Debating on the Internet

Ah, the Internet debate. So prevalent, and yet so universally despised. An excellent topic for discussion. Or debate.

Huzzah. 

But first--a pie chart.


 These data were collected (yes, data is a plural noun) by thirty-seven and a half brilliant urologists from Harvard with the help of the Hubble telescope in an international study.

It must be true.

Nice as the color variety may be, the picture is grim. Unfortunately, this chart depicts the current state  of Internet debates quite well. As an avid lover of both the Internet and debate, I felt moved to do something about it.

So I published this argumentative post on the Internet.

We all have our own ways of contributing.

Graduation

Thought I might as well post this, to mark this moment in my life and crap.

Today I officially graduated. I have my little transcript, diploma, and everything. It's all nice and proper.

Now I ascend to the next level of the perpetual monkey-dance of human social existence. Huzzah!

I should have a bit more time now to devote to this blog.

Government is Watching You

I found this article recently. Educate yourselves, my people.

It is essential these days to learn how to better protect yourself from unwanted government observation. Because it's not like you can fight back if they decide they don't like you or the things you say.

A pity we have come to this.

This is for the producers of every sword movie ever. Educate yourselves, I beg you.

Video of the Week: Copyright

Ah, copyright. Another one of those things government just doesn't seem to have thought through too well, despite the incredible impact it has upon society and culture.

This video explains the original intentions of copyright, and how that has been perverted by greedy corporations (those guys seem to be behind everything bad, don't they?).



On a side note, I am afraid these video posts may be the only thing I get done on this blog for the next few weeks. I am frantically trying to get my novel written and my other courses finished by June. So, there will be a bit of a slowdown here until then.

Video of the Week: What They Don't Teach You in College

This week's  video shall be on the topic of college, another thing which has occupied much of my thoughts over the past few years. College is  one of the biggest businesses in America, and it is no secret that there are many flaws with the way it is used these days.

I love the way this guy describes it. I suggest you watch his other videos as well; this man is amazing. Prepare yourself for randomness.
