Yemen and Algeria →
As we speak about the on going situation in Egypt, let’s not forget Yemen and Algeria.
I dislike the idea of forcing other countries into democracy, but when their people cry out for it, and are stifled by their leaders, what can you do but support them? Please, pray if you are religious and keep these people in your thoughts if you’re not.

Had he been brown skinned and Muslim, they sure woulda mentioned that and I’m sure Fox News would be discussing it as we speak. I wonder if he’s Christian?
: What's Happening in Egypt Explained. (UPDATED) →
promotingpeace:
The basics: Egypt is a large, mostly Arab, mostly Muslim country. At around 80 million people, it has the largest population in the Middle East and the third-largest in Africa. Most of Egypt is in North Africa, although the part of the country that borders Israel, the Sinai…
URGENT: Egypt has shut off the internet →
I just received a call from a friend in Cairo (I won’t say who it is now because he’s a prominent activist) telling me neither his DSL nor his USB internet service is working. I’ve just checked with two other friends in different parts of Cairo and their internet is not working either.
This just happened 10 minutes ago — and perhaps not uncoincidentally just after AP TV posted a video of a...

Indecisive
I am one of the most indecisive people in the world.
Or at least in the top ten. :\

nothing but feelings
I feel like no one takes me seriously about anything, but I can’t exactly blame them, considering the ways I act.
But I could say that I am sad, or even something awful like I’d like to kill myself, and I don’t think anyone would blink an eye. They might go “aw”, but I think for the most part, they would just shrug it off. It’s Robin, after all.

Islam
So let’s get some shit straight about Islam.
I am not a Muslim, and I doubt I ever will be (monotheism and organized religion does not call to me is the reason, not because I dislike Islam itself). However, I hate stupidity and abhor racism justified by ignorant people who claim to be all about human rights.
First things first: very similarly to Christianity, Islam is about being close to...

cabdriver:
In the view of Islam, a person is either Muslim or non-Muslim. This is a type of racism—though it is not based simply on race. They do not accept all people as equal: they believe the Muslim is superior to the non-Muslim. This is a type of racism. Muslims are…
Um, this is what being fucking stupid looks like.
In the view of Christianity, everyone is either a...

I’m really sad that the most active political blog and Green Party blog annoyed the tits off me. :(
Cycling!
I went to a cycling class yesterday and I woke up this morning with huge bruises on my knees and a very sore pelvic bone… O__o;; I must not have adjusted it correctly. Ouchy ouchy.
Alright, you can be my nipple, god damn.

What can you do to stop hunger?
Best answer for many: think about what it is like to be hungry, and how it hurts.
Then, think some more. Let it weigh on your mind.
If you cannot actively participate in aiding the people who are forced to live in hunger, allow your money to provide the means for others to help. Go to actionagainsthunger.org to donate to a great organization.

Shootings and Violent Language →
Fantastic article. However, I don’t think anyone is innocent - right or left, politician or not. The fact of the matter is, is that in this country, it took a shooting of a wonderful politician to bring to our eye that we are too violent. We didn’t see it when they asked us to shoot M16s with them, we didn’t see it when they called for “second amendment remedies”, nor...

TOMS Shoes - Sorry, Hipster, it ain't good
I’m kind of annoyed by Tom’s Shoes. You pay $54 to get some shoes made of rubber, burlap, and toxic glue (probably just fifty cents to a dollar to make) so that a child can have a pair of shoes. But, I don’t understand this. You could go to Good Will and find shoes for a dollar and then donate fifty-three dollars to a charity to help someone.
There is a kid who goes to school...

Running
Today, I ran. And I ran, and ran. I ran for over three miles. It was just on a treadmill, but I still ran.
Right now, I feel really good. Kind of euphoric. My calves kind of ache, but I feel like I am walking easier and my mind is clearer and I have more energy. I feel good. It felt good, to run there. I think this is something I want to do.
And, I don’t mean running to class when...
Back to the Past: 1857 →
Well, now, Americans always like to hide in the idea that we are over racism, but here we are: far right Republicans trying to take us back to the day when Dread Scott made it so that black people weren’t citizens. Great, guys; let’s create a caste system in the Good Ol’ Yoo Ess of Aye.
