Maria Cantwell

Wow Wa. Senator Maria Cantwell is frickin’ amazing. She speaks very clearly, accurately and forcefully. And she’s on the right side. Wow…

Meet the Hazzards

Best way I’ve seen so far to get some feeling for where the recovery money went in Meet the Hazzards. The analogies aren’t that great (as the article itself readily admits), but they’re just real-worldy enough to keep your brain awake long enough to get a sense for where the money went and continues to go, and [...]

Absolute corruption

Absolute corruption laid bare.
Wow. Just. wow. Of course everyone knew this was happening, but to see it admitted so openly… Gross!

Google’s Wave

This is very, very VERY cool. Skip in about 7 or 8 minutes to get to the real start, there’s a bunch of talky crap at the start.

Lol, it’s so damn CUTE when people discover the internet for the first time.

Really working [...]

Facebook

If you’re not my facebook friend (or fan at least, I mean come on) you’re missing most of my offhanded comments and snarky video postings these days. FB just makes it too easy, and it’s too hard to pull things over here, too (though I know there are services to kinda do that). That said [...]

Beware the (concern) trolls

Dear media, stop concern trolling the president. He’s not an idiot like bush or a super-careful plodder like clinton (hallowed be thy name, and the length of thy speeches). Maybe, perhaps wait until there is evidence of some bad result from him doing a lot at once before criticizing it. Hypotheticals from Reagan’s speech writer [...]
