Photobucket


Here I collect beautiful, interesting, vulgar things that I believe to be worth remembering. Sometimes documenting things to do with me and the beautiful people in my life. I believe in the power of art, movement, freedom, music, laughter and travel.

Photo reblogged from The Daily What with 23,798 notes

thedailywhat: Infographic of the Day: According to ProPublica, which is tracking opposition to and support for SOPA and PIPA among members of Congress, yesterday’s blackout managed to persuade many politicians to come out against the Internet killing bills. As hope-affirming as that is, it’s important to note that support for PIPA remains strong in the Senate, where those in favor of the bill outnumber those opposed by almost 2 to 1. As mentioned yesterday, another interesting oft-ignored fact is that there is far more support for both bills among Democrats than Republicans. In the Senate, over two-thirds of all supporters are Democrats. The blackout made a difference, but PIPA could still pass, and a procedural test vote is expected next week. Appreciate the accomplishment, but don’t mistake regrouping for retreat. Take action. [propublica / newsweek.]
