  • RNC Threatens Bible-Banning to Motivate Fundie Voters

    You’ve probably already heard this but sometimes I blog things to remind myself that they actually happened. The front of the mailer has a picture of the bible with the letters ‘BANNED’ on top with the letters ‘ALLOWED’ over two attractive men looking at each other and holding hands — a very nice picture by […]

  • Alan Keyes Daughter is Gay?

    Nutcase Repub for Illinois Senate Alan Keyes: If we embrace homosexuality as a proper basis for marriage, we are saying that it’s possible to have a marriage state that in principle excludes procreation and is based simply on the premise of selfish hedonism. Maybe someone should tell his out and proud daughter:

  • ‘Whatever' is Not a Retort

    I need to get something out into the open. The word ‘Whatever‘ is not a retort. I’m serious. Maybe I’m watching too much Judge Hatchett Divorce Court Texas Justice Moral Court Judge Mathis Judge Judy but to turn to someone you disagree with and say Whatever really doesn’t make you the winner of the conversation. […]

  • Migration Cont'd

    Continuing the migration to WordPress – moved the new folder into the main public directory. Flipped archives, links/blogroll and categories to their own links for a bit to see if I like that. I’m not sure if I do. I think a blogroll should be on the front page – it’s more polite: if someone […]

  • Atkins Targets Schools

    From Yahoo News: A new partnership between Atkins Nutritionals Inc. and major education groups is giving heartburn to critics, who say schools shouldn’t promote the popular but controversial low-carb diet, even by association. This makes absolutely no sense. Until the USDA and related industries stop calling the shots in schools, children’s nutrition is going to […]

  • What Kerry Should Say

    Via Sam from Burnt Orange Report: What Kerry should say during the debates: I understand where the President is coming from. He appears very resolute on TV. But let me be very clear and decisive about one thing right now- if 3 years into my presidency I am where he is right now and 1.6 […]

  • Trance Vibrator for Playstation 2

    Game Girl Advance says: As the levels got more advanced, so did the vibrations… revving up to an intense pulsing throbbing… “Oh, God!”Pretty soon the levels and the images onscreen were just a faint blur to me. I knocked off my glasses and leaned back. I was in a daze. From far away, it seemed, […]

  • I am Jack's Latent Sexuality.

    Nope, it’s not the latest computer generated gay porn. It’s a screenshot from the upcoming Fight Club video game. (inspired by a post a while ago on Fleshbot)

  • Encoding the Sacred Feminine

    My bout with The DaVinci Code had me looking a little more into modern tales and movies for signs of the ‘sacred feminine.’ They remind me of Robert Johnson’s handy booklets He, She and We, not to mention Owning Your Own Shadow (this is where my sister sighs and mutters about narrow, Westernized views of […]

  • Ashcroft's Convictions: 0

    Some will see this as we aren’t pushing civil liberties back enough – others will say that that approach isn’t working. Either way: (via TalkLeft) The Detroit case had marked the only terrorist conviction obtained from the Justice Department’s detention of more than 5,000 foreign nationals in anti-terrorism sweeps since 9/11. So Ashcroft’s record is […]
