“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F.

And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

The Really Amazing Things You Didn't Know About Facebook

 

Every 20 minutes on Facebook there are: 

1 million Links Shared, 
1.5 million Event Invites, 
1.3 million Tagged Photos, 
2 million Status Updates, 
2 million Friend Requests Accepted, 
2.7 million Photos Uploaded, 
2.7 million Messages Sent, 
10.2 Million Comments Made, and

Again, that's every 20 minutes!

And that is just the tip of the iceberg.  Check out the video below to find out what else you didn't know about the site that led you to my blog.

Talk about an out of control monster. It's honestly scary how many people really dive into it. If somehow it does get hacked so anyone can see your info, privacy will be a thing of the past. Who am I kidding. In this technological world we live in privacy is merely an illusion to calm the masses. Knowledge is the greatest power known to man next to Fear and the people behind Facebook now have the ability to be the masters of both. Let us all hope this tool continues to be used for good and nothing else other than that, or the world's end will not be brought on by fire, nuclear war, disease or famine but by the loss of privacy or even failure of technology for that matter. Imagine tomorrow waking up with no cell phones, internet or FACEBOOK, God forbid. In 1980 and years before somehow the human race managed to survive without all three but look at us now. We've tasted all that technology has to offer and if it's ever taken away we will starve. We're all so vulnerable now. What have we become?

Okay I'm done with my crazy, paranoid ranting tirade for the week. Now let's go back to talking about Gaga. Just saying. :)
