AARGH! mincemeat rampant peruses oldnews!
(despite some appearances and lots of insinuations,
mostly from the chuckf, I do NOT spend my whole day
readnewsing, and missed the creation of mod.ber
entirely)
Said chuck besmirches my alabaster reputation with
guilefully stolen personal tidbits gleaned from our
illicit personal life; cold, chaz, cold...
(Incidentally, I ALWAYS raise the lid, ALWAYS!)
I am also emphatically not attempting to gain control of
anything, except maybe myself, and that looks like a
multi-year project... However, I do miss the halcyon
days of rabbit!bimmler and the vicious attacks slashing
across my video; I certainly have enough strong opinions
on the subject of suicide and self-determination to
raise some roockus, as my dear ole pappy would so
quaintly put it, in his backwoods drawl...
I am also peeved enough at uqui the numb's vile
personal attack on my innocent monday morning to
make some good submissions to net.letter.bomb...
I am coming to the opinion that most of the netpeople
are fucking bugeyed looney.... yow!
Anyway, here's an opinion for you f.b.l.'s out there,
or rather a conceptual flow:
Self-determination is the primest of human 'rights':
Self-determined actions, in that they affect only one's
self or the opinions of others, need have no rational
basis, no intrinsic merit, and no sense or explanation.
Suicide is by definition a self-determined act
Subject then to the qualifications above, there is no
reasonable objection that can be raised to anybody
who damn well feels like it offing the self for whatever
silly-ass, meaningless, stupid reasons that seem
appropriate. It doesn't have to make any sense. It's
a personal choice.
As a personal choice, it's none of yer business, boys & girls.
