oooh, this is a really good post. the comments are confusing me; i'm not sure if some of them are referring to things that are no longer there. but if you're someone like kiki (the writer of this post)'s friend, or if you know someone like that, go read this.

i just want to quote the whole post. but here's a bit.

S A U C E B O X - where nice is optional:


[...]for many men (like my friend) who believe in the humanity and autonomy of women; who believe in a woman's right to be regarded as a whole person who is more than just the sum of her tits, ass and pussy; who believe that a woman's cultural and societal worth encompasses more than her value as a sexual object; who do not believe that women innately "owe" men sex by virtue of our existence; but yet who also find much of their thoughts, desires and behaviour at least partially driven by their innate sexual attraction to women - attempting to uphold feminist ideals of not objectifying women may often seem like an impossible task.

wiscon short report: that was great! woo!

running wiscon program for three years short report: that was, quite possibly, the most fun i've ever had in an organizational capacity in my whole entire life but i'm glad to be done with it; three years is quite enough.

what else. i brought home concrud, but am mostly done with it now. sadly, it developed into an ear infection, which i am *not* done with, but i am taking antibiotics and hope to be better soon. (although if anyone wants to lend me an ice pick, email me, huh?)

on this upcoming friday, i get my wisdom teeth taken out. i am not so much looking forward to it, although it should go very smoothly. (they came in straight, they're not impacted, nothing funny going on there.) first, it'll be minor surgery. and i haaaate having surgery. second, it'll be the first time in a decade i've had any exciting medical procedures done without having a security nathan there. since i've divorced him, it seems unfair to ask him to come be at the oral surgeons with me, and besides, a security nathan that one is married to is quite different than a security nathan that one is not married to. not so secure, for one thing.

and last but not least: kameron, over at brutal women? not dead! yaaaaay kameron!

braindeath braindeath i'm a turtle.

just because things are only funny to a small number of people doesn't mean they're not hysterically funny to that small number. i'm just saying.

(p.s. meep meep banana banana)
