Werk related TRAUMA aka I get by with a little help from my freinds [May. 14th, 2009|10:44 am]
[Tags|]

So I have a job. Part of that job involves seeing if the porn filters work, which means looking at some rather dodgy sites...


[DFG] hey all
[DFG] bleh I'm really hating the "is it porn" task
[DFG] I feel like I've been wading through a sewer
[Necomancer] Just say yes
[DFG] the id vortex is just not a pretty place at all
* Tricia shoots Neco in the knees
[DFG] oh and fyi, NEVER EVER view a video called spankwire, apparently its genital mutilation ].[
* DFG covers her eyes and whimpers a bit
[Tricia] ...
* Necomancer offers DFG some brain bleach
[DFG] the one I don't really want to look at is the search from grandpa teen
[DFG] oh i didn't have to actually see this thing
[DFG] thanks neco
[DFG] men in straight porn are generally not that attractive, something from a search of grandpa teen....
* DFG looks at three of the pages
[DFG] bleh
[DFG] ew
[DFG] AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
[DFG] hahahahah
[DFG] I'll take that brain bleach now, k tkx
* Tricia is now known as Tricia[sleep]
[DFG] night hon
* Necomancer offers DFG a lifetime supply
[DFG] and to add to cognitive dissonance, nine were skanky porn sites, and this was the tenth link http://www.nbc4i.com/cmh/news/crime/article/grandpa_who_defended_teen_dies_homicide_18_in_2009/14276/
[Necomancer] Ow. Thats like twisting a knife.
[DFG] well it's nice to know that the whole world isn't a giant ball of ewww
[DFG] thanks for listening to me vent btw
[DFG] another half hour, another 6.75
[Necomancer] Not bad pay
[DFG] true
[DFG] but still, nekkid old men AND objectified women
[DFG] EWWWWWWWWWWW

Fun with raising children. [May. 8th, 2009|09:53 am]
So our 14 year old son comes out with the complaint that some of the kids are acting "gay". He won't explain to us what he means by that so time to educate.

Without saying why I'm doing this, I pull up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHKstnzJ2xE it's George Takei talking about the Japanese internment. Then some video of Billie Jean King playing tennis.

He's next to me playing games on his computer.

We talk, I explain why I played this, that mr takei and ms king are gay, so again what did he mean by acting gay, he's trying to back out of what he sees as an unpleasant discussion. the usual "IKNOWIKNOW..." I told him "I heard you sounding uneducated, so I decided you were in need of some education!"

I'm still not sure, but from what he said I guess the other boys are acting stereotypically "gay" swishy, etc.

I also played that funny bit that Takei did on homophobia. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AScqvJb9UsQ

I've never seen it all the way through, I find it too embarrassing, so when our son started complaining I closed the window

I think I'll put that in the win column for parenting on my part, god knows those moments are few and far between for me.

Standing There With a Truncheon To Protect That Which Is Not In Danger [Oct. 30th, 2008|01:51 pm]
Copy this sentence into your livejournal if you're in a heterosexual marriage/relationship (or if you think you might be someday), and you don't want it "protected" by the bigots who think that gay marriage hurts it somehow.

I'm not so sure about this one... [Oct. 23rd, 2008|09:16 am]

Your result for What Your Taste in Art Says About You Test...

Simple, Progressive, and Sensual

16 Ukiyo-e, 6 Islamic, 4 Impressionist, -11 Cubist, -17 Abstract and 0 Renaissance!

Ukiyo-e (浮世絵, Ukiyo-e), "pictures of the floating world", is a genre of Japaneseand paintings produced between the 17th and the 20th centuries. it mostly featured landscapes, historic tales, theatre, and pleasure. Ukiyo is a rather impetuous urban culture that has bloomed in popularity. Although the Japanese were more strict and had many prohibitions it did not affect the rising merchant class and therefore became a floating art form that did not bind itself to the normal ideals of society.


People that chose Ukiyo-e art tend to be more simplistic yet elegant. They don't care much about new style but are comfortable in creating their own. They like the idea of living for the moment and enjoy giving and receiving pleasure. They may be more agreeable than other people and do not like to argue. They do not mind following traditions but are not afraid to move forward to experience other ideas in life. They tend to enjoy nature and the outdoors. They do not mind being more adventurous in their sexual experiences. They enjoy being popular and like being noticed. They have their own unique style of dress and of presenting themselves. They may also tend to be more business oriented or at the very least interested in money making adventures. They might make good entrepreneurs. They are progressive and adaptable.

Knowlege is Power! [Oct. 17th, 2008|12:18 am]
Stolen from everyone:

The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious but you have no idea about. Ask away.

Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you!

Supreme Court cases meme! [Oct. 2nd, 2008|08:29 am]
from http://beadattitude.livejournal.com/435659.html and modified by http://bookishwench.livejournal.com/

"As was demonstrated in an interview with Katie Couric, [snip] Palin was unable to name any supreme court case that she disagreed with other than Roe v. Wade. Which I suppose would be foremost on her mind, given the whole reproductive debacle that is her abstinence policy and how she charged for rape kits and all. I just love when other people judge other people's uterii. uteruses. baby growers.

The Rules: Post info about ONE Supreme Court decision, modern or historic, to your lj. (Any decision, as long as it's not Roe v. Wade.) For those who see this on your f-list, take the meme to your OWN lj to spread the fun. "

Loving v. Virginia!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loving_v._Virginia

A "landmark civil rights case in which the United States Supreme Court declared Virginia's anti-miscegenation statute, the "Racial Integrity Act of 1924", unconstitutional, thereby overturning Pace v. Alabama (1883) and ending all race-based legal restrictions on marriage in the United States."

