And so it begins, and SOPA/PIPA hasn't even been voted on yet.

For the linkophobic, basically Megaupload got shut down over a few users who pirated copyright material.  Now, while I'm not at all against enforcing copyright laws in principle, I do object to the idea in how entertainment moguls want to enforce such infringements by strong-arming sites ( Read more... )

You know what they say about what comes around, goes around, right?

Tough nuts, Mrs. Santorum.  If your husband wasn't such a rabid homophobe who compared sex between two consenting adults to bestiality and otherwise wanting to turn people like me into second-class citizens, then maybe he wouldn't be getting all kinds of heat from the LGBT community ( Read more... )

So I now know why I don't hero-worship the likes of Frank Miller.  Apparently, he's an Islamophobic privileged man who thinks 99 percenters are "louts".  I was thinking of watching "Sin City", which is based on one of his graphic novel series, but now I think I'll pass on it, much like I've decided not to see any more movies with Mel Gibson and why ( Read more... )
