Politics

  • And it seems the measure passed in Cali. All marriages since the approval by the supreme court have now been declared void. Damn it.

  • And the results seem to be...

    Obama won
    the marriage ban in Arizona will pass
    the gay adoption ban in Arkansas will pass
    the marriage ban in Florida will pass
    the marriage ban in Cali will probably fail, but absolutely no results have some in yet so this is purely based off guess

    Not quite the revolutionary day I was expecting. Could have been worse, I suppose. Justice was never won cheap; I'll keep the unexpected highlights of the weeks leading up as proof that the day will come. Thank you for those.

  • Well, Chem. Midterm today. The highest possible score I could get this time is an 81%. Of course, this is hoping I get all partial credit, etc. The hopes are higher than the Calc. this time, yet I expected a lower score than I got for Calc. Heh, that doesn't bear good if the reverse happens here....

    Ever have a sight that you found and then never bothered to save it? So then, years later, you wanna find it again but have no clue where to start but with Google? Thankfully, I actually found the site this time: http://www.becominghuman.org/. Haven't seen it since 8th grade, but so good. Well, for science fanatics like myself, I suppose.

    It's almost comical: I'm having a debate with someone over whether God exists right now. I still can't get over the fact he had the audacity to say that my belief was evil to begin with. I'm starting to see with the rise and acceptance of atheism (or simply minds of thought other than Christianity), we're starting to see an extremist sect form very similar to that amongst extremist Christians. I almost want to scream, "My progressive brother, don't fall to hypocrisy!"

  • Well, turns out there is LOLbama, if you hadn't heard. And while LOLcats constant destruction of English grammar and spelling slowly kills me everytime I guiltily enjoy one of their works and while LOLbama, in some cases, affronts all that is politically correct and what I believe in at times...well, Hell, you guys know me well enough to know there is a large distinction between what I truly think and then what I'm willing to say for a joke (which usually can be just about anything...). So, because I know it ought to get one laugh at least...

    (woah, I think they took out the double space for xanga...)







    That is just amazing on so many levels.



    I voice the creator of LOLbama's opinion, the McCain is old jokes are utterly stupid (since when is that qualification a person shouldn't be president??) but this is too perfect for words.


    The caption of the site was "The victory sex was probably so goddamn intense". Yes. Just yes all over.



    So wrong, but the irony is too beautiful.



    And the nerd in me alights for joy. Oh, I so have to show Bryan this one.

    I wish there were more Palin/McCain ones, but it is LOLbama. Oh well, the few there were are quite priceless.

    In other hightlights of today, I finally got my hands on a full version of Beethoven's 9th Symphony, along with Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers and Straight Outta Compton. The N. W. A. joint was as suprising as gangsta rap can be, but it is a milestone in rap and there are some decent ideas kicked around. Besides, no one else was touching really on the crime and problems of the urban areas, so I thank them for that. I have yet to listen to Wu-Tang but it is with much anticipation.

    Talked to my cousin today, which was loads of fun, as usual. Finally had found someone to talk over The Stranger with (they take away the double space (which is standard for online typing anyway) yet I can't use ctrl-i to italisize. Okay, that's Firefox's fault, but still annoys me). Didn't think I'd get that chance with anyone for at least a long while, so that was good. Other than that? Busy busy busy. Work Sat. and Sun. Two papers to do. Entry Screwdance on Sat. (oh dear...). Should be an...interesting weekend.

    Now, back to that paper I was "writing"...
