6:58a - The fight over boobies.
Got your attention didn't I? Thought I might.

So! If you read the comments of any feeds over on LJ, you're sure to know about a guy named [info]jassa. [info]jassa feels it is his duty to write "BOOBIES!!" in the comments every single day (or whenever the feed is updated) of quite a few RSS feeds. (Including Apod and Something Positive.)

Most think it harmless, pass it by and go on with life. (Though I admit, [info]jassa's You Fail picture makes me very uncomfortable.)

Fortunately, for us, some do take offense

Really, it's all stupid. [info]yonmei lets the splooge fly though.

The poll offers more chances for splooge as well, including thread freezing. (According to [info]yonmei's user info s/h/it's almost 40. Scary neh?)

Ahh well, all this wanking over boobies when there's a cute cat to look at. Awww. Keeeeeeeeeeeetty!

2:53p - Racism in the romance novel industry?
Racism wank among published romance novelists? Apparently, it's out there.

Millenia Black was told to make the characters of her second novel black because she herself is African-American by her publishers. Many people, including Karen Scott are suitably outraged. But, as all such topics do, the wank follows when Shawn weighs in, both on her own blog and in the comments of Karen's entry by comparing Ms. Black's situation to slavery and then demanding to know why people aren't commenting like they should on these posts.

It's a lot of spooge, some of it TLDR, and so should be fun for the whole family.
