Was listening to music last night and thought of some songs that could (possibly) fit laughingstock! the ones that came to mind were "Everybody loves somebody" by Dean Martin, "I've got a feeling I'm falling" by Annette Hanshaw and "I wanna be loved by you" by Marilyn Monroe (pretty random? yes) I was wondering your opinion about them and what songs do you think would fit them! :)
stunning wonderful i can Especially dig the second one in relation to them - i can very much see Howdy singing it to himself!

The way men construct the world to enhance their image of themselves (appropriating women's resources and denying women's being in the process) is explored at some (satirical) length by [Ruth] Herschberger. One section of her book is entitled ‘Patriarchal Society Writes Biology’ and in it she outlines the definitions and theories with which we are familiar, and in which men have interpreted phenomena to provide themselves with a favoured place. But then she has a section entitled ‘Matriarchal Society Writes Biology’ in which she provides alternative definitions and theories, in which women are provided with a favoured place, and the contrast is dramatic.
Having given a customary account of the development of the embryo, from a male point of view, in which the male embryo is the positive norm, Herschberger proceeds to describe the embryo and its development from a woman's point of view: ‘The male, we find, does not develop in any important way from the asexual or early embryonic state,’ she writes. ‘His sexual organs remain in an infantile condition, displaying an early arrest of development’ (ibid., p. 79). This amounts to ‘outrageous distortion’ because it reserves ‘activity’ for the female and reduces the male to a 'passive' and ‘invisible’ state, and Herschberger continues with other 'outrageous distortions' along the same lines. ‘The male sperm’, she says, ‘is produced in superfluously great numbers since the survival of any one sperm or its contact with an egg is so hazardous and indeed, improbable. The egg, being more resilient, and endowed with solidity, toughness, and endurance, can be produced singly and yet effect reproduction’ (ibid., p. 82).
The world looks very different when female imagery is invested with centrality, visibility, and strength. ‘After the sperm are drawn into the vicinity of the egg,’ she states, appropriating for female the motion of the sperm, in exactly the same way that males have appropriated female activity for themselves in the past, ‘the egg by some little known mechanism selects one cell from the many present. Sometimes none of the sperm suits the egg, in which case there is no fertilization’ (ibid., p. 84). It is not the (usual) active, daring, venturesome little sperm that goes off to transform a passive egg, that we see here, but a central, strong, independent and selective egg that surveys the offerings it has commanded, and sometimes chooses not to have anything to do with any of them. Herschberger's point is that one description is no more valid, at this stage, than the other.

Henry would get sick to his stomach whenever Jesse had anything remotely close to a cold after their mother died. Because he assumed that either Jesse was going to follow along behind Ruth's illness, or Ruth would get worse because of her weakened immune system.

Unless it gets real snowwy real fast, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that I won't be able to get pictures and/or videos of my NPMD cosplays out until Thanksgiving break.
On the bright side, we aren't doing Thanksgiving at my house this year, so I'll have plenty of time to film.
