Did you know?

Vincent starred as Oscar Wilde in a one-man play, and when it was condemned by anti-gay activist Anita Bryant, he denounced her right back, stating that Oscar Wilde had already come up with a name for her: "a Woman of No Importance".

Going to Canada sale!

As long as this post is up, I’m doing half off prints - you choose the photo(s). Each order comes with a free 4x5″ print of a photo I’ve never posted online. United States and Canada only (sorry).

One criticism we lamas get – especially those who are popularly respected – is that we live in a vacuum and that people always tell us what we want to hear. I try not to fall into that trap and, in fact, enjoy hearing and reading criticisms. For me, Facebook is not just a platform for me to say what I want, but it also really gives me an opportunity to see how people’s minds work.

For instance, I have seen on Facebook that, when push comes to shove, people who don’t normally appear naïve and who consider themselves objective intellectuals are actually not so at all, especially when the case turns against their own deeply held values. Then they seem to lose any sense of objectivity or impartiality. That is always interesting to discover.

We should really contemplate this carefully, because we may not consider ourselves sexist or racist when perhaps we really are. That’s because our so-called sexism, racism and their reverse are so readily manipulated by conditions of all kinds.
