“His cock swung from side to side like the pendulum of a grandfather clock on speed.”
-Steven King

I don’t really like King that much but this description stuck with me. I read that in high school.

thats deep , what do you think he meant by it :)
 

Fred's Myth

Nonhyphenated American
A pair of lawmakers in New Jersey want the state’s schools to stop using the classic Mark Twain novel “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn“ in their classrooms.
It has the N word listed over 200 times.
Classify it as pornography and they’ll not only leave it alone, they’ll endorse it.

The EU just passed a law that gives the internet to the government and large corporate interests, as well as squelch dissent of anything the EU is doing.

Europe passes new copyright law

For an overview of changes brought forth by the Copyright Directive, straight from the European Commission, go here. But the two clauses that caused the most hubbub are articles 11 and 13.

Article 11 says that search engines and news aggregators must pay news websites for using snippets of their content. Article 13 says tech companies such as Google and Facebook are responsible for copyrighted material posted on their services without a proper license.

Article 13 effectively transfers responsibility for posting copyrighted content from the user to the platform (you've likely seen something similar in action when YouTube mutes a video because it used a copyrighted song). But if platforms are to police the content, it's possible that they'll simply ban certain types of content altogether using so-called upload filters, ultimately stifling creativity and freedom of expression.

The Russians have you propagandize here. Maybe Rice’s theory isn’t so far fetched?
heres what happened to you:

you used to be a far right winger. maybe that wasnt so bad in the sense that you supported ron paul, or maybe you were a neocon.

now you are a deluded liberal who supports the neoliberal corporate wing of the democratic party, which means most of hte democrats. thats who you wasted your time campaigning for.

you still have a ways to go.
