nephir: All I need (Default)
and they scare me -- they *really really* scare me.

I understand some of the mid-wests voting trends, kinda. Sparsely populated, mainly of caucasian descent, they are terrified of anything different -- but really folks -- one would think that the more densely populated and diverse communities along both coasts would vote using their brains now wouldn't you?!?

sigh. Once again I am destroyed by my country's political machine.

Now looking for a job that is outsourced to a pagan/queer/bi-friendly/alternative friendly country.

Canada, are you listening?
Perhaps India -- I could get behind living in a pagan country.
Scandanavia? They are frank and upfront about sexual education and drugs, rather than hiding behind rhetoric and fiction. I can deal with that.

Welcome to the Fourth Reich. Kiss your civil liberties and rights goodbye as the Schrub no longer has to maintain a moderatly midline face for his supporters. Afterall, he cannot become elected again, unless he tries to have the laws changed. (If it happens, I refuse to be held accountable, I'm just a Cassandra*).

*For those who don't know, Cassandra was the daughter of Priam. She was a prophetess of doom. Today calling someone a Cassandra means calling them a prophet of doom. She got her power from Apollo, cuz he hada thing for her. But when she accepted his gift but not his love, he cursed her that her prophesies would never convince anyone. Her name meant "She who entagles men."
