So, this is a tumblr. In the world of tumblr there is a popular meme called Topless Tuesday. In NZ, it is a Tuesday.

TOPLESS TUESDAY!!

Once you click on the link (embedded in the heading) you get taken straight to a neat little interactive thingy that has 5 Super 14 Players. They are all top-notch to look at and probably heinous to drink around (except for Jimmy Cowan who has reportedly sobered up some since his infamous smackdown 2 years ago) and then you'll be able to make the players take part in one of the most popular traditions of Rugby - shirt swapping! Pick any two players and make them swap shirts. There is even a slow motion option available.

This is actually quite an old link. Do I care? Hell no! Apparently this was an ad campaign to draw attention to the players shirts? I don't know. I don't really care. Let's face it, you probably don't care either. I'm gonna go ahead and say this is safe for work. I'm probably wrong.

Yes, I do have an idea for a proper post today. I just wanted a reason to talk about this.

  You just can’t make this stuff up. The Ladies Against Feminism (for real) co-sponsored a “baby conference”where Michelle Duggar of TLC’s 19 Kids and Counting received the “Mother of the Year Award.”

As Amanda tweeted, “I fail to see how being physically capable of non-stop pregnancy is the same thing as being the world’s best mother…That’s like saying the guy who can eat 50 hot dogs in a minute is the world’s greatest gourmand.” Why is ultimate motherhood simply about having as many babies as possible? And when oh when is the Christian Right going to stop promoting the notion that women’s ultimate purpose is incubating?

I also think it’s worth noting that the founder of Ladies Against Feminism, Jennifer Chancey thinks women shouldn’t vote or hold office. So apparently being a dope mother is also about teaching your children that women don’t deserve or need equal rights.

Nwk friend Kathryn Joyce wrote a very nice piece for us a few years ago (and a nicer book) about the Quiverfull movement that is behind things like this.

It takes a special kind of narcissism to celebrate ignorance by comparing one’s self to genius.

No medium has ever survived the indifference of 25-year-olds.

Pole dancing - it's a sport

Does this mean that walking into strip clubs is now okay, because you are watching athletes perform at their peak level?

Seriously though, I think it's great. YAY!!

OMFG!

So, someone saw Eclipse and DIED! Just died in the cinema. The cleaners found him the next day.

This leaeds to a few thoughts:

Which cinema?

Which chair?

It was in the front row? I am never sitting in the front row.

OMG did I know him?

Twilight movies cause death

If I see this film, I might die

Shit. I should stop washing my sugar down with whiskey
