Sometimes I wish someone like China would just steamroll into Syria and end the misery there. It just doesn't seem to end >_>

Sometimes you can't pick who your allies don't like. Sometimes they fight each other naturally, but both don't care for your main enemy.

The New York Times has a story today about a Twitter-bot named "Rep. Eliza Turing" who has a husband Harold ("Hal") Turing. Eliza tweets by conjoining sections of tweets from pro-Clinton sources with mixed results.

Giant Twitter image!

The anime RD Sennou Choshitsu ("Real Drive") paid tribute to ELIZA and her creator, computer scientist and philosopher Joseph Weizenbaum, by including a virtual character named "Eliza Weizenbaum."

Nice to see how deeply Hollywood cares about intellectual property
rights ........



Hollywood Agents Sharing Pirated Copies of CAA Book:

"Hollywood agents and studio executives are too cheap to shell out
$20 for a copy of “Powerhouse,” the new oral history of Creative Artists
Agency that’s the talk of the entertainment industry.

Instead, PDF copies of the 752-page tome have been circulating
around Los Angeles and its environs, sources tell Variety. It’s an ironic
move given that many of the same people enjoying the purloined
copies of the book are vocally outraged about piracy … at least when it
comes to movies and television."

Philippines president calls Barack Obama
'son of a whore':


"The president of the Philippines has escalated his campaign of obscene
abuse at perceived opponents, foreign and domestic, by calling Barack
Obama a “son of a whore”.

Rodrigo Duterte warned the US president to keep off the subject of
extrajudicial killings in his country’s brutal drug war when they meet on
Tuesday at a regional summit in Laos, telling a press conference that
Obama “must be respectful”."

Shopping Mall Ad Mix-Up “Showcased An H-Doujin!”:

"A Ukranian shopping mall has recently come under fire from ostensibly
upset visitors due the store’s advertisement-bearing plasma screens
being altered to display an appalling H-doujinshi that has been assumed
to be the work of a prankster who managed to hijack the system."

Whoa, that's rich coming from a man who openly has a mistress, doesn't mind wanting to cheat with another man's wife and wishing he raped a foreign woman first before she was raped and murdered.

THIS. I don't know how much more his supporters will defend his actions.

You know what's even worse about what he's doing? He's helping people associate political will with being an utter scumbag, and this will have heavy repercussions on the next election or when the Prez gets the boot.

Seeing how overwhelming majority of philipines still support him I think it reflects more on the country as a whole than on he himself....

Pretty much. They say they wanted change, but they refuse to change themselves. Discipline is still on a low, and corruption still exists in other forms like red tape and using the national budget to force alliances.

I'm just patiently waiting for the moment where Do Dirty's actions are actually acted upon.

Obama cancels meeting with Philippines' Duterte after insult

Instead, Obama now plans to meet later on Tuesday with South Korean President Park Geun-hye, said Ned Price, spokesman for the White House National Security Council - a meeting where the response to North Korea's latest missile tests is expected to be on the agenda.
I wonder how much damage that guy will manage to do to the Philippine, both at home and abroad.

Watching the actual news item he doesn't actually call Obama as such. The term "putang ina" is more of a colloquial term to denote frustration in the Filipino context and not necessarily directed to the person in question. You kind of need to live here to know what it means. I personally use it but I'm not calling anyone a son of a whore.

Duterte supporters and detractors of course are going to have a field day with this.

^ Well, that too.

It's like calling someone "shit" and translating it in mother tongue as "fecal matter".

It's more disconcerting how a mass electorate can in this current day...can vote someone into power solely on the premise of mass butchering others as an easy solution....and still support it even when it's clearly getting out of hand
