My dad was naturally left handed, but was forced to use his right hand in school and so became ambidextrous. My older brother is also left handed, though if the school tried to pull the old shit of him having to use his right hand (this was in the '80s) my dad would have pulled him out and had him home schooled, tutored, or sent to a private school so that he could use his left hand.Middle Ages?

Even longer than you think, they tried to pull that shit on me into the 80's. Like, I remember in 85 being about 10 and having a teacher try to get me to switch from left to right. Her excuse was that my handwriting was terrible. My mom complained to the administration (my dad actually agreed with the teacher) and was told that she is allowed to run her class as she sees fit.
I was never in a class my entire school career with more than one other left-handed person and we were always relegated to the back or a corner of the room so we wouldn't hit our elbows on other people.

Because if I was a teacher in the '80's (which I couldn't be because they never happened), I'd have told people to write with their mouthes, or dicks, or something. I am not constrained by this logic & practicality bullshit!

Herp derp, I was so busy arguing that I forgot to ask where Nickinack's signature comes from.It's a joke about the Buffy, the Vampire Slayer character Willow.
Umm, he actually didn't say the part about the lie detector. According to the article, he believes that it would be hard to prove an "honest rape," & so it should be taken at face value. Most likely, he simply didn't put enough thought in to come to the conclusion of a lie detector, but still, he didnt' say it.
What he DID say was that you shouldn't be eligible for an abortion if it's more than a few hours since you were impregnated.
Also, I had no idea a shot of estrogen could terminate a pregnancy.

Synthetic estrogen, coupled with synthetic progestin, is an ingredient in oral contraceptives. It cannot prevent pregnancy by itself.
Well I guess by "honest rape" he meant that the person has actually been raped compared to someone merely lying that she has been raped in order to get an abortion.Yeah, that is evident from the context. But the phrase itself is ridiculous.

You know what my problem is, honestly? It was a stupid fight to pick. He could have just said, "I believe there should be an exception for rape" & left it at that. That you have to have really been raped is sort of implied.

I thoroughly disagree with the race baiting seeds also using the tao. That doesn't make a lick of sense, in context. The tao is all about ACTUAL balance, not what Fox claims it is.
I think that's the joke...
They use race-baiting, yet claim to be fair and balanced. Hence, they are putting a 'truly balanced' sticker on to something obviously not fair and balanced.
I could be reading it wrong and being dumb, however.

The tao is all about ACTUAL balance, not what Fox claims it is.Small nitpick but the symbol is actually called the taijitu (太极图/太極圖), meaning something roughly like the 'image of ultimate power'. It was created by the neo-confucian philosopher Zhou Dunyi some 1500 years after Laozi described tao (dao in modern romanization and 道 in hanzi) in the terms that would form the approximate base of the nightmarish collocation of philosophies and religious practices which get lumped under the vague grouping of 'daoism'.

No, really. The cartoon is criticizing the program for telling gay kids "hey, don't kill yourself, life gets better, here's my story to prove it" because it doesn't apply to white upper class males. Which might be true, but it doesn't render the overall message ("no matter how bad it is right now, your life can always get better") false. Maybe I'm reading it wrong, if so tell me.
Other way around. According to Dan Savage, only white gay males get to be told it gets better. Hence 0 class awareness. He doesn't give a fuck about transpeople or black lesbians, or hispanic bisexuals.

Sorry, I edited it to say "anyone but" after I posted it - I'm not a total idiot. Isn't the content for the project mostly user generated though? Would he turn away a video from a black lesbian or a transperson or a Hispanic bisexual? If yes, he would actively suppress videos from those groups, the the cartoon is spot on and I withdraw my complaint. If no, he wouldn't turn away videos from those folks if they were submitted, then we get into the secondary class issue of these being primarily youtube videos made by people with access to webcams and quality internet connections.

The power dynamic is important and makes anti PoC racism a far more serious issue, but that just isn't what the word 'racism' means.

Dan Savage is treating anti-LGBT bullying as "Oh, well as soon as you get out of college you can just grow up, move to Seattle, take a trip to Paris, and adopt a baby! It's just so simple!" No, no it's not.

The thing I don't like about that poem is that it still keeps the focus on skin colour, maintaining the "us vs them" status quo. If the message was more along the lines of "you're coloured too" instead of "I'm less coloured than you", I'd be down with it, but as it stands, the undercurrents of hostility feel very counterproductive.

Same here. We are all people, people. Sure, some of us have it better than others for very stupid reasons. But as long as we keep on putting up divisions, we can never solve that.

When I born, I black.
When I grow up, I black.
When I go in sun, I black.
When I scared, I black.
When I sick, I black.
And when I die, I still black.
And you white people.

