Express yourself, don't repress yourself

One of the teeny things I want from now on now that I have my own place: a bookshelf devoted solely to books about gender/queer theory and sexuality.

I only own three such books right now, but I have quite a few on my wish list (how the fuck do I not own Gender Outlaws or Gender Trouble>?). Right now the books I have are on the shelf in the closet to keep them away from my grandmother while I was moving, but once we get things settled and I have the cash for another bookshelf, they're going out in the open (well, in a shelf in my room, so still behind a door but you know). I refuse to be ashamed of the fact I'm trying to become a better being in all ways, including sexual.

Shakesville, on Glen Beck's 'Restoring Honor' rally

You keep using that word....

"I will take it as further evidence that God does not exist that Lincoln was not momentarily reanimated just so he could kick Glenn Beck's ass."

I still cannot get over the sheer AUDACITY of having this hate really on the Lincoln Memorial on the anniversary of MLK's 'I Have A Dream' speech. Also, MLK's niece? Please to be shutting the fuck up now; it'd be nice if your uncle could stop spinning for a bit.

Been blasting the Scissor Sisters all day, and realised that I really want to do one of those portraits that a lot of gender variant folks do, with one half of the face all glam and the other side very masculine or just plain. If I could walk around every day life done up like that, it would be so perfect.

After I get my Halloween costume stuff, I should really buy some makeup (and maybe a wig) and let K glam me up.
