Fading Lights

Discovered this on Facebook today: Bi-Paternal Twins: Fraternal Twins with Different Fathers.

This seems to me to be an excellent reason for those of us in Fandom who love threesomes and Rangers With Tiny Children stories to write them. Or more specifically, more of them. Because rare or not, this is a Thing, and Science has proven it.

Thank you, Science.

I feel vindicated now.

This article absolutely made my day today: Can a Single Pill Change Your Life?

It comes after the article I was linked this article yesterday, which is fantastic news: FDA approves first study on ecstasy-assisted therapy for social anxiety in autistic adults.

For those of you who don't know, MDMA (aka Ecstasy) was originally created to be a therapeutic drug in the sixties. It was supposed to be given to therapists, who would guide their patients through a trip to give them better understanding of themselves and their fears. Unfortunately drug dealers got ahold of it, and the rest is history. For the FDA to have finally approved it to be used the way it was *meant* to be, is ... beyond words.

The reason this is so important to me? One of the men mentioned in today's article is my grandfather. He was one of the people who endorsed MDMA, and hoped to see it used to help people.

While he's no longer with us, my dad put it best: 'Nice to see his life's work still has value.' ♥

Versions 1 and 2 of Fade to Darkness have both been posted on AO3! ^_^V My fingers hurt now. x.x

In other news, I may be developing some form of illness, and my muses are on crack and demanding I have a PR marathon. Which I would totally be willing to do, if I had all of MMPR downloaded. Or Netflix. -Mourns Megaupload-

Oh, and Amazon SUCKS. -Glares and kicks them- Them and their stupid ridiculously overpriced shipping. >.<

But then there's this, which proves of why I love Ellen DeGeneres. She's just that awesome. ♥
