To my wonderful mama.
Mom, I’d like to take this moment to say that I love you completely and unconditionally.
You’ve accepted and encouraged the peculiarities in my personality and my individuality instead of trying to mold me into a carbon copy, even though I’ve taken a philosophical path that is completely different from yours. Because of you there are seven kids living happy lives who may have...

Uh oh, austerity has fucked up the UK Economy even...
Not only did austerity give them a double-dip recession, record unemployment, and record inflation… but apparently it’s even worse than they estimated.
Thank you, radical conservatives. Tell me more about how cutting spending and not increasing revenue is going to fix the mess you created?

And he’s so kind about it, I don’t have the heart to correct him.

rynthetyn:
…but I’m rather frustrated at the outcome of the North Carolina Amendment One vote. It’s always lovely to see that 61% of the voters in a state think you’re such a threat to civilization that they have to enshrine your inequality in their state constitution. I just love being reminded that I’m a second class citizen and that my rights are subject to the whims of a bunch of bigots...

That probably won’t happen my friend. It’s hard to think logically when you’re neck deep in an ocean of hypocrisy.

So just as virtually every “domestic Terror plot” is one conceived, directed, funded and controlled by the FBI, this new Al Qaeda plot from Yemen was directed by some combination of the CIA and its Saudi partners. So this wasn’t merely a failed, nascent plot which is causing this fear-mongering media orgy: it was one controlled at all times by the U.S. and Saudi Governments.

girlvswhale:
And then all my frozen yogurt melted while she told me about the time she went to California and saw a dolphin and then she said, “Flying takes you places you get to do new things. It is so fun!”
I can’t remember a time when flying didn’t feel like I was detaching pieces of my heart in different cities.
I miss being a kid. I miss the infinite possibilities that I thought the world...

The Real Job Creators: Everyday Americans, Not the...
abaldwin360:
Consumers, not the wealthy, are the key to an economic rebound, and GOP austerity is shackling them.
Republicans have made it official: “The wealthy” must be called “the job creators” in any debate about tax policy. Democrats are playing their own word games: Centrists insist the 2012 campaign shouldn’t focus on “income inequality,” or whether the worst concentration of riches...

You are morally superior to your God.
ivegotliestotellyourchildren:
Alright, hypothetical question. I know most of the people who might read this don’t have children, but let’s just pretend for a moment that you do. You’ve watched your son or daughter conquer life’s battles as they have grown up. You’ve helped them along the way as they made you indescribably proud with their achievements and who they have become as a person.
Now...
