Bush declares National Sanctity of Human Life Day. Bush can declare as many national days as he likes, but that is in no way going to bully his opponents into oblivion. Anyways, I don't like the wording--"Sanctity of Human Life"--because it implies all human life and not just that of fetuses. This would also mean the lives of criminals, political prisoners and the like. It would have been more succinct and accurate to call it "National Anti-Abortion Day", but I suppose that would have been too obvious.

I don't fit into my generation. "I look around me sometimes and wonder 'How did all these idiots end up around me?' I see the way people my age generally relate to each other, and live their lives, and I just don't get it. It's when I try to fit in that I feel out of my body, out of my element, practically out of my mind. I'm not sure where I fit exactly. But it's definitely not here." Could be a new tagline. I certainly feel that way at times. But maybe because I don't have a "life".

World Values Survey Overview in Figures. (via Ascription is an anathema to any enthusiasm) There's something completely addictive about looking at charts with real world data. Depressing.

Nazi Wisdom. Hmm...
