Have a heart


and stop the senseless killing...

Hunting is Different than Murder (Shut up Palin)



wasn't this supposed to be a GOODBYE speech!? she spends like a minute and a half on talking about the city she's in during the speech... NO ONE CARES!!! Then continues to talk about the military for another few minutes... THEN talks about how much she hates the media and says they make things up... which yes sometimes they do, but still...
and the near 35 seconds of applause was seriously sickening...
miss "leave his kids alone" get OVER it!!! just because your family sucks and you're still HAVING kids at 40-50 some years old don't get all pissed at the media... and besides i don't think Sarah understands that when you hold a position of any power (especially when you run for vise president!!!) you WILL be put under a microscope!!! your family WILL be analyzed! the media's job is to INFORM so their INFORMING the public of your family's activities so they can know if you're a HYPOCRITE or not!
anyway I'm honestly sick of the god stuff all the time... don't get me wrong, I'm catholic.... BUT NOT EVERYONE IN THE DAMN U.S. BELIEVES IN GOD!!!
continuing with the speech she goes on about her oil and gas lines... THAT YOU DRILL INTO THE VALUABLE WILDERNESS THAT WE HAVE LEFT!!! that's honestly all she cares about is the goddamn oil and making a profit... "the exploration is our future, it opens up new oil basins and it ensures the people will never be taken advantage of again" well if you'd put some of your precious oil money into finding ALTERNATIVES for oil YOU WOULD HAVE TO DRILL AND USE IT ALL UP! it's NOT RENEWABLE!!!
omg here's the killer "i promised i would protect this beautiful environment while safely and ethically developing resources... and we DID!" Fuck NO you didn't!!! do you think the environment is just TREES and MUD!?!? What about the polar bears and beluga whales you want off the endangered species list so you can have your OIL? what about the hundreds of wolves you shoot and kill because they eat a few caribou and take away from your GAME HUNTING PROFITS!? *sigh* but I'll get to that in a minute...
so apparently she wants to hold schools accountable... why the fuck should some crackhead who refuses to try in school affect the school's funding and hold the teachers responsible for his/her stupidity?!?! How is that fair to the kids who WANT to do well who WANT to succeed? who WANT TO BE SOMEBODY?!
ok then back to the wildlife "I promised to manage our fish and wildlife for abundance." obviously the number of caribou is more important than the dwindling population of the grey wolf that has now been extirpated from almost all of the goddamn US!
"special interests groups still just don't get it... you're going to see anti hunting, anti second amendment circuses from Hollywood... they use these delicate, tiny, very talented celebrity starlets... and Hollywood needs to realize we eat, therefore we hunt."
there's a difference between hunting for food and going to a game farm where the animals are hand fed and shooting them in the head when they walk up to you... there's a difference between walking in the cold to look for game to hunt and chasing down a wolf with an airplane until they collapse and shooting it!!! I'm sorry but that's MURDER!
then she goes on to her energy solution plans spiel...and.. "we're FINALLY seeing gas and oil drilling at fort Thompson!" and that's probably the last of America's oil!!! yay!!! *grr*
then more excitement about using natural gas...and i guess using natural gas will make us a more peaceful nation? i don't know where the hell she gets that from...
talking about the pioneers.. yada yada, big central government (which honestly that's the only republican view i agree with... that and the death penalty... but we'll get to that another day I'm sure...)yada yada
omg!!! i wanted to scream when i heard this next part.. "to be self sufficient, Alaska must be allowed to develop, to drill and build..." WTF?! honestly?! she wants to take the last real frontier and DEVELOP IT?! You've got to be fucking JOKING!!! Aren't humans overpopulated ENOUGH?! now we have to live deep in the frickin' wilds of Alaska!?
more with the god's grace shit....
"carve wealth out of the wilderness" IS THAT ALL YOU CARE ABOUT?! YOU GREEDY BITCH!!!!
okay then she FINALLY says goodbye... thank you good lord almighty...

okay now the MAIN point of this ranting...


full view and favorite this pic here

and I'm copy pasting the info here from that same page because I'm sick of writing... so no i didn't write this next part but i agree with every word and it expresses my views...

