Thoughts that have nothing to do with the new year.

Check it out, The Weepies on the tv! Deb Talan continues to be the cutest. I know nothing about this Dirty Sexy show but it looks boring.


As much as the Obama transition team is making questionable and hurtful decisions *cough* Rick Warren and Sanjay Gupta *cough*, they bring us some very exciting news on equality as well: the Ledbetter Fair Pay Act is going to be the first vote in the new Congress, along with another measure to protect those who disclose their earnings to encourage transparency. This puppy got filibustered in the Senate with the help of candidate McCain's ambivalent nastiness last year, it's enormously exciting that it's coming back and a strong showing out the gate for equal rights. You can tell your congressperson how you feel about the matter right here.

This is a really good argument against speed cameras. Leave it to over-privledged high school students to invent a more convincing argument for the fallibility of using machines as sole evidence of wrongdoing than law scholars in Texas, Maryland and Iowa.


I am thinking about getting myself a Tumblr. Getting back to school has made my brain kick back on all at once -- I'm excited about classes but I also want to be doing a bunch of other writing and sundry projects. I only worry that I am too verbose for the scrapbook format. Hm.
