Why in liberal circles is there this pressure to be so nonchalant about abortion - like it's akin to getting a haircut? It's like you can't be pro-choice and still recognize that it is a deeply serious & difficult decision. Pro-choice, not easy choice.
If you are not willing to fight, suffer, and die for your beliefs, then you don't have beliefs. You have preferences.
"...#Santorum blamed same-sex marriage for plummeting rates of marriage." WTF? How does allowing more people 2 marry cause less marriage?
RT @onecondoms Iowa voters helped bring #Santorum to the stage....did you know if elected he wants to "invalidate" #gay marriages? t.co/JlcOIqpY

Seriously though. People rising up is a good thing. People in "positions" should not be respected until they do something respectable. #ows
I love how pissed off & aggressive people are getting towards the government & corporations. Put all that cynicism & snark to good use! :)

If you can't destroy a corrupt system, learn enough about it to keep it from destroying you.
I'd say "chasing windmills" is still more fulfilling than sitting on your ass staring at them from afar. Afterall, who knows which one will actually be a dragon...
I believe there should be a "People's Veto." So if our government tries to fuck us, we can metaphorically kick them in the balls. Representative democracy is at best, outdated. At worst, flawed. People need to be directly involved in their governments. Indefinite detention? *kick in the balls* SOPA? *kick in the balls* Giving Trillions to Billionaires? *kick in the balls* #PeoplesVeto #ows
The "Indefinite Detention" bill has dire & dark consequences. Now YOU can be declared an enemy & held forever w/o trial. THAT is un-American. Fox News calls the #ows "domestic terrorists" & Senate passed a "indefinite detention" bill. Need me to draw a map to where we go next?
Everytime I see those black/blue line stickers on cars I think "Yay, kink pride! ... no wait... Just someone brown-nosing the police. :(" Those black/blue stickers are meant to garner mercy from police by showing support, right? If I were a cop, I'd see "flattering d-bag."
Excited to set up a new media 'puter with Kubuntu 11.10. Upon installation (and logging in) screen went black and all I could see was the cursor. Found a great solution. Hit Clt+Alt+F1 to go into console, edit ~/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc and change [Composting] Enabled=true to [Composting] Enabled=false. This worked for me. More Info.
Though, surely our troubles in America are dwarfed by those in many other countries, what is being sought by these people is echoed by all humanity. SupportYemen - BREAK THE SILENCE t.co/K2dyLvC
