Pro-Lifers Declare ?Ejaculation Is Murder: Every Sperm Cell Is A Life?


Recommended Posts

Anyone prepared to start a Seinfeld-style admission of 'going solo'?


Perhaps you've been 'hammering the keyboard' 'directing traffic in a sleepy cul-de-sac' or 'gesticulating angrily at an imaginary foe'?


Just realised that by putting '' round a phrase makes it innuenod-ey, so if anyone wants to carry on in that vein then more power to your elbow.


Oh wait, 'carry on in that vein' and 'more power to your elbow'. Now see what I'm getting at?


Anyone else want to throw their hat in the ring?


That is 'throw their hat in the ring'?

I was watching some funkiness on YouTube and reading the comments underneath.


One said:

?I can imagine Shaft pulling up in a Cadillac and jumping out to beat the shit out of someone.? The next comment says ?I can imagine someone pulling up in a Cadillac and jumping out to beat the shit out of his shaft.?

Well it fooled me. I was in America recently and I could believe almost anything, I saw a group of black protestors at the time of the ?Black Lives Mater? demonstrations so I wandered over to read their posters. All they said was ?God hates faggots & lesbians?


Then there is this guy:




PS He wouldn't serve Muslims and was voting for Trump.

I guess for me the problem is that the slogan 'pro-life' rather prejudges what it claims to argue. If this is life then it must count. But we do not and could not count every life as worth preserving, even if human.


We do not, in fact, have much idea about what constitutes life from a biological point of view. Some kind of emergent autopoietic machination? For sure, no ontological difference to green slime, and almost certainly not to sedimented rocks either.


The pro-life move is to purify the sacred human in its entirety. But there is a severe risk here with all the evil that potentially entails from such absolutism. No one here would be extremist, but there is a seductive logic to the ill-educated once the matter is ontologised as everything-human-is-sacred: if you disagree you may turn out less human than us or even anti-human - so there are people who will murder doctors who carry out abortion.

Well, what a thought, I may (depending on my gender) have fathered everyone in the world who is 12 years or so younger than me.


Reminds me of an old joke about a bet, a man and a dog, two wheelbarrows and a naturist beach. Was tempted to tell it as it is not offensive (in terms of against another group) but I am sure I would have been told off.


So, in the old days of bumper stickers there were only two that amused me.


"Retired, spendng children's inherentence"


And


"diver self pleasuring, no hand signals"

    • Driving down Lordship lane around 2.45pm today saw a v sick looking fox walking in and out of the crowd. 
    • I know I'm a bit premature but don't want to forget through too much Chrisntas cheer! Southwark Council Christmas trees recycling arrangements 2025 - bit worrying for the future that they're emphasising the free bit. "We’ll collect and recycle your real Christmas tree for free!  Trees should not be taller than 5ft. You should chop any taller trees into smaller pieces. Remove all decorations and the pot or stand and recycle it by: putting your tree with your garden waste containers on collection day requesting a free collection if you do not have a garden waste collection  taking it to our Reuse and Recycling Centre [43 Devon Street, SE15 1AL open 08:30-16:30 Mon-Sun] If you live in a flat you must leave the tree: outside on the kerb visible for the collection crew not in a bin store" I'll add the link to the collection booking service when it opens on 22 December. 
    • Most homes in East Dulwich / Good Green ward have collections on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. So no changes for them this year.  But for those few local homes with collections normally on Thursdays or Friday, with Christmas, Boxing day happening on Thursday and Friday any blue, brown or green bin collections will be delayed by two days. So Thursday 25 December collections will be on Saturday 27 December and Friday 26 December collections on Sunday 28 December. For New Years day those Thursday collections will be on the Friday 2 January and those with normal collections of Fridays that will be on Saturday 3 January. To double check when your Southwark Council rubbish, recycling, food waste, garden waste collections will be taking place please please check here - https://services.southwark.gov.uk/bins/lookup
    • Luckily I don't really any regular reason to park at Dawson Heights.  It must be very difficult for the residents I do feel for them.  Thank you for them.  I just presumed that Southwark owned the estate and would be responsible for parking enforcement there.
