There's Some Religious Debate on That Question

[strange_aeons]

I just discovered this list of ages of consent in various places (assorted countries, plus regional laws in the US and Australia). I'm particularly amused by the abundance of places in which the age of consent for male/male sex is higher than the age for male/female and female/female sex (actually, quite often there's no law at all about the latter, even in countries where male/male sex is outright illegal). And I don't know what to make of New Mexico, where the ages of consent for gay and straight sex are thirteen and seventeen respectively. That seems unAmerican.

In other news, I'm considering sprucing up the place a bit, getting a less aggressively complimentary color scheme. This is almost completely irrelevant, because so far as I know I'm the only one who ever sees my aggressively complimentary color scheme, but I feel compelled to mention it because there might be a discussion and that would mean I got to put off doing the actual work.

Hey, I read your friends page sometime, for, like, the two or three random people who aren't on mine. ;)

And it's easier for me to double-check my memory of Soup against your page than it is to find the fucking recipe on my hard drive. ;)

Oh, but, see, religious debate is fun.
I'm trying to do it for a living, after all. Maybe I can even get this consent nonsense fixed.
In short: yes, I am still alive, and how the hell are you?
Marco, -ish. still the same e-mail address.

Okay. You're the sixth person-of-whom-I-think-fondly-but-who-I-haven't-seen-in-months-or-years to reappear this week. This may be the single largest synchronicity in the history of meaningless coincidences.

However, now that I'm done being creeped out, I'm delighted to see you. And haven't the faintest notion what your email address is, but mine is oneironaut at gmx dot net (and very nearly spam-free, which is why I'm going to make you type the thing, sorry).

You ought to get one of these things. A livejournal, I mean, not an email address, you've made it clear you've already got one of the latter. Not the least because I'm better at keeping up on them than I am at maintaining email correspondence.... Actually, you know, it hadn't occurred to me until just now, but I should invite you and tiassa to Overland. MU* environment where Magnesium, Chad and Anna from Endless, and some other people you don't know, sit around, exchange sexual innuendo, and do nothing resembling roleplay, so don't worry.

Drop me an email, you.
