Totally masochism. I’ve got to stop somehow. I’ve got that icky slimey feeling all over me now. I should have known better not to click that article.
Nice to see you too :)
Ok, so I know I practially never post anymore
But I still go to Jez once in a while, and I know most of you are Jez refugees. So I just want to say, somewhere people will understand, Jenna is the wooooooooooooorst! Ugh, holy hell on a hotdog bun in St. Louis. (No, I don’t know what that means.) She really buys into this weird NYC elitist hipster scene doesn’t she? That article she just posted on “Art.” I seriously just barfed all over my keyboard. Why do I keep going back? Whhhhyyyy?
To our troops overseas and their families and friends missing them, we’re thinking of you tonight. Stay safe and may you come home soon. Thank you so much for your sacrifice.
To those of you saying this is only symbolic, this pic says it all. If it’s true, and that mother-fucker is dead, it is a big fucking deal. Will we have achieved world peace tomorrow? No. But think about it, these are people willing to commit murder over comics of an old dead dude- symbols are a big fucking deal. And damn, if he didn’t have it coming.
During the Great Depression, the American dream, the ultimate goal of society, was to have a “chicken in every pot.” Now it’s owning two automobiles and a runabout boat and all sorts of other things. During the middle of the 20th century, the US Chamber of Commerce’s slogan was “Build the Middle Class.” That is something worthwhile. Now, a half century later, we’re face to face with the phenomenon of the middle class being precipitously plunged into something less than middle class. And the flight of industry and capital to other low-cost labor markets in the world has left America to wither on the vine, so much that instead of worrying about “rust belts” we would do well to start worrying about a “rust continent.” To my mind, that is nothing less than high treason. Capitalists decided they were going to escape from two centuries of bloody, painful struggle to improve labor conditions. They packed it up to go to places where they didn’t have to worry about child-labor laws, workman’s comp, unemployment insurance, retirement insurance, safety regulations, or environmental protection. This means the Industrial Revolution is starting over again with no holds barred. What that means for the future remains to be seen. I think it has the potential of making us a third-world debtor, flash-in-the-pan, has-been nation.

I’m torn between admiration of well said words courtesy of a life well lived and absolute horror that this interview came from Vice Magazine.

I can’t believe so many of you hate Garrison Keillor. The man is the voice of my childhood. One syllable is enough to make my serotonin levels jump. I know he’s hispter bait and all that… but the man is a god, a legend. I’d have his baby.

You just made my day little baby. I want to know you in 20 years.
Better or worse than Rebecca Black? FF to 2:12 for the best part.
I know objectifying female politicians is bad and such- but day-um Hill, you’re looking goooood! And it appears she isn’t wearing makeup either. And people say Liberals are uggos? This is one gorgeous lady, inside and out.
