Antonin Scalia:Life, Liberty, & the Pursuit of Concentration Camps
As if we needed reasons to fear and loathe Antonin Scalia, we’ve just received another. (WARNING: THE FOLLOWING POST IS DISTURBING.) No, it’s not that hunting trip he took with Cheney – wikipedia offers that “Scalia refused, however, to recuse himself in the case of Cheney v. United States District Court for the District of [...]

Good God!: Religious Violence, Imperialist Violence, Violent-Violence.
As the New York Times pointed out recently, U.S. Iraq War Veterans have been killing people. I mean, not just people from another place, but people in our country. Flabbergasting, isn’t it? We train people to kill non-US citizens, and then they kill US citizens. You’d think all people were created equal or something. So [...]

Metrosexual: Frogs turn to Prince Charmings, Anarchy Ensues?
So I was cleaning out my desk this weekend for the first time since third grade, because I was hoping that somehow my ticket for Rock the Bells would be in there, and I came across some ugly ass wrapping paper. It was graced with snowflakes and the visages of mid-nineties pop stars – [...]

Militant Israeli Pimps & Women as Aggressors
Thanks to Feministing for alerting me to this alarming new campaign- jointly launched by Israel and Maxim- to promote “Women of the Israeli Defense Forces” as objects. According to the BBC, “The pictures are part of a public relations drive to improve the image of the country within the US. Maxim said it was [...]

Price of Freedom:Heteronormativity & Human Blood, $399 and up

The idea that freedom has to be bought, or that the possession of symbolic [...]
