Two new cases in Spain of potentially fatal Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever

Yet another tick borne illness…and this one is pretty mean. If we’re looking for species to drive into extinction, how about fleas, ticks and mosquitoes? I’m pretty sure the world will survive just fine without them, and we’d eliminate so many potential disease vectors…zika, west Nile, Lyme’s, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, malaria, the plague, THIS, and more.

Boulder Commits To Going 100 Percent Renewable – ThinkProgress

This should be the standard for every city and community in the country. If one city can do it, we all can. Why are we accepting less than AWESOME? The more we convert to renewables, the sooner we have truly affordable energy to fuel REAL economic growth again. Cheap Energy = Economic Growth #MakeAmericaGrowAgain

Right-wing people are happier with their sex lives, survey finds

I wonder if they surveyed anyone who wasn’t a fucking wingjob?
I’m sure though that the uptight, repressed and religious DEEPLY enjoy their once a month missionary minute…at least the ones that aren’t chasing little boys in choir robes. ~jg

Did Michele Bachmann just predict the death of American democracy if Hillary Clinton wins?

Does it matter? Hasn’t American Democracy been dead for quite some time? I mean…think about what you’ve seen JUST in THIS election SO FAR.
You have no real voice. You only get to vote for who they tell you you can. Just because you get TWO candidates on a ballot, doesn’t mean you live in a democracy. I mean, even Putin always runs against SOMEONE. In our case, we just have 2 Dictatorship Parties, who manufacture rules to pervert democracy as fast as they manufacture “the Truth”.
