Michael Moore says, “Vote Green!”

Elect a Green
Sometimes when the Democrats suck, they really, really suck. And sometimes, you gotta teach ‘em a lesson. And hey, it’s not like the Republicans would be overjoyed either. We can crack the two party system.

Here are some elections where the Democrats have all but surrendered to their opponents or are equally conservative, leaving […]

Bi chants for Pride marches!

From a posting by Joshua Standig, jstandig -_at_- mindspring.com to the babn-chat mailing list….
The first one is based on a sign I made for the Pride Parade, reading “We
GLOW both ways.” When folks do this one (especially at night,) it would
be nicely theatrical to use lamps or flashlights, in […]

I write badly, therefore I am a would-be terrorist
By CHARLES C. GREEN
I don’t think of myself as a dangerous character. Neither, I think, do
the lively old ladies who routinely trample me on the escalators at
Neiman Marcus. Nor the other software salesmen who race past me into
early retirement. […]

Interesting site… mapping Google.

[Interesting way of visualizing where a web site sits in relation to other sites… if I understood the algorithm better, I’d probably understand the results better. For a simple site, like www.polygreens.org, for instance, they make total sense. For more complex sites, I’m unclear on how connections are made, since some of them seem really […]

Letter to GLADD re: annoying bisexual stereotype in comic strip

Re: Pearls Before Swine, July 2nd, 2004 (use archive links to get to this edition starting tomorrow)
Cathy,
I’m not outraged by the July 2nd edition of “Pearls Before Swine”, just
annoyed and mildly pissed off… yes, I get that there’s little opportunity
to provide context in a comic strip, but having the tired stereotype of the
bisexual […]

Global Mind

[The article below is dense enough to give me a headache, but among the abstruse and intensely complicated conceptualizations, there are some interesting nuggest. In particular, the pointer to the Global Consciousness Project got my attention. Demonstrates that reality is wilder than Science Fiction. My now deceased partner, Chris Schefler, was really into the whole […]