Dear political cartoonists: Not every object in the image needs to be labeled. This comic would have worked just as well with about half of the text.
But not necessarily as well. The text adds a lot of clutter.This one the labels are necessary but others not so much
But then, I suppose the artist may be attempting to reach some of those audiences that need everything explained to them. In that case, it only does work with the labels.

What Bradbury intended and what people get out of it are often different things. As it is, although Montag’s wife helps exemplify this “TV is evil” thing, the vast amount of attention paid to the Censorship issue tends to make it much clearer and more memorable. Hell, the “TV is Evil” aspect didn’t even feature much in Beatty’s “history lesson,” instead focusing on a bit of “Political Correctness Gone Mad.” If Bradbury truly intended Farenheit 451’s primary theme to be anti-television, he failed.
Never said they were the same. I'm only saying it wasn't intended to be about censorship. People read it that way. And even his own publisher spread the idea it was about censorship. I was just pointing out it wasn't according to the Voice of God.
See as most critics including sparknotes say censorshipNever said they were the same. I'm only saying it wasn't intended to be about censorship. People read it that way. And even his own publisher spread the idea it was about censorship. I was just pointing out it wasn't according to the Voice of God.
Well, I do not put a lot of stock into “Death of the Author,” but it does have a certain range of applicability. While the author’s interpretation of a work is usually “more correct” it does not invalidate the correctness of what other people get in it. But the fact that it is easier to get a different message than what was supposedly intended in this case may give Death of the Author just a bit more pull.
As near as I can tell the “It’s about television” comment was relatively recent, too. And memory is pretty damn fickle after half a century. It’s likely that an older, even grumpier Bradbury is looking at it through a distorted lens.Probably as that interpretation makes less sense with the internet becoming a giant fact checker

Fahrenheit 451: I'm not buying the "it's about television" intepretation, not least because said interpretation came about long after the "it's about censorship" one had been freely allowed to flourish, and after, apparently, Bradbury wrote an introduction agreeing with the idea. I can't help but feel that the newer interpretation is Bradbury wanting to have a rant about modern media and linking it to his book in order to get headlines. What's annoying is, Bradbury's a writer. He could write another fucking book that is about television, and have publishers bill it as the spiritual sequel to F451, but as far as I'm aware, this hasn't happened.I guess this is why the "it's not about censorship" claim is odd. I have an edition of 451 where in his introduction he writes about the horrors of censorship, the irony of his book being banned, how he emphasized censorship in his re-write for the stage version... He talks about censorship non-stop.

All I know is the only reason Bush hasn't been charged with shit is, well, you know, you can't hold an American President responsible for jack squat! Unless they're a black, Kenyan, Socialist Muslim, of course.Another reason is that the US still isn't big on the idea of international law and justice and hasn't joined the ICC.

451 is quite a dumb, derivative book. Not sure why popular.Not sure what's derivative about it, but I found it straight and to the point, and a good read for an afternoon. Not sure why...

The writing is dumb. The idea isn't all that. The characters are shallow and the females ones aren't even that. The conclusion is nothing. The plot doesn't happen. It's only a book in that a book is two covers with word-covered paper in the middle.
It's 1984 if Orwell was shit. '84 is the best of these dystopians, actually- it's significantly better than Brave New World, which is definitely okayish.

I've heard worse. I heard someone say aspartame is part of a government conspiracy to kill all the black people for population control. And somehow Michael Jackson's death was worked into it. I think it was something about him being killed so he didn't tell everyone about the conspiracy :o. Why would he know? I guess someone told him thinking he was one of us whiteys or something. The person who said this was an otherwise "normal" and sane person.

According to my dad, aspartame is just another plot by Big Pharma (which is run by the Bilderberg eugenicists) to give people cancer. Michael Jackson was killed by Big Pharma assassins to distract people from "what's really going on", but has little to do with aspartame.

He watches Alex Jones. I don't know how often though.

Watch out, you might be falling into the "Bill Cinton had an affair, why don't liberals go him like they do (Insert Most Recent Case Here)?" trap. The cartoon appears to be criticizing Obama for simultaneously railing against Super PACS while using one or similar fundraising methods himself (whether or not that's accurate? I don't know).

Well, hey, if you absolutely hated any minority races, you'd probably be gunning for policies that made it so you didn't have to treat them like people either.
Paul's obsession with the "free market" basically stems from the fact that white males dominate businesses and not wanting to let anyone he deems a "lesser" get to an equal position of power. Of course, there are the unfortunate few that believe it is really for the best, as well as those corrupt asses that just want more of the pie.

