You not a believer?
David Shearer won’t put his leadership straight to a membership vote in February. All I’m saying is he could at least own his tyrannical sense of entitlement, explain that this isn’t a democracy, it’s a cheer-ocracy, and invite us all to suck a big dick.
Styyyyyylish
MeganWegan tagged me, the flirt.
The rules of the game are thus: all ye who are tagged as stylish bloggers have to spill seven interesting beans about yourselves before passing the baton of nomination on to seven others. The world becomes a marginally happier, more knowledgeable place, blog friendships are developed and sealed and everyone gets a unicorn. Well not quite, but it’s a bit of fun at least, right?
- I have two tailbones! They didn’t fuse properly when I was a guppy, I mean infant. The technical term is occult spina bifida. For reals.
- I still dream of being a writer, which is a large part of why I blog. But I hate that living in a capitalist society means I only put value on my writing if I could get paid for it.
- I have never met my biological father, or “sperm donor” as he was always known when I was growing up. And you know, after a long time and a lot of therapy I think I can safely say I’ve got 99 problems but missing my “real daddy” ain’t one.
- I can’t abide people needlessly trying to maintain some kind of “dignity” in relentlessly silly circumstances. The typical example involves people being all “I don’t want to play, I’ll suck” during a massive drunken RockBand marathon.
- I’m an only child. Some say it shows.
- I do not believe there is an upper limit to the number of polka-dot items one can have in one’s wardrobe.
- I think I might be an atheist. I haven’t really given it enough thought to be certain though.
I tag Tangerina, Ally and Octavia! Not seven, but I’m messing up your memeish paradigm! Hahaha, &c.
All aboard the PDD bandwagon

Geekery
Yoinked from Ami Angelwings:
B5 fans, when you see this, post one of your favourite B5 quotes in your journal.
Who am I? I’m Susan Ivanova. Commander. Daughter of Andre and Sophie Ivanov. I am the right hand of vengeance and the boot that is going to kick your sorry ass all the way back to Earth, sweetheart. I am death incarnate, and the last living thing that you’re ever going to see. God sent me.
Best. Episode. Ever.
Aw, shucks
Never let it be said I’ll ignore a good meme (or praise, either!). I’ve been tagged by Deborah (and others) at The Hand Mirror, and darnit if that doesn’t make me go *squee* inside, because I bloody love THM.

Fuck Politeness – angry Aussie feminist/political rants, and I can’t get enough of the series on the Sydney Morning Herald‘s continuing quest to constantly sexualise athletes.
Questioning Transphobia – it’s all in the name, and I do not know what I did before finding Lisa’s awesome work.
Renegade Evolution – the God Emperor of Rome, sometimes Not Safe For Work but always kickin’ ass and taking names.
