nilchanceOh, Helen Mirren, no.
Anti-fat legislation in Alabama may have deadly consequences.
Why I don't support the Jerry Lewis telethon: Lewis was contacted because the young man said he wanted to go off the vent and die. Lewis reported to the Telethon audience that when he telephoned this young man, he apologized to Lewis for not beating the “disease." He'd told his parents that he was sorry for having brought them down and being a burden. He took himself off the vent (which could not have been done without the permission of his parents). This, said Lewis, is why we have to beat this disease. Lewis said not a word about assuring him that he was not a burden, or arguing that this was a bad reason to decide to die, or suggesting that he wait-and-see, not even to wait for the cure the Telethon has been promising all these years.
And, just to cut through the depression: Rescue Ink, an organization of bikers against animal cruelty. Do I have to mention how bad I want a Jeff/Jensen AU where Jeff is a big bad biker who saves kittens? No, I do not.

That one pic with the tiny, tiny kitten in those big, tough guy hands...I don't know if I was more "grabby hands" over the kitty or the biker.
