It should be a musical comedy.

May 16 Luckier commented on It's Spring! Who's Ready for Street Harassment?.

"Of course, all women have stories of being harassed. All of them. This isn't even a particularly heinous example—my friends and coworkers have stories of having their boobs grabbed on the street, having their asses grabbed, even being followed onto buses and then home."

Yes, all of the above, multiple times. Can I add to the street harassment list the thing where a man walking toward you waits until he is just alongside you and says "hi" or "hey" or "hello," so by the time the word is out of his mouth and it registers in your ear as being spoken to you, he's already a few steps behind you? Because that bugs the fuck out of me. It's a passive-aggressive bullshit trick to give that guy a reason to think "see, that chick is so stuck up she won't even say hi."

Next time, I'm going to turn around and follow that guy asking "have you met my friend Jesus? He wants to say hi to you too."

Brilliant - thanks Dan. I hope your husband "resurrects" your "lord" for Easter tomorrow (that's what we call it at my house.)

Mar 26 Luckier commented on The Tough Questions in the Supreme Court's Prop. 8 Case, and What They Mean.

@5 I thought the question came as a total surprise to Olsen, because it hadn't been raised by the California Supremes or by the 9th Circuit. I can't think of a case where the moment that an act "became unconstitutional" mattered. Certainly there was plenty of race-based discrimination upheld by the federal courts after the Equal Protection Clause/14th Amendment was ratified. Have you heard of Plessy v. Ferguson, Scalia? What a troll.

Mar 26 Luckier commented on Today's SCOTUS Oral Arguments Have Been Published.

I'm still reading, but it gets pretty funny around p. 24-25.

Mar 22 Luckier commented on HBO Might One Day Allow Me to Purchase a Subscription to HBO.

Digital Preferred (which includes AMC and other good cable networks) and HBO will run you about $85/month plus tax. HBO itself is just $20 of that. I pay way too much for my television habits, btw.

Feb 26 Luckier commented on Frat Brothers Raise Money To Cover Trans Member's Top Surgery After Insurance Company Denies His Claim.

@10, as a straight man, you love vaginas bc you want to fuck them, and you love your dick because you want to fuck with it. If you woke up one morning with a vagina instead of a dick, you might start to hate it, right? Because its something you want to fuck, not fuck with.

Also, the trans man in the blog? His "parts" are not yours. Your opinion about them has no effect on his feelings.

Feb 19 Luckier commented on A Salad Bigger Than Your Face.

It is Madison Valley, though I like to call it "the French Quarter" bc of all the French restaurants within two blocks - Rovers, Luc, La Cote, Voila, plus Harvest Vine is French-ish.

Feb 19 Luckier commented on A Theory of White Native Americans.

One theory on why white and black Americans both claim native ancestry is that native ancestry was more acceptable (in the romanticized view of the West) than black or white ancestry for each group. So, some white Americans with a black ancestor would claim native blood to excuse their darker skin tone, and some black Americans with a white ancestor would claim native blood to excuse their straighter hair.
