Hell Nope: I'm nobody. I'm nothing.
It bothers me when I get shitty messages from people telling me I’m nobody and I’m nothing so “why do I think I’m too good to follow them”. Dude, that’s your projection. You think I think that. That doesn’t make it true. I don’t think I’m better than anyone. Smarter. Kinder. Less of a TWAT. Yes….
I'm not real, I'm just bones.: I have serious problems with people who didn't seem to understand from reading the Hunger Games that Thresh and Rue are...
This is Rue’s physical description in the book: “She has bright, dark eyes and satiny brown skin and stands tilted up on her toes with her arms slightly extended to her sides, as if ready to take wing at the slightest sound.” -pg. 98, The Hunger Games
Thresh is also explicitely described as…
How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Feminists
“…Though no one would ever think of using the term honor violence (we reserve that descriptor for brown people who live somewhere else, motivated by religious something-or-other or tribal something-or-other), one-third of women murdered every year in the United States are killed by their intimate partners. In 2005 that amounted to 1,181 women, or three women every day. To put that in perspective, the UN estimates there are 5,000 honor killings every year in the entire world. 5,000 in a world of 6 billion versus nearly 1,200 in a single country of 300 million. In other words, a woman in America runs a greater risk of being killed by her husband or boyfriend than a woman in Pakistan. Those are scary numbers.”

Making use of that shallow DOF.
Public Proposal of the Day: During the second intermission at the Senators-Maple Leafs matchup this past Saturday, smitten Senators supporter Christina proposed to her girlfriend Alicia, a Leafs-lover, in the middle of the ice rink, as the Scotiabank Place crowd went wild.
Turns out the homophobes were right: Same-sex marriage is a slippery slope. A Sens fan marrying a Leafs fan? Abomination.

… BECAUSE THIS IS TOTALLY PUNK ROCK. IT’S NONCONFORMIST.
YEAH, BUT IT’S ALSO COLD, AND ANNOYING. WHY CAN’T WE MIGRATE AND THEN CHALLENGE SOCIETAL NORMS?
XTC’s English Settlement album came out February 12, 1982. Here’s a bit of a TV-broadcast live show from a few days earlier (one of their last): “No Thugs In Our House,” “Senses Working Overtime” and the oldie “Making Plans for Nigel.”
MOTHER OF GOD.
MCCLUSKY, CLEAR THIS AREA. NOBODY TOUCHES ANYTHING UNTIL MY TEAM’S GOT HAIR AND FIBER SAMPLES, FINGERPRINTS, THE WORKS. AND KEEP YOUR MEN OFF THEIR RADIOS. I DON’T WANT ANY PRESS, YOU HEAR ME? NONE.

THIS IS THE SECOND VICTIM THIS WEEK. I FEAR THIS IS ONLY JUST BEGINNING.
Obama sings! He sings Al Green!
In the office late tonight, we all just took a break to huddle around someone’s computer and grin like idiots at this.

“The Learning Channel’s new show All-American Muslim is a great step in the effort to counter the bias that exists against many Muslim families in the United States. We believe that programs which promote tolerance and family values should be given all the support they can get. Shows like All-American Muslim which show loving families, strong bonds between husband and wife, the affirmation of the nuclear family are few and far between.
I encourage you to support (or continue supporting) this show with your advertising dollars. You are our only hope for a better tomorrow for our families.”“
Whoa.
