Teenager struggled with bullying before taking his life
Cool article in a lot of ways. Important to point out as well that bullying, while traditionally thought as an action done and taken up by children or teens, is a behavior that is taken up by adults at times too. And by all means any form of bullying anyone should be frowned on by society regardless...

Teenager struggled with bullying before taking his life
My point isn't that people don't have the right to their religion, certainly not. My point is that people have to stop making gross untrue sweeping statements about it (that do not target individuals as bullying does, but precipitates an unhealthy and untrue belief system about GLBT people) and that...

Teenager struggled with bullying before taking his life
I saw this yesterday and was really upset about it. As others have said, so long as speaking badly or making fun of LGBT people is deemed acceptable or even desirable by a large amount of society then we're going to have this problem. It is great that some schools are taking measures about bullying,...

God, when i read shit like this I feel old. I have to say I do keep up facebook because it: a - allows me to keep in touch with people I do a shit job of keeping in touch with other wise and b - because i can share pictures and therefore do not need to zip and send them 200 times. But the rest of it...

Yeah, the whole 'men are led by their stomachs'. Not so accuarate. Or at least it's not as strong as the power of our loins. Rejoyce women!

Abstinence only vs Sex Education
Couldn't find the 'flogging the dead horse' smiley, but yeah, I'm doing it. Because of this article . I do applaud the school for changing with the needs when things proved inadequate for the students. I do understand that there is a strong belief of what should be done, but any parent can tell you ...

Women really do have the power
You know, I love articles like this . It's like the one where the women in India gang together and beat the stuffing out of men that abuse their wives. I am not saying that women should be over men or visa versa - we should ideally be treated equally. However it's obvious that in many areas that's n...

Chronic pain is a bitch. It's hard to explain to people how it is, because you don't have wounds or other things to point directly at and say 'here's where I hurt'. I've cut myself deeply or broken a toe and found that pain negligible or completely dealable compared to what I can get on a daily basi...

My truly mystic brain has decided that it's the right time to act up with the psudo smell thing again. It did it about a year ago for a six month period. And it can't pick nice smells - I've been stuck with cigarette smoke for a week now but other brain favorites seem to be dog poo, cat urine (yes I...

The Government doesn't get the jobs crisis
I think we're in for a very rocky time of things before it will stabilize. There's too many issues - the economy, drought, natural disasters and problems with the oil market (as in production will eventually plateau but the demand is getting higher - this will cause huge problems in everything). So....

Oh no Slarti - I'm sorry to hear that. It's a crappy situation and a half - I've been there. I hope that he didn't get her too bad. My daughter still has a small scar under her right eye from our cat.

I'm in love with the bomber jacket like C - the rest of it I'm totally meh on, particularily because his tail scrunchies don't 'go' or make sense with the rest of his outfit, unless you count the patched knees being totally up the same kid level as bright yellow and orange scrunchies are. The scrunc...

Digital Comics -- Can They Make The Leap?
I used to be completely for paper. Loved the feel and even the smell - was all part of the experience. Now I find that I actually can read books way easier on my e-reader. Making the leap to comics on tablet isn't much of one at all and it's way more environmentally friendly. Though I do feel bad fo...

It's all about what 'ending' means too. Ending as in bam, world blows up like those crappy old fake world blowing up montages they had in the slew of 70's-80's movies? Nah. Ending as in over a relatively short historical time period there being a drastic change that therefore forces some major serio...

It seems everywhere I turn around nowadays there's news articles about specific churches dedicated to preaching how the world is ending (but lets face it that's been happening for like...2000 years nearly).

Neat looking trailer and I did cheer for the bamfing silhouette. Rather trippy, but that may just be me. It would be a shame if he just got shafted to a non-playable character because his powers are just plain cool to see played. I'm shit at games so I generally buy them and make my husband and son ...

You know, the thing about any fandom that I've found is that there tends to be 'camps' or 'groups' that push a pairing or character or event happening. Sometimes that means that there are cross purposes as there would be one group pushing for one hook up and another pushing for another (and then the...
