That's an awesome lack of self-awareness.
I disagree. I think it's purposeful arrogance.

Because books.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
It's definitely deliberate: [link]

I stand corrected. And plunged into a combination of anger and depression.

Thrive to spite them
It is deliberate. They keep trying to frame this as a religious issue and that it's not about women. Just like when Santorum back pedaled on his comments that Griswold v Connecticut was a bad decision. He tried to claim it wasn't about birth control, it was about states rights.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I have outrage fatigue.
Good grief, me too. I was getting the outrage back until the current ultrasound-dildo-rape and men-know-best outrages, and now I'm exhausted again.
I had the transvaginal ultrasound before I got my Mirena, and it made me cry. I can't deal with how terrible it would be for someone whose experience was worse than mine. And how those horrible people just don't care. Or else they want it to make a woman feel awful because how dare she?!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Thank you Andy Borowitz:

I can only hope this backfires on them. I want to weep for my country if it doesn't.

Reading The Hunger Games isn't helping with any of my outrage either. It may be time to take a break and catch up on Revenge.
Heh.

RIP Gary Carter. Damn.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Well, they were right - it's not about women's health.
At least, notin the way we usually mean it.
