Jaywalking Into Oblivion

What a Bitch!

chingalera says...

Whoa, this is at a Stros game, you evil Texas bitch!...So look at her friend with her arms crossed and lips pursed when the camera rolls over....she's reserving her "high five" and biting her tongue, tight-lipped smile; This is a woman with a conscience.-Embarrassed.

What do you mean uncomfortable? one of them gave her a high five

Trump Gets Trumped by David Letterman

DrDelos says...

Far be it for me to defend Trump in any way, but he never said not to do business with China. His campaign against China is all about how the US is getting on tariffs, import/export duties, and trade treaties. I have seen his rants about China on talk shows previously and it is always the same - China negotiates deals with us very shrewdly and the US rolls over to their slightest demands.

The Weird World of Octopus Sex

grinter says...

Nat Geo puts out such trash these days. Even the Discovery Channel does better nature documentaries. Where'd they get that narrator; was if from Talk Soup on E! or from the Animal Planet ('I used my phone to videotape my dog acting neurotically') network?
David Attenborough might die early just so that he can roll over in his grave at this crap.

..and octopus don't have "tentacles". They have arms, eight arms.

This is Water

artician says...

This whole video feels like a passive aggressive “it’s okay to conform to your shitty reality” message. Very well done production, sure, but something I fundamentally disagree with. Our modern lives aren’t solely issues of acceptance and perspective. They are an issue of acting, forming and changing our shared reality to the betterment of our shared, personal existence. The guy who wrote this clearly had good intentions, but conveys a fundamental roll-over, accept-things-as-the-are message.

We can change our reality, and this makes no suggestion of that. Sure, most young peoples “default” is to grow frustrated with the tedium they find in day-to-day existence, but the answer isn’t entirely one of personal judgment. We can change all of this in many, many ways.

It’s healthy to consider that everyone around you feels the same way. No one is the center of the world. Everyone in it is just as important as you, but no more, and no less. You should fight for everyone around you just as hard as you fight for yourself.

This video was irritating and manipulative on several different levels.
Don’t buy into this.
Be a good human.
Change your environment for the passive-betterment of everyone.
If you hit a wall, find another way.

And if I have any personal grudge to add it’s this: certainly don’t be the waste of space who accepts the status quo, and then ostracizes those who reject it just because you too weak to do so.

"And if thy right hand offend thee, Bruce Campbell."

probie says...

The scene where Bruce falls down, hears a *crick* and looks up to see the deer head on the wall has come alive, it's eyes rolled over in white......and it starts laughing at him?

That imagery still freaks me out to this day.

Native American Shuts Down Anti-Illegal Immigrant Protest

burdturgler says...

You're argument is flawed as well. Generally speaking, people immigrating here (legally or not) aren't trying to take military control over the country. They just want a better life. To compare a group of impoverished "huddled masses, yearning to breath free," to a military force is ridiculous. Do you seriously equate illegal immigration to military invasion? Do you think Mexicans coming to the US should roll over the border with tanks and stealth bombers in order to pick our apples and dig our onions out of the dirt?

Your words suggest that anything taken by force is justified.

jonny said:

There is a serious flaw in this guy's argument. He's absolutely right that Europeans weren't invited here and committed genocide in order to colonize. But that doesn't really have anything to do with immigration. The land was taken from his ancestors by force. If any of the nutters he's yelling at were capable of thought beyond that of a parrot, they might point out that those who wish to immigrate illegally are free to try to take it by force themselves.

Why Israel and the US want to launch a war against Iran

Yogi says...

Kuwait is a tiny country, and didn't have nearly the military that Iraq had because of US support of Iraq. Do you remember until he attacked Kuwait he was a big Ally, we loved him and supported him right through his greatest atrocities.

The Gulf War was just us rolling over them, it wasn't even a fight it was us flexing our muscles and a good sign to other countries not to step out of line. We then allowed Saddam to stay in power by letting him crush the resistance against him which was serious and would've most likely overthrown him. We imposed sanctions that were in the words of Dennis Halliday "Genocidal." And which when asked if killing 500,000 Iraqi children was ok Madeline Albright said "We think the price is worth it."

