Eventually they will make an iPhone that jumps into your ear and translates everything in real time. Until then, we have this:
Dear Michael,
I am upset to hear that you are calling the rape allegations against Julian Assange hooey. While it may be that governments are taking advantage of the claims to discredit him, it is unfair to the women involved in the case to write them off completely, assume that they are lying, or state that what was alleged was not rape.
With one woman, the condom broke and she wanted him to stop. Instead of complying, he held her down until he was finished. With the other, he had unprotected sex while she was asleep. Both of these situations sound very scary to me, as a woman, and they do indeed sound like rape.
The charge isn’t about whether or not the condom broke; it’s what he did after the condom broke. That is a very important point, and I hope that you will take that into consideration in the future. The details of the allegations are being misrepresented by most major media outlets; it’s your chance to prove them wrong.
Sincerely,
Eve
BOOM! Frum busts in with a haymaker!
First Barbara Bush, and now this. David Frum is Canada’s most conservative dude, and even he is raggin’ on Palin.

I want to post more day to day, Eve’s life type things, but I don’t want the internet to know about them. My options are thus:
Password protection
Password protection via checking if you’re logged in via facebook and are a friend of mine (painless for users)
or
Sucking it up
Not sure yet which one I’ll go with. I’m not so much worried about people knowing that I’m a fishosexual; I am more worried about future tenure hearings bringing up my copious use of OMG.
Eve: that song by Willow Smith is really the worst song in the entire world
The Beau: ya
Eve: bar none
Eve: none
Eve: except maybe for her likely inspiration, that guy who likes gucci bandanas
Eve: Soulja Boy
Eve: the source of my favourite of Sergio’s interventions
Eve: I am amazed that he is popular
The Beau: he makes justin beiber look like Leonard Cohen
Apologies to the Beebs.
Also, while I am fully on Ice-T’s side (short of the homophobia), “forefather of my nuts” was a pretty good burn.