Bayard Rustin [Sep. 9th, 2008|10:18 am]
Watching this "Brother Outsider: The Life of Bayard Rustin: Riveting Portrait of Forgotten Civil Rights Pioneer and Strategist "

http://www.logoonline.com/shows/dyn/brother_outsider/about.jhtml

"Brother Outsider captures the full extent of Rustin's complex, 60-year career as an activist. The film contains rare archival footage, including impassioned debates between Rustin and Malcolm X as well as Rustin and Stokely Carmichael. In later years, Rustin continued to champion human rights--including gay rights--in campaigns around the globe. As King's aide and former U.N. ambassador Andrew Young recalls in the film, "His commitment to justice was always very strong and very consistent. It was easier when he had allies like Martin Luther King and A. Philip Randolph, but when they were gone, he didn't stop.""

Watch it if you can.

The Edmund Fitzgerald [Jun. 15th, 2008|07:14 pm]
Wanted to listen to the song by lightfoot.

Clicked on this cover: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vN8LvrMlFGA

I love this gal. To me she's obviously female just as soon as she starts singing, but she has short hair and doesn't scream female or male right off the bat.

So she has this in the info box.

" I AM A GIRL!!! For those of you who are curious, I sing it higher than Gordon because I am a girl so please don't comment that I have a "girly" voice....I know I do. Thanks for your understanding."

Yay!

Then the original: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_8s2zsNhSM

But what got me were these two comments.

"thebestman200699 (1 day ago)
have you ever been to the north shores of lake superior? if not you gotta see it, wonderful, it was even more beautiful back when my family visited there in the sixties. i was about 6 years old then. this is a very beautiful song and video, but i wonder just how much more magnificent it was before the white man commercialized it. what was it like before we took this land from the Indians? anyways enjoyed this video very much, always have and will. go see Duluth when you have a chance! "

followed by
"ronnebram (1 day ago)
Spent three years working as an officer on the Great Lakes. Your comment is a pathetic romantization of a Lake Superior. Yes, it is beautiful but never wonder about "what it was like" before we white men "took it"...sister, you wouldn't driving SUVs and living in nice homes if we had not settled this god forsaken wilderness, tamed it, and made it bountiful."


Wow, from idealized fluff to.... well more idealized fluff

BOTH OF YOU ARE WRONG! There I said it. I feel so much better. And well they kind of missed something. Y'all and I might feel all this emotions, but nature doesn't CARE ABOUT YOU. It just is and god help us if we get in it's way.

We are Unitarian Jihad. [May. 11th, 2008|12:09 am]

My Unitarian Jihad Name is: Sister Boot Knife of Sweet Reason.


Get yours.



It's an oldie, by web standards, but a goodie. Based on "...the first communique from a group calling itself Unitarian Jihad." in 2005. And shared to us by by Jon Carrol.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2005/04/08/DDG27BCFLG1.DTL

"We are Unitarian Jihad. We are everywhere. We have not been born again, nor have we sworn a blood oath. We do not think that God cares what we read, what we eat or whom we sleep with. Brother Neutron Bomb of Serenity notes for the record that he does not have a moral code but is nevertheless a good person, and Unexalted Leader Garrote of Forgiveness stipulates that Brother Neutron Bomb of Serenity is a good person, and this is to be reflected in the minutes."

The Part that I STILL don't Understand [Mar. 24th, 2008|03:55 am]
How are people taken in by these things???

"Dear Friend,
 
Greetings!.

Please forgive this unusual way of contacting you as it was borne out of my basic search for a competent, dependable and honest fellow who will help me execute the below detailed transaction.I expect that this information be accorded utmost confidentiality and secrecy. I am JT.Duke working in the Audit Department of a Bank in Africa. Although the society today is so unpredictable that the good and the bad live side by side coupled with the monumental hype and crap of the abuse of the Internet by some unscrupulous persons in the recent times, thereby making it extremely difficult for genuine and legitimate business class persons to get attention and recognition, yet i decided to contact you after a careful thought and also going the way of my instincts, believing that you may be capable of handling this business transaction which i explained below;

In my department,i discovered an abandoned sum of $14.5m US dollars (Fourteen million, five hundred thousand US dollars) in an account that belong to one of our foreign customers who died alongside with his entire family in a plane crash that occurred in 2003. Since we received information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless somebody applies as next of kin or relation to the deceased as enshrined in our banking guidelines, but unfortunately, we discovered that his supposed next of kin (his son and wife) died alongside with him in the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claims. Hence, i decided to make this business proposal and release the money to you as the named guardian by the deceased customer (I want to present you as the guardian) to the deceased customer for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and i don't want this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bills.
 
The Banking law and guidelines here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after five years, the money will be transferred into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund.The request of a foreigner as the named guardian in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and an indigene cannot stand as a guardian or next of kin to a foreigner. I have therefore decided that 30% of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 5% will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business and 65% would be for me. Thereafter, i shall visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated. Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to your account as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as the named guardian of the deceased customer. So upon receipt of your response,i will furnish you with more details on how to commence with this transaction. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is 100% risk-free and that you should not entertain any fear as all required arrangements for the transfer of the fund shall be worked out once we commence.

Please note that i have decided to withhold the full details of this project because of my office and also to make sure that i would be dealing with the right person.I would be highly obliged to hear from you so that I can give you full details and identification of myself and my contact details.

Please reply me through my private email address thus:john.duke00004@yahoo.com

Yours faithfully,
MR.JT. DUKE.
Audit Department,"
