Forecast calls for a chance of tomfoolery followed by a torrential shitstorm. Bring your pets in.

With abortion and sex crimes as part of the monthly topic? Hell yeah.

Yeah, but now it's officially sanctioned. And why do people keep looking at me, I've never done an abortion post. Sex crimes, yes, but I have my limits when it comes to causing wank.

*fingers crossed* I am burnt out on those topics. I might do something on prostitution though.

That would be really interesting. And it's kind of what I was thinking too. I'm surprised tbh considering how much upset there's been that we've been talking so much about some of these topics.

I'm halfway through writing it, it should be up within an hour! And people are always going to complain no matter what, don't ever let that be a consideration on a topic you wish to post about.

Oh, good! I look forward to reading it. (I have no idea where you stand on this issue, so no idea what this post will look like...should be interesting!)

And yeah, I'm not saying it's influenced any posts I might have made, just thought it was weird that that was voted the monthly topic - surprising considering that a lot of people seem to really not want to talk about some of this shit.

What kind of flaming are you talking about? I haven't dealt with a whole lot, except from one or two really extreme people.

Well, you might be right about that. Too bad there's no way to make a post and use a magic spell to block all flaming that might result...

"Richard Dawkins" is a social construct.

Absolutely. He is a myth created to make Atheists feel like they actually have an argument :)

no no no, if Richard Dawkins didn't exist, we'd have to create him.

Dailyquote:
"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
