So, Facebook is at the center of controversy yet again.  This time, not specifically for it’s privacy settings at the present… but more so for it’s privacy settings in the past.  A web-pirate named Ron Bowes had designed a code that downloaded every single bit of information that was (at the time he ran the code) public.  He put that information into a downloadable file and posted it online.  So, no matter how you set your security settings today, whatever they were at that time will be reflected in your information what is available to download.  That’s what’s up.

Here’s what I think about it.  “I don’t give a shit.”  I’ve never really been worried about my information on Facebook because I’ve never posted anything about myself worth compromising.  I’ve never had my address or Phone Number posted anywhere.  And when my college e-mail address login expired, I set up a whole new alternate e-mail address just for Facebook… because e-mail is free and I felt like doing it.  I never check that e-mail as it is just for Facebook.  So, if people are spamming it or giving it out, it makes no difference to me.

That doesn’t really leave much for public-view.  Now, if people are sooooo determined to find out the fact that my interests include Buffy the Vampire Slayer & Harry Potter, I just find that to be a horrible waste of time.  But kudos for taking an interest!

Here’s my advice to you, Facebooker:  Don’t post anything on Facebook that you might one day be ashamed of.  Ie. Phone Numbers, Addresses, Active E-mails, etc.  And while we’re on the subject:  Keep your “pucker face,” “nude,” & “drunk-mess” pictures away from the digital world.  We will find them and sell them for profit… then your children will find them years (or months, depending on how easily you settle) down the road and they will have a lot more awkward questions for you.

I realize that, right now, some of you have the “oh shit” look on your face because you’ve just now realized that you haven’t detagged yourself from those pictures in Vegas and you’ve just applied for a job at a well-to-do Marketing firm. Well… Best of Luck!

p.s. Can’t wait to see the movie!”

If you have been watching the television, I am sure you have seen the misleading proposition ads being blasted over the magic cable wires. One of the most dishonest and disingenuous ads is from PG&E themselves, having the balls to mask a monopolistic power grab as a chance for voters to “vote” on what money their government spends. In actuality, the bill would require a 2/3rds vote in order for local governments to purchase their own renewable energy or create public power districts with tax payer money. This bill was placed on the ballot by PG&E and is designed to keep them in power above all else. If you have forgotten the escapades of PG&E, try to recall the nightmare of corruption and incompetence that caused wandering black outs in the state for several months at a time.

It is usually easy to figure out which propositions are good or bad. If the California Chamber of Commerce supports the bill, vote against it.

So, I didn’t follow American Idol this season, or really any season before this one, but I know enough about the show to see when it’s dead on arrival. First of all, the season had no exciting or outgoing singers, everyone looked like they were singing for a commercial about Valium and hairy armpits. The female singer, Barbara Stanwick, or whatever her name was, was the best singer of the two, so I have no idea how that chubby hottie won.

I have a thing for slightly attractive chubby guys, shut up.

I have questionable taste in men.

Ok I will admit that in the picture above he looks like he just got done saying, “I did run out of toilet paper, so I just used my shirt and pieces of  my beard instead.  I am pretty sure we’re all good.”

As my mom and I watched all of the back patting and horribly written jokes, we couldn’t stop laughing in horror at just how bad the show was getting. I won’t even go into detail about how horribly Lee sang his victory song. He turned a Coldplay song into a melody that could have been played over cat pornography, with the intention of getting cats to “le fuck.” I will give him some leniency, considering he was probably overwhelmed that he had just beaten out Jewel as the winner, but still. Suck it up!

The highlight of the night!? The end. However Janet did make an appearance and she was enjoyable. I love me some Janet, even if it looked like her butt was stung by a hive of bees. Bees with jungle fever.

I get flack all the time for being an outsider of sorts among my gay friends and the community as a whole. To be honest, I find a large part of what is considered “gay culture” to be crap. I don’t mean crap as in something old and useless that can be thrown away, I mean actual shit. I am such a dick.

I remember when Keisha came out and sang that really popular song about smelling and what not, so many of my gay friends were falling over themselves with awe. There is one thing I have noticed among these types of performances, the sluttier, the trashier, the more of an overt sexual train wreck, the better. Often times, the media in question doesn’t even have to be produced well or have a lot of quality put into it, the mere presence of a gay person or gay theme grants it an instant pass. I am sure at this point you are wondering why I even care and to that I have 3 words.

“Gay themed films”

They are, for the most part, GOD AWFUL. Not just painfully bad, but horribly written and revolve around nothing more than ass, sex and, the ever unique “Gay man with a swish and a come back for everything.” I am sure some of you are thinking, “But Justice, that’s you.” All I have to say in response is “That’s hateful and I don’t have a swish, I am just as funny as a mediocre Jewish writer.” Take that intolerance! The point is that these movies are so god awful and tacky, it is offensive to even consider them films. It’s sort of like BET, in the sense that making a film based on one thing only (race or sexuality) makes for crappy story telling and a one dimensional character. There are some enjoyable and well produced films that fall into the “gay themed” pile, Billy’s Hollywood Screen Kiss and Shelter, being two of them.

