There are some products at Canadian Tire that look promising, but as it is 11:14pm, I doubt the local store is open.  And so I suppose I will have to go to the store when it opens tomorrow.  But does anyone have any suggestions?

Let me tell you a story:
non-disabled people: I've never met you before; can you have sex?
non-disabled people: But how do you have sex? Will you draw me a diagram?
non-disabled people: Wow you're so gross and unusual, I think I'll post your picture on facebook without your permission, and people will admire me for being a Good Person
non-disabled people: Here, let me touch you and violate your personal space without permission.
non-disabled people: Do you need help? No? Ok let me help you.
non-disabled people: Differently Abled
non-disabled people: "The only disability in life is a bad attitude"
non-disabled people: I'm taking disability studies this year. Let me tell you all about disability, and how you should feel about it.
non-disabled people: Disabled people should not want to have sex, because it offends me on a personal level and I believe that I have the right to dictate what other people do with their lives.
non-disabled people: But I have a disabled friend
non-disabled people: But I have a disabled child (...that I'm probably abusing)
non-disabled people: Disabled people are not productive members of society; they don't have a right to live.
non-disabled people: I broke my foot once, I understand.
non-disabled people: If I were you, I would want to be dead. You're so inspiring.
non-disabled people: Why are you so angry all the time?
non-disabled people: Why do you have a crowbar?

dearjimmoriarty: sophistory: bannerisms: The only acceptable crossover here involves Black Widow pepper-spraying her way through the other three canons in order to retrieve all the female characters that have been shat upon by their narratives, and form her own, vastly superior crime-fighting team. everything about this post is perfect yes

Andrew Wakefield/MMR Vaccine/Autism.
goldenheartedrose: confessions-of-a-redhead: I don’t know much about Andrew Wakefield, M.D. or whatever he’s done that’s got the writer of the comment below so upset, but what I do know is that when people talk about autism not being linked to the MMR vaccine, it really bloody upsets me. I have a cousin who is a year older than me. He was born a perfectly, healthy, normal baby boy. A few days...

duessa: You know what’s fun? When someone comes up to you while you’re rolling around and sugars up their voice like they’re talking to a five-year-old to say “You’re moving so well with that!” Or when someone says “Wow, you’re an inspiration! If I were you, I would have killed myself!” Or “oh look at her! She’s so happy even though she’s just a cripple. I guess my day isn’t so bad!” That’s why...
