Linkspam, the weekend edition:

Y'all have probably seen this, but whatever.

- Jessica Simpson, the mountain out of a molehill celebrity thing. Jesus H CHRIST, people, look at how cute she is! Lookit the wee belly! I think she's gorgeous with a little extra weight. Stupid mass media, making me side with Ashlee Simpson, but: is this the message you want to send your daughters? Is it surprising that our country has such a high incidence of eating disorders?

- Why is Venus on a diet? I FOAMED when I got this in my e-mail, and I seriously considered whether I should post it again. But if we don't rage and flail when stupid shit like this happens, people will forget that it is indeed the stupidest of shit. Also, plz consult my earlier rant about the goddess being represented as a) white, and b) too skinny to lift a sword or an apple.

- Icon Me Monday, or "I think I'm linking my thread correctly."

What in the ever-loving hell?! Okay, I'd heard a little bit about the Jessica Simpson thing and was prepared for the stupid but the second link? No. No no no no. I have to go read some Kate Harding now to convince my head not to explode. . .

Oh, Kate Harding, how I love her. She's kept my head from detonating many times.

(Silly question: have you seen Fat Rant?)

I don't think so, unless it's one of those things that I've seen but am blanking on the name (always possible. lol) Is it a movie, or something up on YouTube, or. . .?

Aie! My old, dying computer is throwing another fit and refusing to let YouTube work. Will save this link and watch in a week or so when my replacement arrives. :-)
