Mississippi Could Soon Jail Women for Stillbirths, Miscarriages
The state’s manslaughter laws weren’t supposed to apply to women who lose pregnancies. Prosecutors don’t seem to care.
The Republican nominee for lieutenant governor of Virginia thinks gays are “ikky.” And, like, a zillion other crazy things.
George Takei responds to “traditional” marriage fans.
I love this man, and I’m having a fun time imagining Sulu saying these things
I’m struck by how most of these people can barely string a coherent sentence together. That’s not helpful when you want to convince others that you know what you’re talking about. Why do people harp on grammar and spelling so much? Because your language is your first and often only means of communicating your ideas to others. If you can’t communicate clearly, at the basic levels of educated adults with the standards used throughout the world for anyone anywhere who speaks English, no one is going to give a shit what you think. If you don’t care enough about your thoughts and beliefs to make them understandable, no one else is going to, either… except other people just as blase’ and ignorant as you.
(meant for native English speakers; I know and appreciate that ESL people are doing their best with an annoying and fussy language.)
Seriously want to boot the first one in the ass, though. Because you can’t “see yourself” doing something, NO ONE should be allowed to do it, ever? You’re not even saying you think it’s bad or dangerous, just that it seems gross to you, so no one should ever be allowed to marry a same-sex partner just so you never have to think about it again. I hope your 100% super-straight hetero-only sex life is one hugely disappointing, unsatisfying experience after another. And it probably will be, with how easily you’re grossed out.
The wanderin’ mind, man.
I’ve been going through the Hark! A Vagrant archive again, and came upon the comic of Stompin’ Tom Connors. I figured since I didn’t remember ever hearing his music before, I’d look it up on youtube. I found a playlist of about 140 songs. Five songs in, I’m convinced he would be Pinkie Pie’s favorite singer ever.
I think that means I consider his music awesome so far. And I need to go to bed.
Their minds are perverted, they’re frankly very sick people psychologically, mentally and emotionally and they see everything through the lens of homosexuality. When they talk about love they’re not talking about love, they’re talking about homosexual sex.
E.W. Jackson, the Republican nominee for Lieutenant Governor in Virginia, on homosexuality. Jackson also believes that Planned Parenthood is worse than the KKK, and has called Obama “an evil presence” who might be a secret Muslim-Atheist (no, it’s not possible to be both; “I don’t know how this combination works,” he admits). Some on the right think he’ll doom the GOP’s odds in the state; some on the left feel the opposite. source (via shortformblog)
Ken Cuccinelli, the Republican party’s nominee for governor, once cited Martin Luther King Jr. as justification for his argument that sexual relations between two people of the same gender should be illegal. E.W. Jackson, the party’s nominee for lieutenant governor, believes that gays are “degenerate” and “spiritually darkened” and will eventually destroy America. Mark Obenshain, the party’s nominee for attorney general, recently attempted to require women to contact the police within 24 hours of a miscarriage.
Tumblr’s new ad sales pitch deck: “Brands finally are front and center.”
Your take, people of Tumblr?
HEY, YAHOO:
These ads will never make a dime off of me because I don’t give a rip about modern movies, TV, actors, or music, and I end up resenting companies that think I’m too stupid to notice an ad designed to “fit in” to the normal content, no matter the site. I have never seen an internet ad that made me want a product or service, but I’ve seen a ton that fill me with rage when they cross my line of sight for the thousandth time in a week. I mute TV commercials. All of my teeshirts are blank. I am no one’s free billboard, and I abhor the ruthless overreach of corporatism in the USA.
So, if you want money from me, here’s the only way you’re getting it: a subscription fee to OPT OUT of ads completely. On my dashboard, on my tumblrs (as I have secondary blogs attached to my main account.) No ads. Anywhere. deviantART and Livejournal make such an opt-out available for $25-$30 for the whole year. I’m cool with that, I’d do it for tumblr, and I don’t even need any special “premium” functions nor perks to go with a subscription. Just a 100% ad-free “experience”.
Tumblr is one of the few places—maybe the only place that isn’t run by an individual person—where I can get away from the modern world trying to sell me something, every waking moment of every stinkin’ day.
If you want money, I understand that; you’re a business and you’re keeping tumblr alive. BUT, you will never get it from me through ads. I will only find a way to block them. However, you can get it from me directly through making those ads go away and STAY away.
Please make sure such an opt-out is possible, and I’ll be glad to stay right where I am for years to come, and even pay for the privilege.
Thank you.
PS: Coke seems to have bought into the media misconception that tumblr is 99% hipsters. Please correct them before they make a collective total fool of themselves.
