The minute you have lost the ability to have fun and even have a good laugh at yourself then you have lost a very important part of what makes you human. Life is hard enough without taking the time to smile and laugh. Especially in the most stressful of times. Do yourself and others a favor and fucking laugh people. The world has enough assholes in it without you joining the "corncob up the ass" army.
The first song I will be sharing is one that I think is very important especially for parents to hear. It is far more important to teach your children How to think than What to think. They should be taught the ability to think for themselves. Too many parents spend their time trying to program their kids like robots instead of creating free thinking human beings. Enjoy.
Sonata Arctica – “I Have A Right”
Give me the right to be heard,
To be seen, to be loved, to be free,
To be everything… I need to be me,
To be safe, to believe… in something
I have a right to be heard,
To be seen, to be loved, to be free,
To be everything… I need to be me,
To be safe, to believe… in something
Father, there’s a little flower
Beautiful and different, all alone… All alone…
Is it so, Dad? I’m not supposed to
Make the world anew, and be like you? Am I you?
Give me the gift to be heard,
To be seen, to be loved, to be free,
To be everything… I need to be me,
To be safe, to believe… in something
I have a right to be heard,
To be seen, to be loved, to be free,
To be everything… I need to be me,
To be safe, to believe… in something
…Right to be heard,
To be seen, to be loved, to be me…
You made it clear right from the start
I am to take your sour heart within, one sad day…
But I will never teach my son
Embittered history, tried and true, ’cause I’m not you…
I have a right to be heard,
To be seen, to be loved, to be free,
To be everything… I need to be me,
To be safe, to believe… in something
I have a right to be heard,
To be seen, to be loved, to be free,
To have every gift… I need to be me,
To be safe, to believe… in something
Give me the eyes so I see,
Give me ears so I hear,
Give me love so I know what love is,
Give me the freedom to think,
To believe… in something
I have a right to be heard,
To be seen, to be loved, to be free,
To be everything I need to be me,
To be safe, to believe… in something
[Spoken:]
I have a special right to grow up,
and to develope physically and spiritually
in a healthy and normal way.
Free, and with dignity.
I have the right to love, and understanding.
My parents have special responsibilites
for my education and guidance.
I should be taught peace, understanding, tollerance,
and friendship among all people.
So give me the gift to hear, to see,
The love, the freedom to choose the things I feel,
To be right for the world you’ll leave me…
Give something.
Give me the right to be heard,
To be seen, to be loved, to be free,
To be everything I need to be me,
To be safe, to believe… in something
Right to be heard, to be seen,
To be loved, to be free, to be everything,
I need to be heard, to be seen,
To be loved, to be free, to be everything,
I need to be heard, to be seen,
To be loved, to be free, to be everything,
I need to be heard…
How to Avoid Spreading Myths and Misinformation Online

Next time an email, tweet, or link seems a little fishy, here’s how to spot it before your itchy trigger f…
Starting either tonight or tomorrow, I am going to start posting the lyrics to one or two songs (along with links to videos for them if available) that I feel like sharing with you all. It may be that I find the lyrics worth spreading for their deep meaning or just because I find them fucking hilarious or for whatever reason. I'll let you figure out why unless I feel like telling you.
Colorado Will Release All Marijuana Prisoners & Expunge Their Records - PopularResistance.Org
It’s already (clearly) been a landmark year for Colorado, America’s first legal weed state. Legalization has been a full-fledged success, other states are now following (or hoping to follow suit), and the state is reaping in the rewards of its marijuana sales tax. And while Governor Hickenlooper ma…
Watching this. It’s an old movie circa 1966, but it’s really good, and a true story. For anyone who enjoys animals you should check it out.

So ISP’s want people to pay more. NEWSFLASH I and others already pay more for better internet services at least that’s what we’re told. My internet only bill is $82.00 a month, We pay extra for what they call “Extreme Upgrade”. Yet we still have problems with buffering on Youtube & Netflix. Because apparently Time Warner has seen fit to throttle connections to both websites. So they way want to sell me an internet package they don’t want to actually see me using. Not to mention the $200 billion in tax dollars we gave to ISP’s to upgrade their infrastructure which apparently never happened. (http://to.pbs.org/1esJSzD) ISP’s are the Ma Bell of today and unless this Oligopoly is broken up we are all going to pay dearly for it. We need competition and that is not happening on any level and we’re all getting screwed because of it. We also need net neutrality else instead of the internet we’re going to have cable 2.0.
