Apr. 10th, 2015 06:41 pmRT @iglvzx But there's no middle ground. You're either for a hate mob (GG) or you're not. To be neutral, you have to remain uneducated. #StopGamerGate
RT @iglvzx Neutrality isn't: "Oh, well, if we just listened to GG, their doxing, harassment, death & rape threats might be justified!" #StopGamerGate
#ManOfSteel teaches me how everyone but me feels about the STAR WARS prequels.
damn that felt like gas not fluid
RT @LOLGOP I get it. Republicans support universal background checks for wedding catering but not for guns.
Of course the next horrible thing will be that the #WalterScott shooter will get the support #MikeBrown's shooter got.
Listening to contemporary music radio about three weeks now. Lotta this stuff has a strong unacknowledged influence from disco.
Watching Rand Paul's announcement on @TheDailyShow. Has he got sunglasses tanlines?
RT @richardhine If there was another country in the world where cops killed people at rate they do in America, State Dept. would advise you not to go there
I choose to believe I still average a cartoon a day and days like the last two fuel that belief.
Threw out the deep freezer contents I was never gonna eat and turned it off, and this month's power bill is about halved.
