Canada, Bitches

Hey New York, we got you cake but it'll probably last until you're ready to recognize fundamental human rights

I made this the day New York’s Senate voted down their equal marriage bill, then forgot about it. California’s law is actually not too unjust but they got downgraded for Prop 8. Yeah, that’s right, taking away minority rights by referendum is extra uncool, Rhode Island.

Anyway, yes we’re being total jerks in Copenhagen, and yes our government did dismantle the Court Challenges Program which helped fund the Charter cases which eventually led to equal marriage, but we have equal marriage in this country. And that’s golden.

Note: Most of the graphics I post are vector graphics, which means I can scale them up or down to any resolution. If you like something I made and you need it in a certain size, just ask and I’ll try to get it to you.

Dear friends,

Please do something with the name Yeats Infection – gaellic metal, memescape strategy game, a book of zombie poetry, a meditative poem, anything.

Thank you.

Love, Senning

People are Pretty Great

people are pretty great

From time to time, I get obsessed with the Dawkins humanist bus ads, the ones that read “There’s probably no god, so stop worrying and enjoy your life.” And that’s great, and fair enough, but there’s more to humanism, isn’t there? Of course there is: humans are pretty awesome, normally. We like to launch things and probe things and discuss things, and out of that we get new pictures, new data, new ideas. Us! Slow, fleshy, awkward things who can’t survive three days in the winter without whisky and comforters! Every person around you is part of a species that knows how to build the LHC and mille-feuille and e.e. cummings!

All those people sitting beside you on the subway are humans. Do you see what I’m saying? What I’m saying is that these people are capable of ridiculous things. Right beside you! That person is a human! Turn your head! Go, turn your head and say hi!
