Everyday is a good day. My sympathies and prayers go out to all involved but I just wish the news would focus more on good stories.

They focus on all the stuff that keep us depressed. Not saying these stories aren't important.

Unfortunately, nobody would watch. It's not about news or the truth, it's about ratings, pure and simple.

KHOU keeps saying the shooter had a photo with Nazi paraphernalia. Here's the photo in question:



The Media continues to suck.

No love for the couple that tortured their kids? Pouring hot water on them, waterboarding, shooting with a crossbow, slapping and duct taping an infants mouth closed to get it to stop crying?

At this point you'd might as well just stay up and crash in the morning.

But that also looks like a hammer and sickle on the right collar.

Yep, the Iron Cross is not necessarily a "Nazi" symbol. Its history far predates the Nazi regime and it's still used in the heraldry of the Bundeswehr and in the roundel of the Luftwaffe today, if anything it's one of the few remaining PC symbols of Germany. To call it "Neo-Nazi" is just fricking retarded and repeating it as if it's some kind of insight in to the guy's motivations or political thoughts is both lazy and dishonest when there's a hammer and sickle pin in the photo as well.

Sensationalist, lying media.

Radicalized by Roger Moore. James Bond is alt-right. Ban all British Films.

The world can quite often be a horrible place.

And it can be a very wonderful place as well. V&S has a new niece. So while things might suck in some places, in our little corner of the internet we aren't having a bad couple of days here.

It was a turn of phrase to say that these things were bad, lot of people are getting hung up on that.
