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 - - - - - - - - - - -

Facebook In Real Life

We've become so ingrained in social media, that we tend to forget how we communicate in real life.  Well, this man decides to take Facebook to the people - to the people.

He walks around asking people if they wouldn't mind being his friend, even going so far as to suggesting they take a look at his photo album to help them decide.  In what is an absolutely funny take of the social behavior he has learned from Facebook and Twitter, the video below is the perfect example of who, and what we've become.

I especially love when he goes around posting "like" on different items by using post-it notes.

Yeah, facebook, twitter and all the rest of them are all just not for me. I honestly think that it's just a way to get attention, be annoying and intrusive while opening up your personal life to the world and many people that you have truly no idea who they really are. I participate at times mostly because of my love's blog, which I honestly do love, and for posting things from Gaga to gay rights and so on. I just don't like to tell strangers what I'm doing or what I feel like this second or where I'm going this evening. With the current breakthroughs of amazing technology our lives are so impersonal as it is. Why intentionally make it even worse?

I have organized my blogs with 3 days worth of postings, so if you wish to continue reading the days before that, and so forth and so forth, you can click the "Older Posts" button /\ /\ /\ right /\ up there.

There are 3 other ways you can find interesting topics to read as well.

*Clicking on any of the links under my "Favorite Categories" section on the left hand side of your screen

*Using the Google Search bar under the scrolling text.

*By choosing a date from the drop down list on the right hand side of your screen.


Hope you enjoy my daily posts, and hope to hear from you soon.
