theantijoss: (Cat - LOL WTFRU Doin?)
I just realized, probably half the people on my FList don't even know who the BCR are. Hee. I was never a huge fan, but a good friend of mine was. We would put on their records (on her analogue record player that looked like a denim box) and dance around singing and wishing we could wear our roller skates in the house.

I have to say, I'm blessed to have had such a fun, easy childhood. I mean, after the life-threatening disease was taken care of. But I don't even remember that (I was 4 when I had the open heart surgery to fix it) so it doesn't really count. *G*

Boy, I'm all Personal Details Girl today, aren't I?I get babbly about my sleeping habits under here for some reason... )

So ANYWAY... Speaking of LOLCats... and Naps, coincidentally. )

Okay, guys, if you like to write drabbles, you SERIOUSLY have to join us over at [community profile] drabble on DW! [personal profile] crevanfox comes up with the most AWESOME prompts, and turns me on to all kinds of poems, plays and literature that I never would have known about otherwise to boot! Seriously, this weeks prompts involve SPOOFS ON MACBETH. Seriously, go look. I'll be laughing (and thinking and writing drabbles) all day. There's no end date on the prompts, so if more than one come to you, you can keep going (which I do all the time) -- we need more than just the two or three of us to make things REALLY interesting, though. *G*

YOU ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY MUST, AT THE VERY LEAST, READ THE SKINHEAD HAMLET (the Oi! kind, not the Nazi kind). I think I broke something laughing. Here's the last few lines:

FORTINBRAS: No kidding. I see Hamlet's fucked.

HORATIO: Yer.

FORTINBRAS: Fucking shame: fucking good bloke.

HORATIO: Too fucking right.

FORTINBRAS: Fuck this for a lark then. Let's piss off.


BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Hey, you know what else June is besides Pride? It's Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat-Month!



I adopted my sweetie pies in May, but I celebrate all the time. Believe me, if I had my own home, I'd have two more cats, and two dogs besides. I hear people have been dumping their animals at shelters because they're too expensive to keep in this economy, and it really makes me sad. My family is barely getting by, but we would much rather have our furry friends living with us than have, say, cable TV. Just sayin'.

Don't forget to say hi to my eggs. Looks like the pink one is hatching! Yeah, I know, I know...

theantijoss: (Gay Agenda OH NOES!)
Today is the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall Rebellion, which sparked the gay rights movement.

I personally am a pacifist, and I never condone violence as a means to change things. But if I am frustrated with the state of LGBTQ civil rights in this country, I can only dimly imagine how the gays and lesbian of that oppressive day and age must have felt!

Here's a piece from a writer who was there as a young man. It offers a very interesting look at the divisions in the gay community at the time (and still today!) between old-fashioned, closeted fellows and out and flaming sparklers like transvestites and young hustlers. It also busts some myths that have grown up around the riots over the years.

Still -- this is PRIDE MONTH, so it's important for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer and OTHER people and their allies to honor the history of our movement.

I've been watching more Queer Film this month, and so I've added a new category to my Movie Watch '09 List if you want to check it out.

Franklin, Clinton and St. Lawrence counties were designated high-intensity drug trafficking areas Wednesday.

Then how come I can't find any weed?

Heh. That's not true. I know where to get weed. I just can't afford it don't smoke anymore.

You know, I grew up miles from here -- I used to party in Rhode Island in my teens. I had NO IDEA its legal name was actually "State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations"! No, seriously! Now I guess they're trying to change it.

Huh. Did my friends in the rest of New England know about this?

Ahhhh. I really enjoy some internalized homophobia with my coffee in the morning. Somebody go take this guy's Teh Ghey card away. No more gym or dance club for you, buddy! Although I suspect he's one of those old guys who sits in front of his computer bitching about various things all day and night long.

*realizes she is the pot insulting the kettle* Um...

Heh. [community profile] su_herald found a B/A Wedding Cake topper. I want one! Hee.

Awesome -- The Vampire Report this week has RECIPES! You know, for when you have dinner with a vampire, and you don't want to embarrass them by eating when all they can do is drink. I actually want to try this. It's near the end. (I swear, HBO's viral campaigns for True Blood are frakking brilliant!)
