no-longer-quite-as-rainy link friday

I finally took the plunge and ordered a 23andMe kit. I got the kit in the mail last night and spit into the tube (they wanted a lot of spit so it took 5 minutes to do), sealed it up and sent it off this morning.

f-word friday

...it: The Democratic Party is not for women : "If feminists are upset that such "victories" keep coming at the expense of reproductive rights, well, that's because we just don't understand politics beyond our silly single issue!

writing: 1, politics: 0

Hahahaha. Oh, me. I'm still writing my Torchwood story. It's now over 5,000 words, and it turns out it has a sex scene (who knew? after all that talking ) that just. won't. end. So this seems a good moment to just say that this news sucks! Apparently the rejection of a pro-gay political party is a-okay, because they would corrupt Filipino youth. I'm so fed up with that kind of homophobic ...

Ссылки на память

За последнее время много чего произошло. Под катом - несколько ссылок на всякие тексты по поводу текущих событий. Обама вернулся из Азии с пустыми руками . Совсем . Единственное его достижение - поясной поклон , который он отвесил микадо. Больше ему показать нечего . Ни из Китая, ни из Японии или Кореи он ничего внятного не привез, хотя надо было. Приехав домой, Обама обнаружил, что ...

It's not that kind of book, and in fact, it's more depressing because of it; the message is much closer to, "Wow, all politics involves some level of corruption no matter what!" It's very apparent in the book that he's not remotely an ideologue, only joining the Republicans because of convenience and for practical reasons, making the ...

"I disagree with the Obama administration on that," Palin told Walters. "I believe that the Jewish settlements should be allowed to be expanded upon, because that population of Israel is going to grow. More and more ...
