Here! News To Make You Vomit!

There's nothing I love more than when a bunch of people get together, tell the most ridiculously graphic and gruesome birth stories ever, and then in the same breath tell me that I should reconsider not having kids; it's great! Um. May I suggest that if you're going to try to convince someone to do something, you shouldn't start with all the NEGATIVES first? Jesus fucking Christ.

So. Here's another reason why sometimes, I seriously wonder why I find men physically attractive. The Pregnant Co-Worker shared this gem today; apparently she was irritated at the Father of Her Child, and he told her that she couldn't be angry with him, because he gave her something beautiful and precious.

I seriously, seriously almost lost my goddamn lunch right then and there. If anyone ever said that to me, I would return said beautiful and precious in the form of a swift kick to the nuts. Just saying.

Let's see. What else is going on? Not much at the moment; working a lot, very much looking forward to my week-long vacation starting in May. BEACH, HERE I COME! So because there's a severe lack of events going on personally, here are some links to entertain or enrage you. Whichever comes first, I suppose.

The feminist movement has risen again. I wasn't aware it had ever stopped.

While I think that it's fantastic that more attention is being shed on the fact that Hillary Clinton has endured a ridiculous amount of sexism during her campaign, I really want to beat a good majority of the population with a "NO SHIT, ASSHOLE!" stick. The problem is not that sexism has suddenly reared its ugly head again; they're just being more upfront about it now. It's always been there, in seemingly little and barely noticeable ways. It's a fucking shame that it's taken THIS long to acknowledge that sexism, despite the efforts of the feminist movement, had never been conquered in the first place.

There is now a book explaining to children all the different, totally acceptable reasons why Mommy got plastic surgery. Excuse me while I fly into a murderous rampage.

Do I even have to go into all the reasons why this is so truly fucked up? I have to keep reminding myself homicide, not suicide, because Jesus Christ, this is a special brand of crazy that I just can't wrap my brain around.

Californians, it's time to step up to the plate. Vote no on this shit now.


In the case of a nuclear act, three things will endure; cockroaches, Cher, and anti-abortionists. This is the third time this piece of legislation has been up for vote, and quite frankly, aren't you a little sick of your congressmen putting so much time and energy into something like this?

On that note, shower time is upon me, then bed. Fabulous.
