THE SHIRT MUST BE MINE. The skirt, on the other hand, was clearly once a lampshade in a olde timey Western saloon. A lamp which was magically transported to a disco, circa 1976, and had a long, complicated affair with a bead curtain. The curtain said it "just wanted to play the field." "It's not you, it's me," it…

Solon. Laura SOLON. Not Salon. That's something else.

It was George Takei, our Glorious Leader in Awesomeness.

Someone needs to open a craft store for liberal feminists, quick, otherwise my curtains are never going to get done.

I know, right? I have a crazy, right-wing aunt in Texas (of course she lives in Texas) who is obsessed with banning abortions, yet also anti-birth control. What the hell is she thinking?

Muslim high-five! We're totes into Jesus, too - he's one of our prophets. Not a lot of non-Muslims know that.

I loved Independence Day and hated Armageddon. I think it was the Aerosmith song.

He's a national treasure, there's no doubt.

Did you see him in Tropic Thunder, tho'? Guy was good, swear to god.

Everyone loves cheese! Next thing, he'll be telling us he hates stuffed-crust pizzas.

Aw, shucks. It ain't no thang. >.<

Lot's of Muslim women don't cover their heads, so I can see that. The flip side is that I *do* cover my head, but I'm so white I can blind people by standing in strong sunlight. Nobody knows what I am. (Someone guessed "Mennonite" once.)

For what it's worth, I keep misreading her book title as "Hard Cheese."

Someone call Homeland Security, 'cause my ovaries just exploded.

I'll go ahead and guess that Obama is. Maybe we could get a twofer if Kal Penn is a feminist.

I feel like this isn't the first time I've heard this excuse. Didn't they say that about Call of Duty or something? (Obviously, I have my finger on the pulse of the gaming industry.)

What the hell is up with the comments today? You'd think this news would be met with more or less general admiration and enjoyment... Maybe I just got here before the moderators could clean up.

Kurt Braunohler is ("I'm gong to speak up, even if it makes things uncomfortable."), and I think I got this link from John Hodgman, who is also. So there's two more middling-obscure comedians. Patrick Stewart definitely is. Bruce McCulloch from Kids In The Hall... We should make a list.

But it has Biblical Precedent, which is SUPER IMPORTANT. Apparently.

Mine recommended the silly "documentary" this was featured in a while ago. And from what other commenters are saying, I think it might be a Mom Thing. Like, all the moms got a message from the Mom Planet about it.
