Resident Evil 5: as racist as a piece of paper
“what color paper?”, you ask.
of course you would ask that, because you’re obviously a filthy despicable racist.
and that’s just it. the debate thus far about Resident Evil 5, Capcom’s latest release in the venerable survival-horror-zombie-killfest videogame franchise (which has also spawned a hugely successful movie series), has little or nothing to do with the game’s [...]
hello (again) world…
…and welcome to observulsion 2.0
now we shall see what we shall see.

no thing is good thing
two quick things. because everybody’s going to have, and likely already has had, something to say about this fiasco.
first there’s the recent revelation that FEMA held a fake news conference on Oct. 23, in which FEMA employees posed as reporters, asking softball questions about the agency’s response to the California fires.
whitehouse spokeschick Dana Perino said on [...]
McCain vs. Ware vs. Drudge vs. Truth
CNN’s Michael Ware suuuure is controversial, and frankly i’m shocked that CNN hasn’t abandoned him in Baghdad (yet).
no, he hasn’t been drawing maps in the sand to give away troop locations. he hasn’t been maligning Retired members of the US Military. he’s been reporting the ground truth from Iraq, since before the war even began. and some [...]
quote of the century
130,000 troops mired down in an uncivil war just isn’t enough, let’s make it 150,000… no wonder the President looks so happy. Happy enough to tell the TRUTH, if only for a moment.
All hail our dear leader, george “money trumps peace” bush.

anna nicole smith died on Thursday.
on that same day, a US airstrike killed 13 ‘militants’ west of Baghdad.
great, right? well, sure - until you find out that the same airstrike also killed up to 45 civilians.
that’s 45 CIVILIANS - women, children, etc…
what? you hadn’t heard about that story, because of the minute-by-minute ‘breaking news’ coverage of the [...]
all hail the mooninites
Gentlemen… BEHOLD! - wait, i mean
…Spacecataz…
o my freaking god… if ever an event could shake me from four months of braindeath, rekindle the flickering embers of chaos and more importantly convince me to sit here for a second and type out a few words, it is this. the biggest rush of exuberant joy i’ve felt [...]
Benedict to Muslims: I’m Sorry (that you’re so stupid)
another uproar, reminiscent of the Danish cartoon uproar. there must be a stronger word than ‘uproar’ to describe widespread unrest that sees churches firebombed and a nun murdered, but for the moment i’m going to stick with ‘uproar’… any suggestions are welcome. (update #1: ‘furor’)
now, Benedict XVI has an apparent knack for shooting from the [...]
best.spam.ever.
back for a sec with a beautiful, serendipitous moment in time.
i get about 100 unsolicited mass-advertising bot-generated emails per day, and i rarely visit the junk mail folder except to delete its contents. except for yesterday. for some ungodly reason i decided to browse around and see who and what had been sending me so [...]
