		<description><![CDATA[Look&#8230;I work in website design.  I understand &#8220;social media&#8221; as much as any socially incompetent, RPG-playing, XKCD-following, yes-I-have-a-Spock-fetish girl can possibly be expected to.  But, can we be honest here?  I am flummoxed by the &#8216;I like it&#8221; phenomenon. I think we can blame Facebook for this one, but it&#8217;s spawned well beyond the realms [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just received a forwarded email (copied in the first comment) from a representative of Conservative America, offering terms of settlement for divorce.  As it came to me, I reckon I am a fit delegate to respond to the offer.  My response is as follows: Dear American Conservatives, righties, social retardists, despots, fascists, and Palin [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the last few days, there has been a rash of reports commenting on the Republican Party&#8217;s apparent embrace of violent terminology. You can read about it lots of places, but in case you somehow missed it, here&#8217;s an example. So there appears to be a trend, not necessarily amongst all Republicans (I still like [...]]]></description>

I chose Barack Obama, as did many other MoveOn members. So many, in fact, that he received your endorsement for the Presidency; support which undoubtedly had a [...]]]></description>

Lovecraft wasn&#8217;t the most famous horror-writer ever, and I explained that he was a little too &#8220;out there&#8221; to ever garner a larger readership, until recently (admittedly, I suspect his readership is still not huge, but it&#8217;s growing).

But tonight&#8217;s surfing brought me to a story of some girl who got arrested for her &#8220;too revealing&#8221; prom dress, and then an assortment of Hollywood &#8220;gaffes&#8221; wherein some starlet or other showed too much nipple, and finally I was compelled to do a search for &#8220;men burkhas&#8221; which, I [...]]]></description>

After all, what could be more important than teaching children about their own bodies, and encouraging each individual to make responsible choices when it comes to reproduction? And yet, the debate continues to rage, [...]]]></description>
