I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Speaking of, dammit, Coach and Tami and Tyra and Saracen cannot get back on my tv soon enough.

Yep.

Anyone want to write my blog post on "Why chicks dig vampires?" I said I would do it, but now that I think about it. I know why I dig this or that vampire (and honestly, a lot of it has nothing to do with the vampire part Helloooo Adrian Pasdar in Near Dark )

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

Can someone explain what a "typosexual" is?

Typo-Mohawk by Oded Ezer

For his talk at the London College of Communication, typographic artist Oded Ezer wore this self-made Typo-Mohawk (Typmohawk?). It reads "Typosexual" though I have no idea what it is all about …

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

"If you didn't want to get pregnant, you shouldn't have had sex."

This law goes way farther than that. I very intentionally had sex with my lawfully wedded husband with the explicit goal of getting pregnant AND IT WORKED. And this law would put me in jail.*

(*That is, if I hadn't been left to bleed out in the delivery room as God intended. I don't know how common it is to have a doctor who performs emergency third-trimester D&Es five minutes away in this country, but I'm guessing not very.)

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

Anyone want to write my blog post on "Why chicks dig vampires?"

IO9 says it's because of morality. I think they're full of crap. Thinly veiled sex and power metaphor.

Do chicks dig vampires more than dudes do?

Because books.

It's the ultimate bad boy fantasy, Daisy. So bad he's dead. And a blood-sucker. And yet he loves you so much he wants to make you his eternal bride.

Or something.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Makes sense, ita.

I don't know that they do, but this is because no one felt qualified to write about Twilight: New Moon when it releases, next week, I think.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

This law goes way farther than that. I very intentionally had sex with my lawfully wedded husband with the explicit goal of getting pregnant AND IT WORKED. And this law would put me in jail.*

There were rumblings about the law last week too, and I thought of you immediately--what you were going through and how it would criminalize you and everyone in your already terrible position, and it put me in an utterly HULK SMASH place. Also, HULK SIGN A TON OF ONLINE PETITIONS AND WRITE URGENT EMAILS TO HULK'S SENATORS, not that it made much difference, apparently.
