Pay-per-Post: Adsense

Okay, so it seems like “everyone” is talking about the “Death of Adsense” and what that means to the general public.(Just Google it if you don’t believe me.) I’ve used Adsense in the past and although it was meant to be user friendly…. well, it wasn’t. Comparitively, Pay-per-Post actually allows me to make money and it’s free to join and all that good stuff. Maybe you all should ditch Adsense (no offense, Google; I love Gmail and your web search functions) and get PAID for a change.

I was named Surge on Jon’s Facebook group, The Justice League. I am happy.

A little about Surge, from Wikipedia:

Surge (Noriko “Nori” Ashida) is a fictional character, a mutant in the Marvel Universe, one of the student body in the Xavier Institute, and a member of the former New Mutants squad therein. She maintained her powers post M-Day and is the leader of the New X-Men. She first appeared in New Mutants (volume 2) #8.

And Electric Blue, a fanlisting. More pictures of Surge here and here.

Very NOT cool AT ALL.

Anti-homosexual protesters taunt service in remembrance of 9/11 crash in Pennsylvania

SHANKSVILLE, Pa. (CNN) — Anti-homosexual protesters from Kansas staged a demonstration and shouted as people gathered here Monday to remember United Flight 93 that crashed on Sept. 11.

Around a dozen demonstrators from the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kan., held up signs saying, Thank God for 9/11 and taunted family members and others attending a service of remembrance, saying the crash resulted from America’s tolerance of homosexuals.

The demonstrators were kept about 400 yards from the service by Pennsylvania State Troopers. (Posted 10:11 a.m.)

****
[info]kelaina says it best (and I quote):

*screams*
If you want to protest, have the motherfucking decency to NOT do it today!
I cannot believe the appallingly bad taste here.

These assholes show up at a memorial service for 9/11 and TAUNT the mourners, saying “Thank GOD for 9/11, because America tolerates the gayness?”

What. the. FUCK?

Excuse me while my head spontaneously COMBUSTS, you raging ignoramuses!
September’s 11th had NOTHING to do with homosexuality, dear GOD, these people are insane!
Don’t think homosexuality is right? Fine by me.
Want to protest against it? Go for it, that’s what the First Amendment is for.
But by all that’s holy, have the decency to do it TOMORROW.
Today is a time for Remembrance AND MOURNING.

Part of the reason I haven’t mentioned 9/11 at all today is because 1) I really don’t care to remember, kthanx, and 2) I don’t want to break down. So I was just going to remain silent.

But NO! Assholes of the largest degree decided to taunt mourners, jeer at those who want to remember, and throw homosexuality on the plate like it’s a sacrifice!

Stupid fucking morons. Get the hell off the planet before I kill you all.
