Internet Justice

This is certainly one of the reasons I really, really love the Internet.

First, read this: Dying 7-Year-Old Girl Taunted by Neighbors

Summary: A little girl is dying of Huntington's disease. Her own mother also recently died from the same condition at age 24. Their neighbors are posting images of the girl and her mother in the arms of the Grim Reaper, putting their faces in place of skulls, etc. and posting the crap on Facebook. Also, they have a coffin displayed in the back of their pick-up truck (for Halloween, they claim) and have been driving it up and down the street since before the mother's death.

And because the Internet allows word of this appalling behavior to spread far beyond the bounds of Detroit, it shows up on places like FARK; meanwhile, 4chan dispenses great justice, and Reddit organizes donations and support for the victim's family.

While the denizens of the 'net might not have the power to stop death (yet), they sure as hell can put apply the power of the human response to tragedy and injustice in a way we never could before.

Oh, and somebody's helping via Twitter, too. >:D

So I Have This Sister

...and she sent me this:

Which isn't really my style. But she also sent me this:

Which makes Sugimoto Kousuke my newest favorite jishuseisakusha.

...and this randomly appeared in the tall grass, but it fled before I could get my pokeballs out:

Anigifferous III

Two oldies I need to get off this machine:

And a slew of new love off an LP thread from FARK:

final line as the guy flies away: "I AM DOLE MAN!"

Hellyeah. X3

Stupid People Are For Fun

Stupid people make for great entertainment:

But did you know that you can also have fun with racists? It's true!

Just add water.

Wat ho.

AND now I know where this and this originally came from: Li Wei, a photographer in China. I still don't know exactly how he sets up his shots, but I imagine it involves some extremely well-timed acrobatics and a fast camera. And probably Photoshop, though I'd like to imagine not.

Tetris

...with a Contra intro, apparently.

Something Awful, meanwhile, is consistently something fantastic.

Still Mad
