Here is this week’s list of blog posts, videos and other tidbits from my favourite corners of the web.
Discrimination Against the Long-Term Unemployed. Sad.
What Makes Sex Good? So it’s spring and once again street preachers are asking strangers what I consider extremely personal questions. Not everyone considers the topic of religion to be a private matter, of course, but I’ve often wondered how they would react if I started asking them for a detailed description of their sex lives. Would they realize I was making a point about the (in)appropriateness of certain topics when meeting someone new? Eh, probably not. 😉
Lady Magazine. To be honest these kind of magazines all but satirize themselves. It’s still a funny picture, though.
The Red Ball Project. Because our world needs more whimsy.
President Obama On Trayvon Martin’s death (if you haven’t heard of Trayvon Martin the link does explains his death in more detail):
My main message is to the parents of Trayvon Martin. You know, if I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon. And you know, I think they are right to expect that all of us as Americans are going to take this with the seriousness it deserves and that we’re get to the bottom of exactly what happened.
Interesting speech:
