Everyday Ignorance: On the inside
I’m seeing this too often and I want it to stop.
I talk about asexuality and someone responds with “I know what that’s like, because sometimes my sex drive is low and I don’t want sex at all. And you don’t see me calling it ‘asexual.’”
A demisexual person talks about the difference between normative sexuality and demisexuality, and someone responds with “I sometimes have sex with people I’m not attracted to. And I didn’t want to have sex with my partner until I knew hir better. You don’t see me calling it ‘demisexual.’”
A gray-asexual person talks about the difference between normative sexuality and graysexuality, and someone responds with “So what? Sounds like you’re just really picky. I don’t want to have sex with everything that moves either, and you don’t see me calling it ‘graysexual.’”

I don’t know how he can smile so sweet and so filthy at the same time.

What what what are you doing?
“The Iron Throne is mine by rights. All those who deny that are my foes.”
“The whole of the realm denies it, brother,” said Renly. “Old men deny it with their death rattle, and unborn children deny it in their mothers’ wombs. They deny it in Dorne and they deny it on the Wall. No one wants you for their king. Sorry.”
A Song of Ice and Fire: This could all have been prevented if we had a sassy gay king.

Like a tree in which there are three blackbirds
The deal with the bookstore is coming together, which is awesome but is also terrifying - I feel like I’m at the top of a roller coaster and starting now everything will be going very fast. In a few more months I could be the owner of my own bookstore, and how awesome is that? On the other hand, it will wipe out every dollar I’ve saved over the past few years, and I won’t be in a position to save at the same rate again.
My mother suggested that rather than get the store, I think about using half to build a house, and the rest to adopt a baby - which are my main desires in life. But if I did that, I wouldn’t have a job, and would sit at home getting stir-crazy. With the bookstore, I could theoretically save up for those two things - eventually.
What I don’t mention to her is the third option, which is to leave the money to her and kill myself. For some reason people don’t like that one.

QI 6.11 “Films and Fame”
“It’s great to make someone very clever fall apart like that.” ~ Emma Thompson, on how she enjoys terrifying Stephen Fry with her naked breasts.
“The ironic thing now is, women don’t generally have pubes anymore. I kind of have slightly fond memories of pubes from the eighties.” ~ Alan Davies
Also, David Mitchell’s look of delight when Stephen Fry reveals the wooshing sound of doors opening in Star Wars is made by a sheet of paper sliding out of an envelope.
I adore all four of them. I don’t know about this other guy, but he does an excellent Alan Rickman imitation: “I don’t play villains. I play very interesting people.”

I have so much in common with Amy that it feels rather narcissistic to find her attractive, but. Um.

Kimono Contest on April 8th, 2012 at NHK Hall. Furisode, Tomesode, Casual, Men’s, Children’s, and Foreigner’s sections. Tons more pictures here.
My mother and I got lucky - my kitsuke sensei had two tickets to this that she couldn’t use (because she had plans for a golf outing - I can’t get over the contrast of this elegant kimono teacher with a golf obsession ; ) My mother enjoyed the show, even knowing nothing about wearing kimono. But for me it was somehow touching, seeing every motion they made and thinking, “I know how to do that!” Mind, my top speed is an eighth of theirs…
