An alarming portion of Americans support such discriminatory policies against refugees and Muslim immigrants. We spoke to David Bier, an immigration policy analyst at the Cato Institute — an American libertarian think tank — and Robert McKenzie, a Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institute, to shed light on five key misconceptions used by anti-immigration proponents to stoke fear of Muslims among the American people.

Chelsea Manning has only 10 days to secure 62k more signatures on her petition for the commutation of her sentence and release. please take a moment to sign. you do NOT have to be american to sign the petition.

like not to be negative but yr not gonna get someone’s sentence overturned or commuted with a whitehouse.org petition

Chelsea Manning’s legal team filed for a formal commutation of her sentence on November 14th. you can read the full application here. while the petition is not the sole basis for her release, it is being used to expedite the process of assessing her eligibility for commutation while obama is still in office and the acting president. 

comments like this are not only a little irritating but they’re also just totally misinformed. like political prisoners rely on petitions a lot to gain local, national and eventually international support and have been effective in the past in expediting their release process. this defeatist “nothing will ever change oh well” attitude is such a waste of time and kind of pretentious. like i can understand the cynicism and pessimism–but it would be worthwhile to recognize that there is no better time than right now to campaign for her release. this is the most optimal time period to apply pressure to the obama admin to commute her sentence. sign the petition.

good concept for a video game: a pvp game where one person (or perhaps a group of players) play as wildlife photographers

and another person (or group of players) play as a sasquatch(es)

and its basically hide n seek with the wildlife photographers having to take candid photos of these sasquatches

players are awarded points for how good the photos are / how long they’ve hidden from photographers 

the name of the game is Sasquatchenating but theres always room for better titles

also some more ideas to this concept

  • the sasquatches in the game are peaceful creatures so they won’t fight back. they eat berries and mushrooms, not babies

  • when i say they wont fight back, that doesn’t include throwing dirt or sand or mud at the humans to escape to cover

  • the game is focused around being stealthy for both sides, one for sneaking up on sasquatches and one for sneaking away from photographers

  • makeshift traps to catch a ‘squatch/inconvenience a photographer

  • hats

  • different types of cameras, from polaroid, to digital, to eventually just running around backwards tryna take a selfie with sasquatch

can other cryptids be unlockable btw like at the very least Mothman and a Chupacabra

I need this so bad
