Iran’s terrorist president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad states the following about capitalism: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told a U.N.

I myself have just deleted various blog posts and modified others that mention or link to Wikipedia, and intend to avoid discussing the site in the future. Mentioning or linking to Wikipedia (or Wikimedia Commons, or any [...]

There have been a lot of posts (and political lobbying) within the past few years by a dying Media 1.0 establishment and a gullible public to discourage the creation and reading of blogs, this time by encouraging Twitter and Facebook as replacements for blogs. Examples: 1 2 3 4 Rather than go on a standard [...]

All of it. Photos, likes, “friends”, groups, info, even my name. Then I deleted (not deactivated) the account. In other words, everything I could get rid of, I did. Now it’s gone. I feel a sort of emptiness inside, though I’m sure it’ll pass as it didn’t make a damn difference. It’s like a new [...]

Got the domain name, one of the programs finished, one on the way, and one soon to come. I just deleted Mob Wars from my Facebook. There’s a Mob Wars and a Mafia Wars. The latter is more famous. And you just don’t have the time. I’ve been getting back to offline, single-player games lately. [...]