Denning, the act of “grabbing (14) frightened young pups and one-by-one blowing their brains out with a pistol,” was outlawed decades ago, but the Alaskan Fish and Game department tried to hide that after committing the crime. . ~ quote by Alaska wolf biologist Gordon Haber who opposes denning and publicized the crime that the killers tried to hide.However, Sarah Palin’s department of Fish and Game, believe that the low caribou and moose population was cause by wolf predation. Their solution? Kill the wolves! And thus 800 wolves have been shot, usually from a helicopter [link] called aerial hunting, in the past four years. Even though Alaskans have voted down aerial hunting TWO TIMES, Plain’s department continued their slaughter regardless of the Alaskan’s wishes. They call it population control which is BS. As an Environmental Science major student of University of California Berkeley, I find wolf population control, aerial hunting, and denning to be extremely STUPID (not to mention cruel. How would you like to be shot from a helicopter and your entire family slaughtered?)Ever heard of the predator-prey cycle? [link] Basically, increasing predator population (wolves) cause decrease in prey population (caribou). With less food to eat, the predator population would naturally decline. Thus with less predator, the prey population would naturally increase once more which cause an increase predator. This is the natural cycle that drives evolution. Each time when there are too many predators, the preys are put under greater natural selection; only the fittest escape predation. Each time when there are not enough preys, the predators are put under greater natural selection; only the fittest can find enough food. This is a NATURAL CYCLE, so why are humans disrupting evolution by randomly slaughtering entire packs of wolves regardless of their fitness? If any species of animals need population control, it’s the human population [link]Again, if you oppose this barbaric slaughter of innocent pups and other wildlife, spread the word, sign a petition, or donate[link]

so yeah that's their spiel and i appreciate what that site is trying to do (if you click on the links...) but i wished they'd get the word out more before that bitch runs for presidency or something... we don't need a wolf hating murderer, we need a leader...

Free Music Tyme!!!


There's lots of sites out there that say "OMG LOOK! FREE MUSIC DOWNLOADS! THEY"RE SO LEGAL!" yeah ignore them... they're shit and either have a monthly charge or they give your computer so much shit it's ridiculous... like limewire, sure it's a wonderful thing and all *sarcasm* but it opens up your ENTIRE computer!! if you have resumes or tax files, if you do your banking online... IT"S ALL OUT THERE!!! with identity theft such a problem I'm not sure if you want to trust your information to the Internet, hackers, and all the members of limewire whom I'm sure you could get their info too... it'll be a new nation... Trade a Life .com!!! a new for of entertainment... like Pokemon cards... ("hey I'll trade my middle aged loan adjuster who got recently divorced for your single 34 year old veterinarian with 3 kids!!!) it's ridiculous!
okay, i digress...
what i ORIGINALLY wanted to talk about was a site called mp3zr.com. it's actually not half bad, yes it's one of those subscription ones but you can still download files if you don't have a membership.
The Pros?
it's free, not free if you subscribe free, but actual god-honest, cardboard box not owned by a hobo free!
There's actually a lot of selection, one of my favorite bands is from New Zealand and i can never find their stuff... but they have nearly every song i couldn't find on there!
The Cons? Yes there are unfortunately...
Because of your "free member" status you have to wait.... a lot... about a minute or so to actually load BEFORE downloading, the download its self (that's not bad though...) then about... gosh i don't remember... 12 minutes between downloads? so yeah... it's bad.
they don't have EVERYTHING under the sun... my boyfriend wanted me to find Glen Phillips "Departure" and i can't find it anywhere!!! (let me know if you find a video of the song in good quality or have the song... I'd love you forever!!! (and I'm sure he would too!!!))
Conclusion?
if you're willing to endure the wait or can't find a song, check it out... and if you want to subscribe it's actually pretty reasonable... it's like $5 for 30 days? a lot cheaper than iTunes!!! (don't even get me started with that...)
I give it 3 out of 5 music notes :P
So at least give it a looksee... HERE!

Depp at Comic-Con

I'm sorry but what on earth do you girls see in him!? Sure, i'll give him credit for some of his films... Edward Scisorhands is a classic, and The Secret Window... AMAZING!!! Pirate's series... overrated... Sweeny Todd? ...way too fake...
moving on...
Why in God's name is Johnny boy at COMIC-CON!!!? honestly?! can't you just leave one day without "common celebrities" and leave us Comic freaks to our own celebrities? Rumiko Takehashi? Brian Micheal Bendis? Neil Gaiman? Alan Moore!? good god what i'd give to talk with that guy! i mean how many comic writers get to the times top 100 novels list?! now THAT's who i'd want to meet! Not Mr. Dudmuffin Depp!
you want the whole story go here... but it's not really worth your time...

Word of the Week!

Since i know in American society no one actually wants to pick up a dictionary to expand their vocabulary, I'm doing a word of the week... every week on Thursdays i will post a new and exciting word for you all... starting today because i doubt most of you know what Pareidolia is... here we go...

Pareidolia
A psychological experience in which random stimuli is perceived as important or significant.
Examples...
Seeing shapes in the clouds,
the man in the moon,

so there you have it folks... Word #1!

Day One of My Nonsense

"All our knowledge has it's origins in our perceptions."
~Leonardo da Vinci
And this is where I begin i suppose. here you have it... take it or leave it, my perceptions on everything i can possibly think of... (i can guarantee a lot of stuff on here in this first day... my mind is wandering everywhere!!!) Stuff that buggs me, intrigues me or just generally catches my eye. Enjoy!
