Nice comic

Makes a point idiot god-wallopers don't seem to understand.

vatican absolves John Lennon

42 years after John Lennon said the Beatles were more popular than jebus, the vatican has said "EH, it's cool."
Fuckin' weak kneed jackoffs. Did he or did he not say it? If you god-fellaters had any spine, you'd keep the guy in hell (in your crazy heads anyways) and who gives a shit about his music. But you don't!

have you ever seen a fist this big?

I'm watching Kung Fu Hustle on spike right now, probably one of my favorite martial arts movies ever. Stephen Chow makes movies that aren't just about fighting, but the fighting is so fuckin good and theatrical. Even dubbed, the movies (I'm including Shaolin Soccer) are just excellent. I wish I could watch it in Chinese, but I'm sure there'd be some cultural meaning lost...Still, I love these movies, they're wonderful fables. I hold them in the same esteem as The Princess Bride and Princess Mononoke (whoa, what's with the princesses?). Anyways, my disturbing Princess love aside, here's some sweet Kung Fu lovin':


Actually, on second thought I'll add some more stuff. Kung Fu Hustle is listed as under production on IMDB for 2010, which could be great. Also, since I listed those two princess movies as favorites I thought I'd throw down some clips there too.

Today is Transgender Rememberance Day

Take a minute to think about that.

Baptize the Mormons to Homos

This is just a fucking awesome idea, except I'd say we apply it to Catholics as well. Frankly, it means fuck-all to me either way, I am relatively positive that no one's dead-ass corpse has given a fuck about someone sprinkling water on it and incanting ever in the history of mankind because, er, it's a dead fucking lump of skin and shit.
But still and all, it would be awesome to find more ways to piss off the Hate Church.

Joy Division
Love Will Tear Us Apart
Substance
Original video:


When the routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
But emotions wont grow
And were changing our ways,
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed,
Our respect run so dry?
Yet theres still this appeal
That weve kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again

Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings expose?
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just cant function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again

Prop H8: KoC

With the backlash that's been justifiably popping up on the LDS (including my own family, a couple of which do not speak to me anymore, and whom I will not miss), one group that's getting off rather lightly is the Catholic Church. The world's largest landowner and it's surrogates poured money into the lie-filled Yes on 8 campaign, the utter shame of our state. Here in Escondido, right on Valley Parkway, we have a rotten cunt-hair of the great Whore of Babylon sitting smug across from a Carrows, the Knights of Columbus.

Knights of Columbus, Council 4953

Here's their contact page.
"Dude!" you may be saying "They're just stinky old dudes who pray and help out in parades!" Well, maybe the ones here do. But the national chapter kicked in $1.425 Million for "Yes on H8". Not quite the level of the fucking evil mormon church, but still relatively outrageous. I'm not sure what to do. I may just hang out there this weekend with a "FUCK YOU, KNIGHTS OF FUCKTARDS" sign. It's all up in the air, eh?
Also, on the Californians Against Hate site, there's a list of all donors. I've gone through and found at least a couple locals. I'm thinking they don't ever deserve a penny of my business.
Here's one:

These are all public records. I'd urge anyone reading this who believe in human rights, human dignity, and just plain love to not frequent their businesses, and let them know why, within the boundaries of the law. The Mormons claimed before anything happened that Prop 8 would result in people attacking them, but they made it out to be UNJUSTIFIED, when in fact it not only justified but a fair exercise of a citizen's rights. The side of free speech (and spending or not spending your money has been established as "speech", however insane that is) no one likes to talk about is this: You are in a nation of people who are free to CALL YOU OUT ON YOUR BULLSHIT. The Mormon Church's members and leadership fucking POURED money into this campaign. They really, really pissed a LOT of people off. They will lose. Their hate and ignorance and psycho mythological bullshit will lose.

Drivin home

all right, once again

some "American Family Association" dude said this:

"It's a stupid ad," he said. "How do we define 'good' if we don't believe in God? God in his word, the Bible, tells us what's good and bad and right and wrong. If we are each ourselves defining what's good, it's going to be a crazy world."

