It only takes one twit in an orgy to give everyone syphilis.

"Well, she said it was good for us--makes the sex sexier. Who are we to argue against sexier sex?"

Naomi Klein makes me so very happy.

Concealment of what is said or done.

Thanks, Billy. That's a beautiful definition, let's break it down.

Things said and done are finished. They happened. They exist and are not subject to cosmic erasure. To conceal is intentional and premeditated. Concealment is not a granted right, it is not a default, it is not a given. It is a chore, and to expect it is to live in self-deceptive isolation.

Dear Trinity,

Sometimes, on a slow news day, I'm reminded of how precariously close the world is to total and complete nuclear annihilation. I cry. I curse the neurosis that causes a beautiful mind to create such a profane weapon. But that's who we are. Human. It is an absurd thing.


Maybe we could've been friends, if only you weren't a bomb.
