There are four kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, statistics, and history. ~ reality leaves a lot to the imagination ~ strong evidence for de-evolution is the popularity of @MattWalshBlog ~ ‏@LizHackett You’re an adult. Stop hashtagging full sentences on Facebook. ~ @bitchywaiter Oh, no. It looks as if Olive Garden has banned me from their page… ~ Our legal system is not designed to bring out the truth. This is a misconception. It is people playing their roles in persueing what their best interests are ~ A gimmick to get your attention. Actually, GSV is a spinoff of the faeries. After the gatherings at Running Water ran their course, some people decided to have a “conference” at a facility with indoor plumbing. 26 years later, GSV is going strong. The “fall conference” is a bit pricier than faerie gatherings, and is more structured. Hence, the whimsical nickname, “Republican Faeries.” The local potlucks, by a legally separate group, are drug, alcohol, and admission charge free. (Faeries is now accepted as a real word by spell check.) ~ Note to the Russian hacker sending spam friend requests: Rebacca Ane Wthite is not a plausible name. ~ I think many artists are not nice people ~ Give poppers to the top and it is an anti rape agent. ~ If you are going to say something, please think first. Loud, ill informed rhetoric is part of the problem. ~ When are are manipulated into saying foolish things, you choose the side of the oppressor. ~ Stay connected and learn new ways to fight for social justice. ~ The body was found at 4:57 am. The park closes at 1 am. ~ The police said it was “consistent” with a suicide, and that it was under investigation. The body was found at 4:57 am. The park is closed at 1am, which would account for nobody seeing it. ~ You retweeted this:”Body of Black man found in Piedmont Park where the KKK were handing out flyers declared “suicide” When was the KKK passing out flyers? Were they wearing white sheets? What did the flyers say? Where did they stand? How many were there? I strongly suspect this is a lie.This is another twittter comment:”A MAN HAS BEEN LYNCHED IN A POPULAR KKK MEETUP AREA & THEY WANNA SAY IT WAS A SUICIDE?” I don’t believe any of this. With two police related killings in the last two days, passions are inflamed right now. Spreading nonsense like this post is going to make things worse. ~ Do you have any evidence that the KKK was handing out flyers in the park on wednesday? Bear in mind, this was a weekday, and there were severe thunderstorms in the area. Why are you spreading inflammatory rumors without any evidence? ~ does being an asshole include spreading outlandish rumors about KKK activity in Piedmont Park? ~ 11Alive does not typically report on suicides but given the public location and interest in the story, we made the decision to share what information we could find. ~ If you are manipulated into saying, or doing, foolish things, then you choose the side of the oppressor. ~ @AryehCW Extrajudicial ideological violence never redounds to the benefit of the perpetrators, yet stupid, violent men keeping trying. ~ I wrote a blog post yesterday. A man was found, hanging from a rope. Rumors started to spread about KKK activity in the area. Those who are familiar with Piedmont Park, in Atlanta GA, find rumors like this to be ridiculous. The fact that these rumors are readily believed by many is troubling. If you are going to say something, it should be the truth. It should make the situation better. The ego boost that many people get from inflaming passions is to be avoided. ~ “Maybe that famous person did not say it, but it sounds like something he would have said” ~ @EsotericCD I can’t emphasize enough how dumb it is for both sides to cherrypick each other’s fringe nutjobs for Bad Tweets. ~ Jesus is a source of misery in my life. I want nothing to do with him. ~ ‏@WernerTwertzog Coffee should not include whipped cream or sweet syrups. It should be a black, bitter foretaste of what we must face before the day is over. ~ fascism comes from Latin fascis bundle/fashion comes from Anglo-French façun, ~ Extrajudicial ideological violence never redounds to the benefit of the perpetrators, yet stupid, violent men keeping trying. ~ No, it is STILL not OK to spend money at Chick-fil-A. Support of this hateful organization is whoring yourself out to the enemy for a piece of fucking chicken. If you do, you should be ashamed of yourself.It’s Boycott Time: Chick-fil-A Just Dropped A BOMBSHELL On ‘Black Lives Matter’ That Is Just…It’s not too often a large company like Chick-fil-A gets involved in a controversial topic, but they have thrown themselves right smack in the middle of the #Black Lives… ~ If you are going to try to influence people, first take the time to build trust and mutual respect. ~ #goddesssofat ~ @lyz_estrada EXCLUSIVE!!!
