War Journal Entry number 990 - and furthermore
I don’t understand the mindset of the people whose entire “Pro-Life” stance is centered wholly on preventing people from getting an abortion. They aren’t paying attention to why anyone would want to get an abortion and helping to address those issues, they are just stuck on stopping access. If someone is Pro-Life and was also supporting sex ( Read more... ) -
War Journal Entry number 989 - prove it
How about everyone that wants to use religion to justify their misogyny, homophobia, and racism be forced to follow EVERY SINGLE TENET of their declared religion and not just arbitrarily pick and choose whatever they want in order to hide hate under “religious freedom ( Read more... ) -
War Journal Entry number 987 - Dark Phoenix cosplay
I attended Cleveland Concoction in costume, and I looked awesome. I didn't have the courage to enter the Masquerade contest, and actually didn't even get the chance to go and see it.

The less insidious form just reads like a ( Read more... ) -
War Journal Entry number 984 - HMSlatex
Whenever I’m talking with someone unfamiliar with latex fashion the work of HMSlatex is the first that I show them. Hers is unquestionably my favorite. Sophie's fun and vibrant designs have over the years elevated latex to true fashion. As the cliche goes, she brought it out of the dungeons and onto the runways. And she has consistently retained an ( Read more... ) -
War Journal Entry number 983 - Going Rogue
I've ordered the shirt for the Rogue outfit I'm planning. Yes, it's in latex, but this time it's from my absolute favorite designer, HMSlatex. I ordered matching shorts to make a bodysuit for wearing to places where that would be appropriate. I'll probably end up pairing it with a brown kilt and brown jacket, I'm not sure. Leather for both would be ( Read more... )
