See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
what the fuck? how can you be for a cure and not support stem cell research? I don't get this.
Per this summary of the mess at DailyKos, SGK *did* support stem cell research, most recently giving $12M/year in grants, until this past November. Either they were a lot quieter about it or the former grant recipients were, so it just slipped under everyone's radar until this week.
But, yep, hell yeah they used to be for a cure and vigorously support stem cell research, just not no more.

Our wings are not tired.
There have been a number of times in the past that I sponsored friends in their races. I want to believe this is going to dramatically change their fund raising, but it is more likely that those that applaud their agenda will make up the difference.

Apparently there's a Canadian documentary opening next week that addresses all the problems with the SGK foundation.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Aw, my boss just brought me a brownie. Crying pays off!

Because books.
Someone from SGK was just on The Today Show. That was awkward.
Uh, Laura, aren't you your own boss?
Heh.
So far this morning, I shut one of the cats in the dryer, nearly sneezed a contact out in the middle of an allergy attack, and almost forgot to hand Sara her viola when she got on the bus. But it's sunny!

I am supportive! And would let Laura have some of my brownie, if only she were closer.
