The Slumber Party Manifesto
(As Americans brace themselves for another big Election Day, Omega-Level is proud to offer its services to a new political party, designed by Argey Fontes and Andrew Mercier (our very own Eduardo Pluto, sans pseudonym): The Slumber Party. Here is its extensive manifesto. TL;DR: Party on.)
America is faced with a widespread contagion—the Great Yawn. Millions of people across this country have contracted it already and the numbers are rising. During this critical time in the nation’s history, two-party politics has become exceptionally polarizing, when partisans thwart necessary reform and others are too complacent with the status quo. Nothing changes substantially except the ever-growing gap. Proposals from one side are quickly dismantled or disregarded by the other. The only reciprocity that crosses the divide is yawning, brought on by fatigue and tedium. Meanwhile, those whose allegiances are not to these party lines try their best to stay removed, but many cannot for long. Watching from the outskirts, they become disillusioned by the dysfunction, turned off by the whole process, and are then similarly caught by the outbreak.

South Carolina Lieutenant Governor Buys PlayStation With Campaign Money; Resigns. Can’t A Man Relax?
South Carolina Lt. Governor Ken Ard has probably carved your ass up in Killswitch 3: The Franchise Caff Will Never Play. Or at least that’s how I imagine it. You see, our boy Ard spent a good amount of campaign money on some techno-gadgets, and now his ass has gone and resigned.
Video: Neil deGrasse Tyson Spits Hot Fire About US Budget And The Death of Dreaming.
Because I’m a hippy liberal who watches Bill Maher while kissing my transgender significant other and eating organic cashews, I already saw this last Friday. If you’re a more balanced person and you don’t watch the show, you still need to see this rant of Neil deGrasse Tyson. Provided you love space and our continually diminishing focus on it saddens you.
It’s an epic rant.
U.S. Citizen Facing Jail Time In Canada For Manga On His Computer.
There’s a U.S citizen in jail in Canada right now because he was caught with manga on laptop. The same citizen is also being forced to register as a sex offender. When did America’s Top Hat turn into a bunch of fucking fascists?
‘Banksy of Bulgaria’ Turns Statues of Russian Soldiers Into Superheroes.
There’s a good lad with the nickname Banksy of Bulgaria. Said Bulgarian Banksy recently turned “Russian Red Army soldiers from a monument in the city of Sofia, in Bulgaria, into popular superheroes and cartoon characters.”
Pretty rad, if I suppose, vandalistic stuff.
Hit the jump for pictures and details.
