10th-Jul-2008 07:10 pm - do you think I'm really cool and sexy?
*facepalm*
My mother has turned into one of those people who walk around talking on their wireless headsets, looking like they're talking to themselves. I knew she had a Bluetooth headset, but I did not realize exactly how crazy she looked with it until we went shopping today.

She deserted me at the cashier, which left me awkwardly trying to fake her signature with the credit card, and talking to the guy behind the counter. The conversation went something like this:

ME: My mother is one of those crazy people that looks like they're talking to themselves with a wireless headset. See? She's deserted me.
CASHIER: I'm one of those crazy people without a wireless headset. People like your mother make the real crazy people look good, 'cause no one can tell nowadays, right?
ME: Ahaha, no, I guess not.
CASHIER: Hey, you eat the same kind of yogurt as me!
ME: Really? Sweet!

He was also wearing a pink shirt that was just a little too small for him, which amused me. Too bad he looked to be in his late thirties and... well, it might have something to do with the pink shirt, but he set off my gaydar. Which is actually saying quite a lot, because you have to be fairly flamboyant to set off MY gaydar.

Also, I am not sure whether to be pleased about the fact that McCain may not be eligible to run for president. You'd think they'd check this sort of thing out in the primary, wouldn't you? Christ.

AND HE HAS THE SAME BIRTHDAY AS ME. I THINK I AM SCARRED FOR LIFE.

ETA: I just remembered what I forgot, haha. I tried to watch Eurotrip online today, but the one I had (at surfthechannel) wouldn't go past 21 minutes. If anyone knows where I could find a copy -- preferably streaming, so I don't have to download it -- let me know?

spn: j2 hug!! :D
Guys, tell me that I'm right to offer my services as a fanficcer for [info]livelongnmarry.

I mean, I am really incredibly tired of fanfiction exchanges, but... this is different, it's an auction that will give money to help keep same sex marriage legal in California! That's really awesome!

Surely my muse could be convinced to work, and write something a little longer than usual even, for the right kind of cause? SURELY. I mean, ignoring the fact that it's pretty much dead right now, but the story wouldn't be due till October.

I think I've decided I'm going to do it. I just need to work out what to put in my offer so that I don't get stuck with something I don't want to write. I'm planning to offer Harry Potter and Supernatural fic, since I feel a bit more comfortable writing SPN fic now. Hmm. *plans*

YOU GUYS SHOULD TOTALLY DO IT TOO, OR COME TO BID ON WHAT PEOPLE ARE OFFERING. Check out [info]livelongnmarry to help fandom keep a place for gay actors in Hollywood to get married gay marriage legal in California! :D


ETA: I have offered my services here.
17th-Jun-2008 09:13 pm - will i soon be able to say "my brain is 48% gay"?
fight club: light my cigarette
Oh, right. I meant to post about this yesterday.

Scientific American's Study Says Brains of Gay Men and Women Are Similar:

The team next used PET (positron emission tomography) scans to measure the blood flow to the amygdala, that part of the brain controlling emotion, fear and aggression. The images showed how the amygdala connects to other parts of the brain, giving them clues as to how this might influence behavior. They scanned subjects' brains when they at rest and did not show them photos or introduce other behavior that might have been learned.

They found that in gay men and women, the blood flowed to areas involved in fear and anxiety, whereas in straight men and lesbians it tended to flow to pockets linked to aggression.

Robert Epstein, emeritus director of the Cambridge Center for Behavioral Studies in Concord, Mass., agrees that the study offers compelling evidence that sexual orientation is a biologically fixed characteristic. But he cautions that these findings may vary in different people whose sexual orientation is not that clear-cut, which his own research shows includes a majority of the population.


I am not at all sure how I feel about this. My general opinion on finding a biological basis for sexuality is that while it would be really, really awesome scientifically, in the end it would do no good. This article exemplifies a lot of the problems that arise -- in just this one quote, I can see extrapolations in which lesbians could be labeled 'masculine' and 'aggressive', while gay men are 'fearful' and 'effeminate'.

Yet, at the same time it makes me wonder what they'd find in my brain -- after all, I fit into that last category of 'people whose sexual orientation is not that clear-cut' -- I guess it's the scientist in me.

But this is one place in which I think science edges pretty close to touching on topics that could become morally dangerous if the general public became aware of them. I'd like to think that people wouldn't want to use information like this to make sure they had straight children, or to 'fix' gayness... but people are still killed for their sexual orientation and prevented from marrying the people they love.

Sometimes I wonder if I should go into scientific ethics rather than journalism, since my brain never, EVER lets this stuff go. >.>


ETA: This article by National Geographic is much better written and I think if I'd read it first, it wouldn't have made me quite so worried about the ethics part (or maybe it would have, idk). Thanks to [info]sporkyadrasteia for pointing it out.
15th-May-2008 02:30 pm - I LOVE MY STATE.
kissy kissy
OMG. OMFG.

OH MY FUCKING GOD.

CALIFORNIA IS OFFICIALLY THE COOLEST STATE EVER, Y/MFY?

AMIRITE OR AMIRITE?

Well, not coolest in the sense of temperature. It's 96 fucking degrees here in Berkeley, which is insanely hot for this part of California. We're right on the ocean, the COLD part of the ocean. We're supposed to get FOG and TEMPERATE WEATHER, damn it.

I am so not taking Milo until it cools off a bit. >.>
