I had a whole section about civic pride.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I bumped into this tumblr [link] because of an entry rebuffing their logic in thinking a secondary school student's 2 sample experiment about watering a plant with microwaved water vs. purified water proved things like microwaving messes up DNA, etc [link] . So I went to see the rest of their entries. There is not much bogus science in it--moreso it's many arguments about how voting is condoning the evils of government, etc.

But what I don't understand--what is the alternative? If this system is the wrong system, isn't the logical thing to do to change the system? I don't see those entries on their tumblr. I'm totally confused...

NOT REALLY.

Did Aaron Sorkin write tonight's Scandal? Lots of walking and talking and fast dialogue.

Does anyone know anything about Shakalewa that can't be gained in watching the first 15 videos of the google search, or by reading the FB or twitter feed? For all that, they remain opaque.

Which I can make quick work of.

Since I'm rarely around for thread ends or beginnings anymore.

I am trying not to get peeved by reading relatives' facebook where they are freaking out over how ungodly our country will become now with the re-election.

And I don't get it. It's like they've created a "All liberals are bad" filter, with huge exceptions. Like for my heathen children. Or their own mother who is a democrat serving in local office.

It's the weirdest thing. I must have the same blindspot. But I want to yell, "I can see you and what you are saying, you know."
