You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
...You know, last winter still feels very recent to me, somehow. Even more so than last spring, though that doesn't make sense.

"Men worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, "Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?" Revelation 13:4 (NIV)
Samuel L. Jackson: "That would be ME, mother fucker!" *ejects from jet that he set on a collision course with the beast.*

Anonus is the cutest
There is a good chance I will literally drive to school and immediately drive back, because I need to turn in my first design project but I don't have the supplies yet for my second one
Okay, just heard a blurb about the Wikipedia blackout on WTOP. This is big; WTOP has a captive market of hundreds of thousands of people stuck in their cars, plus many of those same people listening on FM radios or online in their offices. That and most of those people are hillrats or Executive Branch workers...
All this reminds me of the protests against COPA (which would have done pretty much the same thing, but for different reasons) back in 1998-1999.
Also, I just heard an ad for Comcast (I refuse to call it "Xfinity"), and the scenario is someone switching back from FiOS because they didn't like the On-Demand service.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA grasping at straws much, Comcast?
We left Comcast because, well, FiOS is cheaper and more reliable. In a world where there's Netflix, YouTueb and Amazon VOD, I don't think the on-demand service is going to make us switch back. :P
I think at thi s point they're trying to use SOPA to their advantage because if it passes (unlikely as all hell really.) It will give greater reason tow ant On Demand.
Tnu: Well, that's also ignoring the fact that most people get the cable and Internet service together. If they wanted to be dicks and block all services except their own VOD system, they could, but they'd also get sued into the ground for anti-trust violations.
I just wrote one of my Senators. I'm not sure what good it'll do, but I figured it was worth a try.
Today really is am azing. It's lik e a mass information blackout you know? Giving peole an understanding of what this legislation could do and it's scary.

"A cult dedicated to preventing the apocalypse would probably be like a D&D adventuring party or something."
That's what I kinda thought.
I think the issue is most people join these fringe groups because they're tired or angry with the world as it is. Caring enough about the status quo that you don't want to see things change doesn't really require more effort than voting conservative or attempting to help keep thing the same by getting laws passed that maintain the status quo...
There you go, The Republican Party is your anti-Apocalypse cult. :P
These cultists seem really schizophrenic in their attitudes to the end of the world. Half of the time they're all "OH NO THE ANTICHRIST" when they're supposed to want the apocalypse that the Antichrist is meant to herald.
*A Tucson television station's broadcast of the Super Bowl on Sunday was interrupted for some viewers by about 10 seconds of pornographic material, the station said*
Things like this will happen more and more. Satan takes control of people's hands and makes them press the wrong buttons.
So Satan's evil plan is to show us porn? Some ultimate enemy.

He'd come up with something better, but even Satan was ill prepared for just how much porn we'd have on the internet.
"These cultists seem really schizophrenic in their attitudes to the end of the world. Half of the time they're all "OH NO THE ANTICHRIST" when they're supposed to want the apocalypse that the Antichrist is meant to herald."
Wanting to see the Antichrist coming and beat the hell out of him might count as wanting to stop the apocalypse. I mean, Rapture is a pretty good deal for those involved, but Revelations is a world of suck.

Haven: That's not really a cult, just a group. A cult has to have special rituals and symbols and whatnot.
