DO YOU THINK CANADA IS FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT IN AFGHANISTAN?

Think again. Rather than listen to corporate media hacks and deceitful politicians, or the politically correct friends and family of ignorant young Canadian soldiers, we might actually try listening to an Afghan for once, to hear what he or she thinks about foreign soldiers in their land.

But they must be glad of us there, right? Aren't Canadian troops there so Afghan girls can evade the Taliban and get an education? So runs the propaganda. But here what Malalai Joya, a courageous Afghan defender of women's rights has to say about the war. I heard her interviewed on CBC radio recently, and she cuts through all the bullshit like a razor.

CANADA FUCKS OVER THE WORLD

I come out of the doldrums of blog inactivity to give you this priceless link. You've gotta read George Monbiot in his blog entry, The Urgent Threat to World Peace is . . . Canada. Fuckin' eh. He's absolutely right.

I think Canada is a disgrace. We are a rich country and have nothing better to offer this troubled world than to fuck it over with our damned tar sands oil and our vicious obstruction of environmental progress.

Who the hell do we think we are? And why do we let our ruling classes do whatever they like? God inspire us to exterminate their power over us. It's way past time.

SOME POST REMEMBRANCE DAY STATISTICS

These are the number of deaths that occurred (civilian and military) as a result of WWII in some of the combatant countries:

USA 274,000
Great Britain 350,000
France 600,000

Italy 500,000
Japan 2,350,000
Germany 6,500,000

USSR 20,000,000 (this figure is almost twice as large as those above put together)

My source is the Worth Press Timechart History of World War II by David Gibbons. The Soviet figure is on the conservative end, compared to other sources I have seen. If I'm not mistaken, deaths in Poland were something like 6 million, and those in China much higher than that.

THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT A WOMAN IN JODHPURS

. . . especially when she's all tied up, like Jilly here.

Now a woman all tied up and struggling is not inherently any big deal erotically, as far as I'm concerned.

In order for such a situation to be hot I believe she ought to be someone too strong, proud, or smart to ordinarily find herself in a position of humiliating powerlessness or indignity.

And what could be stronger, prouder, and smarter than an equestrienne, a woman who controls who knows how many pounds of horse flesh between her sleekly jodhpured thighs? What a comedown it would be to be such a woman, but somehow blindfolded, gagged, and bound to a chair, knowing that the psychological armour of your tight jods, which marked you out as a sexy and superior being, can be instantly subverted by the casual popping of a couple of snaps, and the insolent hauling down of that terrifically strained zipper . . .

VALLEY OF THE VALLEY GIRLS: OR, EXCERPTS FROM A BAD PORN NOVEL

. . . he stuck his thing in her thing and they both groaned loudly.

"Dude," she cried, "like, you're totally awesome."

"Babe," he said, "like totally. You too."

"We're like, totally fucking, you know?"

"Like, let's like totally fuck our fucking brains out, eh?"

"Totally."

Then the door flew open and a full squad of heavily armed penguins entered.

ONE OF THE SEXIEST CATSUIT IMAGES AROUND

is this one by an artist named Coop.

The suit gives the appearance of one that would take a hell of a lot of work to get into. I like that.

I love the shininess, the callipygean rondure, the dizzy, sassy, vulnerable pose, and just the fact the pic is titled Rubber Catsuit (study for Goodyear).

All she needs is a Schraeder valve sticking out of her somewhere, in a spot she didn't notice in the hour or so it took her to jiggle and wriggle and seal herself up in a gynoformic inner tube. She's smiling, but I bet she's tired (forgive me! I couldn't help myself). You know how sharks are said to mistake a wetsuited diver for a seal? All I can say, honey, is don't stand too close to any careless, near-sited mechanic inflating tires! There's a seal that will be put under pressure indeed.

Thanks to Coop for permission to post this luscious work. You can see more of his work here, including a colour version of this piece.
