gwydion* Riot Police in Mexico clashed with student protesters headed to a protest of official corruption related to those students disappeared last year.
* All these left people crushing on the Pope make me a little queasy. Not one mentions his repeated virulent hate speech aimed at trans folk. Not one points out that nothing he has done is substantive. Sure, his words aimed at everyone but us are pretty, but he's not gone after the Bishops and Archbishops that protected pedophiles for example. There's a whole list of things like that. Birth control? Still not allowed. Denying women medical care for ectopic pregnancies and miscarriage so that they needlessly die slow horrible deaths even though there is no live fetus to protect? Still sanctioned, nay encouraged. Antigay policies? Still in place. Women Priests? No. It's all pretty speeches and no policy.
Fuck Pope Francis. I'm not a terrorist or a nuclear weapon, and fuck the left for pretending he's anything other than particularly good PR for a church that's just as hateful as it's always been. he's not a true reformer, merely a pretense of reform.

* Today my body vetoed all non-bed related activity until 10:30PM. So: behind on everything. On the upside the largest ebay paid right away, so I've now enough for car insurance +postage in my account again. The rest is going to medical copays to try to stop my being sent to collections when it comes in. I won't have enough to cover all the medical bills, but there is enough for the most important one.
After lungs I did poke about in the Gothmas boxes I had out. I found the tree lights and the large pieces of Halloweentown, but not the ornaments or the small bits. More closet delving is required.
