manifest exodus: a remarkable fiction
hahaha i just realized that America is steadily becoming a place that most of its upstanding/affluent/innovative people will want to leave!
i mean it’s already started, the rich are familiar with at least traveling abroad. many super-rich have already left. as america turns for the worse, the rich will begin to leave for more pleasant, welcoming outside nations. that expatriation will begin...

RE: It's The Inequality, Stupid
I had a lot of discussion on my Facebook post of the same American inequality infographics I posted earlier today. One point that was hotly contested: American inequality is partly due to the fact that people are not “equally capable.” As in, some people are simply more capable of making tons of money than others. After some accusations of irrelevance and derailing and ignorance...

Glenn Beck, Libya, and Barack Obama
politicalprof:
As I did during the Egyptian revolution, I am currently watching Glenn Beck’s take on the Libyan revolution. He has a remarkable imagination.
Apparently, Barack Obama wants Islamic radicalism to triumph globally. Beck’s logic is fairly hard to follow—it’s not really logical, after all—but as best as I can figure out, Beck believes that Obama has failed to support real democratic...

I’ve been reblogging disparate charts from this collection over the past few days and didn’t realize that they were all part of a set. Each individual chart is shocking in itself, but put them all together and it’s just scary. People voted for this.

please sell your fighting game shit. btw, I’m thinking of going back to BFBC2. In fact, I’m not even thinking of it; I am.

hauntedskull:
how will cutting pbs do any good for anyone? won’t this just eliminate a lot of jobs?? i can hardly believe my fucking eyes when i see that the people elected to run the country are doing this.
it disseminates liberally biased information to the masses. to republicans the dissolution of PBS is less a fiscal move and more a political one. if it doesn’t push republican...
i hate to admit it but i’m incredibly close to selling every piece of fighting game periphery and paraphernalia i own because i really don’t want anything to do with it anymore
also i finally met my new roommate. aside from smoking out the apartment earlier today he’s a pretty chill dude. also about six facebook friends all decided to cram their feet into their mouths and make...

An Essay On Fandom And Foster Care: Our Lives Are...
humorlessfeminist:
Fandom and foster care are two subjects you probably never thought you’d see in the same essay. Save for one Buffy fan and one DC comics fan I happen to be following, I don’t see many people writing about the former, and I don’t believe I’ve ever seen the latter on my Tumblr dashboard at all. This essay will also be diving into the realm of feminism, racism, classism, ableism,...

biteofpythias:
A fantastic online game that raises awareness of the tough choices families have to make every day as you navigate a simulation of a month in the life of a newly unemployed parent.
my favorite one they throw at you mid-month as your money is dwindling: “Your child is invited to a birthday party. Do you a) send them with a present (10$), b) send them with no present, or c) keep them...
roommate update
old roommate (the one that tried making peanut butter angel food cake sandwiches) moved out last week…new guy moved in today. i already smell either incense or weed smoke, can’t tell. all i know is i have a headache and the entire apartment suddenly smells of sensimilla or something. welp,
it's on twitter, so it's public, so i can post it

courtesy of somebody on twitter, in rebuttal to me saying that people complaining about the fact that $40 is just “too expensive” for 3DS games:
“40$ is just way to expensive for most 3DS games. xbox/pc/ps3 games for 40$ offer better graphics, more details, etc. “full” games offer multiplayer, details graphics, multiple gamemodes… all at a larger scale. Why should a smaller...

Opinion: Why I Will No Longer Support Girl Scouts
This writer has some decent points (concerning flag-burning, mainly) but the rest of her oppositions are pretty stomach-turning. I really don’t want to trash her opinion, because it’s simply that — an opinion. That said,...

HERBERT
Yes, I know, I know…
[HERBERT rustles his papers around, sorting and stacking his short pile of printed articles in different ways. He keeps doing this for a while, meticulously straightening the edges against his desk and lining up the perfect pile before resorting them again. After sorting in relative silence, he audibly sighs before being content with how he’s currently sorted his...
The LeConte Knot
it’s just an intricate series of slip knots doubled one over the other a few times. it keeps shoelaces from being pulled and untied accidentally because of some miracle magic that i’ve not yet figured out because honestly it unties just like any slip knot
it’s also much more sophisticated-sounding than “that other knot i learned because i couldn’t tie my shoes until...

Blogs Are Dead, Version 9.0 →
soupsoup:
Someone at the Times isn’t doing their homework.
57% of Twitter is 26 to 44 yrs old
I’d bet the average Tumblr user is well under that age bracket.
Blog “purists” will tell you that Tumblr isn’t “real blogging” and define it as long form post that take time to put together, whereas Tumblr is mostly quick shortform posts with an emphasis on photo, video and links.

Man, this is just so funny and perfect to me and I want to analyze why but I know it would ruin it so I’m just gonna, like, sit here awestruck whispering a certain word over and over to myself with a big goofy smile on my big goofy face
