Who the gently caress wrote this? "Inflame Latino passions," seriously? Here's a better local news article that wasn't passed around the conservative blogosphere:

quote:

Administrators feared the American-flag shirts would enflame the passions of Latino students celebrating the Mexican holiday. Live Oak High had a history of problems between white and Latino students on that day.

That Muir is totally incomprehensible to me. I think it starts going off the rails when there is a simple yes or no question asked and it is responded to with a name.

What's with the "let's" construction on a lot of those (and other ones I've seen elsewhere)? In English it carries overtones of "this is optional, but if you want to", which is not the tone I think it's supposed to have. Is it a Korean thing?

I dunno. Getting your hair caught in machinery is going to result in the top of your head being torn off. It's more horrifying to me than losing a finger.

From a couple pages back, but what is that thing? It looks like the spike walls from that Might and Magic game you would kick people into. I had no idea they were real things, what are they used for?

Its not what it looks like. Rogers was playing with a group of children, doing a counting game where he's start with 5 fingers up, and count each one off by putting them down. He ended up taking down his thumb, his pinky and so on in that order, until he accidentally ended up doing that with his fingers. He broke down giggling halfway through.

This is hilariously whiny, but that's pretty much 100% of Branco anyway. Question: why is "Conserva" on a Star-Of-David stick instead of a cross?

It's also stupid since it's not like the general public can do poo poo about it. When anyone complains about factory farms, there's an entire lobbying group dedicated to pushing the idea that they are liars and hypocrites so the water is muddied. Even if people did care it's not like it's an issue that they could reasonably affect since politicians care about money in their re-election campaign not what animal rights people are concerned with. In the areas where puppy mills are profitable you see similar levels of push back amongst politicians even though the average person finds them repentant.

Also the smug as poo poo "you can't care about ANY animal rights since you eat meat, use medical products to not die, etc " is as stupid as someone saying "you can't care about ANY slavery or worker abuse since you buy products bought in China, Indonesia, India, etc or eat tomatoes grown in Florida " The consumer really doesn't affect it that much and boycotts only have so much power and the poorer you are the less ability you have to avoid products that have suffering attached to them.

It's a good anti-hypocrisy cartoon, I'm not sure why you people think it's bad. It's kind of funny and it gets at Americans who pretend they care about animals' well-being. People who feel bad for animals in movies and have no problem eating factory farmed meat are like the not-concerned-with-factory-farming people who post passionately on Facebook about saving animal-sheltered domestic animals. I think it deserves to be pointed out occasionally, and I'm not even a vegetarian. Factory farming isn't even a major issue in our country.

There's a big, weird disconnect in people's heads about domestic (and movie) animals vs. food animals, a lot like the disconnect in people's heads about the suffering and death of people in the U.S. or of specific people in certain stories and the suffering and death of people in the developing world, and cartoons that point this out and are done well are good.

That's tricky to demonstrate, since "Progressive" doesn't have a well-defined political or philosophical meaning.

Gods, there was so much hosed up poo poo in that time period. For my older sister (1964, I think), the doctors kept the baby from my mom after the birth and told her to give her formula, because it was more sanitary. It's like we were trying to become robots who had no need for intimate contact with other people, right down to the separated beds for married people. It was a horrible, heartless time period in so many ways.
