I didn't notice it was World AIDS Day 'til it was over.  I didn't know about the sodomy case.<\/p>\n<p>I somehow can't muster much hope that this particular Supreme Court is going to overturn any sodomy laws.  But we'll see.  The uffish piece does make it sound more possible than I would've expected.<\/p>\n<p>We've got a story coming up in a few months at <cite>SH<\/cite> that would make a really good World AIDS Day story, but I don't want to hold onto it 'til next December.  Similarly, we've got a Halloween story that we won't be waiting 'til October to run.  I should probably put five-months-ahead reminders on my calendar for holidays that we could run stories for, and post notes saying \"Hey!  Send us stories now for such-and-such holiday!\"<\/p>\n<p>I'm not sure what my point is, or whether I have one.  Maybe partly that one reason I haven't been talking politics much here recently is that I've been practicing being an ostrich.  Stick head in sand, maybe it'll all go away.  Sigh.<\/p>\n<p>I wish I had some answers.  Some viable answers, I mean.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday was World AIDS Day.
