winters_queenDay 1 of my World Building Blog Hop entry is here. It should be interesting to see what I can pull out for my steampunk world and redoing history and all that fun stuff.
What the hell did I get myself into with it. XD Either way I do need to get things nailed down if I want to do anything for it. I actually thought of something for the African area but as for a plot, that is alluding me. You know, for saying I was going to take a break from Steampunk to give my mind a rest, it doesn't seem to want to rest now that I'm not concentrating on it.
Of course with the good comes the raging stupidity. There are two links. Second one has a rape trigger so proceed with caution. That one just makes me rage so hard.
Arizona Republicans propose bill to not allow athiests to graduate high school. - Yes, because nothing screams trying to push your own religious agenda than punishing kids who want to graduate.
New Mexico Bill Would Criminalize Abortions as Tampering evidence. - What the ever loving FUCK! Yes, because nothing is as traumatizing as rape but PLEASE lets punish the woman more by making her carry it to term so you can get 'evidence'. Last I checked, they could get DNA evidence from the fetus without putting the woman through anything like this. And this is a bill brought up from a female Republican!
This just makes me gnash my team and want to punch a politician in the face. Emphasis is mine:
UPDATE: 12:25 p.m. -- Brown said in a statement Thursday that she introduced the bill with the goal of punishing the person who commits incest or rape and then procures or facilitates an abortion to destroy the evidence of the crime.
“New Mexico needs to strengthen its laws to deter sex offenders,” said Brown. “By adding this law in New Mexico, we can help to protect women across our state.”
Yes, because NOTHING protects a woman more but making her carry her rapist's child to term. IDIOT!
And they wonder why they can't get seats when once again they show such a HUGE disconnect with people.
Now I'm going to go look at pictures of kitties to help with my mood.
