Challenge #3

In your own space, Scream Into the Void. Get it all out. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I know Snowflake is sunshine and rainbows and singing from the rooftops all the lovely and brilliant that is being in a fandom. But, let’s be honest. Sometimes--like with other things--there are sucky parts, heartbreak parts and just plain UGH parts. Rather than holding onto those slights and resentments, or burying them and pretending they don’t exist, just to have them slowly and almost imperceptibly seep into the rest of the challenges this month, why don’t we just let it all out?

For those of us who celebrate Festivus for the rest of us, this will be familiar. We call it “Airing of Grievances” and it is actually very satisfying, whether you do it tongue in cheek, get introspective or just literally scream.


Warning: Here there be dragons.

That wasn't the original title of this article. But allow me to elucidate ...

[livejournal.com profile] my_partner_doug pointed me to this epic little rant n a comic.  No further context is required.  It's pretty much pure vulgarity, so if that's not your thing, no clickie.  If you want some inspiration for those occasions when humanity outrages you, however, here it is.  I've added the last word to my lexicon.

Opinionation is a new webcomic with an editorial slant, by [livejournal.com profile] wbm.  It is quite pointed, as editorial cartoons often are; there is no padding on the sharp corners. It's not for the faint of heart, containing both vulgarity and political criticism.  Excellent line art -- it reminds me of some classic strips and frames I studied in history classes.

I found this article recently:

CEO Pay Is Nobody's Business but Shareholders'
Washington, D.C., February 11, 2009--In a new article just published on Businessweek.com, Dr. Yaron Brook, executive director of the Ayn Rand Center for Individual Rights, argues against the idea that our government should dictate CEO pay to America's companies. According to Dr. Brook, "Shareholders have a moral right to pay whatever they judge necessary to attract, retain, and motivate talented leaders."
