1:04a - Mock the stupid....? Mock the stupid.
I love Mock_The Stupid.
Alright, so Discovery made a list of the twenty-five greatest Americans.
![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif) shutupanddance is not impressed and says so.
At first all that surfaces is "WTF" and "Oprah sucks" until suddenly, from the shadows of the night, jpop_idol_maomi declares "Rosa Parks shouldn't be on there either."
Oh burn.
Why?
Because she was lazy! *shock*
Because she STOLE the idea from someone else! *amaze*
Because everyone else is retarded! *duh*
As a bonus, Maomi has written a story for us about What Really Happened You Whores
Also, some political!Wank about Clinton can be found here. It was tl;dr but someone uses the word myopic towards the bottom, so it must be ful uh smart yall.
And last but not least, a battle of semantics and rage against democrazy OH NOE.
So, anyways, the most important thing here is that I claim the first Rosa Parks wank. Woo. Rock on.
current mood: Fan-Fucking-tastic
current music: The fucking Smiths. (67 comments |comment on this)

11:33a - Nobody wanks like academics wank!
The Lancet (or at least its Editor, Richard Horton), and the Royal Society have been getting all down-and-dirty lately.
Horton started it, mostly with this:
The Royal Society began as a radical idea—a place to discuss the subversive subject of science and to witness remarkable experiments. It was an “invisible college” of natural philosophers who aimed to improve “Natural Knowledge”. But the Royal Society today is a lazy institution, resting on its historical laurels. Instead of being the intellectual hub of European scientific culture, it has reinvented itself as something far more self-serving and parochial. It is little more than a shrill and superficial cheerleader for British science. Its modern mission is about domestic image rather than international substance.
Well, they're not going to take that lying down!

Theo de Raad throws down about Linux.
Most people are being, you know, sane, but there are wee bits of wank and crazy:
santa's little helper: There is an old maxim: "Divide and conquer" and I'm sure that the enemies of the open source world know it well.
it's so tiny it's almost not there, but the original article amused me so.
