I'm a frustrated mama and I have four mini bottles of Fernet next to me. I must resist. Just so tired of beating a dead horse. I should just haul my tush to bed.

The Plan B decision makes me livid, and I'm on the opposite side of the actual abortion issue from most everyone here.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I just read about Hitchens.

msbelle, super cute hat. Also, I love the cloche that you are wearing in your self-portrait.

I am so tired that I'm beyond. But I have a presentation at a conference on Saturday (my time slot? 7:30-8:15... yeah. I'll have no one). I must put that shit together.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I've always hated Hitchens as the ultimate, pompous self-regarding narcissist. Never once did he cover an issue without inserting himself and his mighty outrage at the center of it, so that every political issue was about him. The fact that his politics swung all over the place and was ungrounded by anything other than his peevishness damns his legacy. He literally achieved nothing except being the blowhard in the middle of the cocktail party. He held forth and had a very high opinion of his opinion. That is the sum of him. He amounts to nothing; he stands for nothing except himself.

And now he's gone. And nobody's going to go back and read him to understand his time the way they still read Orwell writing about his era. People will look back and wonder why anybody paid attention to him at all.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Pretty! And the hat is nice, too.
