Let's Make Dzhokhar Tsarnaev An Idol, So He Can Have Fangirls

Our hearts go out to the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing, and our thoughts are always with them and their families. The cover story we are publishing this week falls within the traditions of journalism and Rolling Stone’s long-standing commitment to serious and thoughtful coverage of the most important political and cultural issues of our day. The fact that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is young, and in the same age group as many of our readers, makes it all the more important for us to examine the complexities of this issue and gain a more complete understanding of how a tragedy like this happens. –THE EDITORS

Well okay, so then why didn't you put James Holmes on the cover, he is around the same age as your target age readers.
And the fact that the Rolling Stones cover featuring Tsarnaev is deemed to be "sexy" is even worse. You see there is something in the psychology of some females (not all, but some) that makes them become hoplessly infatuated with people who have done truly terrible things, so long as those monsters don't look half bad. Dzhokhar looks like he could be part of a boy band. Some think he is innocent, some don't care either way. All of them are bat shit crazy and are in need of some intense therapy.
Like this girl, named Alisha, she's a waitress, and she's getting a Tsarnaev quote tattooed on her forearm. How dumb can you get? I hope all these people are just trolling. But probably they aren't

Mental Disorders In Winnie the Pooh

Eating disorders are conditions defined by abnormal eating habits that may involve either insufficient or excessive food intake to the detriment of an individual's physical and mental health. Pooh is constantly looking for honey, and he goes completely out of his way to get it. Pooh could also be characterized as a substance abuser.

Piglet could be characterized as having general anxiety disorder. Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is an anxiety disorder that is characterized by excessive, uncontrollable and often irrational worry about everyday things that is disproportionate to the actual source of worry.   Individuals often exhibit a variety of physical symptoms, including fatigue, fidgeting,  muscle tension, muscle aches, difficulty concentrating, trembling, twitching, irritability, agitation, sweating, restlessness,and inability to fully control the anxiety. Piglet is consistently terrified of everything.


Tigger could be characterized as having ADHD. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder  is a psychiatric disorder or neurobehavioral disorder characterized by significant difficulties either of inattention and/or hyperactivity and impulsiveness.

The Vomit Artist: Probably The Worst Idea I've Ever Seen

So Millie Brown is known as the vomit artist. She drinks colored milk and then jams two fingers down her throat, to regurgitate the colored milk on a canvas. Brown's work is called "Nexus Vomitus," About her art, Brown says: "I drink colored milk — the process is not painful but after several hours of vomiting it can take its toll, which is why I limit the number of colors I use. … The use of canvas is a natural progression from my early performances. I started puking down myself in various outfits, but wanted more longevity from the end result."

Does nobody get that, by shoving two fingers down her throat and calling it art, she is encouraging people to be bulimic. Basically she is saying "Here Kids! Jam two fingers down your throat and you can create art and be skinny all at the same time!"

Bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder characterized by binge eating and purging, or consuming a large amount of food in a short amount of time followed by an attempt to rid oneself of the food consumed (purging), typically by vomiting, taking a laxative, diuretic, or stimulant, and/or excessive exercise, because of an extensive concern for body weight.

Imagine if someone cut themselves and it was recognized as art. We'd have a bunch of people creating permanent scars on their body for the sake of art...oh wait we already have that. It's called scarification modification.

Does anybody get what I'm trying to say here??

Beautiful isn't it?

You Aren't Stuck Unless You Choose To Be

What did you want to be when you were young? A Ballerina? An Astronaut? The President of The United States? A Nobel Peace Prize Winner?
Let me guess, now that you're older, you have "realized" that those dreams are "hopeless." That you're just stuck. Stuck in a monotonous job, in a shitty home life, car is wrecked, spouse decided that they were sick of your sorry ass, bills are late, and money can only stretch so far.
Or you're fresh out of highschool, and you were the popular guy, got all the girls, had the muscles, but didn't have the brains to pass the 8th grade, but the teachers keep barely passing you, just so they didn't have to see your face anymore. Senior year came and went, and *gasp* guess what buddy? Nobody gives a shit that you were top dog in your school, because now you're just another face in the crowd.
But either way you aren't stuck.
In what grade do we stop believing in ourselves. In what grade do we stop believing period. I mean someone has to be a Nobel Peace Prize Winner, someone has to be a Ballerina, so why not us?

