the other day I came across this insult to women that's so horrible it's almost funny. yeah, it's in the marvel comics fandom and I don't read comics, but the flame war started by pointing out this piece of mysogyny is kind of...well ok, last week on the local news this car thief jumped the rail on the freeway and ended up with the nose of the car wedged between two merging sections of freeway, dangling on the precipice of tipping and falling to his doom.
some things you can't help but stare at, in other words.
the way this chick has handled the trolls and wankery made me fall in love with her a little bit, and I told her so.
the other lesson of the day is, did you know you can freeze a thread on your journal or a comment you've posted in someone else's? I'd never even wondered what that little cube-looking thing was about. good to know. dunno that I'll ever need to know that, but I just thought it was cool.
ETA: oh, and while I'm here, I'm probably going to post more I Burn today or tomorrow, but other than that I won't be around much for the rest of the weekend. I'm going to Houston to spend some QT with my brother-who's-not-my-brother and some old friends
ETA2: yeah, no. I think I was right the first time. sorry.
