I would just like to say, for the record, that I absolutely detest political blogs. It doesn't matter what "side" it's on. It's just people whining and bitching on the internet about stuff that they are too "busy" or lazy to actually change, using all manner of hateful and loaded rhetoric.
I am SICK SICK SICK of hate-filled propoganda. From anyone. If you can't say/type something even somewhat civil, STFU.

Don't hate, we all gotta start somewhere. =D Okay, okay. So I'm no Katherine Rowland, JRR Tolkien, or JK Rowling. But Tamara liked the story so I figured it was good enough to self-publish on Amazon.com as a SUPER INEXPENSIVE (check it- $.80) short story for the Kindle (or an iPhone if you download Kindle for iPhone free app).
I'm considering writing and publishing one short story a week and make myself a super prolific Kindle author. They'll all be with roughly the same background and trailblaze that oh-so-popular comedic sci-fi genre. ;)

My awesome bro's band, Shortwave Dahlia, is going to be releasing their album soon! I'm really excited because they rock. If you have ears, or even if you don't, you will probably like their stuff.
Check out their new perm link to their Facebook page:

I just posted a Yumbunny blog about inducing love or feelings of love via chemical means:
The thing is, those of you who have read my LiveJournal for a few years will remember that I had done my own research into serotonin, vasopressin, oxytocin, etc. in regards to love, inducing love, and using "love cocktails" to help people fall out of love. Since long-term love requires more than just a potent "love potion" (compatibility, attraction, conflict resolution, etc. are ongoing), a "love drug" to induce love would be silly. The effects would be short-term at best and wouldn't lead to long-lasting relationships.
However, a medicine to be used as therapy to ease heartache, help treat attachment disorders, etc? THAT would be incredibly helpful. Think, for instance, of a woman suffering from post-partum depression. She doesn't feel bonded with her baby, her hormones have taken a serious plunge with her mood, and she is truly suffering. Rather than taking antidepressants which can be passed along to baby in breast milk, what if during therapy she was administered a cocktail of oxytocin, vasopressin, and serotonin? Would this help speed along her recovery? Would it help her begin her initial bonding to baby, ease some of her feelings of anxiousness, and assist
I think that pushing aside our initial horror of "OMG, SYNTHETIC LOVE" and spending time investigating the therapeutic usages of such "love potions" could aid many people in their ongoing battles with mental health issues.

This video is very, very cool. A tourist put her video camera on a conveyor belt in Japan and records the people in the restaurant. It really hits home that regardless of culture, race, geography, etc. we (humans) are all very much the same. :)

The public blog for HelenAngel.
This is my Second Life blog where I talk about my experiences as Luthien Biziou. On Second Life, I am a GM of 2 RPG sims (SLMidgar.com & WorldofHogwarts.org if you wanna check them out online) and am essentially a virtual real estate agent. This is particularly funny because I know nothing about real estate in real life and don't even own my own house.
