Now They Want to Take Away the 8-Hour Day and 40-Hour Week →
In the midst of a deepening jobs crisis, Republicans are proposing legislation that kills the only law that creates employment.
The fact that this is even proposed legislation deeply frightens me. I’m so sick of the rich just thinking they can push whoever they want around. Stand up for workers rights people!

NBA's Jason Collins decides to come out →
NBA center Jason Collins announced that he’s gay in a story for Sports Illustrated, becoming the first active player in a major American team sport to announce that he is gay.
This is awesome! The culture of sports is often hyper-masculine that honesty with one’s self is almost impossible. Jason Collins, you are an extremely brave individual and I give you props for simply being you.

Pokemon Snap U
What is it?: Pokemon Snap is a simple game from the days of Nintendo 64. The gameplay is basic; you are on a cart that follows a pre-determined path. While traveling this path you have a limited amount of film and you are tasked with capturing as many great shots of Pokemon in their natural habitat as possible. You have a few items with you that you can use to interact with the Pokemon, but your main goal is the photography.
Why it should exist: An HD remake of Snap seems like a perfect fit for Nintendo’s new Wii U console. The gamepad could be used as a physical camera replicating a viewfinder on the touchscreen. It makes sense. Nintendo owns the rights to Pokemon merchandise and they could likely program this title in a couple of months (a little bit would go a long way).
What I would like to see: I would like to see the game take on a less structured approach than its predecessor. Using the built in gyroscope to look around would free up the analog sticks to use for movement of the cart or craft. This opens up the possibility of multiple paths to choose and possibly a complete off-road adventure.
Other Possibilities: With the popularity of photo apps on smartphones and touch devices, Nintendo could join forces to make this game interactive outside of the console. Partnering with Instagram, for instance, they could add an upload feature to share your best shots with your friends. They could also partner with Nikon or Canon to offer in-game replications of various lenses and have an advanced mode where you have to take time to switch between them to get the shot.

I’m caught between “want” and “the Wii U will never have anything this good”.

Mental illness isn’t a fucking contest of who’s got it worse if you’re depressed and then you go and tell someone also suffering from depression that their reasons aren’t good enough or they haven’t been dealing with it for long enough you need to go and sit in the fucking corner like the petty 5-year-old you are.