So that brings us to the materials in question today. I present to you the following videos and I will let you be the judge on how well they are executed.

First – Christinimina Magulemera

Christina is a talented singer, she doesn’t need to keep pushing the whore get up. I can understand the desire to dress as a plastic sailor and get spanked, I have been to WeHo, but Jesus. This entire song is just horrible, like going on a blind date only to arrive and find out the person you are meeting is 45 lbs heavier and 10 years older than they told you, horrible… oh and they are Chinese. It also doesn’t help that the video is trying to be a Lady Gage joint. When this was posted on a few gay blogs, the gays ate it up! I don’t know if you have ever heard a lisp over the Internet, but there were so many “awesomes” given out to this video that it sounded like….. well I can’t think of anything witty, it was just really lispy.

Second – Attack of the slap

This guy is a sign language interpretor and I have to say I respect his career choice. Spending your time to learn sign language and help others is an honorable thing to do, that being said, having a big heart doesn’t mean you can create this and be above criticism. Watch this video and ask yourself the entire time, “Why does love make the world fall down down down and what can we do to stop it? Or more so, what can we do to stop this video?” Not only is the song really bland and heavily over produced, but what is the point of singing, if you aren’t going to… sing? I can judge this video without remorse because I don’t need to be able to sing to do so, considering this person did not sing either.  Say it with me aspiring singers… “If you need Auto Tune to produce your hit CD, it’s time to check out refrigeration repair at Devry University.”

It also doesn’t help that the video is shot badly and the “story” is awkward and uncomfortable to watch. I have lived in this town for most of my life and I have never seen people walk around with “hate” above their heads. And you know I’ve looked.

I have never thought, “I bet a deaf person would really enjoy this song” before.  Also, who would have ever guessed that homophobia could be confronted with a sassy slap to the nose. Take that intolerance!

Final – Marriage-shake

Sean seems like a really nice guy and his message has good intentions. He is involved in a lot of gay rights groups and has his own channel devoted to the happenings of the gay political community. However…. dear god what is this? A parody of the famous (and no longer hip or popular) “Milkshake” song, sung to the lyrics of… gay marriage… I guess? I will give him credit for actually singing the song, as opposed to Helen Keller up there, but the lyrics in this song are so preposterous it almost makes me want to go to the other side. I mean, the lyrics don’t even match the tune of the song and they feel forced the entire time, not to mention the glaringly awkward vehcile they are delivered in. I am thankful we were spared a video to go along with this, as I can only vaguely imagine twinks drinking milkshakes and then breaking down into some tacky sex dance while wearing wedding dresses. On second thought…. that could be kinda of awesome.

So, until next time my little puppets, remember. Just because it involves gay-ness, doesn’t mean it gets a free pass. Seriously though, these videos are horrible. Take that intolerance!

Now, don’t correct me if I’m wrong, but this new law would be a lot like carrying your ID with you at all times, right?  From what I can tell, I would liken it to a bartender carding someone at the bar when they’ve already been carded at the door.  Yes, it’s a hassle, but at the end of the day it should take just a few additional moments. The reason the bartender is carding you a second time is because you look like you are breaking a law (buying alcohol under 21 years of age.) Just don’t be caught without your papers.  “I left my green card in my other wallet” won’t really cover your ass in this situation.

Now, I for one am fine with this law in this context.  However, the problem is that this matter is not as simple as “you look too young.”   It’s a matter of “you look like a wetback.”  There really is no nice way to put it because that’s the sort of door this opens.  It’s a lot like the “at-random” bag searches at the airports after 9/11.  Anytime they were called in, Citizens of Middle-Eastern descent felt that they were being targeted for acts of violence done by people of their same ethnic background… and in some ways, they were.

I am American.  I come from a family of Mexican descent … and have never even actually been to Mexico.  I would have no qualms about being asked for my papers if they were trying to target Illegal Mexicans in a Border State.  I just think that seems like more work for them than it’s worth.

What worries me personally is that there are those out there that hate just to hate.  These people are called racists, sexists, homophobes, etc., and I can think of a few other things to call them.  I have experienced my share of racism and profiling:  from having to sneak around with a girl I was dating back in high school because her parents didn’t want her to date me because I’m “Mexican” to surprising people who don’t know me with my ability to read and write big words… in English.

I just don’t want to be out walking down a street with a bag of oranges and suddenly get pulled up alongside by a pick-up truck full of rednecks who have decided that this is a good day to have gotten boozed up and “Help Our Country” by beating the crap out of me.  If this can be avoided… that would be awesome.  Yay for not bleeding!

To those who may be flirting with this idea, to assist you in spotting Me and other Mexicans, I’ve provided the following checklist:

• We will most likely be wearing a sombrero, a poncho, chanclas (sandals), and denim shorts… that used to be denim jeans.
• We will also have tattoos of any combination of a teardrop, the Virgin Guadalupe, or the colors Red White & Green.
• Around our necks, you’ll find Selena concert tickets that we’ve had bronzed and attached to a chain.
• We will have brown skin, smell of fajitas, be carrying a bag of oranges or gum, and be surrounded by at least 11 children that are dressed in a similar fashion.

I hope this helps!
