Three gay-teen suicides in the last four weeks. Absolute and deadly manifestations of all the anti-gay legislation running rampant. Terribly sad.
And thus, the climate of hate-mongering that has resurged in the last two yearsbegins to publicly claim innocent lives.
THIS. MUST. STOP.
It’s actually four teen suicides in the last...

Second Chances...
If at first, they won’t concede, Beat them harder, make them bleed. Break the ground, plant the seed, Use the fear, it’s all you need! Hear the cries Of circumstances. Here there are no Second chances. If at first, they will not learn, Let the razor take its turn. Cut until they show concern, Then fuck the bridges, let them burn! Hear the steps The devil dances. Here beyond the Second chances. If...

Under a 1979 Supreme Court decision, once someone has agreed to start having sex, at no time during that act of intercourse can she withdraw consent. She relinquishes the right to control her own body.

Welcome to North Carolina, where rape is legal! If you begin having sex in the great state of North Carolina, want to stop, and your partner forcibly restrains you to continue having intercourse, well, you should have made up your mind beforehand. Once you’ve initially consented to the act, you...

AHP Minicast 4 – Colorado Amendment 62 →
reclusiveobscenities:
A mini episode of the podcast focused on the Colorado Amendment 62 that is on the ballot this fall. This second attempt by the Personhood USA proponents to get a damaging amendment to choice before the Colorado voters is in our crosshairs for this shortened cast. We pick apart the specifics of the amendment to help voters see the truth behind this fight.

I cannot tell you how long I’ve been meaning to do a post on this very subject - especially with the numerous posts I see on tumblr that address almost every other type of privilege (heterosexual, white, male, able-bodied, cis-gendered, wealthy, etc) but American and Western privilege. In some earlier posts of mine, I tried to combat this...

Emphatically on 2. Its a huge pet peeve of mine when people cling to labels they’re not and I’ve argued with so many people before on this. “I only eat a little meat! I’m mostly vegan!” “Fish isn’t an animal so I’m a vegetarian.” “I don’t eat meat, stock or broth isn’t …

Trigger
It’s a trigger. Pulled by stress, It reconfigures and we regress, Into an instinct Of baser sorts. We don’t think, We just resort To violence In explosive bursts, Making no sense Only things worse. Welcome to ‘America’, Pick your weapon and proceed. The fore-fathers commanded This right a sacred need. And two hundred plus years later This protected and valued rule, Allows for the...

Something for vegans to think about...
I have seen people in the vegan community talking a lot about Bill Clinton and whether or not he is vegan, when he has admitted to eating a bit of fish still. (Just so you know where I stand, he is not a vegan) Some vegans think that those of us who oppose him using this label are being overly sensitive, but I ask you to consider this…
1) Veganism is not a diet. It is a way of living to...

The Soul Room (2008)
When I was in high school, many years ago, I wrote a poem called The Soul Room, only to lose it a couple of years later. In 2008 I sat down and re-imagined the poem based on the lines that I could remember. This is the end result.
This is the soul room, A place for the damned. Those here are lost, Beyond what was planned! Prophets set forward The days yet to unfold, In the scrolls of the souls,...

San Diego radio station KFMB — which, like most talk radio stations in America, features only conservative hosts – had a survey on its home page (now removed), polling listeners with the question, “During a time of war should we register as many Muslims as we can find in a national database?”
