sabotabby: raccoon anarchy symbol (march)


I wish I were in New York.

Whenever I think about capitalist economics—really think about it, at its most basic—it blows me away. To think that we (collective we, not this particular corner of the internet) can't possibly conceive of an alternative. To think that angry mobs with torches and pitchforks are the exception rather than the rule. If one thinks about wealth distribution and is not immediately enraged (and I say this as a person who benefits far more than I suffer from the system), one isn't thinking hard enough.

Things Harper Does to Seem Human. Okay, now I understand why there is Tumblr. It's awesome how incredibly uncomfortable he looks in each of these photos. And really, how uncomfortable all of the children and animals are in these photos, almost as if they know they're a shutter-snap away from being devoured.

If you never want to sleep again, check out "Barely tolerating Bonhomme." I honestly can't identify which part of that photo is the most terrifying.

[livejournal.com profile] cyborg_kitty100 clearly hates me, because she sent this piece of musical genius in my direction. Shared pain is lessened while shared lulz are multiplied. It's the entire album of Ajay Lowery's I Will Not Be Swayed.

Never compromise. Not even in the face of misguided facial hair.

Randroid country music! That manages to rhyme "taxanity" with "a sound economy," except not really. You know you want all the catchy tunes about the Federal Reserve Act, so [livejournal.com profile] cyborg_kitty100 has generously agreed to keep it up for a few weeks.

Finally, [livejournal.com profile] human_loser tipped me off to the Creepy Panda Video, which I must also share.



Enjoy!

"The glue of the military ethos is what the Greeks called philia - friendship, comradeship or brotherly love... the source of the unit cohesion that most research has shown to be critical to battlefield success. The presence of open homosexuals in the close confines of ships or military units opens the possibility that eros - which unlike philia is sexual, and therefore individual and exclusive - will be unleashed into the environment, manifest(ing) itself as sexual competition, protectiveness and favoritism, all of which undermine the nonsexual bonding essential to unit cohesion, good order, discipline and morale."

- Wall Street Journal contributing editor Mackubin Thomas Owens

There are few, if any, paragraphs that have ever failed quite so spectacularly as the one above. Marvel at the fact that the author must have never so much as been in the same room as a history book in his entire stunted and pathetic life.

Just. Wow.
