Whether you like Richard Dawkins or not, listening to him read poorly constructed hate mail with a sophisticated British accent is pretty amusing. EDIT - What the hell, why can't I embed it?

The Rarity music for Fighting is Magic has been released.

Did anyone else see this and think the exact same thing I did?

I got it. The single player is a bit less than what I was expecting, but the multi is as fun as it's ever been in the series.

I'm talking about the PAL more than the kids, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were soon being held accountable for their actions.

You reap what you sow. You might as well be asking me to feel sympathy for the Westboro Baptist Church.

It is really disgusting how tiny groups full of loudmouthed bigots can have that much sway. Now that the article's out there, these people deserve whatever harassment they get as a result. Let's see how they like it.

I believe it's referring to the controversy on whether conservative employers should be required to provide birth control via health plans.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I like this song.

But that's not what happened, not even close. Ellen's private life is just that. I've seen her show enough times to know that if it wasn't already common knowledge, you'd never know that she's gay. It's not something she plays up and it's not her defining trait. People can shop wherever they want, but there is no reason to fire her when she hasn't done anything to anyone.

Fluttermacs be hatin'.

I can't believe we're still having to worry about people being fired for being gay. It is 2012. There is no fucking excuse. Fortunately, those types seem to be in the minority now.

SOON...

How are the analogs?

Dash looks pretty happy for a pegasus with no wings.

This isn't really a scientific statement but I tend to feel that given how easy it is for straight people to get married (Vegas) and how hard it is for gay people to get married, it doesn't make sense to question the connection or commitment of gay people when they're willing to go to this much trouble to get married. Even if hetero marriage and gay marriage are like apples and oranges...well, apples and oranges are both pretty good, aren't they? Plus, while I'm not saying gay couples love each other more than all straight couples, I AM saying that a lot of gay couples probably love each other more than SOME straight couples who nobody tried to stop from getting married. Is anybody really going to try to claim with a straight face that the marriages of Dennis Rodman or Kim Kardashian were sacred? I'm betting that even the priest who presided over the ceremonies was secretly thinking "I give it a year."

Equestria has video games. That pleases me.

New episode was leaked early. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lc9JyGK0qCI

I'm torn on the Vita. As a system, I think it looks great. Hardware-wise, I'm loving it. But the 3G is pretty much worthless, the PSN store price difference is laughable, and memory cards cost too fucking much. I'm still gonna get one, but it's becoming harder to overlook these shortcomings now that I know that downloading digitally saves you no more money than buying used. I really was hoping that Sony was going to be smart about this one.

I do think getting directly involved with another war is just too much for us right now, but we could still be doing more than absolutely nothing.