A Complaint About The School Education System

What grinds me the most about the school system is that we’re sending kids out into the world who don’t know how to balance a checkbook, don’t know how to apply for a loan, don’t even know how to properly fill out a job application, but because they know the quadratic formula we consider them prepared for the world? With that said, I'll admit even I can see how looking at the equation x -3 = 19 and knowing x =22 can be useful. I'll even say knowing x =7 and y= 8 in a problem like 9x - 6y= 15 can be helpful. But seriously, do we all need to know how to simplify (x-3)(x-3i)??
And the joke is, no one can continue their education unless they do. A student living in California cannot get into a four-year college unless they pass Algebra 2 in high school. A future psychologist can't become a psychologist, a future lawyer can't become a lawyer, and I couldn’t become anything more than a Wal-Mart employee (which I will be damned if I let that become my future place of work, since I know I could win the Nobel Peace Prize if I tried hard enough) unless each of us has a basic understanding of engineering.
Of course, engineers and scientists use this shit all the time, and I applaud them! But they don't take years of theater arts appreciation courses, because a scientist or an engineer doesn't need to know that 'The Phantom of the Opera' was the longest-running Broadway musical of all time.
Get my point?

LGBT T-Shirt Company??

So guys and gals, I'm thinking of starting an LGBT T-Shirt Company I don't have too much more to say about it yet, but I can say it will be sort of like http://point5cctshirtcompany.webs.com/ and I do have a couple of shirt examples. Obviously they wouldn't look so edited.

Fear in Batman Begins

One of the main themes in Batman Begins that I never really thought of  is fear.  Much of the plot is driven by fear, and the movie explores fear in order to show how it affects people’s lives and their motivations.  It also discusses just how, when fear takes hold of a human being, it deconstructs who that person is and swallows them entire.  The mastery of the control of fear is what truly liberates a human being because without fear people can truly do anything they desire.
Two polar opposite effects of fear that eerily mirror each other are that of Batman and Ra’s al Ghul.  Both of them experience great fear during their lives, that fear imposed by similar sources.  That fear comes from the criminal underground.  Batman lost his parents to a criminal and it is heavily implied that Ra’s did as well.  The key is in the difference between their targets.  While Batman utilizes his fear to save the innocent from those criminals, Ra’s utilizes his to attempt to destroy those criminals and the ability to produce more criminals.  This difference says something about the level of control that each has over their fear.  Batman has enough control over his fear to retain a sense of rationality, distinguishing who is the enemy and who is the innocent.  He even has a code that dictates that he cannot murder anybody, something to set him apart from that criminal underworld and ensure that he truly is making a difference.  Ra’s, on the other hand, cannot distinguish the good from the bad.  His fear drives him to attempt destroying the entirety of Gotham City, a completely irrational judgment call fueled by an extreme desire to ensure justice.  Where does any extreme behavior come from?  Extreme Christians fear God and damnation in hell.  Some people starve themselves because they fear gaining weight.  Extremism is born from fear, and Ra’s is different than Batman in that he doesn’t control his fear.  His fear controls him, creating the extremism that births his villainous behavior.
Another way fear is examined in this movie is through the drug that Scarecrow administers to bring out peoples’ deepest fears.  Not even Batman is immune to this fear, despite his control over it.  Even though people control their fears, all to some degree, everybody still fears something.  It may be tucked back in the depths of the mind, but it’s still there.  Nobody is fearless.  Fear would indeed deconstruct a society as the fear drug would have done to Gotham.  Fear breeds violence, and violence is what destroys societies.  Revolution or anarchy, both tear apart the political structure because violence threatens the safety of the populace and the political structure is supposed to ensure that safety.  The fear drug is a way to examine what would happen if fear and panic completely overtook a populace, and the movie argues that it would completely destabilize and destroy a society.
So Batman Begins takes the notion of fear and does a fantastic job showing how it would affect people on a small and large scale.  On a small scale, it can take a person and completely twist their motivation.  On a larger scale, it’s far more effective, taking entire societies and civilizations and reducing them to nothing.  Ra’s is fueled by fear, but we’ll soon see that not all villains share the same motivation.  Some men are far less sympathetic than Ra’s.  Some men just want to watch the world burn.