I've never heard the term "Glibertarian". Can you explain what it means? Or did you just misspell Libertarian.
Of all the ones in the post, socialist sounds the most sane. However the problem is that any "pure" system doesn't work anywhere but on paper. The best I've seen so far is a capitalist/socialist hybrid, which is what most first world countries are currently, despite most claiming they aren't.

I use the term Glibertarian to distinguish sub-human Randroids from people like Noam Chomsky or the followers of Proudhon or Bakunin. I may not agree with libertarianism any more, but they shouldn't have to share an ideology with that filth.

I've never understood why Proudhon is so popular with anarchists. What he proposes is simply anarcho-capitalism with everyone being a small business owner.
With equal distribution of wealth and little to no private property...Nor, private property would still exist. Everyone one would be petty-bourgeois.
So is it like syndicalism?No, syndicalists are 'traditional' anarchists except that they look to the working class as the revolutionary agent (I like to think most anarchists do, but some don't) and are willing to work with current unions and workers organisations.

I don't get what the joke is supposed to be. Not very funny.
Proudhon believed in the equal distribution of wealth, so no property rights in a capitalist sense. But you can have private property like, you know, family photos and stuff. The inequal distribution of wealth is, among other things, murder and theft and all the rest.

Funny, it seems like breaking no.10 is the whole point of capitalism.

Yep. And you know, this morning, I woke up to NPR Morning Edition with a brief story on all the fundies that insist Juesus and the Bible were anti-socialism and whatnot. Go figure.
Seeing that just reminds me of how the whole numbering at 10 thing is rather suspect. See, my school went with the version that had the “No other gods” and “No graven images” bit as one commandment and “Not covet your neighbor’s wife” and “Not covet your neighbor’s stuff” as separate commandments. It was years before I realized there was a different counting scheme going on with a lot of other folks.
Could also symbolize Rich-Poor relations too.Which, sadly, is almost the same thing. :/

Mr. Minister, tear down that statue!
* There are Jews. There are Christians. But there is not, and never has been, any such fucking thing as a "Judeo-Christian" and the word itself just makes me sick.
To be fair these people are too dumb to know that Arabic speakers call god allah even Christians and they are even less likely to know that many live happy lives* There are Jews. There are Christians. But there is not, and never has been, any such fucking thing as a "Judeo-Christian" and the word itself just makes me sick.
They're pretty much trying to defend the Abrahamic religions while not being hypocritical when they say, "fuck them-thar towel headed sand niggers, nuke 'em all" (I hear this shit every fucking day) in reference to Muslims. They're still hypocritical fuckwits even if most are to stupid to know it, what with all the "Allah is a moon god" shit. They don't even recognize that it's the same as they're god, which like almost everything else is probably stolen from someone else.

Let's not forget that there is a white entertainment channel.
It's called Fox News.
It's an antiquated term that, sadly, isn't going to go away any time soon.
The problem with what you suggest, though, is that it promotes race blindness... which is still very racist and white-leaning. The fact of the matter is, white people have 10 months out of the year, 95% of all books, and 99% of all video games dedicated to them. The reason this never gets played up is because it's taken for granted.
And that is precisely WHY there are books and tv channels devoted to black people. And gay people. And what have you.
True, but I don't think they should make their race or sexuality a major part of the story, unless it is specifically about civil rights. Stereotypes shouldn't be present. Plus it's not like people who aren't a part of the minority will enjoy it any less :-\.
I thought we were a melting pot, having other cultures and races assimilate into the collective.
Resistance is futile.
As I have to say every time race comes up, I'm not trying to come off as racist so please don't take it that way. For me equality means everyone is equal, which isn't what is happening now with regard to race and gender. The term "race" seems to imply a different species to me, so why it's still used is a mystery to me. We don't call a spotted dog and a one with a single color different races do we?

That's actually the only thing I didn't like about that comic.
QuoteI once knew a 7th grade girl who had two kids!
Was she in grade 7 due to being left back, or had she somehow managed to have two kids by the age of 12?
Well now that sounds like a totally reliable story, based on the kind of solid evidence we expect of those who make such bold assertions.
That was sarcasm.
She might have had twins.
Though I don't know if any 12/13-year old would be physically capable of carrying twins.

I will accept “They kill birds” as a valid argument against wind power, though.
I will accept “They kill birds” as a valid argument against wind power, though.
Still less damaging than oil spills or coal mine accidents. Even if a windmill breaks down it is less damage to nature/people than if a different type of power plant critically damaged.
Also some people don't like the way windmills look and say that it spoils the natural beauty of the landscape. Not as badly as smoke belching coalplant though.
All things considered I support nuclear, water, wind and solar power but only if the safety precautions (and a safe location) are well thought out.

