Oh goody, goody, there's another Teaparty rally in DC this weekend. At least they have been advised to stay off the green and yellow lines, which I guess means they won't be around my neighborhood. (there is also this handy map). Maybe it will at least be entertaining after the fact again. My favorite part about the last rally was the irony of ( Read more... )

Ok, so I know I'm a day late to the party at this point, but how great is it that Proposition 8 was found unconstitutional? So great. I mean, the fight isn't over, I know, but still, so great. And the decision really is a thing of beautyIn other news, I'm feeling pretty fannishly disconnected and have been for awhile, but rl stuff is going ( Read more... )

So Secret Copyright Treaty Leaks. That's one of the scariest things I've ever read. So glad it hasn't been disclosed until now due to National Security Concerns. WTF, Obama.

Bob McDonnell is Governor of Virginia. That's just great. One of the teams at pub trivia last night was using the name "Congratulations, McDonnell! Women, we hope you ( Read more... )

So instead of getting enough real, very necessary work done tonight (Oh GOD I'm going to fail grad school), I've spent a good part of the evening watching politisex implode. Everybody's seen the tagging drama by now I imagine. And probably also about the Nazi picspam. Picspam. Picspam. I feel dirty even knowing about this. Here's kita's post on the ( Read more... )

Wrt my last entry, I think I have found most of the places where there is currently political RPF/is going to be political RPF in the future. Well done, fandom! I knew I could count on you.

By the same token, does anybody know where I can find the good fake news RPF? Because I found the comms, but I don't like having to wade through everything ( Read more... )

Not a fan of the new profile page, but whatever, I guess. I won't have to spend that much time looking at it.
