So much for the Outrage Train.
The Vatican confirms that Pope Francis was rat-fucked into meeting Kim Davis
Now it's coming out that it wasn't even a private meeting - she was actually in a meet-and-greet line. So all that stuff about him approving of her actions and all? Complete and utter bullshit. It's highly unlikely he even knew who she was.
ETA: From another article:
As he left the country, Francis told reporters who inquired that he did not know specific cases in detail, but he defended conscientious objection as a human right.
"It is a right. And if a person does not allow others to be a conscientious objector, he denies a right," Francis said.
So even THAT quote wasn't about Davis. Wow, it's like people who leak information to the press might actually be LYING or something. Fancy that!

Two boys in a knot - how to untangle them?

I've decided not to post what I'm writing in High Contrast for a while.
As those of you reading it know, the pieces have been coming higgledy-piggledy, definitely not in chronological order. But the order that was forming worked, at least for me. The pieces dovetailed in a way I liked.
But I'm not loving the order in which they're coming lately, so I'm holding off in order to do some shuffling once I've got them written. So you might not see more for a while, until I'm satisfied that the rhythm it was in before has been restored - or works well, at least.
This is such a strange problem for me. I've never written anything with chapters before. I've even had to sit down and create a timeline to refer to! Feeling awfully efficient here, lol.
So that's what. I'm still writing, though. It's just not the headlong rush it was before. :)

Here's a nice link:
Magical Wedding Photo
The article is about a beautiful accidental photo of a bridal couple, but that's not why I'm posting the link. Go down to the bottom of the page and check out the slideshow of Best Wedding Photos. Some AMAZING things in there. Quite lovely and imaginative and original.
Man, sure puts those old-fashioned "stand there and stare at the camera" wedding pictures to shame, doesn't it?
