Adoption Again
I had a short, though frustrating, conversation yesterday with someone. We were talking about how Steve Jobs was adopted. I said that the biological parents should be rewarded for giving their child a chance through adoption. He said that it was the parents obligation to raise the child and if they couldn’t raise the child, they shouldn’t have sex.

Communication
I don’t know why, but something has happened to our society where the ability to effectively communicate has been lost. More than that, it has been shunned. People now take pride in their illiteracy. I often hear things like “well that’s just the way I speak” or “you know what I mean”. The worst is “I type the way I speak”. The last one implies that not only can they no longer proofread, but they are also idiots in real life, too.

Birth Control Legislation
Effective August 2012, all health plans must cover birth control and preventative screenings for women. The conservatives are against this because, well, because liberals support the idea. Now I may have voiced my opinions on reproduction in the past. I know. I never speak my mind. Anyway, my argument has been that people are having children, but not raising them properly. They grow up in dysfunctional family systems (addiction, abuse, neglect, etc), but society has brainwashed everyone to think that having children is the end-all/be-all of human life. So rather than treat the psychological and physical effects of this trauma, they just have their own children and pass the trauma…

The Marriage Fallacy
With the recent gay rights advancement in New York, I thought it time I voice my views on gay marriage. There seem to be two arguments against it. First, is the idea of marriage sanctity. Second the idea that homosexuality is a sin. Let’s break this down, shall we?

Boycott Barnes and Noble
Story time. In a couple of weeks I am going to have surgery. (Yay vasectomy) Because of this, I will be taking a week off of work. I figured this would be a great time to do some reading. I have been interested in the Middle East conflict for a while, and a friend recommended a history book on the subject. I looked on Barnes and Noble’s website and saw the book available new for $50. While I was looking around the site I saw the Harry Potter collection for $50 as well. I liked the movies and someone suggested I read the books too. I wasn’t intending on buying…

Minirant: Will Someone Please Sterilize the Duggars?
First of all, let’s talk about America’s Family, the Duggars. Josh Duggar (the oldest of the 19 waste of space brood from Jim Duggar and his cum factory… I mean “wife”) announced the addiction… I mean “addition” of the second to their own brood of unnecessary people.

Dwight Benson is Public Enemy #1
This is Dwight Benson. Dwight is 64 years old. Dwight was just arrested for his 13th DUI. Let me repeat that. Dwight was just arrested for his THIRTEENTH FUCKING DUI. You see, Benson was in the Navy for 30 years and served multiple tours in Vietnam. He started drinking during the war and has since racked up 18 reckless and alcohol related driving convictions, and more than a dozen other convictions for driving on suspended or invalid licenses. His family claims he suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. So that absolves him.

Adoption Vs. Abortion
I heard someone say “I don’t believe in adoption” recently. First off, you don’t “believe” in it? Like you don’t think it’s real? Secondly, saying “I don’t believe in adoption” is basically saying “I don’t believe in putting my child first” or “I don’t believe in giving my child a chance at a happy life”. Now, I won’t get into the debate about when life starts. I don’t care. For the sake of this post, let’s say that it’s a living organism that could grow into another fucked up person. As a parent, you have the ability, nay OBLIGATION, to raise the child to be a productive member of society.…

The Root of All Evil
I firmly believe that the root of all of society’s problems is unfit parents. Crime is almost always perpetrated by child from a dysfunctional family. We are profoundly over populated. We just keep popping out more and more children.

Politicians
Listen you pricks in Washington: YOU WORK FOR US. Your job is to do what WE tell you to do. I’m so sick of the people WE PAY to represent US forgo what WE want because it’s not what THEY want. Why is it that the only time they seem to care about the tax payers (read salary payers) is during election time? Oh yeah. Because then we benefit THEM. As soon as they are elected, they could care less we exist.
