Ten Points about BSG: Faith

  • 12th May, 2008 at 7:15 AM
By Rhea Dee 1. Apparently, the way to get Starbuck to return to her super woman self is to have someone shot in the leg. Specifically, Gaeta. And it’s so good to see her back in action. Someone should have shot Gaeta sooner.

Yeah, so we've got [info]narutoadddict a spamrobot loser porno proprietor advertising in our community. I've tried several times to contact the mod before so I don't know what's going to come of this but we need to let this person know that we do not appreciate this kind of thing in our community. It's supposed to be a place for moviebuffs to get together to discuss, debate, decide, decry and declare. It's not meant to be a place to see links to Sandra Bullock's only nude scene. 

He/She/It disabled commenting here but you can go back to their journal and leave a comment there if you feel the desire to, (do whatever you think you gotta do).

Comic Art Indigene

  • 12th May, 2008 at 12:45 AM

May 11th-January 4th at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture in Santa Fe, Nex Mexico.
Comic Art Indigéne which opens at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture on May 11, 2008 looks at how storytelling has been used through comics and comic inspired art to express the contemporary Native American experience. Under the larger definition of narrative art, comic art is more related to Native American art traditions than one might expect. The earliest surviving examples of such narrative art is rock art. The historic examples used in the exhibition, such as photographs of rock art, ledger art, and ceramics are meant to link Native American art traditions with contemporary voices.

I did not miss Mother's Day. I just called her this time instead of posting on the internet.

And now for something awesome.

Remember that Marvel/DC Olympics poll I linked to?

Here's the results:
As for the swimsuit competition, well, I got about 100 different nominations, which would have broke your LJ to have a vote, so I'm gonna declare all you fanboys and fangirls and your dirty minds winners!

Although if we went by nominations, our overall swimsuit champion would be Nightwing, Mr. Dick Grayson himself, who snagged 20 nominations all by himself. Must have been his early green Speedo years.
As far as the girls went, Power Girl got 4, the most nominations for a girl nominee.


I love the Internet some days.

Which menstrual cup is right for me?

  • 11th May, 2008 at 10:10 PM
Ok everyone. I need some serious help. I want to love my Diva, I do. I've had it for about two or three years now. Everyone raves about it and I am getting downright jealous and annoyed. I can not get mine to work worth anything! I tried it often when I first got it, but since I couldn't get it to work, I forgot about it. Now I try it every other cycle just to keep at it because I love the idea of a menstrual cup.

The thing is, it always leaks. I never seem to have any problem inserting. The cup opens up fine. I have the small size because when I got it, I was a virgin, and now I am twenty-five, sexually active and it still doesn't work.

My question is: has anyone had this sort of problem with the Diva, and found that another menstrual cup worked better for them? I hate tampons because they dry my poor vagina out, and sometimes my flow is so heavy I can't get away with just a pad. I want the freedom, ease and waste free nature of a cup, but if I can't get it to work I might just have to give up entirely (which, even after three years I am NOT willing to do).

Please, help!

The Films of Kim Ki-duk

  • 11th May, 2008 at 9:21 PM
Love them or hate them, if you've ever seen any of Korean film maker Kim Ki-duk's movies you can't deny he's a true master of visual story telling. A friend of mine introduced me to his movies, which at first drove me crazy because his main characters hardly talk to each other at all. Upon later reflection though I realized they were probably some of the most unique films I'd ever seen and many of them have now become some of my favorites. Filled with strange characters that often get progressively stranger as the movies go on, Kim Ki-duk's writing and direction often uses beautiful minimalist locations and slight mystical elements to take his characters, and his audiences, on an extremely personal journey throughout the course of his films. I've been slowly working my way through his body of works and thought I'd share reviews of some of his most well known movies so I could spread the love of a truly gifted film maker and screenwriter.

HBC and Spermicide?

  • 12th May, 2008 at 12:22 AM
Does anyone know of someplace I can find information on effectiveness for combined methods of birth control?
Specifically HBC (OTC-Lo) and spermicide? Do any of you have any opinions on either of those, combined or otherwise? Thank you!

(Also, for the record, I always take my pill at the exact same time every day, +/- maybe 2 minutes?)

How much sex?

  • 11th May, 2008 at 8:58 PM
How much sex do you have? I've been dating my boyfriend for about three months. If it was up to me, we would have sex twice a day every day... or more. As is, we have sex usually five to seven times a week, but not every day (we double up sometimes, hehe). My boyfriend claims that this is "a lot" and I'm just curious about that. I feel like my sex drive is a lot higher than his... is that unsual? For the record, I'm 20 (almost 21) and he's 23. Does age have something to do with it? I'm going to post a poll so I don't have to read through a bunch of comments and try to get a consensus on it, but feel free to comment with more info and your take on it. I don't mean to offend single people, naturally, but I've directed the first poll towards people who are in a relationship of some sort since that's the situation I'm in :)

I figure this can be posted here since it has to do with sex drive. If not, I'll delete it!

he has no sex drive

  • 11th May, 2008 at 10:34 PM
My fiance with whom I live with has absolutely NO sex drive anymore. Like, none at all. Over this past year, (pretty much since we moved in with each other), the amount of sex we have has vastly decreased. When we first started dating two years ago, we would have have sex several times a week. Then sex got fewer and far between. Now it's been a month and he hasn't even touched me. I feel like i'm collecting dust here.
A few nights ago, I broke down and brought up my concerns to him. He said that he's not in the mood anymore because he's extremely depressed because he feels like a failure. He's 30 years old, and still doesn't even have a drivers liscence or a decent job, and we're getting married soon and it's looking like i'm going to be the breadwinner of the family. I told him that I love him no matter what and that it's not the 1950s anymore where the woman stays home and irons clothes while her husband is at the office. He still feels awful and depressed and there really isn't anything I can do. I feel like he's in this rut of depression that probably wont go away until he makes it big somehow. I feel like nothing I say or do will help him in anyway. I also feel like a complete piece of shit because I'm getting frustrated over the lack of sex. But I can't help it, I'm HUMAN. Sometimes I just want to scream "I DONT CARE IF YOU'RE NOT RICH JUST PLEASE FUCK ME EVERY NOW AND THEN!!! GOSH!"
I feel like a jerk.
And my frustration over this intense lack of sex is making me very cranky and is putting a strain on our relationship. To me, sex is therapeutic. It's like the poor mans spa. And without this kind of therapy, stress is just mounting and mounting and i am feeling very unhappy.
I don't really know what to do. I love the guy to death, and if he doesnt want to have sex with me for another five years then we wont have sex for five years. It's just damn frustrating sometimes.
ok, im done venting. =(

V

But on this most auspicious of nights, permit me then, in lieu of the more commonplace sobriquet, to suggest the character of this dramatis persona.

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.

The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.

Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

-"V for Vendetta"