Really, I'm a racist because I don't like Obama is valid? I don't understand politics?
Killing bin Laden, bringing an end to a decade long useless war, took out Gaddafi in another imperialist war and replaced him with the NTC, made up of Islamist fundies, pro-business/privatisation Western-educated businessmen or simply ex-Gaddafi people. These are all valid points to support Obama?
Also, Obama created the Super-Congress, so much for democracy.
Basically the Supercongress was when 3 law makers from each party got to decide most of the budgetReally, I'm a racist because I don't like Obama is valid? I don't understand politics?
Oops, missed those.Killing bin Laden, bringing an end to a decade long useless war, took out Gaddafi in another imperialist war and replaced him with the NTC, made up of Islamist fundies, pro-business/privatisation Western-educated businessmen or simply ex-Gaddafi people. These are all valid points to support Obama?
The first two are valid reasons. What would be the alternative? Letting bin Laden go is stupid, and the opposite of ending a useless war is letting it continue. The other candidates were all for staying in Iraq and Afghanistan indefinitely and starting a new war with Iran. How is that not a valid reason to support him? The third is also valid because, unlike Iraq where we invaded a peaceful nation under false pretenses instead of going after the person we were there for in the first place, the people there actually rose up first and needed our help. And Gaddafi was killed by them, not us. We helped, but they actually needed our help, so it's OK.Also, Obama created the Super-Congress, so much for democracy.

The thing that gets me about nuclear is that the waste products it does produce can last too damn long. I just don’t feel it is responsible to push of responsibility for dealing with something onto generations so far removed that we aren’t even sure how to best communicate the importance of that responsibility (http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/green_room/2009/11/atomic_priesthoods_thorn_landscapes_and_munchian_pictograms.html).

While that's a good point, the other side of that is, to my understanding, the present inability of wind, solar, and hydroelectric power to handle the needs of the entire United States, much less the entire world. The technologies should be further developed, and there may come a day when it is feasible to use them to produce the majority of power, but right now they're not workable on the necessary scale while coal and nuclear are.
Untill we make improvements in the green energy nuclear power is a good short term solution. (Altough the waste certainly is a long term commitment.)

It was my understanding that even as photovoltaic cells are getting better, it still requires a shit ton of them to generate sufficient power for current needs. Which creates a whole lot of extra concerns regarding maintenance, cleaning, space & other placement concerns, etc.

I think the current solution is to use containers that have to be replaced every decade or so. that way people won't forget because there will always be containers reaching their "expiration date" and needing to be replaced. A good thing that comes from it is this creates jobs, though incredibly hazardous ones.

It's so perturbing... I think of any reason why it wouldn't show. Eh... if it's my problem only I'll just deal with it. Maybe fiddle around with my settings some, but like I said, there's no reason why the pics shouldn't show up.

"President Obama came out with approval of same-sex marriage. He said that over the years, he has been going through an evolution on the issue. That makes opponents on the far right doubly angry. They don't believe in gay marriage OR evolution." –Jimmy Kimmel

I know you know this, but I'll tell you what a transman friend said to me about a year ago
"You know, at first I was nervous to use the male's room. I knew if I used the female's room I would get weird looks or yelled at and felt if I used the male's room I would get beaten up, but that's not true. Everyone in the male's room won't even look at you, and would never speak to you because they're afraid of looking like a homo."
May be a bit backhanded, but you get the idea.

American companies threaten workers that if they do not accept benefit cuts, their jobs will go to Mexico. Mexicans are warned that if they do not accept cuts, their jobs will go to Honduras. Hondurans are intimidated that their jobs could go to Haiti. That is Haiti’s purpose. That is why living conditions in Haiti are not allowed to improve. This is essential to corporate profit, in the “free market system.”

The burqua one is an extremely good point: our view that the burqua (or any of the other associated dress) is oppressive to women is a cultural view, a subjective one. Many women do in fact choose to wear such clothing, because their culture is different to ours. Difficult to understand, I know.technically those are niqabs but point still stands. But also many think how women in western society dress is oppressive to women seeing as it sexualizes them.

The Old Testament says to execute gays. It has nothing to say about them marrying.
The OT was mistranslated...
The Old Testament Laws were considered paid for by Jesus' sacrifice. "You have heard ____, but I say ____"
It's a different ballgame once Jesus comes onto the field.
Since my entire Catholic education. In order to explain going from "crushing our enemies with faith" to "turning the other cheek," I was informed by my religious class instructors that Jesus was the "new Gospel" was what was important to follow, with the Ten Commandments and the faith of the prophets being what we could focus on.The Old Testament Laws were considered paid for by Jesus' sacrifice. "You have heard ____, but I say ____"

We could get some shit done if the GOP was level headed, and gave a shit for the country, but I won't hold my breath on that one.

