Watch Out–Full Rant Mode

This is from an article in my local paper. Leaders of a growing local congregation that advertises itself as “The Cool Church” are telling their parishioners that being gay will take 30 years off a person’s life, prompting accusations that they are perpetuating “really uncool, deeply homophobic” lies. My first response? Uncool! I have been

Brain-Deadness Sucks

Just the thought of writing, or blogging, or even reading, makes my head hurt. I’d go back to bed, but I only crawled out two hours ago, after TEN HOURS of sleep. Which is ridiculous in itself. Argh.

Conlanging

I actually remembered what past perfect progressive tense is. Do you? I’ll give you an example. “I had been running.” Cool, ne? Okay, probably not. But I’m pretty tickled I remembered what it was. It’s a hell of a lot easier to make up a language when you know a little about your own. Choosing

Firefly

Marathon, Sci Fi channel, August 10. What more do you need to know?  Go!  Spread the word!   It is not, for some reason, the whole series (with all the more Fox made, that’s entirely do-able), nor, for some possibly other reason, is it the first episodes, but it is a marathon and it is Firefly.
