The Elder God Cthulhu, created by HP Lovecraft in 1928 and expanded upon by his friend, August Derleth over the next three decades is entrenched in our literature, popular culture, and very psyches.
The tentacular devourer of souls is even a credible political candidate for those who are tired of voting for the lesser of evils.
Now artist Marcelo Gallego shows us that the Great Old One, Cthulhu is for Valentine's Day as well.
According to Fox News' commentator Juan Williams, Americans and American values are just racist and every single one of the GOP candidates is using dog-whistle for racist epithets.
They All Be Racists! They All Juz Be Dog-Whistling
This is an odd attitude for a man who lost his job for speaking honestly when that honesty didn't align with his previous Liberal masters' anti-American agenda.
Russian strawberries must be different - and better - than American strawberries because I've never seen this reaction to our strawberries.
Glamor Is For Fools. Vitamins Are For People
Growing up in central Florida, however, I have seen and been on the receiving end of treatment much like that shown by the babushka in this hilarious Russian juice commercial. The difference being that the farmers and growers in Florida loaded rock salt and could actually hit what they were aiming at. 8-O
A man is alone dining in a fancy restaurant and there is an absolutely gorgeous redhead sitting at the next table. He has been quietly checking her out since he sat down, but lacks the nerve to talk with her.
Suddenly the redhead sneezes, and her glass eye comes flying out of its socket toward the man. He reflexively reaches out, grabs it out of the air, and hands it back to her.
"Oh my, I am so sorry," the woman says with embarrassment as she pops her eye back in place.
"Let me buy your dinner to make it up to you," she says...
As several people including Jennifer at Order in the Quart! have informed me, it took under a week for Komen For The Cure to capitulate to the baby killers' screaming and reinstate funding to America's number one abortion mill, Planned Parenthood. So the abortionists won this round and proved to themselves that they had enough useful idiots to enforce their anti-life agenda.
One the brighter side, approx. 1500 poor women per year will be able to be referred by Planned Parenthood to breast cancer screaming service providers.
For those Americans who understand that abortion is the murder of the most helpless and only guaranteed innocents in the world - and who are actually against it even if childbearing inconveniences some females, Komen's rapid capitulation to the abortionists in painful and maddening. There are, however, other points to consider in this matter.
If the long-running, vicious attacks upon Sarah Palin and her daughters weren't proof enough that, when distilled down to their raison d'etre, Feminism - note the capital "F" - is Abortion and nothing else, their immediate attacks upon Susan G. Komen for the Cure for ceasing funding of Planned Parenthood in the wake of recent Congressional investigations into the nationwide chain of abortion mills should do it.
The Feminists or, at least, those who publicly define the movement will willingly throw any other plank of their platform on trash heap along with scalded and dismembered corpses of their murdered unborn children in order to further their ability to kill their unborn children at any time for any or no reason at all.
Star Wars is definitely one of the most successful Sci-Fi franchises in history despite george Lucas' apparent attempt to sabotage his own creation - Episodes I, II, and III anyone? :cry:
One of many indications of of Star Wars' lasting success is the quantity and quality of fan art surrounding it, especially those that skillfully transpose Star Wars onto other genres.

Seii Taishōgun Palpatin's Bakufu
Digital artist Clinton Felker provides us with a stunning series of Star Wars fan art depicting Boba Fett, Darth Vader, and a Stormtrooper as feudal Japanese warriors.
Much like the cries of racism and complaint about ad hominem attacks, recently we've been hearing a lot of cries for civility in political discourse. There's a certain subset of the residents within America's borders who want a more polite and staid approach to deciding the course of America.
It seems that politics has gotten too raw and real for some people.
This, of course, begs three related questions: who are these people crying for increased civility, what is it that they actually want, and why do they want it so much?
You hear a lot of people, mostly Liberals and Progressives, whining about supposed ad hominem attacks. They just don't, from what I can see, have a firm grasp on what that term means.
Ad Hominem
A Hominem ( Latin for "to the man" ) is short for argumentum ad hominem, a logical fallacy that is an attempt to negate the validity of a claim by pointing out a negative characteristic or belief of the person supporting it.
While Leftists of all sorts do get abused regularly be citizens of the Civilized World, especially Americans, I see only a small minority of the occurrences being truly argumentum ad hominem.
Despite how much and how stridently the Liberals and Progressives claim that Americans want to revise history, it they who are not only forgetting history but demanding that it be forgotten. Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set [...]
