Quote: ="shoki_de_nai" Anyone who hates all people of an individual group based on the actions of a few is a bigot and it's upsetting to watch all the support they receive. The amount of anti-LDS rants on FA right now is simply disgusting. Yes, it was wrong to support Prop 8, but that makes it right to single out the LDS church and want to punish all of ******** hypocrisy. Hate a group of people for some of them hating a group of people. But it's okay 'cause they started it. The paradox of tolerance, eh? I've not heard anyone actually attack all Mormons over Prop. 8, just the LDS church, which did behave badly, acting according to the rule, "It's okay to lie if it's for Jesus". The utilitarian model of tolerance, then: I accept you and tolerate you as long as you don't act like a p***k and try to override the rights of others.

People right now are just acting out in fear and anger, it was to be expected. Things will calm down. While certainly I am against the attacks on the churches, hopefully the protests and marches that have been going on shows that the GBT community is not going to take much more inequality.
While I am personally disappointed that more states have gone as far to make lays that do not legitimize same sex marriage, I am not overly upset about it. For the main reason that I know that it is only a matter of time before those laws are reverted and same sex marriages will be recognized nationwide. It may not be anytime soon, but is an absolute eventuality. Count on it.
Till then I still encourage those that wish to be married to at least go through the commitment ceremony and declare themselves married. It may not be recognized as legal, but that does not stop anyone from at least being symbolically married.

Word, Diana.
Okay, for those of you who know what a Dreadnought is - specifically, for those of you who knows what a Mark IV Dreadnought looks like - I've almost finished assembling Honored Brother Tristis and will begin painting shortly. I would appreciate suggestions of color-scheme; relatively simple heraldic schemes preferred, I'm a noob painter.
Also, I'd like to collect black and white ink (or maybe grey ink), I can trade inks for trash and flowers from Towns. Also, gold.

There is no grey ink. Grey body die is made with 250 white inks and 250 black inks.

Shaviv You don't happen to know what kind of colors would look good on a Dreadnought, do you? You can have one painted any color that you want! ... so long as it's gray.

So, my body seems to have randomly decided to change it's scent within the last couple days. It's driving me nuts. I'm walking around smelling like someone else. Not only that, it's a turn for the worse. I smell....sour. xp The unprovoked sweating isn't helping either; seriously I was just sitting and drawing yet I was perspiring. And yes, I shower every day, quite thoroughly and wear a good deodorant. It's not helping. Great. I'm fat, covered in acne and now I smell. As if I wasn't self conscious enough already. Sorry if this is all TMI but I just want to crawl in a box or something and never come out...

Only minimal changes in my diet for my cholesterol, but that's hasn't been in the past couple days. Also, I'm sick a lot 'cause I work with kids. Never had this problem before.

If you're taking anything for cholesterol, it may effect that. Eating garlic (which seems to be in most cholesterol lowering "natural" drugs) will also do this. Somehow if you eat garlic it's not just your breath that will be bad. As for sweating, I can't help you. I can suggest perfumes though...Just don't put too much on. Also, there's always the option of a car air freshener. Sounds bad, but if you just barely open the packaging (I mean barely) you should get enough of the scent to notice a difference without turning you into a walking new car or forest. xp
