"Personhood" bill approved by Virginia Senate... →
Note that this apparently no longer affects access to birth control or in-vitro fertilization, but as with the trans-vaginal ultrasound bill, it’s a rather shaky improvement on a sad, sad piece of legislation.  What is with VA right now?

VA Will Not Require Invasive Ultrasounds →
YES!!  Unfortunately, I can’t say I’m completely happy about this. There are still some serious problems.  A) This bill was still allowed to reach the governor’s desk. It should have been laughed down long ago. B) Read the governor’s statement about why he didn’t sign the bill and allowed for some “choice” in the matter. He is hardly enthusiastic. Yes,...

Birth Control Isn't Really About "Health," It's... →
Birth control isn’t about my health unless by health you mean, my capacity to get it on, to have a happy, joyous sex life that involves an actual male partner. The point of birth control is to have sex that’s recreational and non-procreative. It’s to permit women to exercise their desires without the sword of Damocles of unwanted pregnancy hanging gloomily over their heads. It’s fascinating...

“I do not think it is wrong to envision a life with me, in your own words, with me as your only love, the only love you’ll ever need to find. I have envisioned the same thing with you. You are an amazing person who I absolutely adore, and we function perfectly together. I can’t imagine someone more wonderful than you, which is why I adamantly did not want to let you go at the...

Missing London.  Praying for snow.  Wishing for hot chocolate.  All the things that I want but can’t have right now.  It’s not too hard to remember that life is great regardless of the things I can’t have, but sometimes I lose sight of that.

“We need people to ask the tough questions, and they’re not. What’s more important: the Bible or the Constitution? Do they want theocracy? Do they want Christianity as the official religion, and if so, which version?” Silverman stated, adding that despite his Republican affiliation, he feels himself without a candidate that supports his beliefs. “Hopefully what we’ll do is get people talking about...
