Vice photo tour of the creation museum.
“Once you pay the entrance fee (an infuriating $22), you get to see this gem: a model of a little girl (who looks A LOT like a young Tracy Emin) just chillin’ by a stream with her adorable animal friends. As well as DESTROYING the myth that humans and dinosaurs and squirrels never co-existed, it also does serious damage to two other left-wing lies: that velociraptors were carnivorous, and that polyester was invented in the 30s.”

“Some simple, moving words from Andrew Sullivan, in response to the National Review’s Rich Lowry:
Rich says that it’s no big deal to live hiding one’s sexual orientation. If you’re straight, try it for one day. Try never mentioning your spouse, your family, your home, your girlfriend or boyfriend to anyone you know or work with – just for one day. Take that photo off your desk at work, change the pronoun you use for your spouse to the opposite gender, guard everything you might say or do so that no one could know you’re straight, shut the door in your office if you have a personal conversation if it might come up.
Try it. Now imagine doing it for a lifetime. It’s crippling; it warps your mind; it destroys your self-esteem.”
