This was actually posted as a link on BoingBoing today, so normally I’d credit them, but I was on this Chad Vader shit within 20 minutes of the first upload, so I’m keeping the credit. But I’ll give them the link cuz I’m sweet like that, yo.

Bullish on Bloodshed

But how can the market be up when everyone's at Bohemian Grove?

From Jesus’ General

I really don’t understand how the market can be up when everyone’s at Bohemian Grove.

And here is an article from the Guardian about the War on Children:

It’s weird, the things that make you feel better in the south of Lebanon, but seven dead instead of 40 gave me a sense of relief.

Then another child was pulled from under the rubble, and another followed, and then another. You go a little crazy when you see little body after little body coming up out of the ground. I looked around me and all I could see in the house was the detritus of their short lives – big plastic bags filled with clothes, milk cans, plastic toys and a baby carriage.

As we walked, jumping from one boulder to the other, Ali said: “My father and mother went with my other brothers and sisters to another town. They said they will come and get me when the bombs stop.”

In the scorching sunshine above, Israeli jets were flying, their sound mixed with that of the drones. Suddenly a thud came from the hills and Ali froze. “They are going to bomb again!” He started to cry. “Why are the Israelis hitting us? Do they hate us? My cousin Mahmoud called me on the phone and he told me that the nuclear bombs are really big. Are they as big as these rockets?” It’s hard to convey quite how shocked, perhaps quite literally shell-shocked – this little boy was. He was almost delusional.

Suri??? Is that you?The Manolo, he does not shy away from the controversy. Superfantastic!

She has got the Bette Davis eyes! he says.

Kind of him, really. Forget Sharia law, anyone who put those colours together should be flogged!

And so should many of his commenters, who don’t seem to understand that it’s a fashion show for hijabs, habayas, or whatever you want to call them. That we’re not going to see rubber Alaias is a given here. The question is what can you do with what you’re allowed, which is the great political question of the age in all countries, and the fact is that most of these outfits are shiteous, even in context.
