I’m sure even Fox’s producers gave Brian Kilmeade a slap across the face after he said something as utterly stupid as:

We are — we keep marrying other species and other ethnics and other … See, the problem is the Swedes have pure genes. Because they marry other Swedes …. Fins marry other Fins, so they have a pure society.

This guy killed himself after killing another young woman (his girlfriend?) on Good Friday.

That sucks, because I know this does not represent Christians in general. Anthony Powell was in dire need of psychological help, and I don’t know why it didn’t come to him sooner.

I’m taking a quick break from studies to share a few interesting links I came across in the past bit.

• You can’t go wrong with these two xkcd comics.

• Scary stuff: Germany joins China in censoring WikiLeaks.org http://wikileaks.org/wiki/Germany_muzzles_WikiLeaks

• What the world will look like in 250 million years.

• Another awesome article by Matt Good on police use of tazers

• Roger Ebert on crazy lying conservatives like Bill O’Reilly

• In the same light, here’s a video of a meeting of Glenn Beck fans on the current state of the USA. Note the speech starting at 2:00, listen for his telling people to get their kids out of college 4:40, and for the off-camera screaming of “burn the books” at 4:48. Even the cameraman is bewildered:

In this really awkward interview on CBC’s “Q”, Ghomeshi basically plays therapist to Billy Bob Thornton, who freaks out on air because he mentioned his acting career in the intro. He kept his cool the whole time and played it like a pro. This is a stunning clip!

I think I’m never going to watch a Thornton movie ever again, nor listen to his music. It’s not like he’ll miss it though. I’m just potatoes without the gravy because I don’t “throw stuff” at a concert =).

I can’t believe this is my first Rush Limbaugh rant! Just listen to this asshole take a call from another Republican. Credit due to Media Matters.
