Dolphins regularly beat the living hell out of/torture to death non-threatening porpoises and sometimes even their own kin..for no clear reason. As they’ve become more used to human interaction, these killings are being seen for the first time. Before now we only just discovered the corpses (which are increasing in number).

Watching the films, Aberdeen marina biologist Dr Ben Wilson explains yet another shocking phenomenon - that the dolphins use their incredible ultra sound abilities to home in on the vital organs of their victims that will cause most damage[…] And the attacks are sustained, sometimes up to 30 minutes.

The commonality in the attacks is that all the victims are small in size, which means killer dolphins are picking fights with babies and not animals that could possibly fight back. Fuck dolphins.

The world’s largest collection of themed jacuzzi suites. I already suggested Jen and Ali take the Medieval Times room but there are plenty more to choose from. Housed in what looks like an old warehouse (NONE of the rooms have windows) or the set from the failed sequel ‘Silence of the Lamb’s: Buffalo Bill’s Revenge’ this motel has the themed room for you and your boo this Valentine’s Day. Every room comes with its own tub, toilets down the hall. It’s hard to choose a favorite; Cesar’s (sic) Room looks tempting but the Heart to Heart room has a phone.

So McCain backed away from his previous consistent opinion that DADT should be up to military leaders, leaders who are now in support of repealing it. Not a surprise that he’d do this as he’s getting competition in Arizona and he lost big time in the election last year, the winner of which he’s going to oppose no matter what the issue. My question is, why is no one challenging them to be specific with why exactly gays pose a threat? Conservatives are either being vague about it:

“At this moment of immense hardship for our armed services, we should not be seeking to overturn the ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ policy,” [McCain] said bluntly, before describing it as “imperfect but effective.” -WaPo

Effective with what??

Or just fucking ridiculous:

“In my opinion,” [Chambliss] said, “the presence in the armed forces of persons who demonstrate a propensity or intent to engage in homosexual acts would very likely create an unacceptable risk to those high standards.” -TPM

He went on to include some risks: alcohol use, adultery and body art. Shouldn’t they be forced to include research into why this would result from being around homos? There’s a missing step here, at the very least they should be made to say out loud how homo behavior will negatively affect the troops. Like, are we going to seduce them with our homo charms and force them to enter a life of non-stop barracks sex because we always be cruising for same-sex booty? Did they find out turning every soldier gay was #4 on the gay agenda? Of course, women serve in the military too but you don’t see them getting all bothered about their vulnerability to sexual harassment..instead they oppose prohibiting contracted companies from forcing rape victims to stay out of criminal court without calling for ways to stop sexual abuse in the military. I really want them to say it for the record if they’re going to accuse a large group of people of something so serious that our mere presence will diminish the country’s protection from terrorists. Make them say it and make sure they know they’ll be on the record forever so everyone can see how far some people will go to hate on difference. I know it’s not a court of law, but there must be some sort of standard and someone like, I don’t know, the President who called for the repeal in his SOTU, should be calling them out every time they pop up to ensure these morons don’t hijack the debate so that everyone’s arguing over HIV rates in gay men or how much lesbians love piercings and tattoos.

Once upon a time there was a dude who went undercover as a pimp to try and ruin ACORN’s reputation by offering to sell women to someone who worked for ACORN, or something like that. It was dumb. What’s even dumber is that the guy just got arrested for trying to tap a Senator’s phone, hijinks ensue:

‘When Flanagan and Basel entered the office, they told the staffer they were there to fix phone problems. At that time, the staffer, referred to only as Witness 1 in the affidavit, observed O’Keefe positioning his cell phone in his hand to videotape the operation. O’Keefe later admitted to agents that he recorded the event.’

This reminds me of the scene in Arrested Development where Mr. Show breaks into Elaine Benes’ house and sneaks around while she’s there watching him because he thinks she’s blind.

Ted Haggard went on Oprah AGAIN with his wife (she has a new book out) to explain how he builds trust back. With his followers his strategy is to Tweet and Facebook where he is at all times. With his wife he calls her once he gets to the place he is going and calls when he leaves it, ALWAYS. Also, after much therapy he has not had one homosexual urge and there is ‘lots of evidence’ of his heterosexuality. This caged bird is going to explode with song one day.

Australia, with help from the Christian right, created a board full of virgins and 5 year olds to determine if female ejaculation is a real thing and concluded that instead it’s really just icky pee pee:

The Classification Board have determined that female ejaculation is not a real event and therefore all issue from a women’s vagina is piss and therefore covered under the parameters in the Guidelines for ‘golden showers’. This means that if the shower happens to land on the body or in the mouth it is determined to be an offensive fetish and goes RC [refused classification/banned].

In honor of this, be sure to watch a squirting video today and then try to send it to an Australian friend you may have. Preferably the president or someone like that.

Some booked on ships scheduled to stop at Labadee are afraid that desperate people might breach the resort’s 12ft high fences to get food and drink, but others seemed determined to enjoy their holiday.”I’ll be there on Tuesday and I plan on enjoying my zip line excursion as well as the time on the beach,” said one.

Guuuuuuuuuuuh. via Ash
