if this video is not spread, this woman will die.
if this video is spread, there is a chance justice shall be served.
PLEASE WATCH THIS AND SHARE IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR COUNTRY. Do you know all those ads on TV telling you the Gulf Coast is safe? Do you know those BP commercials telling you they care about their employees, that they’ve cleaned up the spill? Well, here’s a video of a woman who was a one of the thousands of clean-up crew members…
Her body is now degenerating rapidly. She’s lost feeling in her right arm, and severe neurological/nerve damage is starting to cause uncontrollable facial twitching. Her fellow clean-up crew friends are dying. This is heartbreaking and will make you sick to your stomach, but we all need to demand the media and government and BP acknowledge the true horror of this situation. This is your opportunity to use the Internet (and Tumblr) to impact the world. Look at the Middle-East, and think how much more powerful we as Internet-users are in America because of our guaranteed access to these digital tools.
If EVERY person on Tumblr who saw this (yes, you) reblogged and posted it on facebook, it will become a huge, national news story.
This is not a “I should reblog because I’ll feel bad if I don’t” sort of thing. This is a serious fucking reblog and I swear to god if none of you reblog it I am going on an unfollowing spree. I don’t care how many followers I fucking lose. She says in the video “They’re gonna let us die.” And she’s right. They are just letting them die. I am so fucking sick of this government and secrets and everything. Fucking reblog.
rjldfdh i saw this a while ago, this is so horrible.
this is so awful
everyone deserves the medical treatment needed to save their lives, the fact that she has kids and she knows she’s going to die because people are to bone idol to help the people who helped them, it’s vile
Imagine you’re a viable GOP candidate. Your options are:
- Sit out the 2012 election and prepare for 2016 when there isn’t an incumbent, your party’s political environment has calmed down, and you’ll have a much better chance of winning the general election.
- Bet everything on a longshot bid.1
The probable candidates running in 2012 either mistakenly believe they’ll sink that half-court shot2, realize they won’t be remotely viable in 2016,3 don’t expect to win but think they might be able to draw attention a specific issue,4 or think they can raise their national profile.5The probable candidates running in 2012 either mistakenly believe they’ll sink that half-court shot[^2], realize they won’t be remotely viable in 2016,[^3] don’t expect to win but think they might be able to draw attention a specific issue,[^4] or think they can raise their national profile.[^5] It’s nearly April 2011—and we still don’t have a good grip on who’s in and who’s out. In January 2007, I wrote this piece which completely failed to identify the winners6 but successfully identified all the front-runners. There could also be a set of others who realize how soft the field is and think that them might actually have a chance this year.7
So which pair would be most viable in the general election? This is sort of like voting for high-school superlatives. The guy chosen as “most likely to be President” is still extremely unlikely to be President. I’ll go with Romney/Cain. Romney can speak credibly about the economy. Cain can speak credibly about business and can appease the crazy conservatives.

This isn’t quite the right sports metaphor, but I’m not very good with sports metaphors. Is there a sport where you jump to near-certan death clutching an American flag in one hand and your junk in the other? That’s the sport I mean. ↩

This is Palin, if she runs. I don’t think she will. It might also be Tim Pawlenty. ↩

Romney, Giuliani. ↩

Santorum, Paul, Paul, Bolton. ↩

Trump, Bachmann ↩

You can also find this piece by doing a google search for “Congratulations President Giuliani.” I may be the only guy who made that prediction and hasn’t gotten around to scrubbing the Internet of the failure. ↩

Barbour! Godfather Cain. ↩

I completely forgot about my old MyFitnessPal user…I only used it once or twice about a year ago. I logged onto the account today and I think I’m going to start using it again, the site seems very nifty!
When you pass by the bitches
When the cute guy at school talks to you
When your teacher’s being an asshole/bitch
When you’re in math class
When your teacher yells at you for getting something wrong
When it’s lunch time
When that one kid in your class tries to back talk you
When people are making racist comments in class
When that one girl thinks she’s hella fly & shit, but really isn’t
When your teacher tells the class you don’t have homework tonight
Add more if desired.

The official US trailer for Hayao Miyazaki’s ’Ponyo’
Disney has released the official US trailer for Hayao Miyazaki’s latest animated film, ‘Ponyo’ (or as it’s known in Japan ‘Ponyo on the Cliff’. ‘Ponyo’ is also written and directed by the legendary Hayao Miyazaki who directed such films as ‘Castle in the Sky’, ‘My Neighbor Totoro’, ‘Princess Mononoke’, ‘Spirited Away’, and ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’.
The official plot synopsis for ‘Ponyo’ is listed as “An animated adventure centered on a 5-year-old boy and his relationship with a goldfish princess who longs to become human.”
This film features the voice talents Frankie Jonas, Cate Blanchett, Matt Damon, Tina Fey, Cloris Leachman, Liam Neeson, Lily Tomlin and Betty White.
‘Ponyo’ is scheduled to hit theaters on August 14th.
I’m already in love with this film, August 14th can’t come soon enough.
I wish so hard that they would just release this in theaters in Japanese with subtitles. I won’t see it in English, I totally refuse! I just can’t enjoy it. SORRY FRANKIE
Why would you not see it because of me? I did nothing to hurt you :( My brothers say that I only hurt people when I talk to them for periods longer than 5 minutes and I do not remember ever speaking to you :(
It’s not a good day in Frankieland. :( :( :( :(
