I'm always glad when I hear about government funds being used for sex education, it's such an important thing for young people to learn about, but I have to admit that I was a teeny be surprised when I found out that the government is now funding educational videos to teach teenagers all about the joys of safe, sane and consensual BDSM [link].
Oh Planned Parenthood, you kinky buggers.

The other day at work I had one of those worlds colliding moments. I was having a meeting with a project manager and I saw the name of my old high school English teacher on one of his project plans.
I think we all had that one teacher in high school who was just plain cool.

Just around the corner from where I live there's a cafe.

Parenting is a strange concept, isn't it. It's like "Here, have a human being. Try not to kill it before it's old enough to get a job, would you?".
Still, most people seem to manage okay. At least so it would appear given how many of us actually make it into adulthood.

I've worked in an office for almost twenty years, and if there's one thing I've learned about cubicle dwelling, it's that you need to personalise your space.

I've always been a big believer in equality. The idea that no matter your age, race, gender, sexual orientation, or steak cooking preferences (I like mine blue), you deserve to be treated the same.

Okay, I have a question. Is "Kittens For Sale" code for something?
Because considering just how regularly one house in my neighbourhood has a sign out front with that very message, I'm beginning to think that either someone needs to anonymously give them some vet desexing vouchers for Christmas, or it's actually code for something else.
