Faced with hefty operating costs, the foundation building the 9/11 museum at the World Trade Center has decided to charge an admission fee of $20 to $25 when the site opens next year. The exact cost of the mandatory fee has not yet been decided.

Foundation officials had considered an optional donation but rejected the idea.

“We decided that it’s more fiscally prudent to have a straight ticket charge,” Daniels said.

This is fucking repulsive. This should this be owned by all Americans, and any donations should be optional.

If this foundation makes a single dime over the operating costs of the memorial, it all better go to the victims’ families.

I work at Bowling Green Metalforming, from 10:30pm to 6:35am!

It’s time to get pissed. The U.S. law that would turn Google, Facebook, and Twitter into legally immune government spies just passed the House.

We expected CISPA to pass; that’s why this spring, we’re going to organize the largest online privacy protest in history to make sure CISPA is gone for good.

And, in response to Rep. Mike Rogers’ accusation that CISPA opponents are just “14 year-old tweeter[s] in the basement”, we thought we’d also challenge Rep. Rogers to get on live national television and debate a 14 year-old in a basement on CISPA. The search for the 14 year-old begins. Are you or do you know a 14 year-old who could totally school a congressman on this issue?

This bill affects everyone — not just U.S. citizens. Anyone with a Facebook account could now have their data shipped directly to the U.S. government. That’s why Internet users overwhelmingly oppose this bill. Over 1.5 million people signed petitions against it. But Congress didn’t listen.

Does this remind you of something? Yep, this is the exact position we were in with SOPA last year. Then the Internet rose up and we made history with the SOPA strike.

Join the largest online privacy protest in history to make sure CISPA goes the same route as SOPA and doesn’t become the law that breaks the 4th Amendment. Are you in?

CISPA threatens our most basic rights. Privacy is important not just for our security but for our rights to freedom of expression. The giant tech companies that stood with Internet users against SOPA are not going to help us this time (but some of the large sites like Mozilla, Imgur, and Reddit are all against CISPA and we love them).

Only a massive grassroots outcry will stop this bill. We’re starting to build the tools. But we need your help.

Can you share the flyer below on social media? And tell everyone you know to sign up to join the protest?

The internet has turned out to be one of the worst inventions in the history of mankind, simply because of the sheer number of idiots who inhabit it.

An opinion does not a fact make, and yet look at the things that are happening to people with differing opinions. People are receiving death and rape threats and having their lives doxxed because they disagree with the views of someone else. And this shit’s encouraged among the internet community.

Hiding behind anonymity is no longer a cowardly action. When the fuck did that happen?

Newsflash, people: Anonymous is a terrorist organization, and following in their footsteps makes you terrorists too.

Moo?

I was watching “Legend of the Overfiend” yesterday with my girlfriend, so I am going to be fucked in a variety of ways.

>///>;

I’m currently working my way through Naruto. (I’m HATING that the torrent file has the NA dub from Cartoon Network for the early episodes, but hold out hope that it will end up swapping out to subs later in the series.) I can live with this. :D

Last anime I watched was the second Evangelion remake movie. Yeah, I’m pretty fucked.

Walking into traffic might be the easiest…

If only I’d had internets on Valentine’s…

Funny how some songs seem to hit the emotional nail on the proverbial head.
