Liberal Debutante

You know there is something horribly wrong with your life when you don’t even remember getting up at 7:41 am to your beeping alarm, and resetting it to wake you up 3 hours later. That means I missed a class, just barely made it to another… but did manage to get more than 4 hours of sleep last night. Yay. (And I fell asleep in the Carpe Diem [atheist, agnostic, non religious] club tonight. Oops. President was not impressed… was *really* not impressed when I retorted wtih "yeah well your heirarchial group is stupid.")

So, I’m just going to do a bit of a linky link round up then I’m going to bed, because I have reset my alarm to go off at 7:41 again for tomorrow, and I actually need to get up this time. I skip my 8:30 am class all the time.

E.O Wilson does an interview with Grist Magazine about his religious experiences and environmentalism and all that jazz. Speaking of interviews, tomorrow around this time I will be posting an interview that I did with Mr. Levy today. …Its taking me forever to edit it because we both say "um" so often, and we got in an argument at the end of it that I want to 1/2 use, but I can’t use all of it because we’re jerky to each other. Stupid Alon.

Amanda posts about Bush lovin’ all them fellow yankees to death, and links to a really really interesting post by Lindsay. Aww. Sometimes, I really don’t want to move to America.

Jessica, rightfully so, gets pissy about this article. I had my doubts about third wave feminism for a while… but I’m starting to see the good behind… most of it. It’s a tricky ‘wave’ but whatever. People need to stop trying to put labels on things and just lets us have goddamn abortions.

I think I really give off the impression that I read the same 3 or 4 blogs every day, when really… I never ever link to the one I read the most… but I will today. Kos did an interesting post on Doolittle today. And actually his midday open thread from today is probably the best one thats been posted in a while. One that was posted, not by Kos… but at daily kos, is a really good read - Do We Need An Atheists’ Right Movement? Good schtuff.

I think McBoing is my favorite poster at punkass. (I’m quite the fan of Marc aswell, it’s a toss up.) I liked this post from him today, (well actually this is the post…) Have I ever done my celebrity rant on here before? I don’t think so. I’ll get around to it eventually. It’s midly entertaining. Modonna (who says her adoption was legal, dammit!) is one of my favorites to attack… (well, post-awesome feminist stage).

It’s being blogged about everywhere, but I’ve decided that I like the post at Feministe the most about it. Yes, she was asked to remove her veil, yes that was stupid, yes religion is stupid. Grr.

Ahh, and there is SO MUCH NEWS. I’ll just post the one article… its actually the only one that I read all the way through. but trust me… there is SO MUCH NEWS!! Anyway - the Tigers are agreeing to talks, and I think thats nice. …I also think I’m overtired because I seem to think it’ll help the probelms in Sri Lanka.

And finally, I remember a time when I used to actually care about hockey. Now I don’t, however, I do have this horrible heart sinking feeling when I see Peter Forsbergs team lose 9-1 against Buffalo. Tragic… ‘k, maybe I still care a little. But I have less time and a lack of TV this year. (Forsberg apparently weighs 4 more lbs this year btw… I …hate that I know that. And he’s only gotten 2 goals this year. Seriously Peter. You used to be good.)

*Update* Tamil Tigers… d’oh.
