pisceans:
Strive to be the best you can be now and in the coming weeks with a New Moon occurring today in your sign, dear Pisces. You are likely to make changes that reflect or alter your personal needs, plans, and manner. Your desires are changing in important and sometimes surprising ways, and you may be in the mood for some form of makeover, which is not all physical. Others tend to follow...

tagged for ten facts about myself!
1. I’m a redhead. The only thing I’m allergic to is ginger.
2. I used to be a manual laborer, delivering hay in New England and Canada. I have permanent freckle-lines from tank tops and the necklace I wore those two summers. I was once jacked. Child labor saved my life.
3. I have a scar on my forehead from being dropped down a marble staircase as a toddler. I still have the broken...

amyrebeccaklein:
When I heard the news, the first thing that came to mind was the murder to Mia Zapata from the Gits. The similarities stood out to me—a woman walking home late at night—Esme from a party, Mia from a bar, the way the two women loved music and used it both to inform and to uplift, and the seemingly random nature of the crime. Except neither crime was as...

This is awesome, and really brings me closer to identifying with queer. Something I’ve felt restricted from.

1969 Playboy Interview Marshall MacLuhan
PLAYBOY: If personal freedom will still exist--although restricted by certain consensual taboos--in this new tribal world, what about the political system most closely associated with individual freedom: democracy? Will it, too, survive the transition to your global village?
MCLUHAN: No, it will not. The day of political democracy as we know it today is finished. Let me stress again that individual freedom itself will not be submerged in the new tribal society, but it will certainly assume different and more complex dimensions. The ballot box, for example, is the product of literate Western culture--a hot box in a cool world--and thus obsolescent. The tribal will is consensually expressed through the simultaneous interplay of all members of a community that is deeply interrelated and involved, and would thus consider the casting of a "private" ballot in a shrouded polling booth a ludicrous anachronism. The TV networks' computers, by "projecting" a victor in a Presidential race while the polls are still open, have already rendered the traditional electoral process obsolescent. In our software world of instant electric communications movement, politics is shifting from the old patterns of political representation by electoral delegation to a new form of spontaneous and instantaneous communal involvement in all areas of decision making. In a tribal all-at-once culture, the idea of the "public" as a differentiated agglomerate of fragmented individuals, all dissimilar but all capable of acting in basically the same way, like interchangeable mechanical cogs in a production line, is supplanted by a mass society in which personal diversity is encouraged while at the same time everybody reacts and interacts simultaneously to every stimulus. The election as we know it today will be meaningless in such a society.
