A side note

Dear Americans,
Outside of your strange, strange country, most of the developed world has this marvellous thing which we like to call health care for all. I'm reading an interesting mpreg (that will teach me not to read the warnings!*) story from hd_hols and the poverty-stricken pregnant one is in despair as his health insurance will not cover it. On the off-chance it was written by someone on my flist, the good for society news is that in the UK, this is not the problem you might think it is! And I have my fingers crossed that in the US, it won't be for much longer, either.

(And if anyone is planning to respond telling me that socialised healthcare is evil, I will LAUGH AT YOU, and then I will QUOTE REAMS OF STATISTICS until you FLEE.)

* And yes, my dislike of mpreg is not supported by the excellent writing that occurs within that genre and the imaginative plots that many superior writers bring to bear on the concept. But I still don't like it!

On the fourth day of Christmas, blamebrampton gave to me ...

Artses and cheerios from A to B!*

I was talking with Moo earlier today (or possibly yesterday) and decided that after her brave battle with the plumbing, she should be Steampunk SuperMoo. So I drew her. Poorly. But with love!




Sorry about the dodgy image quality, I had to take a photo of my sketchbook. That's a watch in her hand! So you know when to add the Drano next! And wrenches on the bandolier and a hammer and pouches on the belt!

And now, quick personal messages to my flist. Which may take a little longer than I thought it would, let's do this in shifts, first 2-B ...

ETA: Edited to fill all number, A and B names, hurrah!
( Where did you all come from?? )

* And, apparently, inflammatory political discussions. Sorry!

** Thank youscrtkpr ! I just went to my profile to copy and paste some names, and I found the most darling polar bear! Bloody LJ and its sporadic notifications!
