The #NFL is a joke. A multi billion dollar joke but a joke all the same. Ran as nonprofit, they pay no taxes on those billions of dollars. They control their own destiny allowing spousal batterers, drugs and dozens of other crimes to go unchallenged and even covering many of them up. It's an entire industry based on the knowledge that you'll pay hard earned dollars to buy a shirt replica of someone who can't spell "NFL" but can catch a ball. http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2015/01/the-nfl-wants-you-to-think-these-things-are-illegal/

The Republicans, specifically the libertarian wing of the party, have spent years convincing their base that the government is not to be trusted, that the government lies and everything the government does is a giant conspiracy to steal from you, kill you or take your liberties.  That's nearly 50% of the population who believe that an educational outreach program led by a government agency is inherently trying to screw you over because government.

Some great research and reference material in here. Originally shared by **** As it turns out, organizing the world’s information isn’t always profitable. Projects that preserve the past for the public good aren’t really a big profit center. Old Google knew that, but didn’t seem to care. The desire to preserve the past died along with 20% time, Google Labs, and the spirit of haphazard experimentation. Google may have dropped the ball on the past, but fortunately, someone was there to pick it up. https://medium.com/message/never-trust-a-corporation-to-do-a-librarys-job-f58db4673351

Do you know what's not fun? When you go to bed at 10:30 or so expecting to be asleep within a half hour (I have to read before I turn off the light) and the drunk neighbor comes over because she's lonely. Then she comes over again. And again and again. Now, before you ask: no, she is not attractive and no there's not enough alcohol in the world. I've mostly ignored it letting my roommate handle her but a few times my roommate called out, "Jason I need help. She won't leave." So, at 2:00, 2:30, 2:45, 3:30 and four o'clock, I've had to get up and go out to the front porch and tell this woman to leave. She does and then she's right back. Finally at 4:00 I called the police. They came and sent the woman home telling her it was 4am and too late/early for this behavior. It took about 20min after the police left for her to return and my roommate to step outside to have a cigarette . Now it's 5am and I have, collectively, about 20 minutes of sleep

Apparently there's a Richard Dawkins Religious Belief Scale. I'd never seen this scale before, but to be fair, I've never read Richard Dawkins' books. You see, I don't need someone else to explain to my why I'm an atheist - I already know. It's because I know there are no such things as gods. Per his scale, that would make me a Strong Atheist. Per my scale, that would make me a Gnostic Atheist. Stolen from someone on Google+ But, being who I am, I found fault with the Dawkins'   scale. So, I made my own. I'm going to call it The Jason Scale because, why not. I placed Fundamentalist with "Strong Theist" due to the single fact that anyone who considers themselves a strong believer in their god/s is probably also a strict adherent to the belief system set up by their religion. I added Gnostic, a word from ancient Greek meaning to know  as another position on the scale. gnostic "relating to knowledge," 1650s,

Family members say Bud and June Runion, both in their late 60s, left their Marietta home Thursday to go look at a car they found on Craigslist. The 1966 Mustang was advertised in McRae, Georgia, in Telfair County. The Runions' daughters say no one has heard from the couple since Thursday morning. Cellphone data showed the couple made it to McRae. Their last known location was in McRae at 5:30 p.m. Thursday. Their cellphones are now off and family members have not been able to ping the phones to find a location. The Runions' children filed a missing persons report Friday.

Just trolled some woman I went to high school with on Facebook. She asked for people to pray for her brother, he needs heart surgery. I said, Sure, I'll pray to Satan for your brother.   She became mad and told me to ignore her posts if I didn't have anything nice to say. Then she called me a child and intolerant of her beliefs. Naturally, I offered my own rebuttal. Then I noticed she'd deleted my comment on her post. So, I comment again that praying didn't solve anything. In fact, history is filled with prayer not solving anything, just ask the holocaust victims, sex slaves, and starving children across the globe. She became even more mad. Told me to stop commenting on her posts to which I replied, she needed to stop asking for my prayers, then. Needless to say, we didn't resolve anything.

You know, I didn't have any problems with The Punisher movie from 2004  other than John Travolta's character and the kid gloves they had Frank Castle wear. The follow-up, Punisher: War Zone , wasn't a bad movie in itself, but the gratuitous violence might have put it just a little over the top. As for movies about lapsed good-guys meting out punishment , Denzel Washington's  Man on Fire  was a much better Punisher movie than either actual Punisher movie. Hell, even The Equalizer was a much better movie than either of the Punisher films. Today, I was perusing some movie website about Marvel movies and someone mentioned a Dirty Laundry Punisher featurette. So, I was off to YouTube to see what it was all about. At a little less than 11 minutes, it has Thomas Jane reprising his role as Frank Castle and Ron Perleman as a wheelchair bound store owner. And it's pretty good. A little darker than the 2004 Punisher movie but not as dark as War Zone. Take a look. I'

Because there isn't enough meat already? Originally shared by Kate Savage Via Michael Swanson  At a remote research center on the Nebraska plains, scientists are using surgery and breeding techniques to re-engineer the farm animal to fit the needs of the 21st-century meat industry. The potential benefits are huge: animals that produce more offspring, yield more meat and cost less to raise. There are, however, some complications. Pigs are having many more piglets — up to 14, instead of the usual eight — but hundreds of those newborns, too frail or crowded to move, are being crushed each year when their mothers roll over. Cows, which normally bear one calf at a time, have been retooled to have twins and triplets, which often emerge weakened or deformed, dying in such numbers that even meat producers have been repulsed. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/01/20/dining/animal-welfare-at-risk-in-experiments-for-meat-industry.html?referrer

It’s the reason I no longer carry emergency cash on cross-country drives: I’m afraid the police will steal it from me. Well, those days are over.
