Population Bomb

Saturday, January 31st, 2009

Oh, mercy!
Everybody with any sense, and even some severely lacking are suddenly jumping onto the Great Green Bandwagon. That’s really great now, isn’t it? Who cares if it’s maybe too late! It’s cool! Buy a hybrid, take your own bags to the store, drive less or use public transit (at least until the price of gas goes down and we can forget again).

I HATE to tell you, but there’s a big, fat stinking elephant in the room. It’s name is US! Yes– I’ve only been alive since 1955, and by how many times has the earth’s population multiplied? When was _The Population Bomb_ written? How long have we had birth control? How many superstitious fools, especially educated ones in the US, the Catholics and Mormons, are still fucking like yard dogs and trying to fill up every nook and cranny on earth? We even have a [my opinion] selfiish and deranged woman in Los Angeles, a single mother even, who now has 14 children at the age of 33! Oh, I suppose I must be nice and charitable, but all of these selfish pseudo-rabbits, IMO, DO NOT have the right to blatantly try to exhaust every last resource on earth.

In short: in all of the Green talk lately that I’ve noticed in mainstream media, there has NOT, IIRC, been one single mention of the obvious– there are too damn many of us. Maybe homosexuality IS evolution’s last and best desperate attempt to save an inhabitable planet for the future.

How to scare people

Saturday, November 8th, 2008

Oh, fuck Proposition 8. Fuck the Mormons, the Knights of Columbus and all other outside agitators. Most of all, fuck the “reasonable, intelligent pro-gay” asshole fuck-ups who voted for Prop. 8.

I’m damned glad, for our family for several things: Domestic Partnership, full rights within California, our beautiful Jewish wedding, our Ketubah, our rabbis and beloved friends. Our bubble of comfort is really very big and, for us, safe.

Still, that’s not enough. I really want full, nationally-recognized normal life and will settle for nothing less.

Well, I think that Prop. 8 may not survive long for technical reasons. At some point the link between religion and marriage must be examined in Constitutional terms, CA and US.

Anyway:
On to the subject!
Anyone with any degree of political and social sophistication must surely know that: the root of homophobia is the fascination of others surrounding gay and lesbian sex. Hey, I remember Penthouse Forum letters way back in the 1970’s– almost as much gay, lesbian and bisexual stuff as all the rest of the topics. Lipstick lesbian stuff makes big bucks and causes foaming at the mouth among the most hateful homophobic rednecks.

If we’re smart, we must stop calling it, “Same Sex Marriage.” Marriage, of course, includes a degree of sex [and most of it is for recreation and bonding, not reproduction!]. But the term in common public usage is really what deeply scares our enemies and not-so-much enemies: it makes them think of sex, which brings up lewd images of eating pussy, pinching nipples, cock-sucking, butt-fucking, bondage, leather, Dore Alley, Folsom Street Fair, dark alleys, rest stops, bowling alley bathrooms, truck stops… and on and on.

I propose the terms, “Gender Neutral Unions”, “Same Gender Marriage”, or stuff like it.

That’s just what I think. I know that I have more wisdom and sense than most people.
