Dis Christmas Food
It is killing me. I swear to god, I would not be surprised if I’d eaten a pound of butter in the past day and a half. A POUND. DAY AND A HALF. That’s obscene. AND MY STOMACH KNOWS IT.
…I abuse the Shift key.
I’m so looking forward to going raw. Well. Mostly raw. I like rice and beans too much to give ‘em up forever.
I’m spending tomorrow filing away recipes...

Hmmm.
Having a fair amount of music written means I gotta make the decision about how committed I am to Creative Commons beating Traditional Copyright as the new content credit model.
I think I’m leaning towards Creative Commons, Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike International License.

Oi vey.
#MooreAndMe has been weird. Intense. Nuanced emotions. I got blocked by Keith Olbermann. THAT was weird. I got retweeted by Sady Doyle. That was awesome.
I don’t know if it’s continuing past today. Michael Moore acknowledged that rape accusations need to be taken seriously.
(Technically, he said WOMEN’S accusations need to be taken seriously, but he was under pressure on live...

Awkward.
Tonight, someone changed a bottle that said Grape Juice to read Rape Juice, and I didn’t laugh, and then it was commented on with immense second-hand embarrassment by somebody, ‘I TOLD you she wouldn’t think it was funny!’ And, you know, I didn’t. But I felt like this weird kind of douche for just not laughing. And I don’t know if it was totally a thing, but it...

But the #MooreAndMe Twitter protest makes me feel super riled up and angry and proud and supported all at once. And if any of you guys have a Twitter and feel that there is no excuse for rape apology, and there are ways to give both sides lawful room to present their case instead of victim-smearing, and that Michael Moore and Keith Olbermann need to recognize their bullshit - you should probably...

Maybe I just need to become a hacker.
I just find it so thrilling to read about the culture of hackers and to see it in action in different ways. There are so many ways that technology builds walls between people, or at the very least teller windows. We don’t have to interact directly, and in some ways, that does just create a social crutch which makes it hard to make connections in real life. I know that whenever I’ve...

A bunch of my friends are playing punk music on the radio right now, and I’m listening to it as I’m watching video of the testimony presented at the congressional hearings on Project MKULTRA and related drug/radiation/mind control experimentation. At first I was like, yeah, punk rock and conspiracy theory, two things I love! Then I was like, uuhhhh, MKULTRA and Project Artichoke were...

Urgh.
Life does these things to me all the time where it’s like, “Hey, rotten shit is going to be abounding in your life. There will occasionally be weird upsides to the things that are definite, and infinite emotional repercussions for things which are in flux. Have fun!”
The past few months have been stressful, and it seems like everyone is having stress times, so the query I put...

megaera:
Now that Tumblr has decided to stop being a bitch, I’ve decided it’s time to answer this question. I’ve been putting it off, because I had to prepare my thoughts first.
Yes, eager reader, I’m about to talk about rugby.
Rugby is quite possibly the best sport ever. The only sport that would come…
My sister is really boss in life, in rugby, and in explaining rugby.
My life, my choices, etc.
The security guard in this ER just woke me up to make sure I wasn’t homeless.
For once, this doesn’t reflect on the system so much as my clothing choices.
Augh.
Due to a sequence of events beyond my control, I am being forced to watch the American Country Awards.

There is a girl in the audience all dolled up and wearing A TSA BASEBALL CAP.
So many feelings right now.
