Started watching Transparent Season 2. I don't like it quite as much as Season 1 but there are some interesting issue they bring up. The problem is that (so far) it's even more about the annoying kids and less about Maura.

Sorry Mike, oral surgery sucks!

That looks fucking fantastic Jeffy! When should I be over?

Sorry Brent, that really sucks.

The Official Head-Case Photography Thread.

First, I would be equally upset if there were similar pictures of men posted in this thread. I am not sure if that is what you meant by double standard. I very rarely look at the slower forum thread so I don't know what is in there. I like following this thread to learn about photography and to see what people are doing. I think it is fine to post the pictures with spoiler tags. Also realize that people are allowed to criticize ones photos whether it is about how one composed the photo, choice of subjects, etc. I also find things like the Victoria's Secret Fashion show on tv offensive and would not watch such thing. I never said they were strippers. What I said was that it makes no difference to me if they were a stripper or med student/doctor. I find the pictures slightly offensive and the fact that they are med students/doctors does not mean that it changes the picture. There is no problem with soft porn, I just don't think it should be posted in this thread. I have no problem with the human body. I would not care if a person was walking down the street naked and wouldn't think twice about doing it myself if it didn't bother others. I just have a problem with the way that the models were posed. It just feels demeaning to me (even though I understand that the models were perfectly fine with it). I have no problem with people watching porn, being a stripper (I have been friends with several strippers in my life), etc. -

When CJ posted the half naked women pictures, I was less than pleased but decided not to say anything as I didn't want to make a fuss and be viewed as a prude. I do think that it would have been good to put spoiler tags on them. Since others have said something I thought I should mention some of my thoughts. I am not sure why it matters that they are med students/residents/doctors whatever. Putting up these type of pictures is demeaning to women in my mind and I found them offensive. It is no different than if they were strippers. They are essentially the picture equivalent of soft porn. -
Happy birthday Todd!

I was sad to hear about Scott Weiland. I met him once in college when he was passing through San Luis Obispo. We sat and talked for an hour or so. Drugs suck.

Just got back from the Muse concert - awesome!

Signed the contract to sell my house, wrote 4 letters of recommendation, attended 1 seminar, attended 1 job talk, went to 1 dinner with the job candidate, and dealt with the maintenance staff to try and keep my toilet from splashing... I need a drink.

Yes, please.

Happy Birthday Haj!

Didn't realize there was a Fargo tv show, thanks!

You need an 8 core Mac Pro?
-
I'd eat that!

Fried chicken here too (plus a side of bacon Mac n cheese)... Best "wings" I've had in a long time. Should have ordered the wings instead of the strips though... I always make this mistake.

Happy Birthday Bryan!

Nothing super fancy but everything was really good: Butternut squash souffle, corn bread stuffing, mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy, tamales, slaw with snap peas and some other things, roasted brussel sprouts, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, baked brie, rolls, tart, pie...

Had an all vegetarian thanksgiving at a friend's house. It was fantastic.

Tim and I often made steak for Thanksgiving dinner... much better than turkey.
