More on lila rose from Jezebel
I realize that not everyone knows who Lila Rose is
Abort/escortchat
The clinic where I usually escort was dead - 2 protesters & 8 escorts. Apparently lila rose is in town for some fundraiser & all the protesters are going to be at the planned parenthood. So I biked over to pp but I guess pp opens later than the other clinic so I’m way early. Anyway, lilah rose. Whoo.

arguments I refuse to get into, especially on a friday night
on why it doesn’t matter what the original charge was when an imprisoned woman is forced to give birth while in shackles.
You know, I do not understand why y'all don't rise up and revolt.
It’s bad enough adults aren’t covered here, but how do people not having universal medical insurance for tiny children?
I might be misunderstanding you but we do have SCHIP. I don’t know that much about it, but I’ve seen posters on public transit that lead to believe that in PA, any child without insurance, regardless of the parents’ income level, can be insured through it.
favorite last.fm/pandora stations?
I feel like listening to some music today
Councilman Kenney legislative aide Sarah Sachdev, who helped with the bill, did not know what a fixed-gear bike was, let alone whether the Councilman’s $1000 fine/confiscation penalty would apply to one.— Does the proposed Council law target fixed-gear bikes? :: The Clog :: :: Philadelphia City Paper
In fact, I remain confused as to why schools don't teach Things Fall Apart BEFORE they teach Heart of Darkness.
I mean, I see why the latter still has canonical worth. But to teach it in isolation is just too risky, it seems to me.
we read Things Fall Apart freshman year and didn’t do Heart of Darkness until I was a senior, and I think it was only taught in the AP Lit classes.

I LOVE THE “XXPLOSIVE” NOD SO MUCH
I reblogged this song when ohitsmax first posted it a few weeks ago, but I seriously can’t get it out of my head. so good.
Salon's Sexiest Man Living 2009: James Franco
I won’t fight it Salon. Salon’s list is more fun and far cheekier than People’s, even if some of the choices are just as bad (Levi Johnston?).
Turns out, James Franco is far more interesting than we ever expected. He’s a painter and an aspiring writer who also happens to be a stoner icon. He’s starring as Allen Ginsberg in the “Howl” biopic. He bought the rights to Hart Crane’s “The Broken Tower.” (Hart Crane!) But he’s also a straight-up goof, set to guest star later this season on “30 Rock.” His lengthy story arc on “General Hospital” (premiering Nov. 20) is the WTF celebrity side project of the year.
This kid isn’t the next James Dean. He’s not the next Johnny Depp. Nor is he the next Heath Ledger.
He’s the next James Franco. And he’s Salon’s sexiest man living.
i could get behind this.
