A Wandering Mind

Hello, I'm Jack.
Often intrigued, mostly introspective, always ironic.
I live in England but my heart and mind are united by an eternal wanderlust
I'm not sure what the future holds but I look forward to finding out.
This blog is a chance for me to meet new people and learn new things, and maybe discover something more about life itself.

Romney used state money to back solar company, which filed for bankruptcy yesterday

soupsoup:

A Bay State solar panel developer that landed a state loan from Mitt Romney when he was Massachusetts governor has gone belly up — a day after the GOP presidential hopeful ripped President Obama’s green-energy investments.

Lowell-based Konarka Technologies announced late yesterday that it filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection and will cease operations, lay off its 85 workers and liquidate.

Photos from Tahrir today, collected from Twitter. The first is a photo tweeted by photographer @RobStothard from a Ultras Ahlawy march in Tahrir tonight. The next is a birds-eye view of Tahrir taken by @adamtawny at about 10:15 PM in Cairo. The third, tweeted by DemocracyNow! correspondent @sharifkouddous earlier today displays a sign reading “We will die again.” The fourth was tweeted by citizen journalist and activist @mar3e and shows a protester holding a sign that translates as “This isn’t the trial of the century, because this is the trial of the zucchini (meaning in Egyptian - this is bullshit).” The final photograph is of a sign reading “The revolution needs a tenacious revolutionary,” and was tweeted by Egyptian @SohaBayoumi.

“ … [T]he austerity drive in Britain isn’t really about debt and deficits at all; it’s about using deficit panic as an excuse to dismantle social programs. And this is, of course, exactly the same thing that has been happening in America.
In fairness to Britain’s conservatives, they aren’t quite as crude as their American counterparts. They don’t rail against the evils of deficits in one breath, then demand huge tax cuts for the wealthy in the next (although the Cameron government has, in fact, significantly cut the top tax rate). And, in general, they seem less determined than America’s right to aid the rich and punish the poor. Still, the direction of policy is the same — and so is the fundamental insincerity of the calls for austerity.

mia-the-wonder-slut: How about I put my hands into a fist and put my fist in your face for that sexist, divisive bullshit? Fuck this “real woman” bullshit. We come in all shapes, sizes, and types.  I especially hate that people pat themselves on the back for posting this crap, like “look at me! I’m so body positive!” No, you’re not. First off, it’s harmful to women who are naturally thin. Second, it’s ableist against people with eating disorders (do you honestly think telling them their body is wrong is the solution, when people telling them their body is wrong was what triggers disordered eating?). Also, curvy =/= fat. People who post shit like this probably still have fatphobia, make fat jokes, and talk about fat people like they’re less than human. Also, my body size has nothing to do with my fuckability. So fuck off.