What I can control is my response.

You guys are using a very strong word. 'Disgusting' is a very, very strong word. I really don't like that word when it comes to things like love and the like.
Besides, the caption did say offensive not if it squicks you or if you're not into it.
It's like saying I don't like to eat crab but someone else does. I don't find it my kind of thing, but it isn't offensive and I wouldn't try to ban crab eating.
Words are important.

What if I'm using it to also describe myself? I just get grossed out by the male anatomy, including my own. Two guys (or women) can do what they want, and I'll support it 100%, including getting married and adopting. I just want nothing to do with it myself.
Are they ever going to realize this attitude of "OMG U 4GOT SUM1!!!!!" is the kind of thing that keeps people from taking them seriously? This is a sensitive enough topic as it is, without people losing their shit because a well-intentioned message happened to miss a particular group. Hell, when it comes to all this gender stuff, I can barely keep track of all the fucking classifications people make up to identify themselves. It's why I typically try to avoid this topic on the forums; I simple don't know what the hell half the definitions even mean.
...
Sorry about the rant. The attitude of "OMG you don't agree with me 100%" that I get when it comes to sex/gender issues bugs the shit out of me, and makes it really hard to want to support these people/groups at all.

This is also the guy that got slapped in the face by a professional wrestler, sued the wrestling company for half a million dollars, won, and then and cries about "frivolous lawsuits, tort reform, and non-economic damage caps."
Yeah, he got his, screw everyone else.
I looked it up on Wikipedia, because I was all "dafuq?". That happened in 1984, and he purportedly regrets the lawsuit now. I don't think it's quite fair to take someone to task for changing their opinion in the course of a decade or two. Besides, that lawsuit was hardly frivolous. Those were the days where wrestlers were (supposedly) under orders to physically assault anyone who said that wrestling was less than 100% real. Any company whose policy involves physical assault deserves to be sued.

Needed to be seen, though in my opinion. Good pic, Shep.All studies on parents I've seen say that two parents are better than one. I have never seen one show any proof that the gender or sexual orientation mattered. Kids just work better with more parents since they get more attention. No disrespect to single parents, intended. That's hard work.

No Tea Party, McCain gets the racist vote and the rich dude vote, Obama still wins because the Republican Party at the time was at an all-time-low and no one wanted a repeat of Bush's eight years.

Okay so, I threw this together today, after getting the idea stuck in my tiny little brain. If it sucks, I'll get rid of it. If it's good... maybe I can get it to start spreading :D

Minor Nitpick: There is a bunch of unnecessary empty space between the embryo and the lines of text under it. It would look a bit better if you either:
A) Raised the bottom text and shorten the whole image.
Or
B) Lowered the embryo so that it's spaced equally between the top and bottom.

If we could divert the funding to useful projects I'd be all for a 'liberation' of mars. Not like they can actually get anyone there.

Maybe that will convince the government to start investing in the sciences and NASA again.With the life discovered on Mars, is there any possibility of oil there?
I thought NASA got hosed on that one, but if there were significant quantities it could be possible. I don't know about any decay timelines involved in fossil fuels though.

Yes, but it resonates with the same douchefucks who think that an especially cold winter refutes the science of climate change.

That argument is not going to defuse any Christian arguments. I've brought it up before and the response was always, "Those other forms of marriage existed only after the Fall, and while God allowed them, they were not ideal and always had negative effects. The only form of marriage God intended was ONE MAN ONE WOMAN because of Adam and Eve."

Depends on what you mean by best. From my experience it seems to be cartoons that the majority of the board agree with.

True also I think the whole term global warming is bull anyways where climate change fits better cause you see people say it's cold therefore it's not real when in reality warmer arctic temps can cause colder wintersAlso, One summer is not evidence of a climate trend that occurs over the course of hundreds to thousands of years
True. One record season is a blip on the charts. But when it's one in a long string (http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/) of record breaking temps on a record stretching back for over a hundred years then it's time to start thinking "You know, there might be some merit to this whole Global Warming idea..."

If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say somewhere around the Crusades. Least, it'd make sense to me as a propaganda tool. The last thing you want your soldiers thinking is that their primary religious figure was of the culture you're actively trying to destroy.

Obama laid one shovel-sized palm upon the quaking creature’s forehead and, with infinite compassion on his face, brought his fingers together. “Civic responsibility begins with personal responsibility,” he explained, with brains still dripping from his clenched fist.
