neverwhere

I finally convinced the Wombat to watch this movie the other week. Who knows why he still doubts my taste in movies, or at least my taste in movies that I deem he must watch and enjoy, but he does. Or, did. He didn’t believe the Mr. Kilmer had done anything remotely respectable since Real Genius.

I proved him very very wrong.

I couldn’t believe how funny this movie was when I went to see it a few years ago, and how ridiculously cleverly hilarious it still is.

Perry: Go. Sleep badly. Any questions, hesitate to call.
Harry: Bad.
Perry: Excuse me?
Harry: Sleep bad. Otherwise it makes it seem like the mechanism that allows you to sleep…
Perry: What, fuckhead? Who taught you grammar? Badly’s an adverb. Get out. Vanish.

Cameron, THIS.

KKBB is my favorite movie of all time and I will not cease reblogging it until all of the Tumblr universe shares my opinion.

Why Doesn't Health Care Cover Birth Control? Politicians won’t address the subject.

In truth, a broader sentiment seems to be fueling the discomfort with contraception. Perhaps the American Life League gets to the heart of it best, noting on its website that birth control leads to “a state of mind that treats sexual activity as if it has nothing to do with babies”—i.e., to put it in plain terms, promiscuity. Birth control somehow shades into abortion, and together both lead women down the path to immorality.

Few in Washington or elsewhere would cop to such plainly sexist views. Once it’s actually put into words, the blanket condemnation of all sex without the intention of making babies is obviously out of step with the way most people think and live. It’s arguably even more retrograde than the idea that certain methods of birth control are equivalent to abortion. Yet in July, when senators debated an amendment put forward by Barbara Mikulski proposing full coverage of birth control and other preventive women’s health services, the conversation focused on Planned Parenthood and abortion, despite the fact that neither was mentioned in the amendment.

Dear antichoice, antiautonomy, antiwoman nazis: viagra’s covered. Their ads don’t read: “Still have some seeds to sow? Now’s your chance to make the baby you’ve always wanted!” You don’t see any churches up in arms about viagra coverage.

Château de Noisy, Celles, Houyet, Namur, Belgium (via missionabandoned)

Le Château de Noisy (also named Château Miranda) was built by the English architect Milner in 1866 as a summer home for the family of the Count of Liedekerke-Beaufort. The family stayed there until World War 2, when the castle was briefly occupied by the Nazi’s. In 1958, the NMBS (the Belgian railroad company) used it as a home to shelter the railroadmen’s children and wives.

Since 1991 the building is abandoned. The village of Celles tried several times to buy the castle and its ground but the family doesn’t want to take distance of the castle. The building has over 500 windows, which are almost all shattered along with several of the staircases inside. There is still a clock tower of 56 meters tall. The castle is popular amongst urban explorers.
