"..25 years ago today, Matthew Shepard was beaten, tortured, and left to die near Laramie, Wyoming on the night of October 6th, 1998, just for being gay.

He died six days later October 12th, from severe head injuries. He was just 21 years old.."



The guys that did it said they had been doing meth for days and targeted him as a robbery victim. They didn’t care about him being gay. They were pizzed he had no money to steal.

There has not been a second of my life that I lived in fear of nuclear annihilation. I don't give a sht. If that's what happens, who cares?

Meanwhile, in New Zeeland....


".."Seymour says, taking the 2017 number of more than 10,000 prisoners, and dividing it by the total cost of keeping criminals locked up, amounts to $1.06 each day for New Zealanders."

So, what I'm hearing is that Seymour wants my family's taxes to go up by $740 a year so that we can take misguided teenagers and train them to hardened pros by sending them to Criminal University. Bargain at twice the price!.."

Those bomb prof desks were amazing.

Same here. It was kind of comforting thinking you would die that quickly and easily. Now the powers ( money) that be is killing us slowly.

Ideally, the Earth is a self-regulating system and our species has become an infection. Something will have to happen to return things to a state of balance and it will require the removal of an enormous number people by one or combined catastrophes - famine, climate change, pandemic, war....  Like when you catch a cold. It's all good.

Just an FYI: the entry page doesn’t look right from my end. The link or whatever to the different topics is gone. I have to click on the little box that says who posted last to get here. Aside from that you rock!

I think the worship aspect was the hook.
I don’t understand worship. I was raised by Atheists.
