My brain: How does it work

I had a really vivid dream last night that Clif invited me over to Jensen's house. Yes, this is where you all mock me for my subconscious love for him.

But, no.

I was hanging out with Clif and Jensen but it was just like I was hanging out with a couple of my friends. Jensen and I were talking about pets (in my dream he had cats) and Clif and I were talking about our favourite movies from the 80s (Robocop and Terminator apparently). As well as all this I was talking to Christian Kane on Twitter.

But the relevent part is that after a while Jensen said he needed to take a shower and just stripped down to his boxers in the middle of the room before he wandered off to look for a towel. And this didn't affect me AT ALL. It was like being in the room with a family member. I was more interested in whatever Clif was talking about.

And that, people, I think demonstrates how unattracted to Jensen I really am.

Also, amusingly, I was trying to stealth-text oddlyfamiliar to tell her where I was but I didn't want Clif to see in case he kicked me out.

Ta Da!

If you're going to Nashville this year may I draw your attention to nashcon. We're trying to get some fandom activities going in between the panels and whatnot.

lizajaneok just linked me to this absolutely wonderful SPN vid. I actually teared up watching it. I love to see some smiles in amongst all the angst

Well, there goes my good mood for the day.

NYTimes, the bastion of quality reporting, reported on the gang-rape of an 11 year-old girl in Texas  that's led to charges against 18 high-school boys so far - all well and good so far, right?  Shit like this NEEDS publicity to raise awareness. 

Only problem is, they repeated - without refutation or critical commentary - the claims that the girl brought the rape on herself because of the way she was dressed.

Choice Quotes (No cut b/c everyone needs to see this - DEAL.):

“It’s just destroyed our community,” said Sheila Harrison, 48, a hospital worker who says she knows several of the defendants. “These boys have to live with this the rest of their lives.”  As opposed to the victim, who's gonna bounce back lickety-fucking-split, right?

Residents in the neighborhood where the abandoned trailer stands — known as the Quarters — said the victim had been visiting various friends there for months. They said she dressed older than her age, wearing makeup and fashions more appropriate to a woman in her 20s. She would hang out with teenage boys at a playground, some said.  TOTALLY BEGGING FOR IT.

THIS IS RAPE CULTURE, PEOPLE.

Now, what's being said and done in this community is bad enough, but the NY Times should be fucking ashamed of themselves right now.
