Okay, folks...

I'm really gonna start blogging again. Soon. Really. Honest.

By the way kids...

Did you know that once you vote in an election, you should trust those you've elected to do the right thing, and not try to have further input?


What? You're writing a letter to your congressman? Why do you want to micromanage Congress?

Note: This post is not actually about the U.S. legislature.

Cryptic? perhaps

Calling people Klan members directly or by implication unless they're actually burning crosses or lynching people, is, at the very least, tacky. When the people you're talking about comprise a mixed race group including most of the POC in a larger very very white group and they're trying to fix an organization that has been unresponsive to all attempts to make it more democratic in the way it works, man, that's really classy.


And I wonder why I get so much use out of the fyyff tag.


Oh, I am feeling so belledame-ish right now.

It's very simple...

You want to read a good summary of l'affaire Polanski, read Kate Harding's piece, or Little Light's. Me, I'm through reading reading about this. People's apologia for this admitted criminal is not funny stupid, it's sad stupid.

AAAARRRRRGH!

If you know me at all (she said to her readership of three counting the two people she lives with and makes read this thing under duress) you'd know that I try to write about things I love and things I hate, but the latter was what would motivate me to post here.

Having said that, give a listen to Rush:



Quoth the Liger, "He's a dick."

And speaking of dickish comments: Dear Mr. Ellison, thinking someone was mean to you first doesn't explain why that tirade you went on included a racial epithet explicit or implied.

... and I repeat, argh.

Gearing up...

I actually wrote something on my ElJay the other day, and came over here to see how long it had been since I blogged. Holy crap, it's been a year!

So, trying to get back in the habit of posting every so often, if only for myself. we'll see how that goes. Stay tuned.

So, Tom Batiuk is responsible for this idiot?

I don't know if I'd ever seen Michael Savage before today. Sure, I'd heard him on the radio a few times, and read a lot of virtriolic crap that spewed from his mouth, but when I read a story today on Joe.My. God. (about his show being dropped from a few stations), I had an epiphany. He smirks like a Funky Winkerbean character. Hell, I think he is a Funky Winkerbean character! Specifically, Les after the time-jump. If you don't know what I mean, count yourself lucky. No, I don't read FW daily, but I do read The Comics Curmudgeon every day, so I probably see the 'bean several times a week, which is plenty. Well, don't just take my word for it. I give you... photographic evidence!

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I rest my case.
