not conducive to learning!)

What's the what with Mos Def/Yasiin Bey? Which name is he going under, and should I file his pics under the former or the latter?

The two are probably very similar. And this started a conversation with TCG about how we both really want to go back to Wales. We were only there for a few hours.
