It is World Aids Day today, is anyone's college or work doing anything to raise awareness of it?

Also I would like to take this opportunity to remember Rubberskin, although he didn't die of his HIV he did have it and he was an inspiration to us all.

    Well, I never really Knew Rubberskin, but yeah, I think that more people should be made aware of HIV and AIDS along with the risks and such.

    But don't all people with HIV die as a result of their lack in immune system, or did Rubberskin die of something completely irrelevant?

    i think it was a shame that the mods took his diary down. im sure they needed space and what not, but i think it would have been nice to keep that one up, for rememberance and awareness you know.

    i bet having HIV and AIDS is a real head fuck, i mean i'd feel pretty fucking low if i knew i'd caught a disease that is slowly goin to allow every other disease and virus floating about into my system. i really feel for the people who are suffering from it. and i reckon that due who knowingly infected those women is a sick motherfucker

    Our school did nothing. Not even the ribbons. I was quite disgusted after the fuss they made about Children in Need that they didnt make any effort at all for this, not even seeling ribbons. I bought mine elsewhere.
