My wife always likes to say, “When someone tells you who they are, believe them.” The takeaway being that when someone admits to you that they’re awful, you should take their word for it. Sometimes people will pop off with some random fact that describes how terrible they are, and then they’ll try to backpedal it or take it back to some extent. You really should just take it at face value, and if you can live with that then fine. If you can’t, perhaps it’s time to reconsider.

I’ve walked away from the Internet almost entirely for nearly five months. I left it, in good conscience, in order to improve my life. I spent so much time and effort interfacing with this amazing invention that connects people. In effect I was able to form connections to others whom exist in social spheres I’m wholly extant from.

I was immediately filled with disgust. “th3j35t3r”, yellow ribbons, Bradley Manning hate, “Ed Snowden IS A TURRURIST!” babble bullshit… These are all opinions held by individuals in the fanbase of “information security”.

It still amazes me these days that there are some out there who are vehement proponents of Barack Obama. I can only attribute to these people that denial is the strongest emotion they’re capable of mustering. Denial is the only thing a person can hold on to when faced with the harsh reality that he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I’m going to gather a few points that blast solid democrats out of the water.
