@Janine M (#52):

Yes, & Maddow worked institutional racism into a recent show. I really like it when people on TV make social systems visible, no matter whether they’re anarcho-progressives or not…well, okay, I’d probably *prefer* anarcho-progressives, but…still and all.

Michele Tulis was OUR vet for 12 years when we lived in Chittenden County! Fun to see her again, tending to your little darlin’ And didja ever figure out why those birds were so loud? And did the snake survive the cat’s curiosity? Blessings from CA! Jan

Thanks for the recap. I was gonna comment, maybe Obama “really can’t get too worked up about DOMA” either. So someone has to.

Oh is there anything as adorably contradictory as a cat — with a mouthful of needleteeth — looking like it’s miserable? “Oh, she made me open wide for a look at my gums. I do not like this. I am so helpless.”

Good kitty.

@ Duncan (33):

“I did see one clip where she gleefully repeated Bush-Obama talking points on Iran; like many liberals, she has no evident objection to US violence and imperial power.”

I found myself curious about this, because while Rachel is no anarcho-progressive, I still find myself enjoying her perspective on many things. I can’t recall her ever parroting the notion that we should bomb the hell out of Iran, or that it’s a good thing that “all options are on the table.” She’s certainly, and justifiably, criticized Iran for being a theological monstrosity that crushes women and political dissidents under its heel, though…

Re: Star Trek Movie
Saw it yesterday, found is worse than I feared. Didn’t think to apply Alison’s rule, but true, it barely meets it.
I say, its a run-of-the-mill special effects war film where young men save their home (more or less). Roddenberry’s ashes must be spinning at warp speed.

The German gouvernment is thinking about changing the transsexualism act and remove the clause that after the final sex-adapting operation married people are divorced automatically. Not sure if this will really become law though, elections are not very far off.

I’m a Generations girl so I can’t get behind seeing a movie about Kirk.

Oh, I would rather spend two hours watching a continuous loop of Dr Winnicott’s battle with the snake than watch the new STAR TREK movie.
