Goddamned meat suit and big lies about biology
I don't get PMS, although I do experience physical exhaustion and pain when my period's about to start. I do however, have fucking crazy times when I ovulate. I feel better now that I know what's behind these feelings, but that doesn't stop it being inconvenient to suddenly get reckless and hyper, feel a sudden craving for melodrama and become ( Read more... ) -
Spoilt First-World Vegan Problems
I ran into some interesting vegan problems while travelling in India last year. The one that I haven't figured out and that worries me most when it comes to travelling in the future is the issue of transport animals. There are parts of the world where the only mode of travel is by donkey/camel. I took a brief car trip out into the Thar desert on ( Read more... ) -

The School Holiday Abyss
So I'm on school (by which I mean university) holidays, *without having to attend a paid job* for the first time in like 9 years. I remember how awesome holidays felt when I was a real schoolkid. How you would save up all these things you wanted to do, or you'd just laze around all day in your pajamas. Good times. And I have been looking ( Read more... ) -

Mothers' Day
One of our stray cats has given birth to four tinny kittens in a little hidey hole among some tarpaulins on our back verandah. I feel quite anxious about them, and what their lives will be like.
We are committed to finding homes for them and then getting the mother de-sexed. I just hope the homes they find are loving and safe. If anyone hears of ( Read more... ) -
Companions
I have really bonded with one of the stray cats we have been caring for over the last 6 months. It's been an interesting experience, engaging with an animal who could, if she decided we were scary and untrustworthy, just up and leave. It's different to buying/adopting a pet, where you actively constrain the animal to stay with you, or they ( Read more... )
