Justice Scalia pwned

on the subject of privacy. I am deeply amused.

When the veneer wears thin

Byron York:

On his 100th day in office, Barack Obama enjoys high job approval ratings, no matter what poll you consult. But if a new survey by the New York Times is accurate, the president and some of his policies are significantly less popular with white Americans than with black Americans, and his sky-high ratings among African-Americans make some of his positions appear a bit more popular overall than they actually are.

Yes, the illusory black people are falsely inflating Obama's popularity rating.

I tried to do the "10 things you should know about me" meme...

... but I could only think of seven things, and six of them were really boring.

So, you know, just -- make something up.

So Chrysler is declaring bankruptcy

because that's better than caps on executive compensation. The system for corporate governance is so. fucking. broken.

Bright side, Ken "I lie to shareholders like a great big lying thing that lies" Lewis is out as Chair of Bank of America. He's now only a member of the Board of Directors, president and CEO.

And if you needed any further proof that America's banks are pure evil...

...look no further.

*shudder*

Really stupid question

For those of you who have been paying more attention to Dreamwidth policies than I have ... once open beta starts, I don't have to, like, do anything, right? I mean, I can buy a paid account, but I can also just continue on as is, yes, and ignore everything else? Because I plan to figure out paid accounts eventually and import from LJ and everything, but I don't have time right now.

Thanks.

Edit: My stupid question is answered. I can be lazy and carry on.
