This is an Amazing Wonder Woman.
Oh sweet Jesus. NEW FAVORITE WONDER WOMAN. O_<
this goes up there with that Jack cosplay.
Holy crap. This puts paid to all the unimaginative twerps who said that a Wonder Woman costume could never look fucking badass.
Those last two pics? YES PLEASE.
So much love for this set of costume choices. Then again, I am the girl who would STILL be wearing Wonder Woman Underoos if I could get them in adult sizes… Seriously.
Still plenty of work to do… SOPA wasn’t the first and it won’t be the last unless we make it very clear how unacceptable this sort of thing is.
This comes up in conversation on a semi-regular basis with some people. It’s rarely a good situation.
That’s a really neat hunk of graffiti…

a floor amendment — by Virginia state senator Janet Howell (D-Fairfax) — to a bill that would require women to have an ultrasound before undergoing an abortion. (“I just think we should have a little gender equity here,” Howell said.)
I am so very all for this.

This is very important stuff. Everyone who’s online or cares about the power of free speech that it allows, needs to understand how and why SOPA and other bills like it threaten pretty much everything.

It appears that SOPA sponsor Rep. Lamar Smith has decided that his best strategy continues to be to ignore any and all criticism of SOPA and pretend that none of it “is legitimate.” That’s kinda funny since we’ve shown, in great detail, where many of the problems in the bill are (see here,here and here for example — all of which cite specific language from the bill). And yet, according to Smith:
“The criticism of this bill is completely hypothetical; none of it is based in reality,” Smith said in a statement to Roll Call. “Not one of the critics was able to point to any language in the bill that would in any way harm the Internet. Their accusations are simply not supported by any facts.”
We’ve done exactly what he’s claimed we haven’t — as have numerous other parties, including famed Constitutional scholar Laurence Tribe, who also cited specific language in the bill. Ditto with former DHS Assistant Secretary, Stewart Baker, who also cited language from the billabout how SOPA will cause significant security problems for the internet. It makes you wonder: just who does Lamar Smith think he’s fooling?
Yeah… it’s kind a like this. Click through, read the whole thing.
Earlier generations have weathered recessions, of course; this stall we’re in has the look of something nastier. Social Security and Medicare are going to be diminished, at best. Hours worked are up even as hiring staggers along: Blood from a stone looks to be the normal order of things “going…
This whole thing is bigger and more diverse than a lot of people seem to think. It’s not just a bunch of listless losers who want a handout. It’s not just troublemakers who want to shake things up for the hell of it.
It’s people like the guy here in the picture who believe (or used to believe) that they could get a fair shot at making something awesome here in the U.S. (You know, the same reason people from all over the world have always been beating down the door—or sneaking in through a window—to get into this country.)
But what we’ve seen again and again, especially over the last 30 years or so, is that unless you’re willing (and able) to break the rules, to take advantage of those less fortunate than you, you’re not really going to get to live that dream most of the time. Even worse, if you do manage to get there, through hard work and kindness, you’re not going to get a lot of help if things go pear shaped.
Two groups in this country get a lot of press and a lot of help: those who have nothing and those who have everything. There’s always been a disparity there, but there’s also often been a nice, healthy buffer in the middle. The Middle Class.
That buffer is going away and that’s going to cause serious problems all around.
Occupy Wall Street is just the start of that.

Despite what some people want to think, Occupy Wall Street isn’t all pissy hipsters and 4chan kids.
