If you haven’t been following the news, you probably fainted when you read the title of this post!!!

I’m not much on activism, as you may have been able to tell from my recent post about how you can’t make a difference.  But I received a challenge on my message board this morning that I couldn’t resist!  My current avatar features the ever free-spirited Skanki Skankova in tribal paint boiling ES in a pot, and when the news broke this morning that Russian female punk band Pussy Riot was charged with the heinous crime of “hooliganism”, and sentenced to two years in jail, it came to be that Mini thought a picture of Skanki in a ripped Pussy Riot shirt would be awesome.  Skanki was a natural to represent the band, not just since she’s about as punk as it gets, but being a borzoi she also has a rich Russian heritage.  Naturally, I couldn’t resist adding a few other touches, like the preverted Buster reaching around to lift her top, a tribute to one of the best music videos of the 1980’s. (NOTE: If you click on that link, forward to about 1:30 for the video, unless you want to see the band interview accompanying it and a lot of…. um, more revealing tributes to the moment I’m referencing).

Well, anyway, here’s to you Pussy Riot!  Keep the faith, and don’t drop the soap!  And remember that we’ve got your back, because nobody should ever have to go to jail for hooliganism…

She’d be locked up for life!
