off to go camping(Ecohouse dorm camping trip)!
As if we weren't hippie enough- we just had a house debate about how much nudity should be allowed because technically anywhere men can take off their shirts, women can be legally topless. It's wonderful! Many of the girls/women/what are we? in the house are capable of being nonchalantly nude, with all sorts of ideas about healthful nakedness/openness/comfort. Its very interesting- and the upshot of the conversation: a budding nudist colony. Hahaha yay female progressivism.
I went to a non-partisan political discussion group today- the topic anchor was the separation of church and state, but the discussion was WONDERFUL!! The first good tasp-quality debate i've had in a while, mostly by the [student] facilitator's ease at directing the discussion, playing devil's advocate with an endless supply of wonderful conundrums.
mwah.
