mf_luder_xf1). More Sex Talk
Frankly, I don't know what to think about this article. Jail seems too much, indeed. I don't think 13 year-olds having sex with each other (consensual) need to go to juvie. I think they need better sex ed. At the same time, there's always the issue of judgement and do-they-know-enough-for-it-to-be-consensual. Also, where does one make the age cut? 17 and fifteen, ok. 14 and 14, ok. But what about 17 and 13? You can't say no crime as long as both are under 18. But you can't say 2 years. Is there some kind of magic transition that happens if the kids are 12 and 14? What about 14 and 16? Kids are always going to have sex. Can we really jail them for that? Or should we simply do our best to teach them?

2). Marriage? Maybe. Living Together? No way.
These people are sheer geniuses. As long as kids know they're loved and see both parents, is it a crime? So it's a little unusual. So is two dads or two moms. So is being raised solely by Grandma. Unusual is normal and beautiful!!
For some couples, distance is key to closeness
3). SG-1 Macro.
And those of you in bandom or who have a love and/or hate relationship with boy bands will cry at it's hilarity. Poor Cliff Simon...
Goa'uld...or Boy Band Singer?
4). Fetish...For Shoes.
I love shoes. I love artisticpornsensualness. So this? Was quite a treat. Not very work safe.
My favs have to be the black, high-heeled psuedo point shoes.

5). Incest and Fandom Poll
No, you don't have to be into incest fics to take part! Nor do you NOT have to be. Take part in a little poll, and write some comments.
Poll: Do real life siblings make fictional sibling incest pairings less interesting?
My own comment(s)/meta to the poll
6). Heroes and the WGA Strike
I keep trying to tell myself this is just TV. It's not my life and livelihood at stake, here. And yet, if this rumor is true? I will be very upset. The shows are rarely as good after the creator leaves. Just look at West Wing. In addition, it seems this season of Heroes will only last until Dec 11th.
Kring To Give The Fuck Up On NBC Pigmasters?
Ok, in honor of the fact that I like to gather random links and post them all at one time instead of each individually (in hopes people will actually pay attention rather than going 'OMG Lucy is posting AGAIN'), I have decided to give these posts a tag. Thus: grab bag.
