Sacred Eros ("Word, Image, Flesh, Spirit") / [CineMental] "Happy Endings?"

Sacred Eros - Thursday, May 28, 7:00pm in the Perkins Room Our theme for this month is "Word, Image, Flesh, Spirit."  Sexually explicit writing and images have been around for centuries, made more widely available with the printing press and camera, and even more so with the Internet.  Some say such words and images are inherently bad and harmful -- or are they?  Can erotica be good for you, ...

I am an Allist. I believe in everything.

Have you ever considered converting to another religion? View other answers Um, no. Because in my world view conversion to one religion would mean that I deny the truths of the others.

linky in spirit

We watched Dial M for Murder last night. I had high hopes for it, having enjoyed Hitchcock's "North by Northwest" a few weeks ago, but this was even better! The opening 15 minutes or so were packed with tension, and although sometimes older movies don't hold up today since their twists have become terribly commonplace, this one holds up quite well.

Artist Sign-Up

... Genre: None given Pairing: Clark/Lex Summary: The 12 days between the winter solstice and the official new year were known to the Children of the Oak as the Time Between.

A Little Inspiration: nolagal's "Shelter from the Storm"

nolagal has just revealed that she wrote, Shelter from the Storm . I think this piece captures the ideal Fuckapalooza spirit. The main pairing is slash, but EVERYBODY is doing it. The tone is funny, fluid, free, and sexy. It's just wonderful. This piece inspired the Love Potion #9 challenge and also was a tone-setter for my thinking about the orgy challenge, which, by grand coincidence,...

... nodded. "That's me. Who are you and why do you look so fuckin' freaked out?" She flicked some more ash at his feet for the hell of it. Hidan chuckled. This girl had a lot of spirit... "May I sit down?" he asked, grinning at her and squatting down next to her without waiting for her reply, resting his wrists on his knees casually. He was careful to keep a little space between them, though....

Prayer of the Day

... and turns them down the wrong path. I have seen how he manipulates people to do his will and unknowingly take part in his plan to destroy families and destroy lives. Please, through the power of Your Holy Spirit, keep me alert and watchful against the devil's plots. Help me to recognize and resist his efforts, and to turn to You for help in all things.

... Matilda gave her a HUGE grin. "Okay, okay," Amber said. "THAT'S THE SPIRIT," Matilda cheered, patting her on the back. "Alright, there's a girl," Larry ...!" she shouted, putting her arms in the air. Amber laughed. "There's Gryffindor spirit," Larry said, amused. Matilda jumped down and ran down the staircase. "It's the spirit of what's bloody right," she told them when they caught up. "That ...

She Blooms in Tears - Yuna/Lulu (FFX)

... the waves would have risen under you. You remember how pyreflies tickled, drawing up invisible lashes of water beneath your feet. Lulu is so alive now. She laughs as she never used to, sharing in your own bubbling spirit without reserve. "Is this what you wanted to wake me so early for?" she says. "No, it's...look, there." You point to a flower at the top of the bank: white, broad, luminous, a ...
