Welcome to The Cahokian... A thousand years ago Cahokia — across the Mississippi from what is now St. Louis — was one of the biggest cities in the world. Now it's an empty green spot next to the highway. I'm a middle-aged gay man living in New York City, center of the world, future footnote on somebody's future map. Welcome to the new world.

Catholic Students think hate crimes are funny
This horrifying cartoon actually appeared in The Observer, newspaper of the Catholic Church's Notre Dame University. Thanks to Pam's House Blend for publicizing this. Here's what it says:
Panel 1: "What's the easiest way to turn a fruit into a vegetable?"
Panel 2: "No idea."
Panel 3: "A baseball bat."
Yes, that is them laughing at the idea of beating gays with baseball bats. Their editorial staff has somehow apologized. Just like the Catholic church has apologized for raping all those children. Somehow it still goes on.
update: here's the actual cartoon.
