Ok, i know that by saying things like the title is a way to have the gods notice you, but... What an amazing freaking week so far.
Yesterday, i went to the Y for the first time in...well forever it seems. The fitness guide, Nathaniel, was an absolute sweetheart, he understands where i'm going and aside from some pronoun trouble, he is great... and sorry Dani... he is cute too. so I'm doing that again Wednesday.

Well, this year i set it in my head that i was gonna fully transition, it being 2012 and all, i sorta figured if the world did end and i didn't get going, i would be very cranky in heaven.
That being said, i came out to six people at the !bingo hall! where i volunteer, so eep.
I told the charity managers on two of the four charities i volunteer with, one co-worker, one of the Hall managers, a runner i trust and think is wonderful and one patron who is a post op T girl... so either my trust is well placed or... things will get, shall we say, sticky... also, eep.
I hope i wasn't stupid,

The Associaçá£o da Luta Contra o Cancer (ALCC) in Mozambique has had several great PSAs over the last few years, but this one caught my eye as a geekette...Nuff Said!.
Excelsior, True Believers!

Hiyo! your favourite little old News Agrigator Me, with sciency stuff on Physical Sex development... a fascinating read from Boing Boing.

Gender isn’t a simple thing. A person can be male, female, both, neither, and more–and that identity doesn’t have to have anything to do with the particular genital plumbing they were born with.

But the plumbing itself–the biological sex, rather than gender or socio-cultural sex–is also a lot more complicated (and interesting) than we often give it credit for.

Happy Birthday Darling Lisa Dani,
Have the bestest day ever,
Love and big Hugs,
Diana

Hi ladies 'n gentle beings! 'Tis I, Diana, your loopy Moongoddess, anxious and eager to share a wonderful, beautiful look at the city i call home.

Toronto Tempo is a short time-lapse film that really shows off the T-Dot in a way that no recent film has.

I hope you enjoy a wee vacation :) when you get to veemo, probably best to switch hi def off as it slows down the stream... Anyways... welcome to my city!
Hugs,
Diana

And please as you read this, remember that this is just my opinion, that i don't assume to speak for anyone else and yes it was fiction i just read. on to the rant:

I just read a story series that was well plotted, well thought, a good read and... it made me fracking angry. Not at the author, not at the ideas presented, but at the concept of behaviour modification and ego death. The idea of 'We don't like how you think, so we will change the way you think'.

What do you listen to when you write? i'm writing Slacker 3 right now and i have been trying to get into a skater mindset, so Phantom Planet, ween, Fountains of Wayne, Avril... a little, offspring... but i was wondering if anyone else soundtracks their writing?
Rawking out,
Diana

You have all made me feel so welcome as a new author (3+ months) that my head still spins with the comments... I give Kudos to all of you reading, commenting or just enjoying the amazing high quality writing that all of the creators offer here, and kudos to the people who keep this site up and running so that silly girls like me have an outlet to ramble on... Thank you all... More to come soon!
Hugs,
Diana

DC comics shipped the second week of the ‘New 52’ titles and out of 13,
I picked up seven to give them a shot after being underwhelmed by Justice League #1 last week. The titles available were:

ACTION COMICS #1, ANIMAL MAN #1, BATGIRL #1, BATWING #1, DETECTIVE COMICS #1,
GREEN ARROW #1, HAWK AND DOVE #1, JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL #1, MEN OF WAR #1,OMAC #1, STATIC SHOCK #1, STORMWATCH #1 and SWAMP THING #1.

Fellow beings, Hello. As you may or may not have noticed, i'm a little behind on part 5 of Magnetic Personality. this is more or less because i paid little attention to hard science in school and more attention to science fiction and comic books. well... I've really been trying to understand the fundamental science involved... I've wiki-ed, I've Googled and even asked Jeeves... the basics are making for brain aneurysms in my poor button head, but i want to be fair to those who have, well despised (smiles) my lack of scientific knowledge.

After various tweaks and edits... Lorna's story continues with Magnetic Personality 4.
Hope you enjoy it!

I had originally posted this in the comment section of the final chapter of Maggie Finson's Shades Of Grey, in Lilith Langtree's Comics Retcon Universe.

After posting there, i realized i had to share this broadly..
