I don't really know any other bi people in 'real life', so I get to stay blissfully ignorant in that regard! WE ALL GET ALONG AND EVERYTHING IS FINE AND HAPPY AND BUNNIES FROLIC IN FIELDS ALL DAY LONG and the only biphobia that exists comes from non-bisexuals. Dammit.

Maybe I'm just normally so overwhelmed by other aspects of biphobia, but I had kind of forgotten that that whole...branch...existed. (Let me have my temporary ignorance, dammit!) So when I got into that thread, oh my GOD I couldn't believe what was happening.

I hope some of the more vile Supreme Court justices kick the bucket (I'm looking at you, Scalia) just in time for such a case to make it all the way to the top. Or at least some state courts, the way marriage equality has been going.

My worst fears have been confirmed: STOP SPELLING MY NAME IN WEIRD WAYS. I'm looking at you, funeral home woman, and all of you, parents of the 80s! You're the reason I have to spell my name out for people...gaaaah!

Well said.

I know this is a serious issue, but I can't get past the spelling, "Amiee". Ah-me-ay?

The Viola one is a bit of a reach; that is her best-known role, after all. Personally, I still think of her as that mean lawyer on one of the Law & Orders.

How does this even count as a swimsuit?!

That's not what I think is moronic, really, more that they're making such a stink over it. I don't agree with the policy, but if people take it seriously, they need only stop using Facebook - as many did over past policy changes.

Hey, all I was asked was why I referred to the situation as 'moronic'. Is the Facebook thing unfair? Sure. But it's also dumb.

That's horrible. I'm sorry! Hopefully FB's unfortunate policies will convince such communities to move elsewhere.

I WHOLEHEARTEDLY APPROVE

I was thinking more along the lines of Photoshopping a rainbow flag onto another butt.

According to Caity Weaver's fucking amazing piece on taking a Paula Deen cruise earlier this year, it was 1987.

Fuck Nicki, marry Beyonce, kill Rihanna.

Because use of Facebook is not a right guaranteed by the Constitution. As with the terms of use attached to everything everywhere, if you disagree, you don't have to use the service.

I'm sure someone can Photoshop something, dammit!

This whole 'real name' issue is moronic on both sides.

My grandmother was quite the penny-pincher, having grown up in poverty during the Depression. She would have (wisely) told you that you get the larger one, and take half of it home to eat for dinner.

It's fine to refer to things as Oriental, just not people.
