		<title>Good Ol&#8217; Video</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, haven&#8217;t gotten around to updating in a while. My heads&#8217; been submerged in books for the better part of a semester. In the mean time, here&#8217;s a cool vid. It&#8217;s been out for a while now but I haven&#8217;t gotten around to posting it. Ta-dah!

As is always, I&#8217;m looking for stuff to post about [...]]]></description>

		<title>America=Freedom=Happiness=Want=Suffering</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Maybe it&#8217;s that philosophy class that&#8217;s growing on me. Maybe it&#8217;s the fact that I&#8217;ve had to read Brave New World in another class. Maybe it&#8217;s because of a thoughtful post at a fellow blogger put up. And maybe it&#8217;s my own frustrations of living with A.D.D. that are starting to pile on high enough [...]]]></description>

		<title>What do corporations do?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You know, despite the fact that 99% of youtube is acts of teenage stupidity, there&#8217;s rare&#8230;um..gems? Is gems really the right word? Well, shiny rocks, amidst the rubble. Here ya go.

Very basic premise. Corporations&#8217; only function is to make money. They may masquerade it in as many fancy awards to the community as they can, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Apparently It&#8217;s Been Slow-Down Week</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over at Adbusters they&#8217;re at it again, pushing for to make another national holiday for introspection and taking control of your lives. All of your lives. Your multiple lives. That you personally own. It&#8217;s called &#8220;Slow Down Week&#8221;, and encourages people to be aware of how they spend their time and whether it&#8217;s really what [...]]]></description>

		<title>Move Your Money</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While slightly off topic, I feel obligated to post this. The obvious recklessness, egotism and gluttony going on inside the largest banks in America is too hard for me to ignore. I saw this video that reminded me of what I think America was once like. But I&#8217;m just a college kid, so what do [...]]]></description>

		<title>Comcast Merger with NBC &#8211; Congressional Hearings Feb. 4th</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you haven&#8217;t heard by now, for about two months now Comcast has been talking about buying up NBC from GE. Actually, it&#8217;s not just talk. They actually are going to go through with it. I have good reasons to suspect that the more consolidated the media market is, the more reasons we have to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Really? I hope people don&#8217;t buy this</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Shout outs to Cooper B. for sending this to me. Lookadis.

&#8220;For over one hundred years, we&#8217;ve been scrunching and folding toilet paper. Finally there&#8217;s a better way!&#8221;
Really. I personally use bark and thistle bushes when I do my business and it&#8217;s pretty darn inconvenient. Please, tell me more.

		<title>Supreme Court Upholds Californian Restrictions on Billboard Placement</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Oh, Supreme Court&#8230;I have have no clue what you guys are playing at. What you give to the public with one hand, you take away with the other. Three days after their ruling to screw over American voters, the Supreme Court decided not to challenge a lower court&#8217;s ruling that California can have sections of [...]]]></description>

		<title>TV makes you stupid (What else is new?)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a fantastic article over at Clean Cut Media  about how TV makes you stupid, specifically children. Childrens&#8217; minds are more malleable compared to adult minds, and what they see on TV dramatically shapes them. Children in between the ages of 8 and 18 spend an average of 6 hours 21 minutes interacting with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Action: What ELSE could I be angry about on a day like today?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You probably have heard it from other people. Maybe. If they&#8217;ve got a single brain cell working or not. If not, let me spell it out for you: American elections have officially been round up, taken out back, shot and then sold to the highest bidder. The Supreme Court ruled today that corporations and unions [...]]]></description>
