So apparently I can get on livejournal, and I can update my profile, and I can post an entry. But I can't look at my friends' list. That gets blocked as "social networking." I guess it makes sense in that the rest of it kinda isn't, but still...make up your mind totalitarian autobot! Either Livejournal's hunky dory or it ain't ( Read more... )

I don't think I've ever been more sickened by my side in politics than when I opened up today's paper and discovered that Obama's hinting at trying to "compromise" by getting rid of the public option for heath care.
