Dr. Tiller’s murderer complains, “I haven’t been convicted of anything, and I am being treated as a criminal.”
(Note to Roeder: glueing locks on abortion clinics is a federal crime in violation of the FACE act, and you were filmed doing that. So you were a criminal even before you picked up a gun.)
And tell me you believe this man was a killer. →

“In 2002 I found out I was carrying triplets. My husband did not want me to have them. The day of my appointment I was scared and not sure this was the right decision. They took me back and did an ultrasound. I asked if they all had heartbeats and the nurse said yes. I asked if I would have the chance to talk to the doctor and right away she went and got Dr Tiller. He came in and...

I don’t think so. I mean, chances are, you’re already asleep. Whereas I’m still folding.

Also, it’s Saturday night!?! Sad. Sad. Sad.
Well, it’s Saturday night and I’m doing my laundry. Should we perhaps have a sad-off?
Okay Plant-lovers.
minou:
It’s spring! I have a very nice little covered deck at my place. I have never gardened because I have always been a renter, and I rent still, but this year I’d like to have some plants out there. Lots of flowers, nothing gaudy, and a few nice greens too. These all have to be potted plants, of course, although I wouldn’t be averse to doing one small/medium box. I need some advice about...

The article quotes McEwen as saying, “the best way to deceive someone is first to deceive yourself.”
Not sure how good I am at the first part, but I’ve got that second part covered.

I wish I had seen this at 12:34 a.m.
Switzerland
My two best friends are still not speaking. Which means the ‘best friend burden’ now doubly falls upon me. I am the neutral body between two enemies. I am Switzerland, dammit!
Switzerland is tired of being all cool and mountainous and beautiful all the time while stuck between two warring bodies. Very tired.
Could someone please cut Switzerland a break?
I'm so over this show.

Hosea was a pity fuck.
YES. What the FUCK?? Hosea made the most boring food and was the most boring person ever.

Liveblogging my bikini wax? No. Not now. Not ever. So stop asking me, okay?
What Inspirational Catchphrase Should Obama Utter... →
(via inothernews)
I couldn’t compete with Jon Favreau in the catchphrase stakes, but did suggest a drinking game for those who plan to imbibe while watching tonight’s speech:
A shot every time Obama says “investment.”
A shot every time Obama says “future.”
A double shot every time those two words appear in the same sentence.
Yes, I know it’s a great...
Why
do I stay up this late? I plan to go to sleep so much earlier, but there’s always one more thing to do and I find myself in front of the computer at an hour when surely everyone else in the entire universe is tucked into a comfortable bed and deep into their dreams.
Okay. I’m going now. Really.

Lily Blue is wonderful!
(via filledwithchocolatepudding)
Thanks, SW. You’re wonderful too. While I realize that my re-blogging of your post is beyond narcissistic, sometimes a little self-love is both positive and necessary. Or so I tell myself.
I put the "um" in "tumblr."
misterhippity:
Nobody puts the “twit” in “twitter” like Julia Allison.
Nobody puts the “twee” in “tweet” like Dave Matthews.
That’s funny; I thought Hippity put the “aw” in Gawker.
Yeah, but I’m still confused.
Because
It’s time, isn’t it? And because otherwise the world will drift away and I’ll hardly notice.