Iran isn't like Iraq at all, either before the Gulf War or Before the Iraq War. It's got a much more powerful and technological military. Also the US is simply not as powerful as it was. Remember the Gulf War was just after the Wall Fell, we were the worlds only super power. The Iraq War was against a basically helpless nation (even Kuwait wasn't afraid of them anymore), and we were stuck there for years, it was ridiculous how we fucked it up so amazingly. Russia in Chechnya is pissing themselves over how we fucked it up so badly. If David Petraeus could do what Putin did, he's probably be considered the greatest military man the US had ever seen.

I'm sorry but we cannot invade Iran like we did Iraq, simply because the world is changing too quickly. It's not going to happen, and if it does, you'll see a real uprising in the US. The OWS thing has more sympathy than people think, it's just bubbling under the surface. If it's given a huge cause the troops will have to be called back to the US to control the population.

Also contrary to popular belief Wars don't make money, they cost money. Preparing for War makes money, the Military Industrial complex wants to always be spending money Preparing for War and not having to fight one that would take significant resources, like getting bogged down in Iran.

I'm sorry but it's just nothing like the same thing going on. I don't think we're going to be invading Iran on the ground ever do to the change in the power system and the enemy.

Saddam wasn't weak in the beginning, he was strong enough to think that he can invade Kuwait and take over their oil. But after years of sanctions, its government turned into shambles and it was easy meal for Bush.

So the US strategy is for Democrats to sanction n weaken, then for the Republicans to go in for the kill. Iraq was sanctioned heavily by Clinton, and when Bush came in, it was turn to invade. That is why it they fixed the intelligence to fit the policy of invasion. It was a plan years in development.

Now Obama has put heavy sanctions on Iran, which is already taking a heavy toll on Iran people. This will continue for another four years. Then the next administration, which undoubtedly will be a Republican will do the invasion. By that time, Iran's government will be in shambles and its people so demoralized that its going to be as easy as Iraq invasion.

The Green movement was Iran's only chance to change the invasion plan and now that has been lost, by regime's own arrogance. Also the military industrial complex needs another war to feed on, and unfortunately it seems like that it is going to get it.

Not yet. The Mayan y2k isn't for a few hours yet, it's either late tonight or early in the morning on Saturday.

I want to know why everyone thinks that the calendar rolling over to a new cycle means the end of the world? I mean, unless they're all just angling for some great end of the world parties... in which case sign me up

Huge amounts of Coal Seam Gas bubbling in Australian River

ghark says...

The Govt. rolled over on this one, CSG fracking has been well under way for a while now in Aus. I read a while back a commission was setup to examine the risks of drilling, and the Greens wanted a moratorium until the commission was complete (5 years), but not sure of the outcomes of that.

Low Cost Solution To Landmine Clearance.

bmacs27 says...

>> ^Drachen_Jager:

@aaronfr
I lived in a heavily mined area for six months, so I think I know how aware people are in those situations. However, I don't expect a five year old kid to have that same discipline, and quelle surprise, most of those who are injured or killed by old minefields are children. I don't think your point here is relevant.
When these things are done rolling around the desert, what is the certainty that desert is clear? If they don't clear spaces so they're actually safe, what's the point? Randomly detonate a few mines?
There's a reason it's expensive to clear mines properly, and comparing these things to proper mine clearance, and then comparing the pricetag is laughable.


I agree with you in part, but I think the strong form of your argument is a bit much. Certainly randomly detonating a few mines is helpful. If you can send some arbitrarily large number of these things (30 per mine you would have cleared in a sweep) rolling over the desert until you are ultimately detonating very few mines then it is also substantially less likely that a wayward 5 y.o. is going to stumble on one. It doesn't seem like an all or none proposition. I agree, before an area can be designated clear it should be properly swept. However, properly clearing the field is probably too expensive to be feasible. At least reducing the danger could save lives when those kids that don't know any better happen to wander after a stray ball in the still potentially dangerous mine field. Also, the number of mines that need to be safely disarmed could be reduced.

Rachel Maddow - In Florida, voting as endurance challenge

shagen454 says...

I used to think the term "fascist" was highly overrated and over-used. Bring it back, they are here. Orwell wouldn't roll over in his grave, he wold resurrect, watch the TV, read a newspaper, mutter "shit, it's worse than I thought", find a pistol, blow his brains out.
