That "evil empire"

I’m so tired of moral-equivalency bullshit. Do any of these people realize that the Japanese didn’t surrender until after the second of their cities was destroyed by a nuclear bomb?

Back-to-back status updates on my Facebook newsfeed from this afternoon:
Don’t tell me I need to broaden my horizons, liberal bitches. Among my family and friends, I got it covered. :)
Steve Jones is tired of reading about the quiz you took, the flower you gave, the cause you support (and think I should too!) and whatever the hell it is you did on Mob Wars.
Thank God they’re tackling the important issues.
I hate the BCS as much as the next guy. But I like to fool myself into thinking our legislators are spending every waking moment focused on the living nightmare that is the U.S. economy. You know—sort of like the rest of the adult population (except for the moments we distract ourselves with sports, TV, music, sex, compulsive gambling, etc.).
At this point it’s nothing short of embarrassing. I’ve gone pretty much four months without any activity on the blog. I’d planned to shift to Wordpress, but pulling all the previous posts from all of the previous sites became time-consuming. So things fell apart.
I’m no longer sure what I want this blog to be. Wait—that’s not true. I want it to be something that attracts readers because readers find it worth their time and effort. But now that every topic known to man is covered by multiple blogs, I’m not sure what the appeal would be to keep coming back to this tiny corner of the Internet.
Your thoughts? That is, if there’s anyone else left.
A great friend of mine, Eddie, has been kind enough to host this blog for the last couple of years. But I’m thinking about moving to WordPress so I can (1) have all my old posts on one blog and (2) have more control over widgets, images, etc. The guy is raising two kids and tackling a whole new level of responsibilities in a bigwig job in D.C., so I can’t exactly expect him to drop what he’s doing to tinker with this modest venture. Stay tuned.
