I moved to Paris in late August of 2011. That is all.

What happens when you breed a society of consumers who are appreciated for and needed for nothing else? You tell them to buy all this shit that you make and they give you their money so they can have those things. Then they are broke and when they try to get an education to pay [...]

What is happening in London should be a HUGE warning sign for the US. That will happen here very soon if something isn’t done to fix the geometrically worsening income gap. It will happen and people will wonder why they didn’t see it coming… just like all the financial bubbles… just like 9/11. Just like [...]

Roosevelt grew the government to create jobs because the public sector wasn’t doing it. He raised taxes on corporations to help pay for that. Obama’s doing the opposite, even though he knows Roosevelt did it right.

America, the “home of the free,” has a higher percentage of its population in prison than any other country- including all those non free enemies of freedom. We suck.

Corporations are not patriotic. They have no national allegiance and their only goal is profit. Therefore, when corporations are given control over our government via politicians, these politicians become treasonous.

UPDATE: just found out about this: http://www.dataliberation.org/ Just to let you know- while google finally did reinstate my gmail account late Saturday, they did not fully reinstate my google plus account. They re-enabled my account only to the extent that I can log into it but I cannot post anything at all. This is of [...]

unpostable last google+ post

UPDATE: google+ would not allow this to be posted, ironically enough. This will be my last post on Google+. This morning google cancelled my account for an unspecified TOS violation. This would have been upsetting but not the end of the world. What was the end of the world, however, was that they also disabled [...]

google can and will shut your gmail down whenever they want without notice. happened to me today

Google deactivated and blocked access to my bloatedlesbianjew@gmail account which i have used since 2005. I also use it to sign on to gplus, which i suspect has something to do with it being blocked. Google has been blocking “fake” profiles which mine is not but many have claimed it is. I give a fuck [...]

So the gang of six wants to DECREASE corporate taxes AGAIN while taking away the tax deduction for mortgage interest payments. What a fucking scam: hurt the people who are already on the verge of foreclosure by making them pay higher taxes. THIS IS OBSCENE! THINK ABOUT IT! I’m not helping Obama this time around. [...]

I think today’s seniors are the last generation who will be able to retire. In American we barely have healthcare, have no mandatory vacation, and soon we won’t be able to retire. This is freedom.

Rupert Murdoch used to be good looking only a few decades ago. Now he is as ugly as an out of control external cancer tumor. He wears his evil on his face. He can’t hide that much evil.

OK so Google+ is nice I guess, but it’s just making the problem worse: If I have something I want to share, I have to do more and more things to accomplish that, depending on what kind of a thought it is: Twitter, Facebook, Google+, etc. SOcial networking is getting too messy for me. It [...]

here are some notes I took while editing a scene for a client just to give you an idea… UPDATE: To be fair I need to tell you about one feature of FCPx that I love: the new video scopes are amazing and better than I have seen on any other NLE. fcp x no [...]

Europe talks about avoiding global financial collapse but austerity IS global financial collapse for most people and the media buys into the idea that global financial collapse for RICH PEOPLE is the only collapse that means anything. It’s all based on the idea that trickle-down economics works. It does not. It’s like there are two [...]

Just to let you know so you don’t have to spend hours searching for this like I did: You cannot do audio only transitions in FCPX. There is a work around: via @hdedition on Twitter hdedition: @bloatedlesbian Use two seperate Audio layers and indiivdually cross fade the end/beginning of each one. Need workarounds at this [...]

Some things are really fucking obvious, but in America that just means Fox News has more work to do. In a for-profit healthcare system, such as the one we have now, private insurance companies only insure people with whom they can earn a profit. Therefore, they will not insure high-risk customers. In such a situation [...]

Let me get this straight: Anthony Weiner started a campaign to force Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from the Health Care case because his wife gave $150k to the anti-Obamacare lobbyists. Within days a scandal erupted surrounding his clothed penis being tweeted to assume girl. He has now resigned. I have not heard about Clarence [...]

This is absolutely stunning. This is the official republican jobs plan. Just read it. It’s a fucking children’s book filled with a giant font and huge full page PICTURES- not even useful power-point type graphs but junky clip art. In other words, FILLER! What an insult to the American people. Republicans take over the house [...]

I’m so embarrassed that I as Madge Weinstein used to don a Godaddy tank top to advertise their services. I used to have my own discount codes which my long term audience knows were very very annoying to listen to. Because of this I feel the need to un-recommend Godaddy. If you don’t know why, [...]
