– The Callus
You’re going to have to unpack this statement, because to me this seems hugely unlikely. Civil conflict within Greece, sure. German tanks rolling across Europe in the summer of 2016? Not going to happen.

Probs not German, anyway - they’re too complacent now, and who...

A state law requiring the university to use its longtime nickname and logo, which shows the profile of an...

Washington State to Legalize Same-Sex Marriage →
OLYMPIA — Legislation legalizing gay marriage is on its way to the governor after passing the state House by a 55-43 vote.
Gov. Chris Gregoire, who supports the measure and watched as lawmakers voted, has five days to sign it after the bill arrives. She hasn’t set a date yet.
There was never any doubt the legislation would be approved in the House. More than 50 lawmakers announced...

minnpost:
We’ve created two interactive tables: one of donations from marriage ban opponents, one of the supporter donations.
You’ll see a huge discrepancy in the financial disclosure from the supporters of the ban. Read more about it here.

Who the fuck voted Republican in Red Lake?!
I mean, really…?!
(Although it actually does sort of make sense that 13 people would caucus for Paul. The anti-federal government shtick does play well with some Natives for obvious reasons.)
Rick Santorum projected to win Missouri!!
Even though its delegates are bound to no candidate, so his win is meaningless!

Gingrich was at the Ramada to hookup with one of his new mistresses.
When you marry your mistress, you create a job opening.

God damnit, gym. All I want right now is booze and pasta.
Is there ever a point where you stop wanting booze and slovenly junk food after the gym? Because even after months and months of dedication, I have not reached that point. Fuck.
Usually after the gym, I just want to eat an entire chicken.
Although right now I’m drinking a margarita, if that...
Most Germans want Greece to quit euro: poll →
jakke:
The Emnid poll said 53 percent of Germans surveyed thought Greece should return to its former currency, the drachma, while only 34 percent felt it should keep the euro.
Euro zone ministers had hoped to meet this coming Monday to finalize the second Greek bailout, which must be in place by mid-March to prevent a chaotic default, but the meeting was postponed because of reluctance in...
Ugh, so Jealy.
Ron Paul is going to be at the Minneapolis Convention Center at 7pm tonight, and Newt Gingrich is going to be at the MSP Ramada at 730pm.
I don’t know who I’d want to troll more.
DAMN YOU NEBRASKA.
WHY DID YOU (family) SUCK ME BACK HERE FOR THE YEAR?!
