Masturbation is at the heart of the culture wars because it offers women autonomy. Furthermore, men who masturbate are less likely to see women as the keepers of something men desperately need.

I loved Ray Manzarek's organ music so much that I even tolerated the guy braying crap like "Our love become a funeral pyre" on his records.

Umbrellagate
Once again Barack Hussein Obama shocks the conscience of the nation by doing something all the white presidents have done.

Tumblr is not going to be as much fun if everyone has to come into the Yahoo! office to do it.

I wish we had the kind of humane health care system where a man could quietly ask for the mental treatments he desperately needs instead of having to go on the air and announce that he wants to shoot Hillary Clinton in the vagina.

That ornament* to the ~~Senate~~ House of Representatives Louie Gohmert performed the difficult feat of making Attorney General Holder look good. I am happy to join in on the Gohmert pile-on.

Happy birthday, akirlu. I don't know if it's anybody else's birthday because lj is malfunctioning, presumably as a result of unprotected contact with Facebook.

I posted this to dw because lj will accept crossposts but not direct posts.