All right, in regard to the whole concept of "if you don't believe in gawd you can't be good", once and for all, let's call bullshit on that. Christians, you have to call bullshit on that too. You're good because it's right, and it makes you better, not because you're afraid of a deity.
Additionally, our laws aren't based on the bible. Are countries with a long history of law, but zero history of biblical influence (other than being killed quite often by bible wielders), suddenly to be called christian cuz they outlaw fucking murder? Here's a decent article on the subject.
Ultimately, tho, the clown in the above quote claims that gawd tells us what's "...good and bad, right and wrong..." I'd argue with that on a lot of fronts. sure, there's some universal good and bad in the bible...as noted, no murdering, no stealing. but there's a lot of kill your enemies in there, and sell your children into slavery, and kill your son if he badmouths you. it's caravan law, basically, and it's a load of bollocks for the most part. we don't live travelling with a fuckin' herd of goats.
I'm getting good and fed up with the activist religious horning in on the secular world. If you want to change something to a fucked-up, bigoted reflection of your stupid fucking book, do it in prayers, okay? pray your idiot heads off, gawd's the only one who can change things, right? so pray pray pray! get busy! why are you reading this! you should be praying! somewhere there's a young gay kid who doesn't feel like a pile of shit that the world hates! get to work, you fuckers!

wow

Okay, this is must-viewing for anyone with a heart.


So: are you for, or against, love?

Dishonor Roll

Prop 8 passed with millions of dollars in out-of-state money coming in, much of it from the Mormon church. I haven't been able to find specific items pointing to politicking in church, but if anyone has some, I'd love to post it. You can do it anonymously and everything. I'd LOVE to get something that we can use to start the ball rolling on removing ANY politically active church's tax-exempt status. As an institution, churches can be as political as they want, but they forfeit tax-exemption. That's the fuckin' bargain.
The Dishonor Roll from Californians Against Hate is a great list of all the donors to Prop H8. I urge you to avoid the people on this list...if they cannot recognize other human beings as such, there is no reason to patronize their businesses or support their causes or concerns. It's not only Mormons either, there's extremists like Ahmanson and Prince on there as well.
The fact that Mormon's participated so vocally in organized bigotry hurts especially bad for me, since my own family has a lot of LDS in it, and I actually studied at a Mormon seminary for two years of before-school mornings. I've had numerous exchanges already, and I still don't understand how they came to this conclusion. Especially given the LDS's own experiences with bigotry and violence, it's hard to understand how they can support bigotry on others. It honestly makes me sick to my stomach.
I've heard a few pro-8 people say that people just don't understand their side of things. I can honestly say I don't. I've posted before about it, and I just don't get it.

Shut up everyone

I can't believe prop 8 passed

O noez...fuk u xtian jrks!!!!!uno!!!!!!

Good Morning

Maya Angelou said this during Bill Clinton's inauguration:

Here on the pulse of this new day
You may have the grace to look up and out
And into your sister's eyes, into
Your brother's face, your country
And say simply
Very simply
With hope
Good morning.

It's appropriate today as well. We as a nation have had something really amazing happen, but as Obama himself said last night, this is not a goal. It's a starting point. It proves the sayings right, but it doesn't change anything yet. There's hard work to be done. The bigotry and hatred of Proposition 8 in my home state has to be overturned. It cannot stand, if we are to pretend we live in a just world. The churches that actively campaigned for that initiative must be held accountable, and their tax-exempt status has to be examined. If you wish to be politically active, you cannot be tax-exempt. That is the deal. We MUST campaign harder in the areas that went 70%+ for Yes on 8. And we MUST get the message out to areas long taken for granted.
Barack Obama, the 44th President, is an astounding thing to say. But it's not the end of the road, but the beginning of a long, broken, pot-hole marred road. Hopefully at the end of it we find the "more perfect union"...and beyond that a new road.

Vote or something

I love this image from futurama.

obama takes ohio

that should give him the white house.
the HALF-WHITE HOUSE NOW. Ha! Living in the future fucking rules!

Done

We'll see what happens.
