Perseids!

So nazgulwears and I went to Theresienwiese tonight, where the Oktoberfest takes place every September (duh!), to look for falling stars, because it's a large open space with not so many streetlamps, in the middle of the city.

We hung out there for perhaps 45 minutes to an hour, and saw three definite big ones, and a few smaller maybes.

When I came home, some strange cats were snarking very loudly in the courtyards, and mine ran from one window to the other, tails very bushy, eagerly observing whatever feline wank was going on outside.-

I'm a person, not an epidemic -- Fat Acceptance 101 link list

It really pisses me off that putting up an advertisement like this is still thought a) acceptable and b) funny. The post I link vigorously protests against it, but an ad agency came up with the bullshit, that organisation is paying for it, and thousands of people are probably finding it funny, not only thin people, and people that 'successfully' fight their own body to stay thin, but fat people of varying degree as well, because they of course (almost) all internalised that they shouldn't be what they are, and all ridicule heaped on them is their own fault.

I have left that building a while ago, and never really looked back.
