Brother Daniel posted this and it is worth posting again… Do not assume that order and stability are always good, in a society or in a universe. The old, the ossified, must always give way to new life and the birth of new things. Before the new things can be born the old must perish. [...]

love is a four letter word

I love it when wingnuts use Jihadi Extremist Terrorist propaganda for their own ends. “Look! Our enemy is proving our point exactly!” The irony and the idiocy is stupendous in its clockwork reliability and its ability to keep that Neo-fascist “We told you that anyone who disagrees with us is a traitor and a terrorist!” [...]

webuzz – obvious: Iraq, panic and other words

December 4, 2006 by DJ Lanphier

Police plant evidence. This is said to be a “revelation”. The elite of Iraq aren’t actually in Iraq. The move has angered Iraqis back home, who complain that they are the same exiled politicians who argued hardest for the US-led invasion. Telling no? Mideast allies near a state of panic. Rumsfeld memo: Tactics in Iraq [...]

December 1, 2006 by DJ Lanphier

Screenwriters in the shit… no shock there… Like other areas of “the biz”, the bar has been lowered to such a degree… From the “You want to turn away but are eerily drawn to it” files: ‘This Is What a Washed-Up Pornographer Looks Like’. Not that we ever wondered… The Sundance Film Festival 2007 lineup [...]
