Wow. Despite an endless succession of wonky and depressing videos I somehow managed to get 400 subscribers. People must have a higher pain threshold than I thought.

Seriously, though. I am very proud to have subscribers from all over the world. You honor me with your attention and I strive to be worthy of it.

If you like my take on things, I would suggest you check out a few of the people who have informed and inspired me in my favorites box. I heartily suggest Dahr Jamail for starters.

BTW, I really mean it about the name - I think the essence of a robust democracy is spirited debate. If that means an unpleasant, nasty debate about shit we'd rather not think about, then I say so be it. Tidyness is not a democratic principle. Be prepared to defend your position or change it. I am.
