THAT’S THE MESSAGE YOU WANT TO PASS ON?!? Please excuse me as I weep for the human race. These guys are GENIUSES and all they came up with was that song? You want to give the next life form on this planet a message from our race and you sing them a song from a ride with anamatronic dolls dressed up in stereotypical garb from countries around the world? Somehow I feel like there are better ways of representing these seven continents to the future. Let’s just hope “intelligent” is a term to be used lightly with this next life form and they think we were so awesome.On a different note, maybe Walt Disney’s frozen corpse will be the only thing remaining om the earth and this new life form will have the technology to bring him back and the only way they have to communicate is through that song and once Walt realizes what has happened he’s gonna be like “Changed my mind. Kill me. My life really is complete now; I just needed to see this.”Man, do I get weird at 2 in the morning.

Historic Latino Gang Truce

A truce between two of the largest street gangs in the world went into effect this week. M-S-13 and 18th street signed a peace accord earlier this month in the capital of El Salvador. Representatives from both gangs said the truce was a gesture of good will for the people of El Salvador at a time when the country has been ravaged by crime and violence.
In Los Angeles, dozens of gang interventionists and current and former gang members gathered to lend their support for the peace process.

Pacifica’s Ernesto Arce files this report from Los Angeles.

Listening to this right now. Important. 

born in L.A. i’m not a gangbanger, and my familia is from mexico not el salvador, but this still fills me with pride. it demonstrates more love and integrity than do many other “legitimate” factions of power in today’s world. 

THIS IS BIG!

Oh, man. All the kids getting ready for Bonnaroo. I’m so distraught. I remember that feeling of expectation and preparation all too well. It was glorious. And now I’m seeing it all over Tumblr and it makes me so sad.

I think I must have a homing device that activates whenever I have a particularly pleasurable experience and I must return to those places forever. I still feel aches in my chest for choir camp and for New Mexico and other places.
