My friend againjen has some important things to say about her reasons for being pro-choice.

Here’s the tl;dr version (her final paragraph): 

So why am I pro-choice? Why am I in favor of free birth control, sex education, and Planned Parenthood? Because the woman who carried Mimi inside her body and gave her life doesn’t have any of those things, and doesn’t have a voice, and doesn’t even know where on earth her daughter is. I can’t change what happened to her, and what happened to Mimi; the only thing I can do is keep working and speaking out so that it maybe, someday, stops happening at all.

My heart feels like it’s been ripped it out of my chest, turned it inside out, and put back again.

…I mean, the way I imagine that would feel.

“Dear Internet” by Tina Fey

From PerezHilton.com/Posted by jerkstore on Wednesday, 1/21/2009, 11:21 P.M.

“In my opinion Tina Fey completely ruined SNL. The only reason she’s celebrated is because she’s a woman and an outspoken liberal. She has not a single funny bone in her body.”

“Dear jerkstore,

Huzzah for the Truth Teller! Women in this country have been over-celebrated for too long. Just last night there was a story on my local news about a “missing girl,” and they must have dedicated seven or eight minutes to “where she was last seen” and “how she might have been abducted by a close family friend,” and I thought, “What is this, the News for Chicks?” Then there was some story about Hillary Clinton flying to some country because she’s secretary of state. Why do we keep talking about these dumdums? We are a society that constantly celebrates no one but women and it must stop! I want to hear what the men of the world have been up to. What fun new guns have they invented? What are they raping these days? What’s Michael Bay’s next film going to be?

When I first set out to ruin SNL, I didn’t think anyone would notice, but I persevered because—like you trying to do a nine-piece jigsaw puzzle—it was a labor of love.

I’m not one to toot my own horn, but I feel safe with you, jerkstore, so I’ll say it. Everything you ever hated on SNL was by me, and anything you ever liked was by someone else who did it against my will.

Sincerely,

Tina Fey

P.S. You know who does have a funny bone in her body? Your mom every night for a dollar.”

I don’t think I could love her any more than I do right now.

I would have taken the “Girl tragically born with no Humerus” tact, but I guess I’ll leave this one to the professionals.

(Get it? FUNNY BONE?)

Are you sad to see Friendster go? Do you even remember if you had a profile there or not?

Tumblr doesn’t let you reblog yourself, but it lets me reblog you.

Guys, go read this if you haven’t already.

That’s just…probably for the best.

I don’t want to make too big of a deal about it, because it’s just a week on a calendar whizzing by, but it’s a week that marks the passage of a really important year for my family.

No hubris here. No temptation of fate. We understand that some days will be…
