Love's Philosophy by Percy Bysshe Shelley
The fountains mingle with the river And the rivers with the ocean, The winds of Heaven mix for ever With a sweet emotion; Nothing in the world is single, All things by a law divine In one spirit meet and mingle - Why not I with thine? See the mountains kiss high Heaven And the waves clasp one another; No sister-flower would be forgiven If it disdained its brother; And the sunlight clasps the...

Are The Hobbit's Casting Agents Racist? (link) →
I’m sorry, but this is political correctness at its most ridiculous. Apparantly some people are up in arms because a casting agent for The Hobbit rejected a person auditioning because of their skin color. Not because they are bigoted, but because Hobbits don’t have dark skin. Sometimes, characters just aren’t a certain race. What do you think would happen if a white person tried...

Bridalplasty: Reality TV Becomes Self-Parody... →
Things like this make me lose faith in humanity. This article is about a reality show in which brides-to-be compete to win plastic surgery before their wedding. In a time where marriage is supposed to be the ultimate declaration of love and commitment, why is consumption and showmanship such a large part of the process? I can see how this was useful in a time where marriage was more about money...

Meet Your New Privilege-Denying Dude (link) →
Due to some copyright issues, the original privilege-denying dude, one of my favorite tumblr memes, was pulled off of this wonderful site. In this Jezebel article, we meet the new guy who has stepped up to keep the meme alive but offering up his smug, white guy face to yet another internet meme. Is it sad that I’m excited about this? Don’t answer that question. I already know.

To The Thawing Wind by Robert Frost
Come with rain. O loud Southwester! Bring the singer, bring the nester; Give the buried flower a dream; make the settled snowbank steam; Find the brown beneath the white; But whate’er you do tonight, bath my window, make it flow, Melt it as the ice will go; Melt the glass and leave the sticks Like a hermit’s crucifix; Burst into my narrow stall; Swing the picture on the...

Walgreens Still Refusing To Sell Emergency... →
This Jezebel article discusses the debate that has been going on for too long about the morning after pill. In this case, particular pharmacies refuse to sell the pill to men because they cannot tell whether the girl he’s going to give it to is over 17 or not. Keep in mind that there is absolutely no medical reason to not give this contraception to girls under 17. Aren’t these the...
