You just can’t get enough of our president elect.

And you just can’t get enough of eight bit sound tracks.

Here’s a really stupid flash game that makes the future feel like the past and the present a moment in time. At least it has the eight bit sound track.

Quote of the Day [11.12.08]

“A few months ago, I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions still tell me that’s true. But the facts and the evidence tell me it is not.”

President Reagan walking back a lie, March 4, 1987

Quote of the Day [11.11.08]

There’s no point in asking us you’ll get no reply
I just steam in but I don’t decide
I got no reason it’s all too much
you’ll always find us
Out to lunch!
We’re so pretty oh so pretty vacant
We’re so pretty oh so pretty vacant

Sex Pistols, “Pretty Vacant”

Continuing on with the anti-anti-intellectualism from yesterday.

Anti-intellectualism is a standing beef I have with the Republican party. Thinking is a gift that God gave us to separate us from the other animals. Why not praise it? Pointy-headed nerds got us on the moon. What’s stupid fucktard president got us? Rhetoric for going to Mars. Talk is talk. Nerds rule. And smart is sexy. It’s great to know what you are talking about, and to be curious of things in the world. It sucks if your the political party against stuff like that.

Hopefully, this’ll change.
