I will rearrange your scales

What a brave thing, to be a women's health physician and perform late-term abortions, and get shot in the arms, and have your clinic bombed, and be targeted and harassed by the government and still keep going.

( Sad now. )

RIP Dr. Tiller. You were (are) one of my heroes.

As of today, I am banking at Commerce. Go to hell, Bank of America. I spit on you and your stupid fees.

Just watched the Brokeback Mountain trailer. (You have to click on the "More Entertainment Video" tab.) This movie may in fact kill me.

OMG OMG OMG 100 ICONS

This is why I was so upset about missing the permanent LJ sale.

OMG OMG

So much to upload, so little time. omg.

I accidentally fell asleep on my bed around 6 or so, and now I'm bright-eyed and bushy tailed at midnight. I'm never going to sleep tonight, so I'm being productive by downloading pictures of Scarlett Johannsen. I want to make a wallpaper of her looking pretty. Which shouldn't be hard seeing as she looks absolutely gorgeous 99.4% of the time.

Limewire rocks. Thank you, to the person on my flist who rec'd it.

NEW SERENITY TRAILER OMG.

I need food. I missed dinner, such as it is in my house.

Has everyone downloaded Google Earth? Zooming in from outer space down to your house is incredibly fun and nifty and a little weird. Good for driving directions too. Unlike mapquest or mapsonus and all those other sites, with Google Earth you can see the topography in 3-D. The program's supposedly still in beta, but I highly recommend.

Linking to No Harmm from my userinfo, because it is way overdue. Few things upset me as much as the idea of people cutting up younger, helpless people's genitalia just because they can, or because they've always done it, because they think God wants it, because they think it's "cleaner"...whatever. This seems to strike some people as strange, but the circumcision of healthy male babies breaks my heart and makes me very nearly as angry as FGM.

Reading about the sexual experiences of men who've chosen to be circumsized later in life really upsets me, but at least they chose it for themselves. Reading about mothers who regret circumsizing their sons upsets me possibly even more. Gah. Whereas FGM is just fucked, but at least activists are *doing* something about it. Nobody seems to care about foreskins.

My tummy hurts.

Watched the 2nd half of Pet Sematary last night. I don't care what anyone says--I love the book and that movie Does Things to me.

Finished watching Veronica Mars. Amazing as hell, but wtf are they going to do for next season?

I have a lot of crap to do today. I should go look into that.

I spent a few annoying hours yesterday finding corporate addresses on company websites, and/or calling their customer service lines to get them, and writing letters to 10 pharmacies with various positions on pharmacist refusals. I thought I'd urge other people to do the same, and figured I'd save you the trouble of finding out all these corporations' addresses.

If you don't have the time to write and send physical letters, please, send the form letters on this page of saveroe.com. If you do have time to write a couple of letters, whether to thank the pharmacy you personally use, politely bitch them out for their bad policy, or simply urge one of the unknowns to adopt a better one, PLEASE do. Your letters count. Write your own from scratch, or adapt the letters linked to from the above page. Either one is great.

Xposted to birthcontrol and fem_activism.

And what a revenge it was. We should all achieve such spectacular vengeance in our lifetimes.

Episode III made me very, very happy in all the ways I and II failed to do. I've read at least a hundred reviews at this point, counting all the posts on LJ, and I have nothing terribly new or special to say regarding the movie.

Nevertheless, ( some things I want to note. )

I can't wait to see it again. Maybe this weekend, when my breasts are a little more securely attached.

Dorky costume pictures to follow.
