Sick people?

Webcomic Striptease has recently been doing a run on a goth/fetish club incident. Actually prompted me to comment on the author's community that goth != fetish.

And then I read on another webcomics artist's blog that a man who embezzled money to see dominatrix is going to be thrown in jail for a few years. That author/artist said "we're giving him what he deserves," and my instant response was "no, because there's no consent involved, plus we don't know his specific fantasies and chances are this won't fit them." (BTW, this is the dominatrix he visited - Not Safe For Work. I'd love to see a statement on her webpage disavowing his embezzlement and giving back the money or something...)

How'd I get to know so much about the kink community?

HS: Infusion 4 and final, for now

is happening in under an hour. Unfortunately, I had a flare-up in the intervening time - left armpit, and chest. Hopefully no reaction today, hopefully this last one will help my HS more. If it helps some but not lots, I'm not sure if I want to have / should have / can get coverage for more treatments. June 1 is a derm appt to discuss that, and other stuff.

HS: done

so tired. infusion was fine. I'd been taking OTC claritin for th etwo weeks prior, and I was premedicated with clarinex (same as claritin) and benadryl, so the worst that happened t ome during the infusion was that I actually dozed off for something like a half hour. stupid drugs. I've got more in a pocket in case I have a delayed reaciton like last time.

I'm maybe 1/2 to 2/3 done with the phys sci exam I'm giving tomorrow. i can't wait till I fill out the bubble sheet tomorrow while the kids are taking it and find out just how messed up it ended up from the sleepiness. :) astro today was fine, have already graded the MC part since bubble sheet. good thing i can finish writing the exam and then email it to the printshop and it'll be waiting for me when I get to campus tomrorow morning. yay for the intarwebz

CTYers beware

When you push your kids too hard, things like this can happen. I wonder why the defense didn't file a counter-claim of emotional and psychological abuse against the surving parent.

Ugh.

How will he even get on a plane?!

[Maunal] Uribe [1,200 lbs] made an impassioned plea for help earlier this year on Mexican television, saying he weighed a more normal 290 pounds until age 22 and did not know what happened to him.
...
No one has managed to find suitable scales for Uribe in years and estimates of his weight are made partly by tape-measure.

He kept fucking eating, that's what! Yeah I know obesity is a problem, but it's not all biological folks, it's a mental problem as well.

On the flip side, I think it's awesome that they have to do an order-of-magnitude estimate to determine how much he weighs - I presume they measure an average circumference, assume a spherical cow and density equal to water, and calculate!
