What a piece of crap

Sarah Palin is just a narcissistic piece of shit. She was elected to do a job and now that it isn’t fun or it’s getting in the way of her getting more fame/power, she’s perfectly willing to ditch the people of Alaska like the popular girl who just found out that the captain of the football team likes her. Time to ditch that old flame.  LEt’s just hope this is the political suicide it looks like.

Napster 2.0?

The owners of the Pirate Bay have posted today to confirm that they are indeed in the process of being bought out.  I hope the new owners can do something good with the beleaguered and much-loved Bit Torrent tracker site.  But I just have a suspicion that this will turn into Napster 2.0.  Here’s more info:
Listed company buys The Pirate Bay for 60 MSEK
Pirate Bay to sell to private company, go legit (?) (!)

Just because I really like Midnight Oil

Midnight Oil was my favorite band of all time.  I still am unable to learn any of their songs on the ukulele because they’re so damn intricate.  Anyway, this is my favorite Oils video.  It’s a little disturbing, but it actually has a kind of sweet ending.  Would that globalization and corpratization end in a parallel fashion.

Just finished my chest piece and got it all cleaned up. Turned out pretty good. I may go back and add a little more shading after this heals, but overall I’m pretty pleased. The surgical tape holding it on hurt much more than the tattoo.

As if the original weren’t sickening enough…

The most horrible part is that, according to the bible, these people are dead on. That’s one of the ever-growing list of reasons why I don’t believe in the bible.

Jenny McCarthy Body Count

Jenny McCarthy Body Count
Yes, the vapid little goofball that all the jocks used to jerk off to has now graduated to instilling fear of legitimate medicine and contempt for those with autism.  This site tracks the morbidity and mortality associated with failure to vaccinate children.  McCarthy believes that not only is autism something that can be cured like a disease, but that she alone holds the keys to do so.  She also, to the contrary of every scrap of evidence, believes that vaccines cause autism.  I urge you to read over this site as well as StopJenny.com for more information about this monster.  Pass it along.  Show people what she is.

I do believe sadly it’s going to take some diseases coming back to realize that we need to change and develop vaccines that are safe. If the vaccine companies are not listening to us, it’s their fucking fault that the diseases are coming back. They’re making a product that’s shit. If you give us a safe vaccine, we’ll use it. It shouldn’t be polio versus autism.

Kevin Smith protests Dogma

This just proves that these people didn’t even know what they were protesting.

Clinging to guns and religion

Let me be clear, I don’t favor taking away either the guns or religion of law-abiding citizens.  However, I would sincerely like to see everybody in the world give up both.  This is just a pathetic stunt.

“We are wanting to send a message that there are legal, civil, intelligent and law-abiding citizens who also own guns,” Pagano said in greeting the audience, which included people who do not belong to his church.


Intelligent?  Too late, they’re in church.

Another one bites the dust…

Yesterday, we were treated to the sight of yet another Republican admitting his personal disgrace on national television.  The latest in a long string of Republicans to be shown for the hypocrites they are, Mark Sanford also embodies the sort of Family Values shitgobbler that has nearly wreaked our country.

I won’t bother anybody with the list.  And to be sure, there are a few Democrats in there, too.  Spitzer being one of the most notorious.  However, the Dems don’t build their entire rational for election upon the fact that they are “good”, “god-fearing”, “family” men.  If a Democrat gets elected, it’s because s/he has some kind of qualification that appealed to voters, or else their opponent was too much of a villain to allow his or her election.  Which is strong condemnation to be sure.  The kind of assholes that Americans regularly elect make it obvious that the villany bar is set far over most heads.

Getting back to my fucking point (I swear I have one), however…

I am mearly pointing out that these Family Values schmucks have repeatedly not only shown to be complete hypocrites (hookers, drugs, and other toe-tapping good times), they have also shown that they don’t know how to do anything.  Sanford himself made his name by being among the first in a string of Asshole Republican governors to reject Federal stimulus money for the unemployed in their state.  Debate the merits of the stimulus some other way, don’t sacrifice the well-being of your citizens to your partisan desire to say, “NO!” to the big bad Obama.  Go around to all the talk shows and argue it out all you want.  Make stumps speeches.  Whatever.  But at the end of the day, if money exists to help the people of your state, YOU FUCKING TAKE THE MONEY, ASSHOLE! And not for nothing, but if you’re leaving the state, or LEAVING THE FUCKING COUNTRY, you tell somebody where you can be reached.  I don’t care where you’re going to get your weenie moistened, you have fucking responsibilities as the chief executive of your state.

If people would stop electing these bozos purely on childish criteria like “Family Values” or religion or the fact that you’d like to have a beer with him, then maybe our country could make some progress.  But invariably, these types seem to end up in bed with somebody who isn’t their wife.  Whether that’s a man, woman, or corporation, is really the only thing left for us to speculate upon when the story starts to come out.

At least he wasn’t cornholing Chevrolet.
