DUDE? Where did January go?! Seriously, I think we lost a a week or two somewhere.

Neil Gaiman, Todd McFarlane settle 'Spawn' legal dispute
That took some time, didn't it? McFarlane's still a big lying liar who lies about things, but it's nice to have that over and done with.

Dear idiot mother (not *MY* mother. My mother rocks. This woman I'm gonna talk about who's entire personality seems to be "Stage Mom"),
You sent your tiny child on stage to sing "I'm Sexy and I Know It". You and she are on a show about pageants (and the sexualization of tiny children). So, no. It is *NOT* the media's fault that your little girl is "now perceived sexually, erotically and pornographically, and (the stories) have placed Isabella in serious physical danger, attracting the attention of others who would seek to sexualize a child.".
Lady, she's in kiddie pageants. Who do you think is in the audience? Are the people who aren't family members or friends of the family just really interested in what sequins and mascara look like on a three year old?!
But, I won't go on. Because even if you read this, it won't get through. You're so firmly entrenched in your position that doing this to your child is just fine that pointing out ways it isn't just bounces off the shell before it gets near you.
In disgust,
Me

I'm pretty sure I big puffy heart Janet Howell. Republican lawmakers are pushing for legislation that would require pregnant women to have an ultrasound before terminating their pregnancy. In response, Howell introduced an amendment that would require men to have a rectal exam and a cardiac stress test before obtaining erectile dysfunction medication like Viagra.

WTF happened to January?
... and the men should have to complete a week long course on human sexuality and show a receipt for at least one box of CONDOMS.
Takes two to tango boys!

Even though "I'm Sexy and I Know It" is obviously a parody, there's no defensible reason to allow a child, especially one as active in the overly-saturated with early sexualizing as child beauty pageants as this one, to sing this song at such a venue (no matter what the cause, really).
The child cannot understand satire, so it doesn't matter that the song is a parody to begin with. Not to mention most of the folks it portrays as "sexy" are done with the intention of ridiculing the very idea that they could be found sexy to begin with (like the overweight guy dancing in the tank top). But we know children are sexualized, and that sexuality is eroticized, and that's what the mother supported by allowing her daughter to sing that song.
Grrrrrrrr.

Because, honestly, if GOD wanted these dudes to have erections, they wouldn't have limp dicks. So Viagra- just like contraception- is AGAINST GOD'S WILL, by their own standards.
Damn right they should have to jump through hoops to get it. AND get the permission of their wife.
