Anyone still object to the death penalty?

The Difference

After all the bullshit is flensed off and boiled away, there really is only one basic difference between people who want to legalize everything a person can do to themself, and those who want to criminalize everything they don't like.

The difference is between two simple statements.

"You shouldn't do that," and "You can't do that."

The difference between "should not" and "can not" is that, with the former, the option "to" still exists, rather than being obliterated.

Everything else is semantics, bullshit, politics, bullshit, politics, and bullshit.

Responsible people should be allowed to live with the former, not be bullied, cowed, and browbeaten by the latter.

To everyone who deigns to say what I can and cannot do, I say, "You should watch your ass."

Male Mail

In the post yesterday:

- ominous styrofoam block, with faint wisps of dry ice fog coming out (from Omaha Steaks, courtesy of my buddy Baal)

- clever collections letter wrapped around Joss Whedon In Space DVDs, courtesy of firefly_pilot and fenixinthedark (they're trying to bring me to the dark side. srsly.)

- Power & NPC shirts, and clank-as-fuck dice, from ThinkGeek

So, apparently I'm an uncultured gaming and computer nerd who likes red meat.

I am shocked. Shocked, I tell you.



Also, a cell phone bill. Bah.

Enough outta me for the time being

mighty_man arrives in about two hours for a visit. Time to inflict him on some of the Tampaxen/Gothopians.
