We had our Christmoween celebration at Atomic Age on Saturday night! We gave candy and toys to strangers and hardly ate any of their brains at all. Honest. La la.
There are also pictures of our costumes. The second front in the War On Christmas is officially opened! It would be the best thing ever if we could get Bill O'Reilly to notice and thus rant incoherently about this.
Also, Chris Dodd is my favorite U.S. senator right now. In case you are unaware (and assuming you're in the U.S., since this doesn't zactly apply to everyone else), a while back almost all of the telecomm companies took your Fourth Amendment right, tore it into little bitty pieces, and then set the pieces on fire. And they're about to get off completely and utterly free for, y'know, secretly spying on us all. And the only person whois bothering to can save us? Senator Dodd. Plus everyone who's going to help him stretch out his filibuster. It's fucking shameful that that's such a small group.
I'm generally kind of vaguely disgusted by both Clinton and Obama, although I know either of them will be a better president than any of the Republican candidates. But I'm kind of extra-disgusted now. It's so very easy to say that you're against this bill, and it's so very easy to say that you're a super awesome leader, but as of last time I checked? Neither of 'em was liftin' a finger. Way to live the hypocrisy.
Okay! That's enough politics for now I think. Unless any randomly-blog-trolling arch-conservatives want to reply to tell me what a bad person I am. Their thoughtful, well-supported arguments will surely sway me to their point of view!
DISCLAIMER: I am not saying you're a bad person if you're a conservative. I am not saying you're a bad person if you don't get why this telecomm thing is so important. I am not saying you're a bad person if you honestly don't care about the whole being-spied-on thing, although I would wonder how that reaction might change if it were the Second Amendment on the chopping block here. I am not saying you're a bad person if you don't think just like me. But if you want to insult me for not thinking just like you, then go ahead, 'cause I could use the laugh.
