everythinginthesky:
There’s a new wave of Tumblr spambots. At least, I think there is. They all have the same format of username (firstname-FrenchSoundingLastName(OccasionalLastDigit)). They seem to ‘like’ pairs of things, or reblog an arbitrary number of posts in succession. Their sites are just full of reblogs -…
I really debated whether I should comment on this post or not. Maybe...

Fact Checking Rep. Bachmann's "Tea Party Response"... →
tj:
Great article offered clear citations of the ginormous litany of bullshit, false information, and outright lies that Bachmann told.
Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics has never been more true.
How do you know when Bachmann is either lying or wrong? Her lips are moving.

tesslynch:
I watched a program last night called THE PERILS OF PARENTING on Dateline because there was a big gaping hole in my Tuesday programming, and the morally-sound Dateline crew implied not once, not twice, but three times in ten minutes that this show would be somehow like To Catch a Predator (they…

a rant about creativity
Know what drives me nuts? People who watermark pictures that aren’t theirs. You know, they photoshop some color into it, and then they pretend the picture is theirs? And it gets reblogged over and over and over again, and the actual creator of the work gets no credit??
It really bothers me.
If you didn’t make it, don’t watermark it. Simple. And make sure to give credit...
Because of a bully mentality and a completely...

I would happily go to jail if it means my kid got a better education.
I know MANY people who do this. I am related to a couple. It really is widespread, you know?

P.S. If you don’t like memes, don’t do them.
P.P.S. If the people on Tumblr bug you that much, why do you follow them? Why are you on Tumblr in the first place? It’s called SOCIAL media.
There are these beautiful freedoms in the world called changing the channel, picking another book, making a…
OK, THIS, I will reblog.

Let's talk about sex, baby
Only, let’s not. At least not about my sex life. I have a 16 yr old daughter, on tumblr and she follows me. She doesn’t follow any of you, though….you are safe.
So if I don’t “like” your posts, with big pink puffy hearts…that’s why. They show up on my tumblr theme. And yes, I recognize what a buzz kill I am… I am not happy about it.
But...

My husband is in Brisbane this week, for the Linuxconf.au where he is a speaker. I? AM NOT. I am stuck here with the kids and the dog and this awful cold, and no alcohol, save Nyquil. Ok that last part was a lie, designed to make you feel sorry for me.
Did it work?
He doesn’t get home until next Monday. But if you are thinking of creeping me, know I have a GIANT black dog and she will...
