@#1 Who posted under the veil of anonymity I might point out that you point to EA’s alleged sexist competition, the mistake they made was not having scantily clad men. Even so regardless of whether or not EA acted in...

Everyone is entitled to their views even if you don't like them. These people are free to demonstrate their views which is a good thing. Unfortunately they seem to have mistaken their right to demontrate with the right to prohibit...

It's not as bad as these articles make it seem, though I think Section44 was a mistake and we have the Blair Admin to thank for that. The best thing you can do is just comply with what you have...
Commented on UK cops spot Facebook notice of "all night" party, scramble armed goons in a chopper to break up small, local BBQ
I happened to read about this before I read about it here on boingboing. I think it's worth mentioning that the guy had hired a £800 sound system and a generator to run it. Why the police didn't just send...

Thieving Magpie commented on Steampunk cosplayers at ComicCon
@EEYOREX About living steampunks, you'll note I commented "At least a few are...living steampunks". Yes, a few, especially at a convention known for it's heavy costumer/cosplayer attendance. However, I still stand by my statement that some of the steampunks at the con were of the living steampunk variety. The difference between a "living steampunk" and a cosplayer is like the difference between a goth and any of the multitude of vampire cosplayers. They both may wear fangs on occasion but the similarity ends there. A cosplayer by definition is playing in costume, an identity to be removed at the end...
EeyoreX commented on Steampunk cosplayers at ComicCon
@Thieving Magpie: Yeah, I have surfed around johnnypayphone's site - and his friends sites - for a while now, and I've come to the conclution that those people who call themselves "living steampunk" are essentially makers wearing cravattes. Now, I don´t blame them at all for not wanting to be called "makers" - as has allready been pointed out in other threads on Boingboing "maker" is a pretty effin stupid term in itself. "Tinkerer" might be slightly more appropriate, or whatever. But why is it even an issue to anyone weather you're a "cosplayer" or a "living steampunk"? At the...

@27 Glad you mentioned Ballard. That was exactly my initial response to the implied formula at work here: [Pacific atoll] + [mindless consumption x psychological strain] + [the human brain in lizardesque isolation] = FLASHPOINT...
DoctorJoan commented on Abortion clinic escort's blog
I wanted to respond to the comment earlier about why we need abortion clinics, and why abortions can't be provided in regular mainstream medical settings. I have personally been providing abortions for 10 years, attempting to create a new model of abortion services. The program is called Early Options, and we have been training family doctors to offer early abortion services (abortion pill, manual aspiration procedure) as part of their primary care practices. These methods can be used up to 10 weeks of pregnancy, where there is less moral controversy because no visible embryo has formed. We complete these methods...

kudos to u dr. joan! having been an "escort" for a clinic here in fla, i have seen some nasty shit being perpetrated by the right-wing christian fanatics that made me never want anything to with that religion again. any man out there espewing his desire to control a woman and what she does with her body should STFU! show me in the bible where it says ANYTHING about life beginning in the womb. all texts i've read talk about life beginning when one takes his/her first breath. life means breath, for craps sake! dr. joan, again , best of...
