nostalgia_lj tells it like is, and how it will be if the psychopath in the White House and his neocon controllers shoehorn themselves back into power next month.

In 1984, ozarque wrote a book that had, as its starting premise, the repeal of the 19th amendment of the US Constitution. Perhaps I am being paranoid, but that seems precisely the direction that these policies, and the attitudes the underlie them, have their ultimate aim; perhaps not literally, but in their desired effect on human life and discourse. That many women support them is just even more depressing.

[baaaa] that uniqueness meme

from just about everyone...

Name a CD you own that no-one else on your friends list does.

On CD... Maybe Rainbow Sounds from the Tapiolan yhteiskoulun kuoro, or maybe Church of Anthrax from John Cale and Terry Riley. If I were allowed vinyl, it would be easier :)

Name a book you own that no-one else on your friends list does.

How about Against History, Against Leviathan? No credits in the book, but apparantly by Fredy Perlman. Boy Peace by Jay Gilbert is probably a fairly safe bet too.

Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that no-one else on your friends list does.

Not sure I can do this one - there's some odd and obscure stuff on the shelves, but I doubt there's anything that unusual. I'd be surprised if there wasn't someone on my flist with, say, Dark Star or The Lathe of Heaven (as being a couple of the least obvious).

Name a place that you have visited that no-one else on your friends list has.

Kontiolahti, on the east shore of Höytiäinen in Finland is probably my unique preserve amongst my flist.
