the end, thislooksfamiliar
when the comets explode, and the fires burn blue
and the earth turns to ash, under grey hue,
the wind howls against the burning dead plains
and there is no more violence, there is no more pain.
everything gone, in a flash of bright white
before in creeps the darkness to starve out the nightlove is a word and thought is a crime
description is gone, as well as the time.
all over forever, does it make your head hurt?
right in the back? where you KNEW before birth?
the cause is unknown, the result is quite clear.
the being is gone, and the knowing is near.so the dust gathers up, all in the corner
a lone person watches, a solemn young mourner.
impacts and shaking do not disturb
the serenity and tranquility of this peaceful mood.
keeping watch on the motion and holding it all
inside and inside forever, for after the fall.the scene drifts away, like sand on a beach
and remembrance is shallow, forgetting is sweet
it floats out of the mind and towards the heart
held on to like everything, right from the start
the curtain falls upon the world’s head
the looker looks on, remembering the end

Scientology is not a religious organisation; it is a criminal organisation that hides behind its so-called religious beliefs.

Senator calls for police inquiry into Scientology I really hope I’m alive to witness the fall of Scientology. It’s gonna be spectacular, bizarre, heartwarming, and riveting. (via danielholter) (via soupsoup) |
Can you imagine how the right-wing noise machine would react if President Obama:
Increased federal spending as a percentage of the economy to levels previously seen only during World War II.
Tripled the national debt.
Dramatically increased Social Security payroll taxes on employees and employers.
Increased the capital gains tax to 28%.
Raised gas taxes.
Increased federal government employment.
Created a massive new cabinet department.
Sold arms to Iran.
Withdrew entirely from a Middle Eastern war zone in response to a single deadly terrorist attack against US troops.
Funded terrorist groups in our own hemisphere.
Signed a treaty committing to make deep cuts in our strategic nuclear weapons.
Proposed the total elimination of nuclear weapons.
I’m sure there would not be enough tea in India to express the wingnut outrage.
And what if the most expensive federal office building in history was subsequently named after him? I’m sure it would be mocked as a fitting legacy to this “big government” president.
The president I’m describing is, of course, Ronald Reagan.
and i agree with them.
as it stands now, in certain states the police can, or are required to, take a saliva or blood sample of everyone they arrest for a felony. the problem lies in the fact that not every person the police arrest is guilty of the crime with which they are charged.
basically, the argument is summed in this quote:
Our position is before you take somebody’s genetic information, you need either a warrant or that person needs to be convicted of a felony with all the procedural protections anybody gets when you are charged and tried with a felony.
