OpinionsLucrative Liquids
Would it make sense if my landlord installed a coin machine that charged me a dollar to get into my apartment? How about if air was privatized and I had to pay by the breath? The answer to both questions is no. It would be completely ridiculous to pay for something that I already own.

Analogies are like a fish without a bicycle… no, wait. Analogies are like tadpoles without a tricycle… Ah, forget it.

OpinionsSheep in Wolves’ Clothing
After approximately five hours of shooting at the last big protest I covered for The Link, I walked away with a few hundred pretty decent photos, a bruised nose and a couple riot baton-shaped lumps that stayed on my ribs longer than that week’s issue of the paper was on the stands.

OpinionsSex and Pancakes
My boyfriend is on the small side and I’ve always believed in safe sex but it’s hard when even slim condoms fall off or get stuck in me. How can we be safe? Also, is there any way to make sex more pleasurable in light of this problem?

Imagine being unable to use public washrooms because of who you were or how you looked. Having to always get your bodily functions in order before you left the house, because there was no real chance of relieving yourself at any public facilities.
